You are in darkness
and cannot see

How truly beautiful
you can be

and so I did
what I could

to ensure
the light of the good
deep within your heart
endured

You are far
and much beyond

any fair star
in your kindness,
beauty and friendly bond

You have awoken my heart
to the great and beautiful art
of life and love

and as the dove,
angel of peace
I will fly
and deliver
your blue sky
For you Alessandra

I have stood
and watched
as you have forgotten

I remained a wall
of emotionless colour
as you stirred in your sleep

Unknowingly
you cried
Unknowingly
I comforted

Until our
coexistence
was Impossible

and so
I died

Your existence is a revolution of colour
Of ideas and creation.
A radical paradox of reality.
A heartbreakingly complex story
but
an inspiringly strong
Heart
Jay Ash Aug 2015
True Beauty
Lives in every soul.

Those who seek to enhance it
Often lose it
While those
Who try to conceal it
Only enhance it.
For Amy

i laughed once
a feeling i've not felt since

            the blood i'd missed
                      continued to persist
            the flow would not stop
of that i was glad

and for the second time,
                          that i could remember,
                                                       ­    i laughed.

If i should die
do not say i died for myself
do not say i died for nothing
do not say i died

tell them how i lived
for You
for Them
for my Country
for Love

i never will forget

Late is the hour
but still
I am awake

Alone; a tower
Cold - I think
of many a mistake
Made unthinkingly

My own mind
has become
my worst enemy

And it's a battle I cannot win.
