Sebastian Guyette immerses himself into the artwork of words to create meaning in this beautiful collection of poems. The themes of the text include heartbreak, love and the duality it brings, and the mind under intense emotion.

Wolf and Amaryllis - Sebastian Guyette
Valentine
images_199_Copy73.pngWill you be my Valentine?
I’ve liked you for quite some time
Will you be my Valentine?
If even the sun didn’t rise...
And the sun didn’t shine
All I want is for you to be mine
If there was no light and only darkness
I still would want you to be mine with whole heartedness
Regardless, if your answer is yes or no
It doesn’t stop me from wanting to know
This feeling I have fills me from head to toe
There is just something I’m just dying to know
And that is
Will you be my Valentine?
Just this one time?
The Music, The Orchid, The Vampire
images_198_Copy77.pngI can’t design myself to love you any less
You are the music in my heart
And I never want us to drift apart
I’m designed to listen to you
I’m programmed to do whatever it takes to be with you
I’m uncontrollably always trying for your attention
The musical waves flutter in my chest
The musical waves project from my chest
My heart is a crest for love that never becomes less
The waves pound in my heart
They’re what keep it beating
They’re what keep it consistent
Your heart needs consistency
If you don’t want to die from inefficiency
You give me those waves
You give me that consistency
To my heart and brain, you are beautiful mystery
Systematically and dramatically
I can’t give you up
You are what gives me life
You are what makes the word life
have meaning
With you, the before darkness line of my future
That dark line now has a gleaning
A gleaning of light
A future that’s more realistically in sight
You can make me weak
But you also give me might
With you, I want nothing more than to fight
To fight for that gleaning light in my future
No matter how small
I’ll die for that light
I’ll die for that chance
Like an orchid
She is an angel
Like an orchid
She is vampire
She is an angel for her display
And a vampire for her stagnant compelling attraction
Stagnant because she can sit and do nothing
And I will always want to do something
I will always feel something
She’s a vampire for her temptation
A vampire for the sensation
the_music_the_orchid_the_vampire.pngMy heart thrives for that sensation
The feeling of my lips on the tips of hers
That’s enough to drive me crazy
That’s enough to drive me to insanity
That feeling allows me to thrive for
