Who am I in the eyes of most people;
A flower, something more dour?
In my eyes you are a flower.
You've always been a flower,
maybe a sunset?

...
Tenant Aug 2019
...
wishing you were here
Pictorial displays of pixilated canvas
pictures worth a thousand words
But.
Time with you is worth a thousand,
Images;
What's left of a fleeting moment.
Moment.
Two meanings
Brief/important

Galactic seas beaming on starlight yet seem empty
Everything seems empty
Inwardly directed infinitely
Empty space is-

Iris
Tenant Jul 2019
Eye lids see pupils centered iris rings
wondering where the iris be
plant with sword-shaped leaves
A cloud nymph goes unseen
Iris forming rainbow seas
Purple planted petals beam
Iris reflected sorrows weep
A goddess, part of your eye, and a flower all three.

To be far-flung

War and peace
Tenant Jul 2019

A rush I must get higher
Boring scenes and stagnant beings
how we yearn for war and fire
Peaceful days make living not
Waring days make dying rot

Vivid dreams
Tenant Jul 2019
Dreams of ecstasy
Saturated images flow by in still frame
Tunnel visioned in a kaleidoscope cave
Titillated brain stimulated in loops of silky velvet touch
Iridescent skin
It glitters closely but seems so distance
Is it her face?
It's featureless
unequivocally so, but then what's the definition
She's all color
Stomach, hips, the groves
Cut deep blood red purple and blues
Everything is exploding
Cascades of color rain down in gas clouds

brief lesson in physics
Tenant Jun 2019
A temporal anomaly
Existing in a superposition
Your sound echoes in my ear
Wave like particles collide whenever you are near
Quantumly entangled
Exposing my thoughts faster than a photon of light
You glow more so than electrons energized starbrights

Love loves again
Tenant Jun 2019
Meandered path
He finds me again
Love's course maneuvers untouched by will or whim
yet he finds me again
My loves unbounded,
Without limits
Perplexed and bewildered

Bagels and cream cheese
Tenant Jun 2019
trying not to be subversive
but all I can think about is how those curves bend
feeling hedonistic
Hippie aesthetic contrasting my forlorned apathetic
visage

You've got me pleasure-seeking
Ostentatious displays of intellect
But im feeling decadent

Lay a kiss on my cheek
Soothing lips like lavender and peppermint

What makes her beautiful
Tenant Jun 2019
Brown skin like the bark of an oak tree
Her hair Cascades the way the willows be
Monochrome eyes my grayscale lady
Bewitched onlooker-what a peculiar aesthetic
comprised of perfect unity
Or, is it her disunity?
Asymmetry

Never leave the house
Tenant Jun 2019
Can this be my candy kingdom?
Solipistic modifier
Confectionery sweets make my teeth feebler
Weaker
the confines of my mind let me linger

Why can't I stop Abstracting
Is that a bad thing?
What is real and what isn't
Catch me navel-gazing

introspective nonsense
ruminating.
Can it be illuminating?
My mind feels fuzzy

I'll tell you one thing
...
Could this be my candy kingdom?
pondering.

Love

/Sam/
I miss you
      1. Long car rides to the same places,
           conversations about things you don't
           understand; the way you feel when I
           grip your inner thigh, the way I feel
           when you run your hands through my
           hair.
Tenant Jun 2019
