Invasive Reflections

Summary:

A new poetry book full of personal reflections as well as mini stories based on Greek mythology.

Chapter 1: April Flowers

Chapter Text

I’m tired of April already.

I need to be anywhere else;

Less cold and more steady.

Somewhere my heart melts.

 

Love can be found here.

That’s what they used to say.

But my affection blooms near;

Death cannot be found there anyway

 

A false lover draws her knife close

to a place it does not belong.

But I have accepted more than most

that I won’t hear that distinct song.

 

The kind that reminds you

you are where you’re meant to be.

No one has the right to undo

everything you’ve done to set yourself free.

 

I can feel it now, but it feels too late.

Why tell myself this truth?

In a world of borders and gates,

How dare I begin to face my youth?

 

Love I am surrounded with;

It’s all a deadly reminder.

The life you desire is as good as myth.

And you will never find much kinder.
