Crusty mud
cracks
on his back
black dirt dried by a full moon
jailed in a windowed cell.
A visceral yell
crawled down his spine
Arching violently
Over prostrated fetal bones
In cold
whiplash
His back
Snaps.
His eyes awaken.
Yet vacant.
A bloodied
Stare.
His body,
Stiffened
In blood lust
Naked and bare.
They were here.
He felt them in the twilight.
Feeding on him for the night.
Broken scabs and new sores
Remain.
The silence was taken.
The new moon has spoken.
It is time.
He must show,he must listen,
He must look to the walls
To read from his scars.
His fate
Must be told
Now.
They
Will feed
Again.

The counterpoint
I never knew my love,
Till I felt mine in yours.
I barely felt my soul,
Till I saw mine in yours.
Till I felt mine in yours.
I barely felt my soul,
Till I saw mine in yours.
lil miss sunshine
My lil miss sunshine
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And when it pours
We'll walk in the rain
To soothe the pain
And yea it will be alright.
Cos when it shines
I'll still be standin right there
Right under you.
My lil miss sunshine.
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And when it pours
We'll walk in the rain
To soothe the pain
And yea it will be alright.
Cos when it shines
I'll still be standin right there
Right under you.
My lil miss sunshine.
Whispers of Nothing
Yes..I am in love,
He'd whisper back to every wild flower
that grew on the corner of tarred streets.
But only later did he realize
that despite his honest words,
her heart never truly
missed a beat.

Magic
I am not here to
ask you
Why can't you see?
I am here to to show you
What I see.
And if you see what I see.
Magic.
And if you don't
I will see what you see.
And that
Is
Magic
Too.

In between
I am in between
of if onlys and letting you go
but you need me and I love you so
So here I am
in between
revisiting
Insanities.

Behind some tears
Hope
As my heart still beats against this frail chest
As my eyes are wide awake when I lay to rest
As my blood boils,curdles and stagnates with every test
Hope,I keep within for the best.
The best...your happiness,to keep on walking
But who am I kidding,
Just myself here in pieces.
Seeing all your smiles,
your love,
your tears,
your memories...
How I yearn for a few seconds
with you
Several lifetimes in my world.
Time and space are just unproven theories.
You give me Infinity.
But who am I kidding
I am here and you are in love.
My words,crumbling,weak
a failed bridge,a poet with a blunt pen.
All I have left under this wreckage
Is my strength to be there for you.
All I keep for myself
Is some tears in my eyes
and I can't see you
here with myself
At the moment.
All I see is just your face
behind these teary veils
of paradise.
As my heart still beats against this frail chest

Ennui
Just my smokes& I
an overcrowded ashtray& some tunes
my girl's still asleep by my side
can barely hear her breathing but shes alright
all in the right here,right now
no words for war,empty bags in tow
shades for the sun and the clouds ain't moving
a made sinner, a saint worth saving
pockets lined with change
but I ain't complaining
my bills are paid,my chores are done
a closet full of empty bottles
lay in wait for a new date
memories float by but I can't hate
heavy nights with spirits of days bygone
but all that was said was eventually done
Regrets are under a welcome rug
everything else dealt with a shrug
So now
Just my smokes& I
an overcrowded ashtray& some tunes
gotta clean this mess up
But I ain't complaining.
she's still asleep by my side
and everything feels just alright
maybe we'll go for a walk later..

Train of thoughts
When words connect with emotions
Like a train reaching its station
I embark on a journey
To find You,
In
My words
My poems
My Dreams.

My words
From
the pools
of
Insanity
I rose
To
A Shore
To
Read
From my words
set in stone
Carved from
A word
I gave to
you.
I will always be there.
The world starts moving.
And
In
I go
Again

drown

you

Red
Blood
On
tarred streets,
clothes,
faces,
bandages,
floor of an ambulance,
in the news behind some lens.
Falling backwards into this pit of hate
But all I see is the color
Red.

Just Words
Its the days in between that hurts the worst
Doesn't it?
When I can't listen and you have no words to say
Just words.
To connect parallel lines into one timeline
Just words.
To make the future into the present
Just Words
To mold the present into this very moment.
Just Words.
Just Words. ..
And now that I don't have that too,
Can we just lay here
and let the sunset fill us with something new?
Doesn't it?

Where I Lay
There’s my hand on hers
Laid gently so that it won’t hurt no more
I stretch her fingers out one by one
Let some of my warmth linger on her as time slows down
And the countdown to infinity begins
I trace every line, peak and curve
One at a time
Every soft, tender, malleable place
I squeeze hard,till it became pale,and let go
Her palm blushes crimson as life flows back right in front of me
Glowing in amber red racing within lucent skin.
Following vibrations of her pulse beat on mine
I venture further down on a lifeline
Feeling every crease, scar and tensed flesh
And amongst all the ebbed numbness and wringed pain
I find her curled up,lost within a deafened silence.
I lay my head to rest by her side.
I absorb every single piece of the darkness.
I remember.
I take it in.
I breathe.
With her.

Endevours
I fell in love with her honesty
and how she faced every single adversity
Once my eyes lusted for her too much
Now Its her mind that I truly want to touch.
Wrap my arms around her true self
and grasp at every glowing spark that leaves her eyes
hold it close to me even if it burns me
return it back to her when she falls from grace
for her love is a reminder of what I truly can be..

Finding Us
Sometimes,
In a moment of silence
I regret that I might have grown up too crazed too much
I regret that my eyes have a glazed look saying we can’t touch
I regret that I’ve sent out measured words that lacked in deeds
And having put you in a treasure box just to find with easy leads
Instead of putting piece to puzzle in the big picture
I muzzled real thoughts that never really can reach her
Or so I thought
So I became just a loud mouth preacher
Preaching in this two person church but I am just a projector
Projecting my thoughts onto her, never really knowing how to care
Or how to share and that left you in tears
And me with a bottle of jack on a seaside
Without you by my side watching a sunset
Without you by my side
I watched the sun punched out as the sky grew darker
All hunched and burnt out like a 9 to 9 worker
All worn out, falling to sleep in the distant horizon
So I sat, lit a cigarette and pondered my position
And I remembered what you’ve always said
That beauty is in the eye of the beholder
And right now my emotions these tired eyes can’t shoulder
So I parked my thoughts on those waves breaking on boulders
I grew a little bit higher with each new wave break
calling on the sun to break a brand new dawn
and I came back down to the ground at first light with a new sight
Of glorious sunrise
I realized
That she’s alive
And that her minds a beehive
despite her lack of words
And that she is life
Despite our deadly attraction
And her lack of rash action
was our only salvation
But now I know
I know that what she really wanted
was just a moment of silence
No noise
Not advice
from
Magazines, tv shows or relationship books
Just a knowing look,
saying I do care.
Even if I am not here
that I am there.
Just a simple
word or two
and
I will be latching on to that rhyme too,
That heart aching, love making
rhyme
That
is
you
In a moment of silence

The Distance
Your hands feel mine
I breathe
Again
Before death's
ordain.
Your eyes meet mine
I see
again
these dreams
Before death's
schemes.
Your lips touch mine
I live
again
A moment
Before death's
Torment.
I live there
With you
Here
I die here
With you
never
There
I breathe
Again
Before death's
ordain.
Your eyes meet mine

Torment.
I live there
With you
Here
I die here
With you
never
There
In dreams
Love is like a memory of a dream.
The more you try
to figure it out
the harder it is
to remember
Close your eyes.
Breathe.
Let it come to you.
The more you try

Let it come to you.
