Wanted to start a trend of writing poetry for november so yeah, poetry p.ii now with personas<\/p>\n
if I told you I did it for you, you\u2019d call me a liar. but somehow self-gain makes sense. every word out of my mouth you sincerely tried to block out but suddenly when you try to speak, you expect Christmas to come early. You got this idea,<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s all garbage out of your mouth,\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n but when it\u2019s yours I guess it doesn\u2019t count. because I lie far too much to ever tell a fib, and when you fib, I just nod my head and glue my lips to keep the bread split between us.<\/p>\n But I think I\u2019m getting tired of that?<\/p>\n I know there\u2019s only much stale bread to keep me sustained, because maybe being fed like a dog isn\u2019t worth my dignity. I used to love this game of back and forth, but hell knows if it means anything, all I know is I\u2019ve been chasing to catch up with it, but the game is faster than my shoes can go.<\/p>\n My soles have run themselves ragged in their effort to keep up, and my knees are starting to give, so maybe I\u2019ll let you leave behind this time and lead whatever race you\u2019re trying to run.<\/p>\n I never thought someone could recreate themself straight from the kiln. Clearly I was wrong.<\/p>\n What happened, I don’t know. I don’t know why this hurts.<\/p>\n You were born fire ash and smoke and I got used to the scent. You clawed your way here yourself, and somehow, we shared the same callouses. That was our normal. Through this, I always thought I had someone who I recognized, we were made of rock and steel, we were made from hell together. We both climbed and we both made it ourselves. I thought it was something I knew well but now something\u2019s different, and it’s turning my insides out. You made it. Without me.<\/p>\n You’re smiling, and you’re laughing, you’re unrecognizable, and I know I should be happy, but I don’t know what I’m feeling.<\/p>\n You remade yourself. Built yourself from the ground up, you wield something once scarred like its molten iron straight from the furnace. And yet here I am, and I’m not. I’m still shackled to my arms and body in chains that I don\u2019t know how to shake.<\/p>\n So I have to ask.<\/p>\n How did you do it?<\/p>\n No one knows the feeling of breathing like I do<\/p>\n something locked up in your chest you\u2019d only been underwater for a few seconds, It wasn\u2019t that bad, You were only holding your breath a little bit but then you woke up.<\/p>\n so it\u2019s not that bad, really. that\u2019s just what breathing is.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wanted to start a trend of writing poetry for november so yeah, poetry p.ii now with personas fraudulent accord if I told you I did it for you, you\u2019d call me a liar. but somehow self-gain makes sense. every word out of my mouth you sincerely tried to block out but suddenly when you try … Continue reading “Poetry collection p.ii [persona edition]”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":89,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18533"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/89"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18533"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18533\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18539,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18533\/revisions\/18539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}kiln<\/h3>\n
holding your Breath<\/h3>\n
lets itself go and you feel reality reconnect
itself<\/p>\n
you swear<\/p>\n
you didn\u2019t even notice it.<\/p>\n
where your eyes started to spill themselves from your head
and reality turned to water and maybe you were drowning<\/p>\n
