The beauty of
purity in ivory wings.
That which
an angel takes
leisure time,
bathing in empyrean
felicity.... Oh,
the coolness of a spirit,
is home sweet home.

I wish i had had sense
            when senseless,
I wish i had had a smile
             when i felt enraged,
I wish i had had love
             when i was unloved,
I wish i had had brave when i was scared.

I wish i had had a million dollars
             when i wanted to feed the starving,
I wish i had had a brain
             when i do stupid things.
I wish i had had the power
            when i feel drained,
I wish i had had tomorrow, today,
            when i wish about yesterday.

The lonely path I have known,
No comfort sought,
No compassion,
Scorned pity.
O'er the darkened hill,
Patches of darker blood,
To this pen they are drawn,
My heart controls my hand,
Absence of mind.
The draining bond.
Great mountains remember me,
I wound around you for miles,
After where the sycamore grows,
I sat down right there and stretched my bones.
Listening to the wind, lo the whispering flows.
I'm still searching for myself,
I lost I on the morn of darkest day,
Worries about the morrow.
Searching for something to strangle the sorrows,
That something for myself,
To chase away the shadows

The feeling of
missing you is
permanently
stuck in my
throat,
I keep trying
to cough you
up and
everyone thinks
I'm sick

Maybe I am.

Where best to hide?
Where shall darkness and death abide?
Where to curl up and die alone?
To close my eyes,
Feel now.....more.
Dance as darkness embraces,
Spin the golden thread,
O’ thin despair.
Gravelly moans, pain streaked face,
Can I hide from this dance?
Backbones slowly bending,
Growing to earth,
Crawling soul,
Dread’s painful prance.
Sliver of flame,
Enveloped me, as a wreath,
Cries muffled,
Murmurs:
“Close eyes,
Feel now.....more,
Take this rite,
Bleed, feed me forevermore”
Overwhelmed, I close my eyes,
Overwhelmed, by that second,
That second my heart bursts and bleed,
That second my last, perfect breath is freed.
My crooked jaw,
Hangs free,
Sinister smiling,
At dread’s painful prance,
Thin despair,
Now this is how I dance.

I inhale you deeply
You wake me up
And make me sleepy

My hands all over you
But it's okay cause
Yours are on me too

Arms and legs tangled
Look at us, together
Broken and mangled

As I first taste you
I decide to sample
Each piece, so new

You are wonderful
Idiosyncratic
My kind of wonderwall
