I caterwauled down the catwalk
meowing and howling
to drown out the call of the void
letting the cats now I'm a catch
to be a pet they could pet
but once I saw the miles to the aisle
I ran way down the runway
setting a manifest for the planet next
unable to be able
to sit still on the window sill
and take in what I've taken on
staring at stars or caring about cars
I pick a solitary peak to perch
and look down on more content creatures.

I know that I will spend the rest of my life with you, for you.
I know that we will spend many nights, both sleepless and slumbering, together.
I know that I will spend every day of my life thinking about you and wanting to care for you.
Society may never accept us and I might never tell my family about you, but if what we feel isn't marriage then I don't want it.
I know what we have is much sweeter than the most saccharin nectars of heaven. I don't care if Satan is my roommate, if that means I got to live with you.

I have a lover..
her smile shines brighter than the sun itself,
her sorrow is deep as seas..
she fumbles her words and cant say the things she means
but i know she knows how much she means to me.
but lately things haven't been so peachy
as if the fruit of our relationship has turned sour..
my words are like fire and she feels like glass
just a fall away from crumbling..
She takes the heat of my words at a point blank range
and i'm so sure that she's ready to leave the stage
but she doesn't..
she stays.

we do not write poetry
we write mirrors
which are held up
to curious faces
who read
looking for their
own reflections

Bread pudding and cake
Sweets so sweet
They make my teeth rot
But you’re even sweeter than that.
Because darling, you make my insides rot
And what could be worse than that

These nights,
As I’m listening as people bleed themselves into their art
I wish I could do the same..
These nights,
As I long for something I cannot decipher
I wish I knew what it meant..
These nights,
So pure so unadulterated
I wish it would last forever.

Beautiful boy
Fairytale frog
Stupid girl
Like a loyal dog
A magic gem
that lost it's shine
It ceased to sparkle
When you weren't mine
A secret place
Too long lost
Heart of gold
Bitten by frost
A special love
that's disappeared
Now there's just me,
And hate, and fear
The star that shot
Left me here alone
With nothing else to do
But make my way home

I see him there
But he doesn’t talk
He finds me staring
And turns around to walk
Is this what we’ve been reduced to?
Ignorant bliss - solely for you
Shackled to our bonds
And surrounded by brambles
Like sand castles by the sea
Strong foundations crumble
My hand shakes, my pen breaks
But I am not suppressed
Tearing grass and filling pages
With a force I never knew I possessed
Feeling unwanted, ignored and lost
I sink down with the approaching dusk
Losing myself in the thick mist
My identity becomes a mask
My lips start to quiver
Because you’re right there
But you’re looking right through me
I realize, with a shiver
Nothing remains, all is lost
My efforts are in vain
Pain and twangs of sadness are all I have
When you are washed away in the rain
