I swayed back and forth on my
(mood)swing.
And each time that it brings me a bit closer to the sky
I cry out
from this day..from this day I will not take a breath unless its a deep one
I will only take deep breaths
And I will let my hair down and I will find out where my frowns come from and shut the door
Will flood the floor with gasoline.And light 10 matches just like that..
And if one falls down.I'll call it coincidence.
I wear paralization like some sort of designer pants that has
an integrated print where to put your hands
on incase you want a moment alone with me
I have the tendency to breathe backwards.To feel weak and tired when my heart reaches
maximum speed.To keep the package and throw the filling away.
I have this bad habit to tweak each word before I speak to you (which I often do,even if I dont say
anything)
So they come broken and bruised,waiting to be fixed again.You are so sweet when you care.
And repair each one.
I wouldnt say that I am  transient.Am I not doing a good job,when I prevent
everything that could make me grow older?
I erase my wrinkles.Have my shoulders exposed.
Read somewhere that it makes you look like an innocent girl.
You know.The kind of girl that drinks from the gardenhose in spring,and you watch her secretely through your stained carwindow as you drive by.
Want a surprise?I am alive for absolutely no reason.No footsteps for me to walk in,no family tree to continue.I die at the end of each season and come in a new colour code.
I am the type of person who works 50 years on one sculpture.A self portrait.
And then he dies in an accident without ever having placed hands on the texture of his own being.
Sometimes my lovers were evil.And sent me my own letters back.
And as I read the lines I fall in love with this twisted version of myself
And comit the kind of suicide that is printed in an article your parents hide from you for a lifetime
But others read it in the newspaper right next to the coupons that gets you
a certain meal 50% reduced
And you are confused whether you are acting morally wrong.
I dont know if..when I fall in love I love that person or just
the excursion into being loved in return that he offers me.Whether I love him or just all the various types of affection in between.
For aslong as this love still breathes I might never even know what goes beyond it.
I will be perfectly content,won't even want it like
babies who refuse food.
It just becomes a twisted game in which you expand the ways to express affection into various directions and dimensions until you lose all tension and find another one who mentions your name with..that kind of twisted smile.
Sometimes I don't even feel myself anymore.
Like your warm shoes keep you off from noticing the uneven spots on the floor.
but you can take those shoes off,incase you are tired of monotony.
but me?What am I supposed to do?
I confuse myself on a daily basis.
Sometimes when I speak I put emphasis on the wrong parts of words.
Just to have the feeling that I swerve off from what makes sense.Just to understand that there is nothing to understand.Mabye to describe.Maybe to put into some category.But not understand.Not aslong I am alive.
I think in this system we live we dont have any chance to ever find out what's essential about life.
Some institute will pull a smile into our face once we die as if we had finally reached enlightment.
When all the years were just made of existing,planning how to spend the free time on our weekends.
And we send our parents christmas greetings.When we dont even know who those people are,when all we desired was finally leaving their suffocating embrace.
Sometimes I chase
myself on open street.
But even if I scream : hold her back!stop her!
nobody ever helps.Their own self ran away years ago without that they noticed.
But I am just a language baby.Use me.Abuse me until you figure out your own
"style" , maybe youll write poems with me.
Or brabble words like a newborn child.
Maybe you wont ever talk again or
Maybe youll create some songs?
One of those :
"I love you.Do you love me too"
Passion and lust like grains of dust on your tv screen.
But words are not modern anymore.
The wholy bible has been replaced with the holy rifle and the word of god
is one shot
into an innocent mans head.
But friends.My loving friends.We can all change it.Lets hold our hands.Light a candle.
And beat our wife when we are back home this night.
And keep a safe distance to our life.Best build a fence
around yourself.
But we are activists for peace!Aslong as it doesnt have to take place
inside of me.
Aslong as there's an enemy to fight that distracts us from the battlefield inside our minds.Its good.Very comfortable.
Brave new world.
I have one problem.And it's that I very often become you
before you do.
And that starts some kind of identity crisis you know?
I cannot slow down because I broke the tires of this car.
Now come on.No guilty conscience please.I know I should have forever stayed in my ..wagon made of stars that I drove in when I was 3.I lost my driving license back then.Cause I flew too high.
But things change.And so do we.Because we are made of things.
We are made of the gifts you bring
when you visit your neighbour.That's what its all about.
If you want to prove me your innocence.It takes more than putting your hands up.
You would let me
Pull your ribs apart and see if your heart truly "beats oooonly for me".
But you dont do that.You are afraid of ugly scars.Left by my fingernails.

