I want to slip out of my skin
And sink into the coat of a doe
Tiptoeing past moss-trees
And through thorn-brush

I want to shed my skin
And don the scales of a serpent
Gliding through dappled-shade
And below autumnal-leaves

I want to disrobe my skin
And wrap myself in the pelt of a cat
Prowling in the half-shadows
And morning's false-dawn

I want to dissolve my skin
And absorb infinity into myself
Drifting through space-time
And and the never-never in between

i hope it’s okay
i still feel the music in you
it’s just that these lo-fi vibes
remind me of our synergy
and i know that lately i
have been getting so high
off of falling back into me
but i still miss your groove
when the music comes to
in a way that brings
me back to you

She Writes
She was made of silk
Though she was soft to the touch
Her fibers were strong
Her secrets and stories
Tightly woven
But if you grasp one loose string
She unraveled as quickly
As she was woven together

She Writes
She planted a garden in their love
Because she believed in a tomorrow

Traveler
If you could feel
Certain thing I've done
The rush in my desires...
I assure you most
Would cut and run
From the lake
That burns like fire

Dancing to a primal beat
Where life is trampled
Under feet
To feed the furnace
Of evermore
No time for love
Or even war

If you could see
Through shell shocked eyes
You'd know just why
I live a lie
...
Traveler Tim
I used to live for acceptance and approval
I can't do that anymore
I'd still be waiting

I see you everyday
You torment my soul
Hunt my dreams
And abstract my vision
And now all l see are your memories

Distance has taken you away
You so far yet so near
Your shadow follows my every step
All our conversation keeps playing in my mind

I wish just your voice could do the healing
But the brokenness needs more than that
Your words brought me to live
And now they keep me awake

I want to be in hope not hopeless
I want to love not to be broken
Dont want to be weak but I'm shattered
I wish l could bring back the old times
I wish l could go back and live in the memories
If only l could.......l would
