I split my lip
& ****** the blood
between my teeth
reminding myself
of how it felt
when you kissed me.

"What looks, and stares have you when
the homeless appears?
Does your eyes quickly turn away as
if they don't exist, or give a helping hand
of care?
The long hair bearded men with leather jackets hopping of their
Harley's as you cringe in fear.
Suddenly you notice the writings on their backs.
(We Ride For Jesus, Helping The Meek & Mere)
These are just a few that are unruly judged.
Still a bit too many in the field of grudge."

Wistfully
Wishfully
My daydream drift
Takes me eye to eye
And hand in hand
On a sunny morning
Somewhere
Settling dust
Step by step
And side by side
There's a tide close by
Responding to gravity
And gravity of sorts
Draws our souls
Fatefully
Inevitably
Together

built a dam
****** the flow
to rock me
in a nebula
of aphasia

damask and silk
amniotic velvet
all five senses
spelling your smile
the touch of your voice

I know
It wasn't in all those plans
We made
And if
You could have you would  
Have stayed
So now
I'm left here on my own
All alone
Trying to
Find some way to fill my days
Carry on

Still find
That every day is an eternity
Of misery
And I
Know you would want me
To see
All those
Places we planned some day
To share
It's just
Way too hard to find any reason
To care

Until I'm
Pulled back into that last moment
We had
And you
Eyes locked in mine  don't look
So sad
You said
In that breathy whisper voice
To me
Just smile
And  I'll wait for you so we can Share eternity

But don't
Waste a moment of the time.
You're given
Because that
Is  no longer just your life
You're livin
And then
She smiled that smile I've known
So long
And then  
Smile in place her eyes close then
She's gone

These days
I wander around like in a maze
Totally lost
Still hear
In silence her laugh which I'd pay
Any cost
If it
Would never fade away from my
Memory
Then I
Heard her laugh like she stood  
Beside me

That ended with her breathy whisper.
From this point on every laugh you hear
Is a promise to you from me
So  you will always know  
That I am somewhere  near
Remember that...
Remember that... my dear...
My dear my dear my dear

L
my brother, my home
we were born from the same sunken star
a pair of old weary souls

still far apart, falling apart
I miss your nearness to me
but we are a bit closer among the universe

if you ever feel like
your world is uninhabitable
you can join mine

because I cannot remember if you're
a dream or a memory
I swear we've touched before

although I had always been wishing
you weren't a fragment of
my own imagination
