The Poetry of Melcena Silverclaw
Confusion
There is darkness in me, darkness that burns and aches
I feel a lightner, near you, that beckons me to rise
But I stay, rooted to the rock, and grow cold
I just stay, and stare, feel unseen watching eyes
And I wonder, why I cannot rise, why I cannot fly
And all I can think of is darkness, a darkness that eats,
Me
Death is light, a feather, I want to float, but life, so glorious,
weighs me down
But all that there is, is an empty darkness, and you, are all I see
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Laughter
When it hurts,
All we can do is:
Laugh a little
Talk a little
And die, a little more,
Inside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reach Towards the Light
Dark thoughts
Race through my mind
Tickles my soul,
Sends shadowy doubts,
To clutch
My heart
Dark thoughts
Twine 'round me
Encircle me
And open my eyes
To what I
Don't want the see
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Morning
I shiver, in the morning-touched air
Dew-drops shine,
In the early sunlight
Shadows pass, over my face
In the brisk, morning breeze
Birds call
A symphonic cacophony
As the sun rises
Over the tree tops
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brilliance
Deep thoughts
Draw me down
And I drown
In thoughts
Deeper and blacker
Than any ocean
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Quiet
Solitude
I rejoice
And cry in
My lonliness
Fleeting reflections
As I walk the
Crowded corridors
Of my life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A White Smile
Cold,
Slithers around me
And I cannot feel it
I am numb
Frozen
And I cannot bring myself
To care
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Light
Smile!
Are you happy?
I am
If you are not happy,
Neither am I
But I am always happy
Even if I am not
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Smile
Grim laughter
Echoes
In my brain
Manic laughter
And I find myself
Wondering
If it is mine
I cannot tell
Can you?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mirrors
I look past
The looking-glass
Into my own eyes
And see:
Pain
Hurt
Loathing
All hiden
By a bright smile
And a flim of numbness
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fleeting moments
Running
From myself
From emptiness
From darkness
From pain
From death
From life
From myself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Silence
I try to be
And I cannot
All that I was
Could be,
Is gone
And all that I am
Is a shell
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Death
Emotionless
Stainless steel
No caring
No love
Only Empty Darkness
And cold steel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Closet Space
A whirling mass
Of my own emotions
Closes over me
And I am lost
In a tumbling darkness
Created by
Caring
Too much
Or too little
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rainbow
Moving, changing
Flowing, living
A kalidoescopic world
Slides past
My unrelieved,
Never-changing
Haven of blackness
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A long, dusty ribbon
Lost to the world
To which, I have
Never, really belonged
I walk, untouched
Uncaring
And yearning
For a warm smile
That is real
And not for
The person behind me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reflections
Remorseless
Mute
Clear, cold, dark eyes
Stare
Into the mirrior
Into mine
Shaken out of thought,
I realize,
That those eyes
Are mine
