#Hiraeth arise
#Eclipse my mind
Suspend me in a #soporific state

Sanitized, incised and #sutured
Each stitch expected
To #dissolve without a #trace

And yet
I still feel the #scar
See the #pallor of your face

a scar dissolved in pallor may eclipse a fresh cut wound

My son — where he loved to watch the sunset

4 in 1 day for me…

Me
Standing over
You lying there
Cremation casket
Your #pallor off
#sutured from autopsy
Your beautiful, beautiful face
I couldn’t stop touching you
Afraid the merest #trace
Of your being
Would be negated
Saying goodbye
#eclipsed all

💔❤️‍🩹💔
🤟🏼 here, there, and everywhere

Lis sniffed her glass & sighed.
'I thought asking for a glass of house red would be safe.'
Jay glanced around the bar where customers & staff had matching #pallor & black outfits.
'Really? In a vampire bar?'

Watching my guest
disconcerted by his #pallor
I offered him a drink
Without my seeing him move
He was sitting again
His fangs still out
He picked up
A napkin dabbing
At his lips
Two small
Red stains
On the white cloth
I touched my neck
Damp—warm—red
His color was back
I am a warm host

“When a hero falls”

Pallor flesh marked cruelly,
wicked scars on every limb,
like delicate lines on a map,
a record of paths once traveled,
so while he lays lifeless on the slab,
his adventures might linger.

every joy #cut with a tear
his eyes seared with transience
liquid lenses warping reality
leaving only approximations
of happiness; boneless blobs
floating silently in periphery
a #pallor of discontent cast
over desperately wanting skies
this toxic air ripe for breathing

pallor scars
lines of despair
cut to the bone

These are some of my memories about #raves in the UK back in the day.

In winter,
When I don't venture from my hearth,
My skin loses colour.
I take on an unhealthy #pallor.
But during that period,
Every #scar, every single one of the countless healed lacerations,
Becomes apparent.
Almost purple in colour.
My life, played out in technicolour.
#vss365

How many scars
will you cause
to your self,
falling off
my flight
to the highs?

You can see it
Through the #pallor
Of my face;
A broken heart with
So many #scars that can't be #sutured..

Lead grips my arms.
Jelly numbs my legs.
Pallor hits my face.
Gravity draws my insides.
Pain stabs my heart.
A body in revolt.
The truth,
Too much to bear.

"Remember the fashionable #pallor from the 1700s?"

"Oh yes. Those were the times. Those were the times."

"Indeed. More blood?"

"Please."

#VSS365

A #pallor of cold
The way you crafted your words
calculated spite
Ice-muse lined up already
Everything disposable..

i wear the #pallor of the moon
when my heart starts to swoon
for another’s soul.
my heart never learns, you see;
and, according to my history -
neither do i.

Thanks for illuminating the many shades of #pallor: from the hush of grief to the glow of resilience,
from haunted silences to moonlit memories.

Your words made stillness speak and absence ache, revealing beauty even in the faded.

Hot flushed
mid-sleep pallor —
Puddled playfield
for pixies &
monsters
where we —
captive players

Cherry tree in bloom

Persistently,
the dirt is loving my feet
The sun washes away my pallor
My fingernails keep record
of this crazy
love affair.
Ten black sickle moons
I am happy.

The freezer hums, a deceptive lullaby. Door opens. A white expanse. Empty. Where the vibrant tubs should be, only frost clings to the plastic shelves. A hollowness blooms in the chest. A sudden pallor creeps over the late-night craving. The spoon, still clutched, feels heavy. Silence. A profound + sugary silence.

Here is today's poem called "Tonight"
#poetry #poem #vss365 #prompt #poetsofbluesky #writing #pallor

your #pallor is fitting to the arena; #dress while we #talk. Forget he's your childhood #friend, treat as deadliest #enemy. Don't just #match his attacks

It is a #contest of wills

your will must dominate his

my inheritance at stake

Spoiled fruit
Pinches black with rot
Where worms writhe
Deep into the sagging belly
Of sweetness —
But in sickness
There’s no reprieve
Just fatigue
And sticky heat
#Pallor that rubs thin
The tinge, keeping the cheeks
Plump and healthy,
And sleep that drapes
Its heavy sigh —
Unwilling panacea

In
a moment of truth
his silence cast a #pallor
o'er their evening
his hand grew cold
as she pulled away

All ashes
become dust
what was once love
flakes brown
like rusted trust

Then fades away...

Found a fallen pear
stemless and shriveled and brown
reached down pulled it
from the ground
sunk his teeth in
looked into the #pallor
like the paleness of his skin
it was fibrous and sallow
and a worm had gone through
but it had sweetness
and to him it was good
#vss365 #poem

We bear witness to injustice
and cannot call its name.
I see the #pallor,
and I will not call it light.
