the heart
she is imprudent, irrational
to her keeper, a fickle friend
beguiled - forever -
by the executioner's charm
on the cold block
willingly
she lays her head
her own folly
the heart sees not
until "we" - she and i -
lay bloodied,
where hope is laid to rest
tragedy!

beautiful eyes
smiling faces
behind masks;
oceans, storms,
and ruins

we the helpless,
in our greed
for company
we sold our souls
when darkness
set in
in our desolation
we the invisible
we sold shadows
for survival,
at every turn,
on each road
we sold shame
unloved, and bent
in a merciless world
we sold hearts

i do not hate you
for in hating you
i will keep you
and love you
i cannot
for your love
is my ruin
i need to let go
to separate you
from me
for i need to live

this december, this rain
is full of fire
- fire and smoke.
it's raining
ashes,
- ashes, ghosts,
corpses
of dreams and days
long gone

one day
whey you're gone
in that void
out of you
i will write
laments, and
my dreams;
they'll sing you
like requiems

time heals no wounds
it's you sweetheart ...
you do the fixing
or remain bruised
yours is the choice
take the load off your back
or live bent ...
by its harrowing weight
time helps no one
unhinged, forced down
by circumstance
you pick your "broken"
and rearrange
your pieces
you do the fixing
time changes nothing
it's all you!

The night is
burning
like ...
a funeral pyre
made of memories
In this fire
lay dreams ...
you & I weaved
in spring hues ...
for six months
and a day

you're that
random book
i picked up
and could
never put down
i read you
carefully
page by page
word by word
holding you
like holy scripture
with love
with devotion
studying you
like religion
yet foreign
you remain
you're that
strange book
i found
my story in

Tea an excuse
I'm drinking
the rain, and the gloom
In this cup
I drink memories
there's a silence,
deafening
widespread ,
and frightening
I’m consuming it
I'm drinking
this endless wait
Tea an excuse
I'm drinking
your absence
