Behind A Mirror

My feelings
Safely shielded
Behind a mirror —
I sympathize.
I didn't like
What you showed me
Either.




#vsspoem prompt for November 14th, 2024: Sympathize

How It Is

When I tell you
How it is,
That's no suggestion —
I'm afraid
I must insist.




#vsspoem prompt for November 13th, 2024: Insist

Done Playing

Aware of who I am
And what I'm not
Without illusions,
From this point on
No choice unless
I chose it —
It is just me
And I'm done playing.
This is how we're gonna do it.




#vsspoem prompt for November 12th, 2024: Unless

Sudden Exit

Through hell and high water,
For years, side by side
We traveled life’s highway
Together —
It took your recent
Sudden exit to realize
We were only ever
Parallel.

#vsspoem prompt for November 11th, 2024: Parallel

Falling Sensations

Falling sensations,
Not easier,
More distant —
The absence of reason
Once you have reached
The last degree of separation.




#vsspoem prompt for November 10th, 2024: Separation

Around The Corner

After years of trying,
I found out happiness
Lived just around the corner,
But none of it was mine.


#vsspoem prompt for November 9th, 2024: Corner

Short-term

Can't look into your head,
But can see straight into your heart,
And what I see isn't love —
It's short-term want.




#vsspoem prompt for November 9th, 2024: Straight

Stay With Me

Pain reshaped to melancholy,
Heartbreak drowned in melody —
Winds of change softly sing
You'll be alright,
Just keep up
And stay with me.




#vsspoem prompt for November 8th, 2024: Reshape

Raised On Lies

A people
Raised on lies
Won't be bothered
By a couple more.




#vsspoem prompt for November 7th, 2024: People

Carried You

Until you found
Your legs, for years,
I carried you,
And then you ran away —
Don't pretend
You did not use me.




#vsspoem prompt for November 6th, 2024: Pretend

Waiting For The Sun

Waiting for the sun,
Behind the clouds
Naught but blue.




#vsspoem prompt for November 5th, 2024: Naught

Bleeding Constants

Bleeding constants,
Lost our way —
Were it real
It would not ever
Change.

#vsspoem prompt for November 4th, 2024: Bleed

The Chill

Warmer days
Post cold war —
Can you feel
The chill
Sink in again?




#vsspoem prompt for November 3rd, 2024: Sink

Sliding Scales

Out of bounds
Within expectations,
Sliding scales of
Acceptable deviation —
Outliers became
The new normal, somehow.




#vsspoem prompt for November 2nd, 2024: Outlier

Clashing Fates

Clashing fates,
To hate and be hated,
To hurt and be hurt,
To lose and get lost —
Costs be damned,
We’ll see this through
Our way.
Righteous or not.




#vsspoem prompt for November 1st, 2024: Righteous

Into The Silence

Scream into the silence,
That the pain we drag behind us,
The hardship that defined us,
May never rise again.




#vsspoem prompt for October 31st, 2024: Hardship

Due Diligence

Due diligence
Neglected —
Opinions, perspectives,
Cemented
In the absence of facts.

#vsspoem prompt for October 30th, 2024: Diligence

All We Share

Diversity,
Our segregation,
Placing weight
On all we're not —
Celebrate all we share,
Not what sets us apart.




#vsspoem prompt for October 29th, 2024: Segregation

The Mortal Maze

Consciousness, a fantasy
Projected on the haze —
Illusions sent to navigate,
Aided to abide our days
Traveling
The mortal maze.



#vsspoem prompt for October 28th, 2024: Haze

All Ducks Aligned

All ducks aligned,
All stories straight —
All of it mine,
None of it fate.




#vsspoem prompt for October 27th, 2024: Align
