I'm in the sky
With a knife
Stabbing at the clouds
Massive gashes
The belly of the nimbus
Bleeding out
Its cries are thunder
Its tears are rain
The sky is pain
I strike as lighting

These gray skies in my eyes
Are how the storm in my soul
Tries to escape

I'm in the wind
Howling with the trees
Your whole house quakes
Foundation shakes
My whisper in the breeze
Becomes a scream
Something you can feel
But never hold
My turbulence
Blowing bitter cold

Only may my tears
Become the clouds
**I want them to rain on you

i dreamt a dream of love
the night before last.
with you as the leading role
and i, your loyal love.
wrapped in your embrace,
i weeped,
and you were there to wipe the tears.
i was warm and happy.
it was me and you against the world,
as they would say.
bodies intertwined,
we were sure our love would last.
but i awoke
to the realization of the nightmare that it was,
invading my brain,
leaving me with the false hope
of love everlasting.
because darling,
i am not safe in your arms.
you left me for a brighter future
but who am i to blame you,
i would’ve left me too.

Daddy come save me,

from the monsters.

they crawled out from under my bed

and into my head.

Now I don't know where to go,

I've been left all alone.

Daddy come save me.

I used your smile once
too many times
and your presence
was the canvas
I could afford for.
Days fled, words died,
trapped in different worlds,
our hearts quit,
and I write in past tense now.
