my disappearance

Posted by Robert Anderson On Sunday, September 25, 2011 0 comments

these
antidepressants
won't let me be

i linger inside helplessly
hoping that the affection i write
for my dearest doesn't wither
from the fragility
of my heart

to be more saddened than they presently know
empowers me with all that moodiness they find
whenever i passionately shed the light of
my immortal soul

and now
i canvass through the depth my mind:
will they still "love" me
after i am utterly vacant from
the 'me' they have always held
before their delighted
beautiful
eyes...

will they even
remember
me?

these thoughts of you
are nothing more, nothing more
than any one thing
that remains
as the grain
of my crucified soul

i bathe in their reflection
which often betrays the chance
to rediscover
your beautiful heart

if ever they became
abortive and unsound
then i'll fight, i swear i'll fight
while vaguely unraveled
of all the ways
i honestly love you...

to re-exist

as my soul falls apart

oh, am i still who you'll think of
when days remind you, dear;
when i am gone, gone far away
to have you wish me near?
as stars bequeath my memory
to you, and you alone,
will you think of when we danced
in fragile somber tones?
beneath the muted silver skies
while love turned to debris,
i swear i never thought you less
than what my dreams could be
but i must go, yes, go away
to save your precious heart,
from all darkness that i am
as my soul falls apart

when the silence invites me in

when the silence invites me in
when the shadows take my heart
when the thought of never trying
embraces in the dark


when I fail to find my way
and drift into the night
when I can't help myself
from feeling quite as nice


when I dwell inside my head
when my blindness finds me there
I wonder if they see
how I hide beneath my layers


when I seem so much aloof
when my aim is so unfocused
when my intellect is off
I wonder do they notice?
 







Afterthought

embark with me but for today
through life and not apart
the things we are and how we're not
our souls that once were scarred

by doubtfulness in dreams we've lived
until we wake in dare
to prove we are still worth a moment
of chance 'til days we bear

the rhythm through all the beautiful
thoughts of how we feel
the yearning makes our hearts fonder
the heavens will conceal

another time beyond the faint
echo of our lives
to prove to us that what we are
is what we know inside

Avenue

I shy away upon
the road you led me down
cut by the words you spoke
the gunshot's an awful sound
the hidden doubt beneath
the last days I felt you
only to carry me away
to once a beautiful avenue

Dear Muse

Deep in my mind that acts as my true sight
I hide beneath the cloak of my daydreams
While knowing only when I wish too bright
The things I feel within the way life streams
And by the breadth and height of all I've veiled
I'll shine as validly as what my soul
Does wish for you, oh if my love had failed
Then I'll conceive to let these words console
In how you sometimes seem to doubt wherein
If I were more assuring then dear muse
You'd take a look at all the beauty in
Your every ounce of fairness I enthuse
I here attest my truest thoughts that brim
Beyond the depth while all my feeling's whim
