summer sunset

k1rby

birds chatter in the background,

 

conversations the human brain can never fully comprehend.

 

white noise fills up my hearing, almost choking me.

 

i lay, suffocated in the empty room.

 

nobody is here.

 

just myself and my thoughts,

 

demonic thoughts that only happen in the dead of night. 

 

outside, the sky glows with gorgeous shades of orange and pink,

 

out of place in this dreary world.

 

the skies above are too good for humankind.

 

we don't deserve their angelic beauty.

    'demonic thoughts'
    go easy on yourself, dear poet
    because others won't...
    and that sky, just like us
    is fallible
    while most of us trip and fall
    at times, even act a little cruel
    sky
    vengefully, unleashes
    storms and flash floods
    on poor unsuspecting towns
    cos
    its clouds had to climb over a mountain or two...
    lol
    but really, we're all
    just doing what we can
    leave the 'convenient' demons
    to those tall, fantasy
    and horror tales
    just do you, forgiveness
    of self
    and acceptance of circumstance
    goes a long way
    to sweetening, our life's gifted
    breath..
    stay Strong! thanks for sharing
