I am a storyweaver
Pulling thin cords of lives and dreams
I take the sorrow, take the pain
The bloodied, torn and forgotten
Sit and weave from dusk to dawn
Take the thin cloth to market far away
To sell away these stories and live another day

Oh sanity, how quick you are
to leave me here alone
I don't know why I still call you friend
for you are always gone
Doubt, now she's a real companion
loyal to her core
But you, oh wretched sanity
always leave me wanting more
You look danger in the eye
but quickly turn to flee
Never once as brave as passion
you wish you could be she
One day I'll wake up
and find you gone forever
But will I miss you, dearest sanity
I think not, never, never

I've known you for four years now
But the lighting has changed
From sharp, sterile, startling white
To a murky black and gray
The music pulled us close together
Like a spirit in the night
What will tomorrow bring
A crash or glorious flight

Our life
Chronicled by simple drawings on a page
You are the artist
I am the dreamer
And together
The world is ours to explore
So ride with me
On a paper plane
Until the wind dies down
And we are forced to land

lyrics scrawled across the back of my hand
puzzle pieces of my mind
line them up word to word
and an image might emerge
an image of hope
of dreams wishes and desires
an image of you

flannel shirts and silent stares
knees touch lightly under the table
everyone around knows
but we exist in our own separate world
a bubble unbroken by their expectations
we are what we are
no rules
boundless
just the ebb and flow of our breaths
in perfect symmetry

do not tell me you forgive me
for those worlds i said at 3 am
forgiveness implies that i am sorry
but what should i be sorry for
for telling you the truth
or for making you see it
because yes
you are everything i called you
of that, i am certain
you thought you could shoot the poison into my heart
and leave without a trace
and that i would still be here waiting for you
but you thought wrong
your poison made me stronger
made me stop caring about you
i don't care if one day, you simply stop existing
but do not
forgive me

sunlight's first ray turns gold
every leaf and rock it touches
transforms my imagination
from stone to a raging ocean
i feel the earth beneath me
its heart pulsing with life
and know that with the sun and stars
i might be saved tonight

my strings are broken
and my heart is out of tune
so don't let me go tonight
maybe tomorrow, in the light of day,
i'll be able to mend myself
if not, set me sail on a paper boat
down an open stream so i may close

dreams
clouds too far away
i can see them
i know they are there
buy i do not know how to get there
i burned every bridge i ever crossed
bombed the only staircase leading up
now from the myriad leading down
demons fly up
poised to strike
they drag me down
i fall too far
gone
