alive on purpose
what was i thinking? it's always been you. my mind is scattered, my soul is battered, but there's light coming through. maybe i already knew: it's always been you, but now that i see, i see nothing else except the times you see me when i see the truth that it's always been you.

rising light
i don't trust myself the words that slip from my trembling lips the actions fulfilled by my shivering hands the thoughts that run rampant through my reeling mind like rivers cutting through a winter-stricken forest and here i sit shaking because here i sit freezing i don't trust myself

winter forest
a single candle can burn down a house but a simple breath can hinder the flame. there was a spark full of hope and light but words breathed now sends us back to the same.

"just friends"
doing ugly things with pretty people having bad ideas with good sensations destroying yourself with pleasure screaming red stains on silent porcelain piercing floods in the season of droughts destroying yourself with yourself

as I sit here watching
floating words and touchable sounds let them fly let them be and soon you will feel them in your bones in your soul until one day you find you are made of this you are the vibrations the melodies and you may even discover that you can float too

to be music
how ignorant of you to suggest that only seven wonders exist in this world; for you yourself are a wonder. you are a wondrous mystery full of depth and light. so dont you dare, don't you dare limit the world and don't you dare limit your wonderful self

8 wonders
You are everything I crave   But you won't even meet my gaze Your eyes are filled blue with fear I see it glisten in the corners of your eyes when you don't think I see you You're so afraid of letting yourself be seen You recede into your blue nature And I'm desperate to pry you away from your safety net of seclusion But I'm frightened that you'd crumble into dust without such security So That will be the way that we remain Me, in velvet love with the idea of you And you, too consumed in fear to cure my disillusion.

Velvet
from the beauty of the break of day to the enchantment of the night, if his eyes find these words I pray they shall find in them delight: at the sparkle of the velvet sky, at the day-lit cotton blue, at the very apple of his eye, at the girl who sees him true; I long that his ears hear the song, the duet of wood and brook that grows in defiance loud and strong for the branches people took, for the wanderer between the hills, for the two birds far apart, for the battle cry so loud and shrill of emotion that swells my heart.
