‘Liminal’ Poem

Written by The Silicon Tribesman. All Rights Reserved, 2020.

Like most winter days

With frozen toes

And purple eyes

I spend my time

Drinking tea and shuddering

At the brown, barren world

Wondering if I am perhaps cursed

With too much empathy

That I lay

Like a crunchy leaf

Under the gathering clouds of my own reality

Also waiting for permission

To become part of the dirt

Until I find the strength to be Green once again

You live, you laugh,

You hope, you try.

You do your best,

And then you die.

If you live your life,

then props to you.

But i can’t do the things normal people do.

What do normal people do?

Original poetry by RumourTalks

So I guess this is our new destiny: a connection fated to walk in parallel lines, never touching.

MK Ireland #269 : intersection

Intentional or not, if all he’s doing is hurting you, at some point you have to walk away.

MK Ireland #250 : self preservation

One thing I’ve learned:

Everything hurts worse at night.

Go to sleep my love, things will be clearer in the morning.

MK Ireland #248 : midnight pains

Time turns,
People change,
Everyone leaves,
Everything disappears.

Life is worthless,
Time proves this, 
Nothing is right,
Life is wrong.

Everything is a mess,
What am I doing?
Where am I going?
Time changes but I stand still.

Time causes everyone to leave me,
No one stays,
Time provides better opportunities for them,
Time changes I still drown in misery.

Time turns,
Nothing has a point,
My life is worthless,
Time changes and this time takes my life with it.
