I write to ease my anguished heart, and put out the fire of my mind.

Cherry Promise
She left me with a bouquet of
flowers that never bloomed,
and a muse with bleeding
verses that never rhymed
At nights when her name
is dancing on my tongue,
I hunger for the cherries
she once promised to feed me
Another version.

I Wonder
I wonder if the filed of lavender
sighs when it yearns for her scent
I wonder if the sunflowers
worship her raven hair
like the sun
I wonder if the moon weeps
with longing over her absence
I wonder if the sky turns pink
when the spring breeze
touches her silky skin
I wonder if the cherries bleed in her
mouth like my heart when she left

Icarus' Plea
Lover,
I need you to stand still
with your feet in the water
Let me drink your reflection
to quench my thirst as you
try to hide your tender smile
I beg of you,
don't leave me,
because then the sun will burn me,
and the sea will swallow my ashes

I Wonder
If the sky turns pink
when the spring breeze
touches her silky skin
If the filed of lavender sighs
when it yearns for her scent
If the sunflowers
worship her raven hair
like the sun
If the moon weeps with
longing over her absence
If a thorny flower
hurts liker her

When I Leave
Would my grave be
deeper than my wounds?
Would the warmth of the morning sun
still reach my rotten body?
Would Icarus, my bird, fly to the sun looking for me
Is my selfish death going to cost him his wings, too?
Would the worms weep when
they ******* tormented flesh?

Elegy To Her
Your soul wanders at
the edge of my heart
Your footsteps when you
left still rings in my ears
Your scent filled my
lungs till I suffocated
You haunt my dreams,
now I write to your ghost
You poured your honey into my
hungry mouth like slow poison
You said love won't save us,
and my heart stopped

Kiss of Lavender
If I can’t swallow your frigid heart
then let me kiss the traces of your
loneliness with my ugly mouth
And on a sleepless night
when your soul needs a cure,
I will be there with lavender tea
