Silver drops of dew splash down
Personal perceptions rule what I see
An immortal moon clutched in my hands
Blindly I sail through an ambiguous sea

Stars were invented by mechanical men
Are memories any more real than dreams?
Presently, nothing's more real than right now
But what we know now is not what it seems

I suffocate when I'm without you,
and I drown in your presence.
I can smell you, I can taste you,
I can feel your essence.

Trust me you are there.
The world constantly loses its meaning
It constantly redefines itself
At a point all is jumbled
Then good is bad
Bad becomes good
And so our world goes around
Changing the people with itself
Change being the only other constant leaving time
And in all the madness we living creatures learn to endure
In this madness created by us
Thus evolving into what we fear
Leading to our demise.
On the bed besides me it was cold last night,
I dreamt of waking with you,
A dream that felt so right,
The loneliness inside with the darkness grew,
The loneliness without you that I now come to fear,
Wish you were here...

The solitary walks on the beach,
The ghosts if your footsteps besides me haunt my imagination,
The warmth of the sunset beyond my reach,
For you I die every moment, my aching heart the indication,
Please don't let this end in a tear,
Wish you were here
I know I’m safe seeing you again each day,
I fear losing you when into the world I set you free,
I wish I could keep you in front of my eyes forever,
To let you never feel lost and alone ever.
So hard to say goodbye,
Leaving you each day,
Never seeing you again scares me,
Parting to meet again will always be.

Wish
I remember how her eyes lit up
At the sight of a flitting bird.
I remember how her eyes looked down
Pretended the harsh words were unheard.
I remember how those eyes changed
When she realized she could be loved.
I remember how her eyes drained
When she found she wasn’t his only one.
I remember how her eyes turned dark
Swallowed, chewed up, released.
I remember how her eyes recovered
And she learned to smile again.
I remember how her eyes changed once more
When she learned who would treat her right.
I remember how her eyes grew tears
When it came to say goodbye.

Miss Entropy
Life, love- why did you leave?
Where are you, darling, I cannot find you but
For your faint shadowed whispers

I mistook you for my beating heart
For dark-black nights sprinkled with
The lights of a night-time city

I mistook you for throbbing music
For flashing lights and crushing heat
And things passed in dark rooms

I mistook you for my reflection
For dark-black eyes that speak stories
And a stranger-face with no innocence

I mistook you for a false Life
For a liar, a thief, a betrayer, a tyrant
A false god to we who are Life-lost flock

Like tender birds in dark-black night we
Fly to places where your traces linger
To only find faint shadowed whispers
Youth....
