Madness
keeps me sane
Writing words
which blur seamlessly
into one another
keeps me tame
Art saves
my soul
sets it on fire,
elevating
my passion
higher
& higher

The wind blows
my happiness
away
I solemnly
wonder
why it can not stay
like grasping onto
a fleeting feeling
I realize
it's always
leaving

Love is not
Rough hands
Blood stained sheets
Mind of fleet
nor
******* sin
Let the best man win
Love is not
The dimming of the mind
The darkening of the shine
For that is lust
That is lust
Never trust
The promise of lust

Words pour out
onto the page
words bleeding
into one another
like vermillion
blood
My heart pours
onto the page
I write
for you, not
for me
for
the ones
blinded
by that which
blocks
their vision
but they
can't see
nor grasp
it
fully
I write for
you,
not for me

Black tar
Daydream
China white
Fiend
Gold in
His veins
Soft touch
to
take away
his pains
Gal of the night
I do what you like
Far out my mind
he's
Still in my sight
