Weight of memories

Standard

Six feet under

Lies the coffin of illusions.

Under the weight of memories,

And flowers in baffling combinations

Like illnesses in hospitals

Waiting to be cured.

Above, winter has laid a thick carpet

Blocking the world out.

A silencer of sounds,

A pillow to be shot through.

The world has fallen into disrepair

And ghost are walking among the debris.

Restless nights

Standard

Every afternoon at 5

The light goes into sleeping mode

Slowly prepares the bed

For monstrous dreams

And 6 word flashes

Of meaningless stories-

Residues of the hours of the day.

And the heart crawls out

Like a molehill in the collarbone

Trying to find peace

And curls on the pillow

Like a cat,

Next to my restless dreams.
