We're all castaways here, from one storm or another.
You are becoming my sense of home, one that I don't feel like abandoning.

False eyes cast shadows across the glint of a dark horizon. A stained mattress and a trace of senselessness. A vacancy and a void. Prospects of chaos. Overbearing amounts of black coffee. A box of aged slides, projected onto a brick wall. Nerve endings. A small beginning.

spectral
scuffling along the grassy path. worn out and wondering. wandering and wandering. calmly morbid. lost in the thick scent of pine trees and dead leaves. shatter my bones and leave me to the crows.

Washing my hands clean of the marks I no longer want to see.

Untitled
~ This morning drifts upon scattered leaves as tiny raindrops fall the eaves from clouded form in shades of gray when sunlight hides its shine away The flowers droop of garden share neath willow branch and dampened air with spider webs in woven strand mosaics draped across the land And sparrows lie in huddled rest on folded wing within their nest A dreary day of tempered mist when colors found are darkly kissed Yet as I gaze into your eyes my thoughts begin with azure skies, sweet buttercups of golden glow in meadows green their petals flow Of butterflies and bumblebees like rainbows float through emerald trees For every beauty there might be I find them when you smile at me So bring the rain and gloomy faire For in my heart I shall not care As all my days begin with you and there is not a better hue

Bring the rain
uncovered comfort in empty nothingness. outer space and fields of wildflowers. drunk on orbits. jumping off skyscrapers filled with dust. consuming vases overfilled with memories and scattered pieces of home. dark matter summoning tranquility.

My thoughts are as loud as a derailed freight train.

Derailed
i once read where someone said 'we run from rain but sit in tubs filled with water.' and since that moment, on days where teardrops fall from the sky, i have not skipped out on letting them kiss my skin and melt into my hair because i want to feel everything i can in this mundane life before -

running from rain.
your hair is unruly and unkempt and i can't seem to form a coherent thought. your very being is a colorful illustration that i could study endlessly. let me drink you in. i promise not to leak. i will savor every drop and never let you flee.

submerge
there is a courtyard behind the abandoned hospital. vines crawl up the walls like cancer; like a sickness that cannot be contained. just like my irrational eagerness for pertinence. disconnect my conscious thoughts. make this infection disappear.
