i wanted to get drunk and write poetry.
unfortunately only the latter has succeeded but
i think i found a way around it.
You see
Your name has fermented enough in my heart
to when i speak about you i taste nothing
but bitterness.
so maybe after a few more pages
about you and me
i'll finally be set free.

The Night
sparkles somewhere....far
lit only by
the tail of some falling star.
and under it
Two hearts expend,
all that they thought....
they thought their hearts could send.
and between them
The oaken child
who stares up at the sky
wishing to be wild.
and in his hand
a pen tightly held.
a caligraphical cage
another passion quelled
And Above Them All
     Snow.............. Slowly..... begins..... to.... fall.
i joined Hello Poetry this year in April
And i have found nothing but love and wonderful people
and i will stay here. I will stay. Thank you all for 2016. Thank you all.

For you.

Play chicken
with my feelings.
Led me to believe this was love
then leave me reeling.

If a magician disappears
never to be seen again,
is he not the greatest
man of the time?

Or is he not,
the loneliest man
in the peak of his prime?

Return. Light, not blinding
Dispel my fear, my terror
of
loneliness (in hiding)
I. I. I.
Taste, nothing but ashes.
The hard fought flame called:
Us.
But as all fires die out
And all hope. All trust.
We must forgive (or at least forget)
We must return to dust.
