warm-hearted it's true
minds race thinking of you
electrified
bona-fied
an amazing grace
to this horrid place
altruistic affairs it seems
an alluring demeanor with ease
you burn aglow
with sweetness unbound
a lasting impression
you leave me
butterflies a flow.

Bring me your tired souls,
Of flesh burned
Marked limbs with numbers,
Age is nothing to me.

Still thy beating heart
Your song trembles,
Words of melody
Writes thy voice.

To thee a single petal
Of motionless thought,
Coalesce into thine mind,
You are the one.

Surging distress,
Lament one’s dying love.
For thy heart beckons
It’s hymn to me.

Indulge thyself
Into the sea.
Searching for love’s
True self.

i'm still free
uncaged
this bird
flies on.
Hold tight
for bitter
relief only
tastes sweet
with stability.

Graceful
bird
dance on
wind floors,
cut up feet
never felt
so good.
breathe in
the light
you seek.

Little bird
no need to flee,
fly on to freedom
warmth embraces
those in need.

Who, am I.
I am then
For what I should be
Could be
Would be
Now, not before,
If I ever was.
When now is near, not far,
And why is I,
Too many times ago.
But always I am thee,
Me and we in past tense
For tomorrow is merely
An hourglass.

when will the aching waves stand still in the wake of your heart,
when will the tides lap away the salted tears that rest upon your cheeks.
please, stay on the shore of my dreams where your love calms my sleep.

you held my hand as if it were gold,
precious strokes of calm caressed by fingers
reassured waves of adoration.
our portals filled with each others essence
warming every inch.
close, wanted you close, no closer
soft fabric brushed flushed cheeks
burrowed in infatuation.
all i can think about,
is you.

Memories flood hearts....
Cascading wet tears over jagged sides...
Clench into fists, nails corroded with rot ....
Trembling lips part, release suffocated sounds....
Knees buckle to the floor....
Heated face stopping leaky eyes....
Wind sweeps knocking hands to clear stained boards....
Resonating chill reverberates off walls....
Eyes shut tight....
Fingers clutch weeping pump....
Allocate from edges blunt....
Dismembered morsel lay....
Rouge gushing, layered thin ....
Lifeless, body breathes....
One arm stretched out....
The heart continues to beat…....
