You see me
    With pity
It lies in your eyes
Plain like a stain
  In your little white lies

     The stains that remain
On your "white collar crimes"
I've ironed over irony
   All to many times

Plain as the veins
  In the whites of your eyes
No need to explain
   I've had my own highs

You see me
    With pity
It lies in your eyes
Plain like the stain
In your little white lies

A softly lit
    Candle burns
Glowing
    Dim
        &
   Bright
As the cool wind
   Sweeps
  Through a lonely night
Who will keep
      This lite alive?
Will we silently
          Watch
    Its dance
Of strife
        Thrashing
Violently
   In the whispers
Of the breeze
    This fire of mine
        Is brought
    To its knees
Flickering
    Hot
       &
       Cold
With grace
        And ease
   Its beauty shines
As the fire
Screams
  And I think
   This flame
       Is more
    Than it seems
In the eye
   Of the storm
As we flicker
     In the breeze

In Somnia
     We don't sleep at night
So we tend to dream in the day
   Never fully knowing
If we're ever fully awake

Today
   I felt an earth quake
And it made my life shake
  & I wondered
        Is this
    My
      wake?

I heard whispers
    On the wind
Of a tornado
    As it spinned
& I pondered
   Are these my sins

A tsunami
    Came on me
And it calmed me
   As it thundered
& I wondered
   Am I really
A
   W
       A
           K
               E

           In Somnia
   We can't sleep at night
So we tend to dream in the day
  Never fully knowing
If we're ever fully awake

I miss you
But someday soon
My aim will improve

The lone fisherman
Casting lines afar
He had me chasing tales
Of far off shooting stars

A fly fisherman
His cast,  his own art
High in the sky
He fly fishes with heart

His lines, so well crafted
I watched him capture the moon
The lone MasterBaiter
Casting lines from his bed room

A desolate dying star
      burns bright
Hot is its surface
    Warming the night

Dence is its mass
As it pulls at the stars
Orbiting around it
Self conscious of scars

The white dwarfs watched
Listened and learned
As the dying star taught
Of a death well earned

Amongst dwarfs and novas
The star radiated wisdom
Passing down secrets
Until it's implosion

   Sinking
        Into
  The fabric
       Of space

Leaving
    A dark black hole

Pulling at the stars
    Still burning bright

The continuum
    Holds its soul
