Another year, another Valentine's day alone
Guardian of twin blades
Precise cut ballerina,
With each indecisive cut
It's a verse cut from me.
Paper, blank canvas
Waiting to be expressed in words.
However, it's cut
By the guardian of twin blades.
Separated by lines of pain,
The paper sheds tears of euphoria.
Moments later,
The paper wanders through the garden of thorns.
With every sigh there's a petal that falls,
The wind carries him across the garden, weighing down more and more.
The shadows of the trees dance around,
Reminding him of bad choices.
Paper cut, still blank canvas
Only torn and alone...
Don't turn around, the paper follows the garden's path.
The heart mourns, the mind remembers.
Why?
Twin blades, why?
Why didn't they cut him all off at once?
Gentle melancholy as he flies through the garden.
The paper thinks for himself,
If maybe I should stop suffering.
He doesn't stop
The paper punishes itself.
It's not about dying
The paper said
It's about pain
And her relief...
a poem by me lol
Can we just appreciate small poets who deserve a whole book dedicated to them?? Poets deserve to be the poem as well 💗💕
Also, love the poem!
What if I’ve paid every coin in my hand,
Yet I’m judged for debts I don’t understand?
A heart I never held beats heavy with blame,
And I’m the ghost they’ve given a name.
Did I carve my guilt in stone or steel,
Or is it a weapon I was forced to wield?
Am I cruel, sharp-edged, built to defy,
Or just a reflection of another’s lie?
Is this a sentence, written in ash,
Or a road I walk, marked by the past?
The lines blur between the truth and the crime
Am I the victim, or am I the knife?
Perhaps it’s not punishment, not fate’s decree,
But the weight of a question that’s drowning me.
What if the answer is that I’ve gone astray
Or perhaps the guilt isn’t mine to carry today?
