we are 
push and pull

both beautiful 
and ugly

what we are
lies primarily in the timing

my sighs cut through time
    like splintered winds
releasing buried sorrows

~•

~•

I am the warmth
of every season

teasing wisps of
perfumed seduction
between streams
of grandiose dreams

wrapt in tangled desires
dancing in moonbeams
  with a visceral greed

I long to crush your screams
flesh to teeth
above and beneath
the warmth
of every season

~ too scared to make my dreams come true
my doctor says i only dream in blue ~

hers were eyes
that teased the sun
from its slumber,
that made a mockery
of half-moon

I nailed my spirit animal to the wall and walked away
purring like a kitten lapping up a bowl of corn flakes
for ****'s sake, he always led me astray
what's his purpose anyway if he can't keep me straight
happy new year to me
time to live life my way
doin' it my way

Picking lights from a tree
holidays aren't meant for you and me
so I am left standing
in a world growing dark
picking lights from a tree that's lost its spark
