Oblivion

Veins throbbing, yet he didn't have an inkling. He would soon discover that his heart was beating faster than the speed of light, and nothing but death could slow it down. His chest was closing in, and he didn't know why. He was slowly loosing focus, and his vision began to blur. His thoughts began to mix with his speech. The mumbling turned to revelation and his mind lost control. His heart, after all, was the most powerful organ in his body. His balance, of course, was next, and he lost that too. He slid slowly, onto the dark marble floor, and reached for stability, which he did not find. His head against the wall, and his legs limp in front of him, he can only blame the cause.

Cold Crystal

Each glimmers
Blinding beauty builds
Shoulders shiver
Understated chills

Soft, delicate crystals
Moved by monsters
Plead to shimmer
On a world that's become dimmer

I sing to tiny diamonds
My view is of privilege
Behind frosted window
Hot cocoa and slippers

Plowed into mountains
We mourn the loss of uniformity
No longer can they hold hands
And grace us with effervescence

Warned but hasty
We lost the beauty
We let down patience
And birthed a slimy habitat

My apologies
On behalf of these
Humans with no humanity
Dicing thee
Mercilessly
Just to get to work

Beautify my Memories

Memories never fail. It is the remitter's actions which can be a failure. And since we know our present motions will ingrain themselves in our memories, why allow them to be shameful? Because we value the moment over the future. We bias the fulfillment of our desires to our present self, and ignore and neglect our future self. We slowly build momentum, being careless of the decisions our future will face due to these actions, until we get so close to the cliff. And since our past self was so careless and cut the break cables, we are heaved into space and sucked by gravity: we fall. We fail. Be mindful of potential pitfalls. Plan to procure potions to push away the petrifying perturbances. Place faith in the true guidance and follow it. Be considerate of your future self, and set a path that leads only to Paradise.
