Though we may be meant for different people in another time Let me slip off your heels while you loosen my tie Till the potion wears off let’s live the lie

Tristan und Isolde
I feel like curling into a ball I miss myself I miss warmth Happiness I miss the feeling of a first loves kiss The tingling in my fingertips but all I’ve left is dark and grey

Cold rainy nights
I tried to find love In a bottle In *** In drugs & cigarettes A place to forget A place to rest But my heart still aches And now I’m just hopeless

All the wrong places
Perhaps I’m just a mess Or maybe I’m just lonely But some nights I feel bitter I crave for you to hold me

Just for a moment I was a time traveler Nicotine, coffee beans Trudging through the Ardennes Running down some cobblestone road I still don’t know where it goes Just for a moment I was a woman A slightly distorted version of myself Strong cheekbones petite nose What are those? Just for a moment Seventy-three years ago A machine gun in my hand Making my last stand Just for a moment I was truly myself   Something I’ve never felt My soul is crying out

Ain’t it funny What? How we write poems About people Who will never Get to read them To make ourselves Feel better silence Crazy, scary, beautiful Love’s a lot of things... Funny? Yeah it’s funny

You always point out every flaw dad Always reminding me of everything I do wrong You never cared how I felt dad Always comparing me to someone else I already know how stupid I am dad Believe me I’ve been told thousands of times That’s why I want to move away from you You’ve made me feel alone dad While still saying you’re my friend I cared but you didn’t That was my problem I accept responsibility for that But the hardest part about letting go is that I’ll never hear you running after me Deep into the cold

Just smile my friend Smile till the end You mustn't be so vile I know it's been a while But you were true and bold You had peace in your soul The love still changed you It happened to me too But hope still remains To wash away the pain So smile my love Smile

What is a poem but a maze of powerful words that only the poet can truly understand What is a poet but a man a pencil in his hand with every word he engraves upon her skin he is pulled further and further in lost he is no more left at the mercy of her soul forever adrift in his words her words her

a pass in which the matador keeps his feet and legs absolutely still while slowly swinging the open cape away from the charging bull
