Just Us (Untitled Poem)

when it’s just us
we remain quiet—
the moon and me

Exploring the Symmetry of the Poem

The poem has a subtle yet elegant symmetry, created by the balance between the speaker, the moon, and the silence they share. The first two lines set up a mirrored structure: “when it’s just us” reflects intimacy, and “we remain quiet” mirrors the peacefulness of that moment. The final line brings both the speaker and the moon into equal standing, emphasizing their quiet connection. The dash before the last line creates a pause, highlighting the reflective symmetry between the quiet of the speaker and the quiet of the moon.

Night Soul

I open my soul
and invite the night inside
but it doesn’t come
it’s already here

The poem was created on March 5, 2024, and visualized by DALL-E and Microsoft Designer in a minimalistic, stylized, and simple manner.

A Hidden Harmony in Free Verse

There is a subtle yet noticeable triple rhyme in the poem: “invite,” “night,” and “inside.” While this might not be a conventional technique in many forms of modern poetry, it’s a deliberate use of near rhyme, where words share similar sounds without being exact matches.

Some Moonlight (Untitled Poem)

only some moonlight
nothing else—
in the night

The poem was created on April 2nd, 2024. Image generation by DALL-E and Microsoft Designer via Bing.

The poem creates a quiet, contemplative atmosphere through its simplicity and precise choice of words. It conveys a sense of silence and loneliness, as “only some moonlight” suggests that moonlight is the only visible element in the darkness. This evokes a feeling of emptiness and isolation, as if the night remains infinite and untouched.

The minimalism and clarity of the text emphasize a reduction to the essentials, highlighting the vastness and stillness of the night. The short sentence and the use of the dash after “nothing else” enhance the sense of timelessness, leaving room for deep reflection.

Moonlight, often symbolic of something unattainable or fleeting, evokes a sense of melancholy and introspection. It seems as though the speaker finds comfort in the solitude of the night, accepting its emptiness and losing themselves in its quiet, timeless beauty.

About the Emptiness of Night

The emptiness of night, ah, what a curious feeling that is! You know, when darkness falls and the world seems to hold its breath, there’s this sense of vastness that creeps in. It’s like the night peels away the daytime clutter, leaving behind a canvas of possibilities.

Nightly

she wears feathers
the night—
when she wants
she caresses you

Sentiment Analysis

The poem evokes a sense of gentle, soothing intimacy, enhanced by the personification of the night as a soft, tender figure. It conveys feelings of calm, tenderness, and quiet affection, creating an emotional closeness and a sense of comfort. At the same time, there is a slight melancholy in the tone, typical of nighttime scenes, which are often associated with introspective moments.