We
are
snails moving through this highspeed society.
And leave back the traces on which others slip and fall to the ground.
The best influence we ever had.
Sometimes I stop the day in the middle.I have this.Overdimensional remote control.
That I press so I dont miss the rest of this movie they titled "my life"..
while I go inside of the bathroom and spit my soul out onto the carpet.
And then I let it play violin for me ( I taught it to do that at the age of 3 )
And it plays the violin all the way into my brain
Says "sit down and listen
and let the notes eat your memories away
until not a single one remains"
It's so beautiful.To forget.The best massage that your frightened brain could have.
Because we are all afraid.
We are afraid of choosing the wrong way.
When there is no wrong way
just a wrong reaction to what awaits
you.
Ah,enough for this evening.I am leaving without ever
having been
here
And now I want you to go out and take your life like you used to do when the two of you were an innocent love couple at highschool.
Kiss it
directly onto its lips.
Infront of your mother.

Drug influenced writing.Overdosis writing.
I wont tell you which one.
Only this
it has two eyes
a nose } L i f e
and a kiss
for me
everytime I come to it.
Nope.not a human.


I was lying on the floor and just started rambling.Recorded it.
So this is what comes out.
You might think its garbage.And it is..Never wants to be more than leftovers of what you throw away.

nova

And comments would be nice.
Even if you just want to tell me that you had rice for dinner..ah.just anything! I need to have some kind of contact..some fifteen seconds of imaginary touch with those who have the patience for this.please..

this is the kind of existential crisis that polutes the mind af any person who has the interest and the eyes to see anything more than what life shows you front-side-up. Very well put into words.. anyway, if it describes a state of mind .. maybe a :hug: will help...
:iconslowpulseboy:
i didnt have rice...
i had seafood.
its not about the poem.
its about you.
i believe that the day will pass...
oh...just got a telephone
maybe the day wont pass after all...ouphh...
ok i ate seafood and i drunk too much white wine.
its all about you...now..
not about the words at all...not about the words at all...
i hang myself behind an airplanes tail.
i am a black kite...
do you want some wine?i bet you didnt epxect a comment from me.buti did comment
despite the police,despite the wine,despite the well cooked seafood,despite the chocolate remainders upon my hands.its all bout you now...and that makes me nervous.
when the schools out i ll be just a pink box full of dirty rags and you ll see...
its always nice when you open a box
it doesnt matter what you ll find.
it only matters what you hope to find.
and the excitement.the unknown...
but there is nothing in there nova...just me...nothing.
does the word love means anything to you?
to me...i m just not sure...
sometimes i feel like Sino is right...
i bet he read it from Clive Barker 's Evervile...
you can only have one love in your life...
blured thoughts...too much wine...
today i am prosaic...
only worst...
oh it s a big comment
not even a comment
a quivering...upon a wall...from us..to them.with love!
with love nova...always with love...
the poem?oh forget the poem...its more than a poem...
we live it...swimming in a deep water pool
drowning inside their saliva.
and saying the same old things again and again with different words
but with the same decapitated head whispering the same paranoia words to our bleeding ears.
forget about the poems...
forget about hell...this is armagedon!

if i say "i love you"
will it mean anything to you?
just wondering...
one more hour...and i ll tell you how things are...one more hour...
and i ll tell you how the quiverings go through...continueing.
a wrong spelled word i am...
an accident of curse....
not even a birth ;P

Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair // deal outjacks or better on a blunket by the stairs // i ll tell you all my secrets but i lie about my past // so send me of to bed forever more..
:iconjraub:
It's been too long since I've read your writings Nova. I tried to hide from them, and I did for awhile, but now I'm stuck again. I'm stuck loving every word you've inscribed. Never stop writing.

