I can't remember the time or place
That my brain flew into space
A moment where I became just sludge
A tiny being of melting chocolate fudge
A tasty combination of hope and fear
Wished that I could hold you near
I jumped into a hole I made
To find that I was full of pain
And darkness surrounded me
I was wrapped in insanity
Not able to hear you speak
Your words and actions seemed so meek
I could not tell if I was real or fake
This terrible feeling was truly opaque
I looked in the mirror to find that I was a stranger
At first I loved myself, until I became my own danger
I ran through the creepy halls
Found myself grasping for t
A man is jogging on an old, crooked road
As the sun sets, his breath is already heavy
His feet already sore
His muscles strong but aching
The darkness settles in all around him
The cool air brushes against his hot skin,
A refreshing relief
An escape from reality.
The long, spiny shadows of trees loom over him
Every step he takes getting harder,
His heartbeat races,
So he stops on the side of the road, breathing deeply.
But no matter the pain,
It is here that he feels at peace.
He is one with the road,
His running shoes are his best friends.
Sometimes I think and feel and see and breathe and hear and things taste like nothing is real or alive...
I walk down the street, the sun is so bright in my face, heat pressed against my face like a pushy boyfriend, and I don't want anything to do with this world. The square boxes called houses and the perfectly cut green grass lawns are so unappealing to the eyes that I must close them. The noises I hear, car breaks squeaking, the industrial hum of a city, kids screaming, laughing, crying, parents shouting. The smell of car fumes in my nose as I run away from this place. But sometimes, if I travel far enough I reach a place where all I hear
this secret love for you,
i keep in my pocket,
like a scrunched up note,
hidden from peering eyes.
unrequited i long for you,
i ache to kiss you,
like a flower craves
the caress of the sun.
your eyes draw me in
like a cool, blue pool
and in i fall.
like a child who does not know how to swim,
i drown in you.
the temptation overtakes me,
that i need to tell you how i feel,
but i choke up.
speak now, or forever hold your peace...
the line repeats,
repeats,
repeats,
but it's too late.
i love to just imagine how it would be...
the fantasy like a fairy tale,
you'd take me in your arms so gently,
and romantically,
passionate
you know now what true love is-
it's a warm brush of air on a cold winter night.
take your time just to let the moment linger,
give her the world,
your heart,
the stars,
and she shines.
your green eyes, the colour of a warm, splashing sea,
stare into the depths of your past
and coolly clear away what was painful-
her stinging, salty waves of mistakes
- her eyes, the colour of a dark, wooded forest,
turn blue and she cries.
beautifully, kindly, you'll still love her
hold her dearly in that pocket you call your heart
and she'll cling to the seams
forever.
ancient seashores beckon
muddy pathways call
grassy fields yearn
for tires, bare feet and sneakers
old friends hope
lovers ache
children need
for their cherished to come home
if there's anywhere to go,
it's to go where one is loved
Stars fill my veins
Every crevice and hole
Overflows with cosmic dust.
This is magical.
The eclipse is like a closing eye.
A reddish glow, in the pupil of the moon,
and a teardrop of rain is squeezed out on me
like a lemon is squished for juice.
I am the only one awake,
or so I thought.
A cat shuffles gently through the grass.
In the darkness, his tail sways about.
A fluffy, white snake,
dusting off leaves and gathering bugs
(involuntarily)
I call the cat over, quietly...
but he just meows and lays down
in front of his door,
waiting for his owners to let him in.
I look back at the sky.
It captivates me...
So beautiful an

Lustrous locks of sunshine
Dance upon your face
I descend into your space
And can't rise out
It's the first day of autumn
And I'm shivering; iced up
Without your presence
I call for your warmth
I nod off in contemplation
I am light-headed with fatigue
For the more I sleep, the more weary I get
You seem to be caught in my head
When I push you away
You come scurrying back
I wish I could find where you have grown
And carve you out
But you are fixed inside me
In my coat, in my eyes
You are the absent piece to my

Soaking the heat
Were a thousand molecules of grains of sand
Feeling sad, to be alive
You didn't understand
Sat like statues
Mumbled away and forever
Searched our souls for all the answers
We were digging for treasure
I can't forget the look on her face….
She smiled at me
She told me I looked pretty
I smirked and smiled and blushed and thanked her
But did I really believe?
Nobody believes
Until it's all gone and done, and done forever
I'm so glad I met you
I'm still so glad to have met you
But you left me wondering
Will I ever meet you again?
Ever…..
Ever..
Ever.

The Melting Past

Like burning wood
Felt so good
Need to breathe it in
This holy thing
Nobody knows but
Silhouettes glow
On the edge of the world
The secret unfolds
Like whispers
Floating away in the twilight
Our happiness could be heard
For miles and miles in the night
Like the world's never existed
But only begun
In the bedroom we kissed
Beneath the melting sun
Bare feet, alone together
Talked on the phone forever
Trees were sacred once
Now they're gone down, done, just junk
The stars were holes
On the feet of our souls
We found peace in ice cream
And our hope-smothered dreams
Love was a gift

god bless
what a beautiful mess
we look so dirty with our hair in our eyes
leaves splashed with colour slap us with lies
downtown
in the heat of the night
the storm that floods with our past, is born
and in the eye like the rip on your jeans, our hearts are torn
save me
from these blue barricades
behind them i lay, ever so patiently waiting
and the wintriness enroaches into my space
can you
tell me what to do, without feeding words into my mouth?
it seems the more brazen you get, the less i hear you
inner tranquility is as important to my soul as having a tongue on my skin
above us
the dumb clouds open up
and fluorescence of
liquid gold
hardens onto the sky
a godly glue that
outlines the clouds
close the door
try to wander through your head
don't be chained back by
what your mind makes up
gape into
a black, black wormhole
enigmatic glee shall
pull you in
exhale
let your lust waiver itself
into the tranquil furor
it will pacify you
do not
breathe a word
your eyes embrace a passage
to your past and every passion
smile
at every radiance that you see
for it is the key to rapture;
the only window to salvation
Denied

Raindrops of melody splash from the skies
Deceitful stories lay in the dirt
The lights they disintegrate with sublime splendour
We consume the dusk…
Tonight the atmosphere is bursting with warmth
Our tears that ooze from our sugary eyes create a rainbow
The perfection of the moment is devastatingly great
The energy inside our bodies swirls…
Smiling out of context, I look at you
The words that plummet from your lips nearly have no meaning
I stand here, soaking in your wrath through my skin
Like the downpour we disintegrate…

The Something Something
Who's there?
I murmur into the icy, night air
I gasp in attempt to drink in the soft, cool love
That contains me.
I utter into the heaving, murky sky
I almost drop to the earth with the weakness
That dwells within me.
I whimper into the soil that settles around me
I fall with the snowflakes that frolic upon my cheeks
That blush with my tears.
I scream into the absolute emptiness….
Will the slumber kill me?
Will I shut my snow-coated eyes and finally find
That existence is over
And I'll know how to smile?
If I lay here in the mantles
Will you cuddle with me to demolish my grief?
Or would you rather I resign?
My only reason fo
What is this glow that dangles on my window?
You can open your eyes when the sun glimmers through, when the sun shines through
You'll fall, too
When will the fever disappear?
Our burning throats kill, your cat sits in your windowsill, longing to fulfill itself
To be free
More free than the next is the one with the wings
He whispered this to me, he did, he did, but what is freedom?
We did not know
Why are we sobbing, isn't the rain enough?
Down in rain we become everything we try so hard not to be-- weeping willow tree..
Liberate me
Will you teach me to love the beads of purity that rain heavily over us?
