Your love is like skydiving,
   an unnerving thought,
breathless & intoxicating
  elevations beyond exhilarating,
  as it transforms life's panorama
    nothing seemed ever the same,
         after the thrill of the fall
It was like a
nuclear explosion
the day vision
caught fire,  
atoms were fusing
  and reverberating
titillated skies were
  in accordance,
the force of power
    by which poetry
       is reckoned,
eyes full of mist
heart ground to grist
at least 1000 lonely
   teardrops kissed
mind overflowing
with notions impossible
then it occurred to me,
   words are unstoppable -
irrepressible as
  hot steam locomotives
   and star combustion,
  waging a crusade 'pon
fire breathing dragons
'tween undulating cloudbursts
       of empyrean's ' stardust
amidst the conformation
       of an unrestrained utopia

nobody ever really
fully grasps a concept
what we know
are merely shadows
just empty projections

we try to make
illusions of convesations
exchanging nods of affirmation
yet are devoid of comprehension

we dine with strangers
whose whims, whose dreams,
whose greatest fears
we think we know
but no

along never ending
mirror walls, we walk
surmising our reflections
as who we are
even how disfigured,
distorted they may be

all we do is crawl
inside ill-lighted caves
pretending to know
what lies ahead
until we stumble
until we're dead
a poem a day
Sweet emotion
Loving potion
Procrastination
What's your situation
Are you in love
Is your love mental *******
Is there love at all
Who will be there when you fall
Just know its OK
Your wounds will heal
and fade away
So don't be scared
Timid or afraid
For love is here to dull the pain
And lift you up
When you are weak
Megaphone you when you speak
Your not alone
And you'll go on
So feel complete
Until the time
Your love is near
Until then I wait for mine

I was the paper crane that you made. What once kept your interest. You thought that I was beautiful, a work of art.

But now you've disposed me like all the other crap that's useless to you now.

*******.
