Bright white stars Shining down on shadowed wet grass Under a canopy of sweet almond trees Your bright ebon skin Unencumbered, Just as sweet With a couple of rain drops on your cheeks Eyes doused in mirth Cause I'm soaking wet But all I can think of are those bright stars shining from your twilight gaze

Deep Dark Night
Up, down, round and round With sweet smiles and crescent eyes Heads swaying, arms waving It's what they'd call a good time We're just trying to have fun Up, down, round and round Careless footsteps and delightful shrieks Muscles tensing than relax It's loud and proud We don't care what they think Up, down, round and round Hair whipping frantically Fists pounding excitedly It's alright as long as they're entertained We don't need a reason Up, down, round and round Tears gliding down a broken face Rough hands pull up, push down, then kick around Scrunched up minute body accented by shallow breaths and muffled yowls Up, down, round and round It might be a little cruel But they all say life's unfair We're just trying to have fun

The memories dance around in my head The happy times which have passed Serve as my one distraction Serve as my liberator From the searing fire Contained in my skull It tempers the crashing waves Bursting from my chest Yet, This is all digression I thank the happy ones I thank the liberators For without them I would be burned alive I would be drowned They keep me afloat They stifle the flames So, I cannot help but say Thank You

Thank You
If I put pen to flesh And impress my thoughts in ink Perhaps my skin will absorb the essence of my scrawls My hopes, dreams and loves Sunk into my pores Become a part of me
