Frozen

I know what it's like to not feel
To be numb
Empty
Without

The emotions of others can
overwhelm
Maybe that's why I do it
Why I impersonate
Your feelings
Or theirs

Maybe I don't have any
Of my own

Maybe I'm empty
Like ice
Numb to the touch
Without feeling

Maybe I'm just lost
Trying to find myself
In the eyes of another

Quite Clear

your words might not
come out quite clear
but the meaning
is always there

with your heart
you learn to speak
through the arts
you can

the music
the notes
they blend together

reactions form
emotions create
feelings brought to others
without the use of words

and there is never
any doubt
about what you mean
to say

Short-Term Instead

you once understood me

down to the slightest

crease in my flesh

but if this is true,

then how is it possible

that you now,

don't know me at all?

you pushed me behind

as if under a bus

to hold together your past

when holding onto us

went to the back burner.

you moved forward

and that's fine

but you forgot

and for that, I can

not.

Change

The hues change
and the shape reflects
all the while
onlooking
at what crosses before it

The center of meaning
and the meaning
of life
remains masked
behind it

They change with the
light
but the message stays the
same

and the only one
who will be able to read it
is the one
who knows exactly
what they're looking for
