On her velvet lips
Reddest at night,
Before the slips
Of careless slight,
A smile that grips
My heart tight
Plays, and strips
Me of each right.

As the sweet moon pale,
Veiled by clouds,
Vanishes, without fail,
Gather the crowds;
Whispers of my heart frail.

My lies, I see, are pieces of me,
jagged and sharp;
Reminding me what I'd like me to be;
They fall from my fingertips,
With each press of a key,
And blink onto a screen,
To stare back, in disgust, at me.

Hope, more than a prayer,
Is believing life must bear
A promise of joy till end,
So we may to morrow, tend.

Flower buds gathered light
In dewdrops that hung
On soft petals; their right
To beauty, taken in young-
Morning hours; a sweet sight
For songbirds that sung
Of love born, before night
Came again with dark tongue
To claim light's bloom, in spite.

In youth, with bright eyes
We see a world that can be.
With age, battered by lies,
We see all it will never be.

It's quite strange but nice
How it's odd and precise.
You can gun with a gun,
And a run can long run.
And an 'S' can turn laughter
To nothing short of slaughter.
If you're hot, they will drool
But be warm, and stay cool.
Head off with your head up
Face it head on, so heads up!
It is a deep and rich mine
For all to mine, yet mine.

The day from sunrise
Cuts sharply with light.
The night in dark guise
Hides all from the sight.
Between them but lies
The gilded lie, twilight.

Clumsy fingertips
Tremble in the dark.
Quivering, our lips
Kiss each birthmark.
Each firmly grips,
Passion's bright spark.
Night's youthful slips,
Memories deep mark.

What's fair, and also true?
Nothing; Truth brings us sight.
In the dark, stay me and you;
All we dream, vanish in the light.
