I will get a moon right there
Where you kissed me
I will pin it with needles and ink
And make the stars watch
As my skin shivers out of the hurt you have kept in me
I will step away and watch from a far
Maybe drink more
Or hold on to my guitar
I will climb every roof and curse the words for being real
I will hold every ocean and swallow every fear
I will keep my moon right there
Beneath my ear
Where it can whisper and I can hear
All the things you have failed to say.

I need a cigarette
I want a pitch black coffee
And a cigarette
I need a window
On the 7th floor
And an empty flat
Streets with chaos and corruption
Allys with secrets that stink
And you out of my head
I want a wounded room in the middle of a clutter
Where the cracks speak the terrors stuck in my throat and silhouettes with night stories.
I want you
Right there by the corner
Where I can inhale you in the dark and steal your scent like a gem I could keep on my chest.
I want you
Out of my body
Yet it is windy
It is dim, lonely and hallow
It is pulsing and it is late
Late enough to sit by the window
Sipping at that pitch black coffee
Waiting to be saved by the morning
Or a cigarette.

If I should tell the world about you
I would plug my heart into an amp
Let the music play
Until the echo turns into thunder
And the earth quakes out of bass
If I should tell the world about you
I would place my hand on your chin
And my body would speak you in shivers and lightning.
There is ache underneath my skin
There is tragedy
There is enough poetry to defy my pride
Enough ornery to stab my own mind
How much stubborn hope could one breath of life carry
How much fire does it take for one chest to freeze
How much more agony could you bring
And how much more could I give
If I should tell the world about you
I couldn't
It would take so much of me
And you have already had enough

They say if you love something set it free
If it returns, it’s yours.
If it doesn’t
then it never was meant to be.
But, often times
I wonder What’s worse?
If our time together
Was a blessing or a curse?
Trying to hold on to something
With hope and faith alone.
Or having confirmation that in
your arms, I never belonged.
How could you possibly decide
the lesser evil of those two?
When every road or path I take
Seems to lead back to you?
Should I close my eyes
And flip a coin?
Or go on living life without ever knowing
If the loss of our love I’d mourn?
Well... all the cards in
my hand I’ve played.
For the chance to see
If you’d fly away or by my side you’d stay
It’s a hard fact of life I have learned
Just because you love someone
It doesn’t mean your love
they deserved
Today I set you free my love
To move on and Soar free
To find your hearts desire
Since it simply wasn’t me
One day I imagine you’ll
Reflect upon our love
I hope you’ll wonder
If by chance it had been sent from above

Son of Peleus
Lord of the sword
Fill my wounds with whatever filled yours
And I will chant of the wars you haven't gone on
We'll spill our drinks for the sake of glory
And curse the gods for failing our story
Son of Nymph
Drain my chest of whom it beats to
Skin it open and tear it apart
I am stuck
Stuck in a ship graveyard
Where ghosts speak my name in a lullaby
Send me an anchor
Pull me aboard
We'll sail to whatever land you command
And match our scars to whatever made us stand
Son of Peleus
Soldier of your own
Take me a rebel of another time
I am filled with wrath
And you have already gone that path

Nothing lasts forever
That's why i won't say never
I keep my heart open
Even though it keeps no hope
And its why i keep my head up
Despite the ugly whether
If you decide you want this
I will be here waiting
If you figure out you love me
I will be here waiting
I want to call you my baby
But im afraid you hate me
Because i dont want to impose
An idea that you dont suppose
Could be truth but we know different
We know its a false existence
You and me can never just be
We need something we know that we won't see
Its because we were raised to believe
In something more than god could deliver to thee

She already knows about metaphors
She knows about cliffs and edges
About how much I loved all
She understood the wilderness I don't want tamed
Gets the fire kept for the hurt you have claimed
I'm a runner
Too broken to stay
I'm a hider
Too scared to play
Chase me around the pines
Find me in the dark
Through the eyes that glow beneath the stars
Catch me naked and touch me where I keep my scars
Then Maybe
Just Maybe
You would understand
Like she understood
Or know
Like she knows
Till that, I will run again
Catch another sunset myself
Find another edge, another cliff
Another metaphor
For when you ask me
Like she did
"Why a fox?"
I would say
Like I did
"I Love Orange"

Everything about him was turned into poetry*

You are not much of a talker
Maybe that's what has gotten into me
Having to look you in the eyes every time you spoke
Reaching for the words you wouldn't slip
Like a treasure hunt
At the bottom of the ocean
Never much oxygen to breathe yet enough heart beat to keep from suffocating
And if I could stick my hand beneath my skin
I would rip you
Like another dissonant string in the middle of a perfect pitch
Pull you out of my ribs and sit away in silence
Tracing back the days to that one night
You caught my neck between your teeth
Bit your venom right into me and left
The way you leave every burning temple
Like a fucken coward
Afraid the fire would burn further than the back of your hand
Or the broken glass would cut deeper into the side of your eyebrow
And I know I've got both your fears buried inside of me
Ready to sting
But they would never tear you apart
Not the way you're tearing me
In silence

Do not blame me for trying to understand
That's like blaming the stars for whatever they had
It's too late they're dead
Do not put that blame on me
I got lost and I can't find my way back
I got tears I can no longer hold back
I got beautiful thoughts starting to turn black
Please see the fear filling my chest and ice burning my skin
I am the angry roar of the storm
I am the motion of the wind
I am the shy glimpse of the sun
I am the human
Blame me
Blame me for my will
for the empty glass I can't fill
For the questions I can't take and the walls I can't break
Blame the light for breaking the dark I have spread
Just don't blame the stars
They are dead
