I stand here, week in, week out Empty, like a vortex Sucking, draining Every spirit, every life.
It is dark And I?m not sure when it?s day I lie, I wait For the sun to make it?s mark on yet another space in time Clocking it up A notch on the belt A mark on my calender It?s all so small, like a fish in the sea
And then there?s you. In you glide, like a breath of fresh air Graceful, eloquent Yet unassuming Like a desert, in all its naivety You just are?
Two steps to the right Two steps to the left You entice me Alluring, consuming I?m not sure where you end and I begin It?s all a mistake, an error in judgement Or maybe a dream Which? I am not sure
But where are you? I can?t seem to see And yet you are all around me Like a damp, wet fog Dripping, heavy and almost tangible Permeating every pore And the core of my being
I breath you in, I can?t help it I forget who I am.
"Like a damp, wet fog". That is the worst, but i couldn't think of anything else to say at the time.
I also want to erradicate "And then there?s you" because i threw it in at the last minute and i don't think it needs to be there. Just making sure you know i am not COMPLETELY illiterate, lol 😉
Alright. If you plan on critiquing this, please be gentle as it took me countless hours to write (even such a small amount). I wrote this about a year ago all by myself. I have another sample of a part of a screenplay I wrote with my boyfriend, but I w
Empty, like a vortex
Sucking, draining
Every spirit, every life.
It is dark
And I?m not sure when it?s day
I lie, I wait
For the sun to make it?s mark on yet another space in time
Clocking it up
A notch on the belt
A mark on my calender
It?s all so small, like a fish in the sea
And then there?s you.
In you glide, like a breath of fresh air
Graceful, eloquent
Yet unassuming
Like a desert, in all its naivety
You just are?
Two steps to the right
Two steps to the left
You entice me
Alluring, consuming
I?m not sure where you end and I begin
It?s all a mistake, an error in judgement
Or maybe a dream
Which? I am not sure
But where are you? I can?t seem to see
And yet you are all around me
Like a damp, wet fog
Dripping, heavy and almost tangible
Permeating every pore
And the core of my being
I breath you in, I can?t help it
I forget who I am.
