A desperate, silent scream
Makes restless, waking sleep
A night scarred by a dream
That my open brain did reap.
You were there and everywhere
The flowers were to bloom
On the breeze and through air
Shedding sweet perfume.
But then the sun, it went away
And I saw what must be true
The clouds rolled in to my dismay
I saw you’d left me too.

“For who can bear the whips and scorns of time?
The pangs of despised love?”
For sins the soul lays pray
To the vultures hovering above.
The body’s insides left to melt
In the sun’s tenacious heat.
While the heart aches from pain dealt
And barely keeps a beat.

Play with words
And you’ll be tricked.
Write them down
And they will run.
Speak them
And they will slip.
Admire them
And they will sing.

Never a word I’ve feared more.
Never needed a label for adore.
Never a word I’ve desired for.
Never needed a word to make my heart sore.
This four letter word that strikes fear.
A four letter word that I desire to hear.
This four letter word that can burn and sear.
A four letter word that’s always held dear.
What a four letter word can do to the soul.
What it can do to a heart of solid coal.
What a four letter that people extoll.
What is this L-O-V-E that we try to control?

Love struck right through my chest.
And there it planted a seed.
No matter how much I protest,
It crept up and grew like a ****
It walked up when my back was turned.
How very unkind how very impolite,
It leads me only to get spurned.
And brings with it lonely a night.
Oh why did love do such a thing?
It likes to pick on me, love does.
Did it have to pluck each heart string?
But for the best it truly was.
For if love had decided not to creep at all,
I might have decidedly turned away,
I might never’ve taken down my wall.
Sneaky love has given me a chance today.

Why not give me your heart in exchange for mine?
Then, by next month, I’ll be your Valentine.
It’s just like something from a book,
Where I melt with just one look.
Why should I see the rain fall and not feel it?
My heart is unguarded so please just steal it.
There’s really no need for a key.
Why not just ask? I’ll give my heart willingly.
My heart skips a boom at that feeling,
And makes my dreams look super appealing.
Unbearable thoughts rage like an infection,
And I’m waiting for the antidote connection.
If I don’t want to risk the chance of rain,
How am I going to get a rainbow?
So let’s go for walk and you will see,
That where you really belong is with me.

If the whole world rains
It’s gonna kick you when you’re down.
How do you stick to it through the pain,
When the ***** so high you’re gonna drown?
There must be something wrong
When these thoughts tend to circulate.
And every second the list grows long,
It gets harder for me to concentrate
And you still wipe away my tears,
*** you know it’s really the world I hate.
Your touch leaves no room for fears,
And then you carry some of my weight
When you’re that trapped, you can’t run.
Buried underneath it gets easy to hide.
I never take help from no one.
When someone asks, I find I lied.
I promise I’ll try to get better,
But how could I really guarantee?
Way ahead, I see bad weather.
I’ll have to remember you are with me.
So would you please stay,
To wipe my tears away?
Because you know it makes the world
So much harder to hate.

I picked a poison apple, and knowingly took a bite,
Only to find it made me wise.
Kind of a twisted Cinderella- or was it Sleeping Beauty?
What was the story again?
I can’t quite remember- whatever.
The point is, I don’t need saving.
That tasty morsel gave me a choice
To be with or without Eden.
The choice was to leave my fins
For the freedom of feet on land.

As I go about my day
I think about the way
I stumble and studder
And my heart starts to flutter
Whenever he comes near
I forget about my fear
that he should ever go away.

The hollow wings of birds that carry through the air
Gliding cross skies that glow golden at dusk
The falling light in its final hours caresses the branches
Of trees in a distant grove where a scent
Lifts to the cloud-filled heavens
With faint aromas sweet.
