The moon
is my only company
when I'm walking
down dimly lit streets.

I don't mind
that she knows
how I think.

I can tell she likes
the secrets I keep.
You speak in your writing
spreading hate through those very words
killing hope with comments
and making poetry your foe

You put out the flame of love
within your icy words
created here on this public site
for all to see, but only some will know
and cherish the words we say and flow
across the page in sweeps of meaning

Even few words hold more meaning
than the meaning of meaning, you say you know

Stop making her live a hell to be in
and start making a compassionate place to write in
We luv ya bryn, don't get upset at a few stupid hate comments. :)
walk with the wind,
against the water's current.
trudge towards your gutter.
***** others in blind hope,
hope to high godless heaven,
that you're mad enough to pass as a purist.
...---...
find your gutter, close the shutters,
hide until the heavy wind deadens.
let your safe haven cave in,
bask in the mindless clutter.
become a fallen angel in your own armageddon.
-
...---...
I found myself fall into madness so I dove.
The best thing I ever did was let go.
And with each foot I fell, the voice in my head started to sound more and more like mine.

the next time you
go to the cabin
east of the fort
(my east, not your east)
(left, if facing the cabin)
(wrong)
look for the tree with the
white yarn wound
around the trunk with
a bunch of knots that
wouldn't hold,
where I
wished that no matter
what you
would be
here, that
i would last
past all my fears
and make it there again.

"Thank you," you whispered to me
"This," I said to you with a smile
"This is love, isn't it?"

If I speak too slow
I lose you
Too fast
I scare you off
I need your words
to help me play
This cryptic
game of love
Written to you, whoever you are.
Thanks to Lainey for spotting a mistake/ querti g an poasible interpretation. . Now corrected.