--
I'm so in love with you.
:icondeviantdizz:
i think its important to hear the words actually spoken
i start to think more of your voice can i hear it?

Have you ever taken a blank notebook and started filling it?
Do it
Don't stop, not really i mean stop to eat or do whatever but do nothing else
Speak no other time in action, just react to what is said and leave your spillings for the book

I did this and sent it away to my lover, she loves me so much from so far away
I never call to talk to her it kills me inside the passion she has i don't see in anyone around me
Sweet ramblings of overstimulated embellished thought that i can't really touch like you
but because you say them the way that you do, I know the emotion coming through

And i can lift that up
oh what a beautiful feeling and then again and again the rush never seems to end

and yes if i read it out loud id lose my life because why would i breath in if i wasn't done pushing out such a beautiful feeling?

LUSH
:iconcitizenerased:
Playing hide and seek games with my writing would be
suicidal
they tend to punish me once they find me,found out I tried to hide.
I've ran from many things in life but those little bastards called words have feet ..faster than mine.
so no need to worry :)

thank you so much,mi hermano.
Youve been here since the first piece I ever posted.
and you still are...thats..whoa.

And I stood.On the hill and realized there were two nightskies.The one above me.And the one under me,the city.With the thousand sparkling lights.And both were just as hard to explain.

i didn't have anything for breakfast. dinner, well last night i ate chicken fingers. today, for lunch i tried to eat this fish at school, but i felt like i had eaten bile, so i stopped. i don't have any pretty words to give you, i think you took the words already, and it'd be a trifle me to try to say anything more. i feel like since i'm empty, all my words must be too. but nothing's really empty, i guess. maybe my perpective is trite, but since i don't think anymore. i used to think, but i stopped thinking. because thinking just got me into trouble. but i think that i have to think, i have no choice. even living as i do purely by intuition. i'm always denying myself. i feel like that if somewhere within my i could creat a black hole, then somehow something would make sense. i feel like i have potential to be more than i am, though; it's just that i'm me, so i fail. like if i wasn't me, i could be a better me. you said your poems are never you, that the speaker is never you. i always wanted anything i write or make to be every bit of me. because i'm the truth i hold because this is the life i've been given. anyway, i think part of you is always present, and in fact must be present, no matter if you are the speaker in the poem or not, maybe that was obvious already, but, saying you're not the speaker just makes me think that you're not involved in it, somehow, even though you wrote it, it's more than that, because i never really look at anything in your writing except you, and you are what makes it so great. there's a band called pink spiders. when i think of it, i always thingk pink spider monkeys, and then pink monkeys. i don't listen to the band or anything. so it's not really relevant. but it must be if i mentioned it? or am i irrelevant really to begin with, making this whole thing irrelevant, but then again nothing's irrelevant. and if i read this, if i could, i would realize how stupid i am. good thing that i can't read this, and that i don't even exist in the part of me that would make me exist, else i would hate myself more than i already do, and i'm not sure that's entirely possible. but, this is sad. if you've read this far, maybe you'll understand. pitiful sad. so, i'll put myself out of my misery, and just stop.
:iconwolve31:
ahh perfect expression of what eyes can give away in the silence. i like it, the stream of thoughts, and it would take far too long to say everything about every bit but you have such a unique marvellous way of expressing things.
:icondulcinea:
I loved this...can't pick out my favorite part...that's not possible. So many wonderful little writing "moments" ...it's awesome.

one time i went to boston and got over shitfaced in this guy's appartment (won't do that again).

i wrote something insanely magnifiscent, kind of like this in a way. it was very free-thought based and seemed to touch on things that i don't often write down or vocalize often.

i made a recording too, but my friend still has what i managed mumbled out. something more similar to this i would imagine. i haven't heard it yet.

i love how you managed to touch on the beauty and importance of life here when you said "Want a surprise?I am alive for absolutely no reason."

to me, this is a great piece of free-thought static.
