#perhaps
it takes emptiness
to draw in the full
for the breath
to seep through
for the fruit to sprout
as if
we are #seduced
by all these hollows
& by what remains unfulfilled

autumn night #wrapper
quiet rain presses the ground
pupils soak the mist
existence outlives the sight
deep breaths are the proof of fact

poetic opus
bridges meaning with the past
the end writes itself

halo of the moon
deep at the garden's bottom
enhanced solitude

between now and then
angel's feather put on hold
sign sharper than light
#vss365 #angel #haikuchallenge #feather #Melancholyverse #light #haiku
farther than her limbs
higher than her brows
she slips from the tree of flesh
an #angel moving
beyond daily steps
taken through
minutely recycled seasons
tinted by dulcet melancholy
she ascends
disrupting the web of waiting
light breaks through
from fate's deep shell
#vss365 #Melancholyverse
she is that fertile heart
a tenacious flame
mirroring the sun
just before eclipse
a fire
never fully consumed
nor extinguished
like her earth
she is seed
charm and key
unlocking the ember
in her own fragment
of eternity

waft of bitter earth
horizon cuts through ochre sight
wounds that try to heal

when you crash
into walls of flesh
blood gripping bones
with words
drowned unborn
& eyes losing their way
awaken the other gaze
the one
that #glimpses beyond
& outruns time’s solitude
its memory was already
waiting for you
carrying #nostalgia
of home

grey blades of waking
night fables dim
pretty shadows flirt
muffling
the sources of thought
the filaments of the world
slip through fingers
cities of mist swallow
a once familiar face
yet something
soft, almost holy
presses close
aching to be known

#poetry 🖼️ by Phyllis
As I lay down
many a dreams
within my dreams
I dream
many a door
within doors
do not open
I could have
#discarded them
but for the
#small wickets
which slid open
to show me a
glimpse of you
~rev

#Melancholyverse
call her #discarded
& she’ll show you
how ashes write poems
& carve names
in metamorphic stone
truth bled loud
they tried to smother it
saying it was messy
spoke even worse
reforged
in the fire
lit to erase her
she stayed sharp
now she burns
on her own terms
#Melancholyverse #poem
#blueskypoets
she wandered deep
thoughts thick as fog
steps muffled
by the weight
of what-ifs
then
a sudden pastel flicker
from butterfly wings
brushed the world’s skin
her shoulders recalled
the shape of calm
something realigned
in the delicacy
between breaths
#Melancholyverse #poetry #blueskypoets
The twelfth floor
Window ocular
The fog bellows
Dizzying lights peer
Through the veil
Left to wander
Mind to Sonder
