Your eyes are black

Your hands are red

Grasping, grabbing

Me by the moonlight.

Off in a distance-
An abyss.

I contemplate
How deep I can dive
To swim away- or to
Feel anything at all.

Seaside waves crashing
Violently into me,
As are you.

I let out a sound-
But My feet- they
Can’t touch the
Ground.

So now I float
Above the ground
And it’s hard for me
To ever come down.

Eternally lost- and
Never found.

You haunted me
With just one look-and
Your eyes black
Hands red

Now I lie here-
Not quite alive
Nor dead.

Any road could take you there
you and I,
the 405,
the sunshine of our rain
the storm of our own disaster
the never ending paths
the electric blue skies
the prophetic visions
you and I,
the 405
the clouds are high
Any road could take you there
you and I,
take the ride

I warn the lost soul
On the desolate road-
For he musnt follow
The muse.

I speak ***** syllables
Of truth- for the muse
Wanders lost, seeks
Yet is never sought.

The muse is a femme fatale
An alluring temptress
Of the night

You Seek her  illusions
With unclear foresight

Not all worlds
Are meant to be
Explored

Not all fires
To be lit

We will not be
Rewarded
For every
Road we drove


But instead that
Which we
Walked away from.

I was once a delicate
rose
until your thorn
the ravaging of my body
you left me bruised and torn
The scorn of night
and endless dark
void of light

Blood trickled
down my legs like dripping
juice from a rotten peach

The omens of
the distraught midnight beach



& the only witness
of that night
is the void within
and the stars in the sky

they glitter and gleam
in hopes I carry on
even when
it all went wrong

I prance on your wooden
bed like a fawn in
the forrest of ephemeral desire

You sing to me a lullaby
in the distant landscape
where time melts
and ceases to exist

I heard heaven
is on earth
and the angels are
all around

For without your love,
I was once lost

Now I am Found

We sin only to confess
Reverberation of church bells
In a lonesome alley

Fading Skyline
while you mainline

you no longer shine
you no longer shine
