I Am Not A Masterpiece

a letter to myself xx

i am not a masterpiece

most days,

i feel more like a master of pieces

with a crown for disaster

that dismay comes after,

most days,

i feel nothing to say

even my own sorrow

could not find a way

to soften the heaviness

that clings to my throat

i am the keeper of scarcities

that feed themselves

regrets

cracked mirrors can

tell you the rest,

I am not in the mood

to climb over the same fence,

or city on a hill that cannot be hidden

from the light of the world

i am a wordless cross-street

i am a thousand things

i cannot see

you, dancer of the wind

you, dance to beats of hollowness

lies that bring you to the same feat

how can that be?

an absence of life

cannot oversee beauty

to any decree; I plead you

to free me

an ode from me to me

where have I gone wrong in

loving you, tell me?

thank you all for reading! will post more soon. follow @taintedsun on Instagram if you’d like to read more of my thoughts & reflections.

with love, jupiter.
