i remember you, my heart whispered the first time it set its eyes on you. i must have loved you in another life, in a thousand different ways. a tenderness that stretched across timelines, across generations. a fascination that has settled in my ancient bones. a love that has brought me back to my very first love. a love i have loved before i even knew what it meant. i remember you.

Dark academia
The night is dark and full of secrets,
A place of knowledge and mystery
Where the shadows whisper secrets untold
And the moonlight casts a spell on me
The ivy-covered walls are my refuge
A place to explore and learn anew
Where I can find solace in the darkness
And discover what lies beneath the dew
The books are my companions,
my teachers Their pages filled with ancient lore
I search for answers in their wisdom To unlock the secrets of yore
The fire crackles in the hearth
As I sit and ponder life's questions My thoughts drift away to distant lands
Where knowledge is my obsession
The night is dark and full of secrets
But I'm not afraid to explore
For I know that within this darkness
Lies a world of knowledge galore.
-N.B.

a tinted love.
His hands were stained
And so were mine.
His delicate fingers
Smudged with paint,
Pale fingers colored blue
And wrists dyed red,
Those hands were made
To paint a canvas.
And as the dark crimson
Leaked through my palms,
As I held the blade in my arms,
I realized,
I could make a masterpiece too.

The pieces of all the people I've ever loved
wedged deep inside me
tearing through my arteries

A Crystal Forest
The air is blue and keen and cold,
With snow the roads and fields are white
But here the forests filled with light
And a shining sheath enrolled.
Each branch, each twig, each blade of grass,
Seems clad miraculously with glass:
Above the ice-bound streamlet bends
Each frozen fern with crystal ends.
~ William Sharp
Read by Belle in Beauty and the Beast, with the added following:
“For in that solemn silence is heard
In the whisper of every sleeping thing:
Look, look at me,
Come wake me up
For still here I’ll be.”

thank you to the poets whose words have kept me alive. those who have taught me to write, too. For there is beauty in the spaces between these syllables which makes me dream of this life.

the depression poem
The books were white pills of escape
They don’t work anymore.
The rain used to free my mind before
It’s become walls of water now.
The wind that rustled through my hair,
Sparked ideas which blossomed on ink.
The winds were dead today.
The soul that jumped at their words yesterday,
Can’t bear to lift up its head.
I don’t know anymore
Why the grin doesn’t stretch
Why flowers feel so blue
And the moon so sorrowed.
Today the worlds a hazy blur
And I’m in my own cage.
-A.M. 1/8/2022
