Soft Spot.” is a visual poem shot by me (logan poe) styled by Jye Leong, and modeled by Morgan Vandermaas. The concept was developed by our stylist, Jye Leong, who wanted to expel some emotion while building a nice piece for his portfolio. I later wrote and revised the written poem to go along with the set of photographs. With my visual poems, I aim to paint a picture of a certain mental state or emotional state through the pieces as a whole. This one is titled “Soft Spot.”
Soft spot for the ones who love to run away,
An addiction to escapism that remains commonplace,
Summer spent fast, dreams of summer love in London,
Shared shattered pasts over cigarettes after sex,
Still have a spot for that blonde hair, those black lungs,
Green eyes that almost broke gravity,
Till smoke faded the boundaries that now bind us still,
With an unspoken understanding of an invisible clock,
And an unrealistic, yet romantic thought.
Sorry it never worked out
