Blackout Poetry Notes

Faithful to Destiny

I am a poet
faithful to destiny.

My only advice -
fix your mind upon
a most interesting life
and change to be
exactly this.

We were so happy,
we were so beautiful
and then...
my soul broke.

I feared
he was my universe.
My life.
He held a strange weight
that must possess me
entirely.

In a place of
unfamiliar country,
my hair tousled in invigorating air
and exhilaration.
I was happy, undoubtedly.

Live in the
most beautiful way
you can.

I feel as if I
did go
mad in love.

A lost mind, locked inside
cracking with emotion.
I've tried living freely,
that's simply not me.
I can't reinvent myself.

Be a soul
that
is wide open.

A great fatigue: this
stagnant point
in my poisoned body.
My corpse-like face
nothing to you, my love.
I was surviving.
