There are leaves on my skin
Glass tongue kissing my legs
Yes they are shadow,
But my legs are covered in vine

And as the moon cast the window pain
Into my eyes I see it
I see it between the vines
Snaking their way through my sheets

Ripping through the cast of my house
Reaching for me in my sleep
Begging to ******* walls
Pleading to tear the carpet into shreds

Leaves on my skin
Though only the light is filtering in
Glass against my hands
The only thing between me and the Jasmine vines
These vines
Are taking over
This house.

I remember those
pockets of time
We found to make littleĀ adventures in
When
Beautiful mistakes
And memories
Were made
:)

always remember me smiling
my corny jokes
my eyes twinkling
my desires, Peace

remember me as one might
a summer breeze
a flower bud
a blade of grass, proud

a sated satyr a statue posed
next to a corn stalk
next to a sunflower
smiling forever, wild

the sun over a mountaintop
peeking glowing
a small piece of a seed
in the wind, blowing

Echo Floating
I hate those human moments
That take you unaware
A news report or passing siren
unheeding brings throatlumps and sudden blinking tears for unknown people
I awkwardly brush them away with redfaced embarrassment
and hope no-one noticed
that for a brief moment I felt empathy for another human being.
Its not the done thing.

You, you've got me drunk off love,
you're all I ever think of,
your soul fits mine as a glove,
you're an angel from above.

You hold my heart, my hands; both the church and steeple,
now I finally understand why storms are named after people.

You are my only and my first,
you're the water to my thirst,
my heart feels bound to burst,
and to think I once believed myself cursed.

You hold my heart, my brain and my soul,
now I know you can be both empty and whole.

I'm full of heat, oh I feel the burn,
and my only feat is to yearn.
I was in the dark, always in a funk,
you've left your mark and now I'm love drunk.

I was lost until you found me there,
you stripped my walls right down bare,
you shine so bright that you have a glare,
I'm a drowning woman and you are my air.

You hold my heart, my life and my mind,
now I understand how love can make you blind.

I'm full of heat, oh I feel the burn,
and I've been beat so it's my time to learn,
I was down and my ship was sunk,
and when you're around I'm always love drunk.

My dear you are my favourite drug,
and I've done a few and drank to chug,
so come on love, I'll hold you close,
I'll put you in my veins and up my nose.

I just keep saying to breathe
And I'm not sure of who
I'm telling it to anymore

I keep telling them to breathe
Breathe because you're falling apart
Breathe so you can't quit.

Please don't quit on me
This is why I can't breathe
Don't quit on me

I can't quit breathing
Because if I do
I'll be losing the only thing I've ever done steadily
