You are young, and I am older;
    You are hopeful, I am not—
Enjoy life, ere it grow colder—
    Pluck the roses ere they rot.

Teach your beau to heed the lay—
    That sunshine soon is lost in shade—
That now’s as good as any day—
    To take thee, Rosa, ere she fade.

your eyes look like sunset today
don't close them just yet

In the cold, dark
        of January,
         I remembered
              you
        the most.
  As the chill
      snapped bones
              like branches,
     as the afternoons
   bathed themselves
in gray,
     as the birds
and the backs
      shook,
so did my lips
   around your name.
I'm so happy
     January is almost
over now.
The thing of beauty is closing your eyes and imagining your path is walking among the stars, letting the moonlight shine in your hair, and dancing along the galaxy...

Help,
I can't express myself
I want to change
My old habits
From the past

Freedom,
To be free from my cage
That was built
Even before
I was born

Need,
The love
That was being denied
From me
Since I start breathing
the scent of a rose
the light of a sun
the glowing from a moon
the dust from a star
the tablecloth on your table
the tree's roots cutting into the earth
a world behind a window
the rain sounding from comfort
sea salt spraying coarse sand
an aesthetic
what a bore

I brushed my teeth,
I reduced my intentions,
I got slightly obsessed,
I had a moment of stubborn silence,
Changing into a penetrating loneliness,
Just in time for lunch.

Yes, I’m done talking.
Oh, no, one more thing—
Nevermind, you’re not listening.
