i will wade out
                        till my thighs are steeped in burning flowers
I will take the sun in my mouth
and leap into the ripe air
                                       Alive
                                                 with closed eyes
to dash against darkness
                                       in the sleeping curves of my body
Shall enter fingers of smooth mastery
with chasteness of sea-girls
                                            Will i complete the mystery
                                            of my flesh
I will rise
               After a thousand years
lipping
flowers
             And set my teeth in the silver of the moon

We stayed up and talked late into the night
We shared a drink, we shared a dance

I reached for your open hand
I slept alone, and so did you

Lately there has been a change

Talking to you is like shaving against the grain

You no longer give me that look so strange

This, I must admit, has caused me much pain

The passing of faces
I don't see any people

just memories
and forshadowing

of the coming year.
There was a pre-school party today. I call it the first day of school because it was like "Oh great, now I remember why I don't like school" it's never the work. It's the people.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
I remembered that glorious smile you gave me
while our soaking clothes dripped
and you pulled me into your wet embrace.
Despite the cold,
I think that’s the warmest I’ve ever felt.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
I searched for you in the crowd
and my heart sank like lead
when you were nowhere to be found.

As the rain drops splattered my face,
tear drops quickly followed
because you are gone
and I will no longer be running into your arms.
this is super old and i just found it and liked it so here it is

Oblivion at one end
A life dedicated to be medicated
The other
A void of lost thoughts like a black hole
Mad all you can do is watch
Watch as the pills control them
Prozac now flows through their veins
Never the same person again
