Can you hear it? Can you feel it.
ย ย  each bump, each boom.

Do you want to feel this feeling? Take my hand.
ย ย  Listen to angelic songs, travel my turbulent sea.

Do you feel it? This sickness.
ย ย Each stroke, Each mark, Each words, Each Song.

It will never be enough, to express this feeling.
ย ย No poet, no genius, no artist can express this desire.

Take my hand,
ย ย  suffer, lost in unnatural congenital thoughts.
ย ย ย ย ย ย trying to say - " I love you"

White, simply just white.
ย ย Black; simply just black.

Each stroke,ย ย pleasure and sorrow,
ย ย  wanting like a sea among rocks to convulse in your arms.
jasmine? daisy? roses? scents without syllable.
ย ย  used, tattered, licked wax; soft strokes, shivers to touch.

what is this feeling?
ย ย ย ย Longing, unsatisfying,
ย ย ย ย ย ย  so short, I WANT MORE.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Lost in your sea, lost to your waves, lost to your rage,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย I WANT MORE.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย send more; oh god.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย please, oh please.

Count the leaves as they fall,
    brown, gone, dead.  
       I dream of LA,
          under hot warm rain.

I guess its funnier when he tells the joke. . .
   I must have missed the punch line. . .

I guess its better when he smiles. . .
   I must come off as desperate. . .

I guess its not boring when he talks. . .
   I must make you lose patience. . .

My depression is a state of craving eternal sleep.
ย ย  but in a constant hypnagogia's state.
Every night I cry and die, and in my eyes,
ย ย  all I see is you, in all life's glory.
ย ย  all I see is you, in all death's torment.

Trapped in enteral song,
