Music I heard with you was more than music,
And bread I broke with you was more than bread;
Now that I am without you, all is desolate;
All that was once so beautiful is dead.

Your hands once touched this table and this silver,
And I have seen your fingers hold this glass.
These things do not remember you, beloved,--
And yet your touch upon them will not pass.

For it was in my heart you moved among them,
And blessed them with your hands and with your eyes;
And in my heart they will remember always,--
They knew you once, O beautiful and wise.

Scared of the future
knowing I’m a good swimmer
I will ride its waves

This is who I am
moments pass, I have changed
she is gone forever

You’re out of my reach
under my feet lies thin air
rather fly than land

I watch the birds fly
buzzing breaks my distraction
distract me again

Complex words to fix
what simple minds do lack
illusions of depth

Age, just a number
we can manipulate it
how far apart now?

That feeling again,
this time different than before
the cocoons have hatched

The honeymoon stage
we should stay here forever
passports thrown away

A silence with you
Is not
a silence

But a moment rich
with peace

Your envelope lips  take in the smoke selfishly
and it is this that I think of when I think of you
when I close my eyes and imagine you.
it assaults me every blink.
sleep in you.

And to taunt you
with the strings of others that I could so easily toss away
if you would just ask
ask for all my hope
and love and thoughts
and drinking stories.

So far today I have had three and a half thoughts
And counting

everlasting awe
a dance when sighted across the street
goodness, trust, virginity
stars and heights and depths
breathless, breathtaking words
late night is the only time to talk
smilekissing
he sun she moon one earth
the ******* of thoughts
the licking of dreams
youth, old age, immortality
afterthoughts of bliss

You.
You're calming like raindrops caressing my window
You're brilliant like the sun's rays on my face
You're mighty as a twirling hurricane
You're majestic like a mountain, protruding from the Earth

You're peaceful like the moonlight gleaming through my doorway
You're astounding like the vastness of the sky
You're powerful like the current of a river
You're eternal, infinite and ageless, like the elements, in my eyes.

I tossed and turned all night through
     I slept not but dreamt of you.
I was pretty, my hair was messy
     You wanted me and your mother knew.

Rolling and rolling over and either
You stayed with me
But made me a liar.

I awoke from my awakened state
     To find my pain all the same.
You are broken, dear
     And I am not to blame.

LAST NIGHT I DREAMT
SOMEBODY LOVED ME
TO WAKE AND FIND
THOSE DAYDREAMS, TOO.

I FIND HIM LOVELY
BUT SHIELDED IS HE
AND SO I DREAM
AND DREAMT OF YOU.
