moonlight as an astronaut
sunken eyes and an untame mind. eyes grow pale with the sun, the universe turns black all at once. free fall into oblivion, lick the edge and feel the pain. i can't stop the rain from sinking down my face. this love is all i had, now i just spin around in place, wishing to be alone. it's just a phase, so i say, but everything is dull. the wind pulls through my throat speaking words i've never known. my eyes won't close, the brain says no. can't stop thinking. the sun is devouring my irises, blinded by the deafening silences. what's happening? where's my mind? i can't keep passing by with i'm fine.

sorrow
darkness signals the retreat into the shell of sea-side sounds. they whisper innermost thoughts of blindness and profound seconds of suspended fallen flowers. the recluse can see more in the deepest night than the lightest day. thoughts circle with the stars, as the atrophy of apathy begins and the menagerie of faltering frowns follows.

silence between the words
everything we do is selfish and to boost our fragile egos.

purpose
soul growth of a tree, the leaves drop with every word you let free. leave a barren old twig, knowing you did what you must and said what you hid. but remember, don't leave without a twirl or a spin of the heart, or the gift you have to give will stay forever, from this world, apart.

must, if you leave
how the flowing wind squeals at the sound of your concrete smash. fool, the wind may carry you on Her back, but your  infintismal against the screeching yelp of Her translucent lips. that fire smitten jungle howler will blow your face off.

wind
seashell minds, if you listen closely you can hear the salt roars of oceans. the emerald ebb and flow of ideas that adds spice to our lives. we are all drops of liquid fantasy in this untamed sea of life.

storytelling
hope is a reflection held in a tear drop. a mention of beauty in a wet ball of fear or sadness. when all seems unfit, a reminder that here is Nature with a warm touch of beauty to quell the despair.

hope
question mark eyes, dust specked with anguished lies. his graceless feet are always dancing but not to his soul's beat. songs sung with unknown notes, so he drowns himself in the bars that are shown. perhaps one day, he'll read the sheet music, but for now he's still dancing to the mysterious tune and he always will. stuck with what he's got, tortured by what he sought. that's the tune of the world.

surrendered dreams
quicksand waves of sunsets as I sink into umbral moments of internal skull watching. pictures play upon my eyelids, dancing to and fro-- whispering foreign thoughts to my neurons. as i open the curtains of my physiognomy, light prickles my corneas, signaling the retreat of my midnight adventures into the darkest caverns of my mind.

so(u)lspots
crystalized veins, and a moon rock heart-- only shooting myself in the foot, but i like to watch the blood flow. the stubborn stalk doesn't need water to grow. fool of my own demise, but you have to die to reach heaven. so i'll stick to my guns no matter what.
