Warm night stretches its silent breaths across these stagnant hours
They ripple like an unworldly ocean that tempts a sailor’s most strained reach
But my sails are torn through with a wanderer’s navigation
Upon this endless sea of patient hopes and horrors
And I close my eyes dream tight in sewn with such a fright
That upon their parted shutters I will still see nothing
Because your smile feints just over that intangible horizon so taunting
Smile into the day as I pull myself through the dark
So I took on the edge of the world, the edge of sanity
Clutching at the crags to pull myself out of this dull droned deep hell
Above the clouds into my florid reveries with fragile flight
Although I lost all names and labels of retold in folded certainties
I finally made it through the strong woven break
But who’s to tell me when I am to ever wake?
Definitely upon indefinite travel, this weary and constant sailor says
Not even you.

Neptune
Eyed baby
I'll admit I'm
Light-years past crazy

I'd give
The Galaxy
For you

Juniper
Burned Haley's
Comet as it
Lit up our daily

Blues
Set in our awkward shoes

Mind-tight dreaming
Garnished with gleaming
Silence kept screaming
In hope for the breaking word

Spark-wet
Drenched breaths
Under the tree
That murdered death

I'd make
The sun burn
For you

Grass-stained
Sky-dressed
You leave me to
My obsession's mess-y

Blues
Set in our awkward shoes

Mind tight dreaming
Garnished with gleaming
Silence kept screaming
In hope for the breaking word

Violent heart rate
In nerve-wrecked state
Tempting all fates
To go back on their word

And I say
Goodbye, Cornea,
Goodbye
And I say
I love you, Cornea
Goodnight

And I say
Goodbye, Alice,
Goodbye
And I say
I love you, Alice
Goodnight

Mind-tight dreaming
Garnished with gleaming
Silence kept screaming
In hope for the breaking word

Violent heart rate
In nerve-wrecked state
Tempting all fates
To go back on their word

Neptune
Eyed baby
I'll admit I'm
Light-years past crazy

For you

Off this crumbling frame
Chance the fall
Into your gaping chest

Followed my bleeding
Dreams on wing
To lay where you rest

Slow burn
With veins in the wall
I’m home

Nerve’s knots braved my steps
This mad chase
Through the maddening reign

Nightmares gored my eyes
I felt through
To catch your throbbing name

Thirsty
Ink-bitten hands
I’m home

Of all my hours
That you fill
I drown
My highest hopes
Black and blue
To keep you

Throw me across the sun
Ashes to ashes
******* away

Upon the beat and break
Of your hell hung heart
Breathe me awake

If you
E’er dare
To run

My beautiful beast
With rapture blushed skin
Drenched with sparks

So demure in your
Wild whipped temper
Thick sick of dark

Razor
Feather sewn arms
I’ll wait

Come on, Hasten haste
Search the threads
Lies woven in your spine

Rip the sutures free
Will you feel
Once again, in time

Patience
War worn back
I’ll wait

Of all my hours
That you fill
I drown
My highest hopes
Black and blue
To keep you

Throw me across the sun
Ashes to ashes
******* away

Upon the beat and break
Of your hell hung heart
Breathe me awake

If you
E’er dare
To speak

You defy to **** death
This fevered wonder
Your mirror’s pride

In which you lay yourself
To bed and to sleep
‘Hind hollow eyes

Will you
E’er dare
To fly
Andrew Robinson May 2010
Dreams searching for your face
In the void that buries my hollow wake
That laps in wander’s waves

Lost light that sears my eyes
Null noise that deafens the shallow skies
I’ll come to you save time

Treat these fibers that thread my heart
And follow the longest drowned in dark
Manifestations of mad marks

Beat these words that collapse my tongue
And fall into my worn whispers’ lungs
Calibrations to combustion

I’ll be the machine
To tear the heavens down

To the dust that creep our breaths
Of our love and woe
I’ll play the hands by care’s road
From the rapt cinders and smoke
Of my heart and soul
Your rise as our delicate beautiful beast
Alone

Please shatter through these panes
That tear apart our fading frame
Hold tight onto your name

And throw tears through the glass crime
That wall in all our confined lives
Exhale, explode, survive

I’ll be the machine
To tear the heavens down

To the dust that creep our breaths
Of our love and woe
I’ll play the hands by care’s road
From the rapt cinders and smoke
Of my heart and soul
Your rise as our delicate beautiful beast
Alone

Take us home
Past all hell
Take us home
Andrew Robinson May 2010
My words’ hands’ tease:
They annoy the threads
Who clasp the right - to left -
Of your tender chest.

How, if well said,
For your parchèd Eyes,
Divine - yearning to wake
Your Life for Life’s sake.

So bleed thirst th’earth;
Heavens’ Hells gore torn
By juvenile Crush,
By me, in touch.

Wisp knives are born,
From Rebel Tear’s trail,
To Love - and caress;
Kind between your *******.

Your crust proves frail
As it parts - to screams,
Exposing Young Heart, bare,
Exposed: to my stares.

Naked your dreams
Love, **** is your Soul.
I smile, to death’s sweep,
If your wings, you keep.

How cleanly celestial, Loved, your Trues;
Gladly my veins for the stunning, fair muse!
How gorgeous the flow of color and sound;
Madly I adore when you deny th’ ground!

This sophisticated dimension of vision, this display;
This spectacular spectrum fusing Winter Night - Summer Day!
Now return an absolute glance, brave, in the Looking Glass, New,
It is only you….
