I will take from you
That which you love the most
One extraction at a time
Premeditated
Slow

Demons howl
Cold winds blow
Starting with what encompasses all

Down you go
There you lay
No surgeon’s knife
Will cure this malaise

Tilting your head
Watching the clock
Your soul shrivels
Body rots

I shall kiss you on the head
Bid you farewell
And meet you at the gates of hell

Down you go

Lonely is the little cloud that has nobody to rain on;
He is so free, floating high in the big blue sky;
He sails in the wind, far and wide filling himself with joy and love;
All he wants is to pour his heart out, he has so much to give;
But he is sad because his drops are tears, tears of loneliness;
Loneliness that fills all of his heart, and all of his soul.

Will the sad little lonely cloud ever have someone to love?
Or is he doomed to float above the desert?
His heart getting fuller and fuller, ready to explode;
Oasis after oasis turn out to be mirages;
He needs somebody so badly, and wants to love so badly;
He never cries but he cant help it, the lonely little cloud.

Thugged out since cub scouts.
Fun starts when school's out.
Molly, Mary, and Lucy dearest,
girls who keep my vision clearest.

I"m up, so who's down?
Fools runnin' round fools town.
School night, nobody cares.
We're all magnifying Ms. Mary's hair.

Singing: Crystal, crystal, on my nugs.
Mary Jane gives killer hugs.
Makes you feel all warm and cozy.
Such is merry Mary's mozy.

Molly's always in a rush.
Hair a mess and face a flush
There's music on and always dancing
when I find myself in Molly's mansion.

Lovely Lucy's quite unstable
Smart as any math-enabled
pencil pushing silly geek.
Though Lucy's strong and they are weak.

Lovely Lucy lives to peak.
To test how well her mind can speak.
The circles she see's in the spaces.
In between those hidden places.

She see's faces, only faces.
Names and words just seem abrasive.
For Lucy's not afraid to BE.
The same as you and same as me.

Molly Mary and Lucy dearest.
Girls who keep my vision clearest.
Sisters spawned from Father Mind.
Who married all these girls to mine.

I stare
     transfixed
at the table.
I could care
     less
about the weather
and current events

My eyes
    follow
the lines that
     swirl
and they connect
     together

The waves
    curl around
in gentle meanders
that
     invite
me to play
amidst the grain.

Nothing else
     exists,
the world
     melts
          away.

Our bodies moved in
the way the leaves converse
when the wind runs past
a little too quickly.

The salt of sweat
and the scent of warm skin.
Breaths heavy with
      Mistrust.

Why does a heart love more than one person at a time?
And leave you confused with emotion?
Then it all goes south and you shield your self away from love again.
People can love more than one person at a time, but only be in love with one person no matter what.
If this is true why does our heart not know what we want?
I have this battle of having three women in my heart, and i don't know what i want yet.
I am lost in a sea of confusion, and pain is all i feel!

don't kiss me in the rain
the cool drops of water
remind me of the tears i shed
when i thought you'd never return
so please, don't kiss me in the rain

don't kiss me in the sunlight
it's shimmering rays
remind me of the light you radiated
when you spoke the words
'i love you'
and i was too scared to mutter them back
so please, don't kiss me in the sunlight

don't kiss me in the shadows
the crawling darkness
reminds me of the dark hands strangling me
when i tried to keep my depression a secret
so please, don't kiss me in the shadows

don't kiss me beneath the moon
it's brilliant contrast from the dark night sky
reminds me of how small and alone we are
and how alone i'd be without you
so please, don't kiss me beneath the moon

don't kiss me under the old oak tree
there were lovers once hung here
and souls that weeped from pain
their memories perpetrating our beings
almost making me wish
i had never met you at all
so please
just don't kiss me at all

United our toes
As our blood flows
Ice cream & gummies
Fill our tummies

Sunk in bed
You asked for head
I doved in the covers
Locked lip lovers
Singing house and blues.
In a night for two.

Nothing ever felt better
You moaned
Only together
We make ice cream & gummies
Taste better.

If I love you for a moment,
take up a space in this continuum
with a twinkling of the heart,
let it not be

when I gasp at the brush
of your fingertips slipping beneath
the fabric of my integrity

Let it not be

when your lips skim
the curve of my bones, when you
make my core quiver and release

Let the moment in the continuum -
in the spaces in an expanding nothingness -
Let the moment I love you
be

when your head rests atop mine
on a snowy night in a running car
and your hand presses slightly to my back
with a softly spoken
"Goodnight."
