Literature Text
i.
i'm surprised at how easily i can break you
and leave you in the wreckage of midnight
constellations and dead stars
ii.
and your shadow crosses mine
i admire your daring, although i told you
to leave me before you burn up
we've yet to lose sight, but the distance is
enough
iii.
don't forget, i'm close behind
and i'll never let you go even if the
world detonates into a stew of
disembodied dreams and starlit memories
iv.
i'm still learning how to love
something forbidden
take care, i'll miss you
Literature
Sehnsucht
October again;
and the curtains billow
with broken glass echoes and
Mendelssohn's bride waltzing
to better times
(ein
zwei
drei)
She becomes the rain,
and breaks her own heart as the sound
drips
right through us.
Literature
softened
the sky whispers,
ribbons of crystalline quiet,
same shade as the angel dust
you shivered every time we were
alone.
in the darkness, we were
sorry birds searching for
open dawns. you, the
swan, me, the
raven,
black as night and
just as hopeful.
and there were poems
written in your skin, universes
blooming in your hands; your eyes
were a December sunrise saving me
from any sleep.
I’ve decided that
people are a composition of
all their greatest memories—and you,
you were always the most
beautiful piece of
me.
Literature
vi.
he's a beautiful chaos,
bluegray eyes and a haunted smile
that can only belong to a
stormtorn sky-
hold me in your warmth and i'll shiver

It seems like our brains are in a perpetual battle. Our instincts override our logic, and visa versa, until we really don't know what we want. Do we want love, or do we want to avoid judgement? Is the judgement real, or is it from one of the rules that don't apply anymore?
Usually, we go with our heart (I hate "heart", can we switch to a better standard? Like nose? I feel more love in my NOSE than my heart.) and as a result, our brains do a somersault. We are now contradicting that have been embedded in us since the very beginning. We are acknowledging the right thing to do, and then IGNORING it completely. How bizarre.
So we act crazy, as anything would in the process of being rewired. We push away, and we beg to stay. It's a process, and it's a tricky one too. This poem does a nice job explaining such a predicament. Good job.
Full marks because I hate star systems.
