Frozen Facade

The bitterness of this amorous conflict
Has managed to allow my movements to become frozen
It has permitted the chambers of my soul to become solid
But yet transparent all the more
It feels as though we are intertwined together
Tangled up in this madness, trapped in time
Just a breath apart
A heartbeat away
From bliss
Yet a footstep next to disaster
My being has been permanently rested right before you
Left to gaze into your eyes
Knowing that never once will you turn
To peer into mine
Trapped within the forsaking ice
Kept captive by the daunting ways of reality
I could only yearn
That time would hold us hostage
For all of eternity
I may only wish that forever lasted longer
Than it has previously been acknowledged to
For we would never have had to face
Our closure
Your departure
My failure
Never once would we be taunted by the juvenile ways
The past selfishly offers
Stuck, still, moments stopped
Just placed there to bask in
Dangling before my eyes
Saved from the vain ticks of the clocks' hands
The fleeting hours
The pulsing memories dancing in my thoughts
For there would be nothing
Not anything at all
Simply each other
Together
Stranded alone in a sea of ecstasy - misery..

Frenzy

Ice melts
Cascades calmly down my forehead
Finds tainted salvation within my barren eyes
Forms alliances with the make up that creeps
Creeps slowly down my face
In identical nonchalant fashion
Words sprawled out across the silence
Swallowed by the white noise
Sounds, tones - sanity's opposition everywhere
Tempting, teasing, tickling my senses
As you all watch in spite of yourselves
For you are drawn to the way my heart beats in rhythm
With this chaos
How my mind ticks alongside with this catastrophe
Reality selfishly offers
Simply out of obligation, blissful perfection, total deception
Lips parted, my transparent words rapidly escaping
Emotions towards other evaporated
As if I am mocked by the hands of time
Taunted by the lucid ways of life
Watch me, the lost naive child
Pondering my mere existence
All the while becoming more fixated upon the glow of the flashing lights
Allow me to introduce myself as your fascination
I'm said to be graced heavily with brilliance, intellect, and a bit of contempt
But you will never truly understand madness
Until you slip into my skin.
