Alleys and ashtrays, flesh and bone,
I woke up next to you and felt alone,
Still searching for everything I’ve lost,
Or some change to show for all the cost,
But I can’t make amends for all I lack,
Can’t hold my breath, can’t turn back,
As that circle meets us where we end,
And destiny breaks us where we bend,
My head was sirens, concrete and snow,
You slept beside me as I let you go.

she was the smell of gasoline and bubblegum
a sweet rancidness that filled my lungs
made me choke, on her
the aroma of Then
lingering even Now
more time passes
memories slow-burning
to ashes, in planters
new life emerges
more time passes
the Future awaits
patiently in peace
as Now blooms,
lives, dies, passes
rhythmic life
let me forget
as time passes
smell new roses
let me live in the rhythm of Now
rather than swaying against it.

Now.

I am.

popping bubbles
burning gasoline
moving forward
as time passes.
words words words
weird inspiration
weird words weird words
let's explore! the weird worlds words

Your insults still linger through my brain adding more to my  personal pain. Creating no worth, just jabs at my self doubt so take your presence to the next route.

Wonder

You are a wonder,
One I can hardly describe.
Perhaps like the cosmos above our heads.
With galaxies burning in your eyes,
I trace constellations across your skin.
A smile cuts across your face like a shooting star,
Glittering, burning, a sight to behold.
Laughter bursts from your chest,
So bright and warm,
Supernovas fizzle out in shame.

You are a wonder,
one I will always hold dear.
Like the cosmos above our heads,
I’ll always look at you in sheer awe.
With your luminous heart
With your halcyon mind
You are a wonder
And you are mine.
