the all-encompassing essence of the hollow is a cutthroat beast
#darkpoetry #originalpoetry #shortpoetry #darkacademia #melancholy #sadpoetry
it turns out the agony meant
that whenever i'd find true love
i would just know
that my place would be next to you
#poetry #originalpoetry #darkacademia #lovepoetry #shortpoetry
even if our arms did not cross our bodies
your warmth enveloped my chest
and brought the colors back
in a landscape of black-and-white
crack my porcelain skin
i am merely your doll
designed for your pleasure
i never knew that the life of solitude
could be this biting
when i believe it to be the cure
the darkness sinks its teeth into your heart, its venom courses through your veins and bleeds out ink
and it would kill your soul if it was any other way

if i am pretty when i cry, then how shattered do my eyes look when i am smiling?

The quiet, long touches
that lasted longer than they normally would.
Maybe it was just the wrong time
for it to happen.
So I'm still dancing
at the silent disco,
With the sound of my heart
like a drumbeat...

Farewell, original poem + ISAT doodle. Squint for the poetry I’m afraid. Siffrin and I are too alike. #sif #siffrin #isat #instarsandtime #poem #poetry #originalpoetry
