Like the Inside of an Orange

stunning prose, blue. \"I was learning to appreciate the magic in mundane beauty, straying from the darkness which propels me into distorted motion, this unthinkable thirst, but it all fell apart. Every so often I hear a car passing by. The room is dark but I\'m sure it\'s morning. The daylight is echoing. This is a test.\" - so beautiful.

I Don\'t See What You See
L. B. Mek said:

\'You\'re acting like someone I don\'t know

Saying things I don\'t mean, with your haughty smile

My body trembles and I remember why

The sky illuminated on a dark night is more silent

Than my treacherous mind, devouring time \'

\'But our youth, our youth
was wasted

All the drinks we had, *left
thirsty desert\'s behind
All the laughs we had, *faded
in-to clown masks

Now we\'re left
with this undying, bruise
There\'s no light in us, just
a vibrant darkness

Sailing
in these rough *Time\'s
alone

Billowing o\'er clouded hills
Billowing o\'er clouded hills\'
(Brilliant!
I humbly apologise, for my rude suggestions
I meant no disrespect, dear Poet
just overzealously, sharing
how your poignantly immersive poetry
revealed itself, to me)

Quiet Observer
Garth Rakumakoe said:

An abstract narrative of intertwining shadows, telling tales bound by pictures of situational phrases to the story of me being jealous, an impulsive rapture in may ways, that spreads with the jittery birds polluting the skies. Each picture portrays a piece of me, two moons from loving you, the heart flow in the brooding night, looking for a warm and gentle embrace, I am the man on the hill, whose cigarette\'s dying weaker... So much is poured into this piece, so much mingling color, that makes it a masterpiece, diamond in the rough kinda stuff, honestly...... It reminds me why I so so much love the abstract and peculiar. A painting worth a thousand gallery walls this! - Impeccable artistic expression, absolutely magnificent! - Well done dear writer!

(please forgive my rudeness, dear Poet
for daring, to mess with your Poetic Genius
but I\'m a fool at my core
and so I couldn\'t resist
to share with you
how your brilliant words, revealed
themselves to me..
and Happy holidays)

\'I see the winter sun
wax in the milky purple, wooded
In a colossal white abyss

A child\'s face staring at me
I see it
slowly changing,
Illuminated pulse wreathe
in the turbulent flood

I am calm, almost numb.\'

\'I am blurry eyed, dancing
in the storm of indifference,
I push myself to remember
the touch of your face

A lifetime ago
when I could hear the cars at night
While you
were asleep, it all came flooding back

The ever lasting sound
of the TV in the background
The cold grey sky
falling
The spray of rain, calling out
my name

In the brume, I seen ghosts
I couldn\'t circumvent

Can\'t avoid
the feeling of dying
I cleave to it, those
blithe moments, in between \'

\'Landlocked, living with you
blue boy
singing ocean songs
Time
is the biggest mountain

Hallucinations
in a morbid desert, rustling leaves
in winter
I kick my feet, tread along
the soaked pavement \'

\'The dark crescent moonlight
fervid, in the white-hot
empyrean
Rapid tides growing
Piercing dolour fluctuating
Flaxen, fulgent beams
frolicking in nightmares

A garden blossomed
in the iris, a city of dreams
Tied to hope
with ribbons, but I\'m powerless

I allude, all the things
I can\'t evade, they see me

Dew in my mouth, lachrymose blood in my hands

I drew a picture of Heaven and seen you like an angel
Lightsome
in the translucent ivory pictures
of tomorrow\'s mind
I splash and rend
I think of myself
in the afterlife
*by your side, once again\'

Nightfall Stardust
L. B. Mek said:

\'Reading letters in candlelight
by a fiery place
Casting spells in cloudy mirrors
Looking through windows
into fraudulent realty
I hear the rain,
the night\'s music flowing

Divinity in the mind\'s prison burgeoning in hollow pits
My unshaven face, puppy eyes, red blemishes
Days without showering in this depressive gloom

Insane statues
with winter in our bodies, content hands
When we\'re stimulated
and not thinking about the future
Visions like Chromecast unearthed in our ruins
I submit to desire, everyone does
Like moths to light, controlled by impulse\'

Good work. I felt emotions I can\'t quite put my finger on, but they seem deeply rooted in the human experience. Keep it up, my friend
