Racing The Dark

Clouds of essence
Racing the dark —
The nothing exhaled,
And here we are.

#vsspoem prompt for October 13th, 2024: Exhale

Casualties

Loss
Stripped clean of
Bothersome emotion —
There were casualties.




#vsspoem prompt for October 12th, 2024: Casualty

The Way The World Is

History laughs at us —
Everything ends,
Yet, we believe
We can change
The way the world is.




#vsspoem prompt for October 11th, 2024: History

The Silent Feel

The unforeseen trauma
Of primary intention —
Closed wounds that will never heal,
Pain only the silent feel.




#vsspoem prompt for October 10th, 2024: Unforeseen

The Branches We Trim

The branches we trim
And the nature we nurture
May change our path,
But never that
Of the sun.

#vsspoem prompt for October 9th, 2024: Nurture

Drawn To Fire

Not all is love —
Some are drawn
To fire
Out of an affinity
With ash.




#vsspoem prompt for October 8th, 2024: Affinity

Infant Hopes

Infant hopes,
Unrecognized,
Dreaming of the day
They'll be acknowledged,
Whispering sweet nothings
In deaf ears —
We are here,
Do not be afraid
To hold our hand
And take a stand
For what you want.

#vsspoem prompt for October 7th, 2024: Infant

Falling Behind

Wisdom comes with age?
I don't know, it's hard to say.
I've slowed down, but I don't mind —
Just know that
I've stopped playing games
That I can't play in my own time
Without falling behind.




#vsspoem prompt for October 6th, 2024: Wisdom

Comply

Comply —
What I believe,
You should too,
And I'll harass
Anyone
Who does not think
The way I do.




#vsspoem prompt for October 5th, 2024: Harass

Still Reeling

I am
Still reeling,
Thoughts stuttering,
Shards of trust littering
My every waking moment,
But I think I can tell that we —
Not yet, but eventually —
Will reach a place
That might feel
Somewhat
Okay.




#vsspoem prompt for October 4th, 2024: Stutter

Bitch-slapped

Words yanked back,
Swallowed
Mid-pronunciation,
Bitch-slapped by reason —
You'd never hear the end of this.

#vsspoem prompt for October 3rd, 2024: Yank

Abracadabra

I wish I could go
Abracadabra
And make it all okay —
I wish, I wish,
But the world's no longer
Wired that way.




#vsspoem prompt for October 2nd, 2024: Abracadabra

Grueling Detail

My heart, a map,
Heartache carved
In grueling detail —
Here be dragons,
Here be death,
But where could be
My place?




#vsspoem prompt for October 1st, 2024: Grueling

Congratulations

You took a broken dream
And made it shine —
Shards radiant,
Reflecting, refracting
A beautiful inner light.
Congratulations.
You found the meaning of life.

#vsspoem prompt for September 30th, 2024: Congratulations

An Ancient Lie

An ancient lie,
Unquestioned,
Paraded in plain sight —
We
Don't need
To be led.




#vsspoem prompt for September 29th, 2024: Parade

Days Blending

Days blending with the gray,
Enthusiasm waning —
Waving trees can't compensate
My chronic lack of sun,
Nor for the cold September rain.

#vsspoem prompt for September 28th, 2024: Enthusiasm

Sweet Goodbyes

Homecomings and sweet goodbyes,
In absence we become ourselves —
Welcome back, you have changed.
But then again, so have I.




#vsspoem prompt for September 27th, 2024: Homecoming

Gilded Dreams

Long for warmth,
Reach for cold —
Gilded dreams
Until we're old.

#vsspoem prompt for September 26th, 2024: Gilded

Ikea Sentiments

Ikea sentiments,
Assembled with prepackaged
Nuts and bolts —
Take a stock opinion
That still feels like it's
Your own.

#vsspoem prompt for September 25th, 2024: Assemble

Selfish Will

Hearts tread on
Like a shell path —
Crunch on,
Sensitivity be damned.
Where there is a selfish will,
There is always a way.




#vsspoem prompt for September 24th, 2024: Crunch
