No more shadows
By Solidice


Wrote it on my way home, think it turned out pretty nice, what do u think? :D

Maybe I'll let u interpret this on your own this time :) tell me in the comments what u think this means!

Note: At this point, you probably already know that all my worka are strong emotions/scattered thoughts masquerading as poems, same goes for this one lol. I'll edit it soon, someone needs to kick my lazy ass awake!

Bob along,

The languid rocking of the raft 

Round the dark quayside.

Cafè lights on, people shop on,

I shy away like a shadow,

Though I know they don't care what I do how I look when I smile.

Middling, slash-like concoction 

Shutter clicks but don't smile coz your teeth will never catch a sparkle so won't your peace peace sign

Act like a wallflower, clinging to the vines cuz they won't discover.

Click, it hissed,

From the rusty sound-box of the light bulb,

It is a rare occurrence, says no sparkle-free smiles, not anymore.

But many moons pass before I ever dare to inch towards the light, sunlight.

I don't know how it got to me but

Now it shines on all my things and bearings

One good thing is that I get to smile with a sparkle in my eyes and no peace, peace sign.

Okay, so,

Now that things are getting better we embarked on a trek up a green, mossy, curious thing.

Fingers lift like lifting entrenched rock and many a thing scuttle out

Is brilliant, shadows depart from the glare of their sun.

Rainwater thrums silently underneath in great channels,

And some curious animal kicks at my soles, I do and undo my hair and the shutter clicks but the difference is that I'm operating it

That's beside the point because my light is beside me and I'm feeling real great, 

Like I know where to go.

Would have never liked it, so much, my sun,

If the skies were gloomy unlike today.

At the end of the trail, I should be "spent" but again,

You kinda prolonged my descent to muck but muck 

Instead it barely clicked the shadow barely shifted at all,

All but tiredness in my marrow, so really sunshine,

Acuteness settled in between the spaces of my shoes.

Please remain forever, the wind in my sails and the giver, you brought on brightness.

Thanks for reading, you're the best!!
