When words are illusive
I meet you in my dreams
and new languages are born

We all have this moment
Rest assured
You're full with this space
There's no shame,
to take you away
Trees and people in your vision
And you sit
comfortable with your drink
It's okay to sit here
for a moment

Your eyes don't see me
I talk to you and you don't hear me
I can't reach you
A layer of rubber covers you
I would like to tear it up
and yell at you
All my love
All the love you gave me
My pain feeds on
your unwitting words
Fragments of you lost
One tear at a time
Fragments of me torn
Thrown into your oblivion
A crumbling rock
I fight with a sword of nothing
I can't win
I can't save you
I can only love you

It’s come to a point
Where I say things are easy
Because I know it is hard
How I can do something
In order to stay doing nothing
A place where compassion bounces
To and for
Where morals and ideals are hazy, unfollowed, remembered
Where wants can be burnt up just as they appear
It’s come to a point
To believe In
More

To be dull
When you know it isn’t right
But to fight so much
It’ll be a hard upward battle
I’d rather have lunch
There will always be shrapnel
But keeping my focus
Avoiding the bull
I will be bright

Single
footsteps,
in the sand
form behind me,
another reminder
that my journey
is my own
The
waves,
They lazily wash over,
effortlessly
filling my imprints,
restoring perfection
to the beach
But,
although they are
now hidden,
I still know
they existed,
In my mind,
And from the sand
On my feet

I wanted falling in love
to be real
but every kiss is just
a step in a dance
we are the players in and
the writers of
our own tragedy
each morning our hands
curl together
like a flower curling it's petals
inwards
away from the sun
what else is there to do?
but play this game
of never knowing the intent
behind each others words
spoken roughly, then gently,
compassionately or loveless
like a wild roulette wheel
of emotion
we could end it, anytime
but instead we will act
it out until we die
turned away from each other
on a bed
the last words said neither
I love you, or I hate you
just deafening silence,
a blank stare of apathy

You pay no attention to me
I am telling you to cherish me
You have no regard for me
I am telling you that there is no other like me
You act as if I don't matter
I am telling you that when I am gone
You will want me back
Hold dear my embrace
Hearken to my whisper
I am Time
And I will not wait

Somehow I thought it was forever
I can see most of the faces, can't recall all of the names
But the pictures are right there, in my mind
Each and every one, of course, now they're just
Pieces of memory
Every curve of their lips, the feel, the taste
Smooth, pouty, moist,
Now just
Pieces of memory
First glances, eyes caught looking
Then blatantly staring
********** invading, capturing
Now just
Pieces of memory
First dates, sometimes awkward, sometimes flawless
Sometimes it ended quickly, sometimes you caught the sunrise
Those were the best, when you watched the sunrise together
You never wanted it to end
Now they're just
Pieces of memory
Dancing, moving together, hand in hand, body in body
Colored lights, mirrors, more lights
Music you got caught up in
Whatever it was, you got lost in it
It seemed to just go on and on
And then
It's just
Pieces of memory
Every "I love you," all the hand holding
The deep looks into eyes, everything that was whispered
Promises spoken into a trusting ear
Plans that included forever
Carnivals, Parties, Movies
Vacations, Holidays together
Meals with families whose eyes smiled in approval
And of course there was the infamous
" Why don't you stay here tonight?"
Or the ever popular "Let's go back to your place"
Then there was at least one or two or even three or four of these
What do you want for Christmas?
What would you like for your birthday?
Where are we doing for Thanksgiving this year?
And now, now I can see your face
But I can't recall your name
I can see the curve of your lips
But I don't remember what they taste like
I can still see the way you'd look at me, it always made me smile
I remember that first date but, I haven't danced in years
No carnivals, no movies, don't seem to have time for those things now
And that's a shame
Cause everyone needs a good carnival now and again
I guess that carnival is kind of like our love
Pops up out of nowhere and suddenly there it is
With all of it's sights and sounds and bells and whistles
Then you look up one day
And it's packed up and gone
And you don't even try to get it back because you just know
It's gone
It seems so oddly out of place in life that
Now it's all
Just
Pieces of memory
Take heart -
There's always another carnival coming through ;-
