You.

Please

Me.

I
[4 letter word indicating notable extension in space or time]
For you.

Be
[4 letter word denoting truth, actuality, and authenticity]
For me.

**** this.
**** that.
They gave me this.
I wanted that.

My words say this.
My face says that.
I guess it's bliss.
No wait, it's crap.

Bound to the Earth
A wraith in poor disguise
A fountainhead of hurt
Erupting from the eyes

This waterfall of pain
Cascading all around
Creates a toxic stain
Where only death is found

I cast my gaze above
Toward the crystal spheres
That lofty land of love
Beyond my sea of tears

Out past the path of Mars
Where only angels fly
I long to meet the stars
Be buried in the sky

Cuddles are cute.
So are smooches and pecks
And hugs are a hoot
But I'm hungry for Chex™

Solitary creature in the Wilderness
Scared of even those of your own Kind
Staying out of reach of those too Curious
Singing out at night your haunting Cry

Is there some great secret that you Know about
Try to keep the mystery you Must
Deep and sacred knowledge you would Show about
If only there were someone you could Trust

  Can I tame them? Should I try?
  Do they know the reason why
  I Felt as though my heart could break
  All for a common rose's sake

when Someone seems Unique in all the World to me
the Reason is the Time spent making Ties
for Only with the Heart can one the Truth perceive
Essential things are Hidden from the Eyes

  Have they tamed me? Did they try?
  Have they shown me the reason why
  I Felt as though my heart could break
  All for a common rose's sake

I Looked for wisdom but I found a Friend instead
Companionship I know was meant to Be
but Even so, all good things must soon Reach an End
my Dearest friend I will no longer See

  They have tamed me, them have I
  and Now I know the reason why
  I Felt as though my heart would break
  For Naught,
but my very own special Rose's sake

-for the Fox

Surrounded by infernal screams
I think this might be Hell
The tortured and the suffering
Around the wishing well

I slept through mountains
I slept through seas
I slept through rivers
And forests of trees

I slept through my childhood
I slept through the night
If I sleep through the darkness
Will I sleep through the light?

I want to go home
I have no home
I'll find my home
Where the pines have grown
And sing alone
A lonesome tune
And sit on my throne
In the light of the Moon

Where is Paradise? And Paradise is where?
Can you stand in the land where all colors are fair?
I wonder, I wander, I try to discover,
But I guess I am less than untouchable other.

But I don't like complaining all day without fail,
So I try to enjoy both the head and the tail.
So then, where is my Paradise that I find so fair?
With love, and with friendship and help. It is there.

I dress in brand new rags.
This rag dress brand is new.
Such clothes are meant for hags,
But I haggled closed a few.

Most of me just wants to sleep
Just my head is still awake
My heart is like a silly fish
A fish that wants to fly

I rather like this one, it seems
It's not what I had thought.
And though it's nothing like my dreams,
I like it quite a lot.

I'm trapped in liminality
But rescued from fatality
I'm aware of physicality
But sheltered from reality

Live with passion
Die with grace
Shove it in your rival's face

Self improvement
Out of spite
To fill up anger's appetite

Burning for
A greater light
Is better than a losing fight

The looking glass
Can see you stare

If you walk past it,
It won't care

But as you stand
To change your face

The image plans
To take your place

Metaphorical deformity
Malformation of the mind
Forms a horrible majority
Of my metaphysical bind

By methodology
Empirical
We demonstrate
The world is spherical

Alas, within I find
No evidence
That there is anything
Like innocence

And as my status quo
Is under trial
I take a dose
Of Vitamin Denial

Your words are spells,
bewitching me
by means
beyond my comprehension.

Your eyes are jewels
by which
you hypnotize my senses.

Your voice, your lips,
a rose's scent
that beckons me
toward its sweetness.

I hope you realize
your love
is what completes me.
