These solar winds blast through me
gamma rays break through my flesh
leaving me atomized
separated into ions.
My soul remains behind
as yet to reconnect with that one light
as I explore this universe
forever destroying and remaking itself.
I witness stars come into existence
while galaxies crash into themselves
leaving cold space behind
and a hole that almost ***** me in

I wonder then where would I be?

The fires came and spread
they inhaled the land
and let out ash
that covered both land and sky.
The fires devoured plant and bough
once proudly reaching for sun and sky
but when the devastation died
the foliage now was blackened and dry.
This fire left nothing behind
left not even a babes young cry
it ate as fierce as a monsters
appetite,
the life that once was full of pride.
Shamed and shackled we looked on
unable to stop what nature spawned
until it all was quite
with only the crackling of the
dying fire.

You look at me
with those eyes
imploring
your soul
seeking
answers that experience can only answer.

Your hands search me
your hair hangs low, curling
and inviting. These times are
simple.
I love them, sinking
gluttonously too deep
to a place we both enjoy.

But then...

we come again
to your greedy eyes
probing deep within my
tender soul
wanting answers
to questions
no girl my age should know.

My body is vertical
parallel to my mattress.
My ears pick up the mites
eating away at my dead skin
the dust mites prowl the forests
of my eyebrows.

My body is emaciated
the head to heavy to hold up
my collar bones are fragile
the aching is dull and resounding
vibrating between shoulder to shoulder.

My stomach is a sloshing sack
spilling acid in waves through my
esophagus,
burning away flesh.

Burning away my flesh
and will,
darkening my years of life
lived full, happy and long.

You've changed.
but---I don't know
what has changed.
Do I see it in your eyes,
or has the light in them
died.
Perhaps it is your smile--
The corners don't lift
wont lift
as high.
I cannot place what has changed
what metamorphosis has
mutated you into the creature
you are today.
Have my eyes filmed over
is your light less bright
or my soul less accepting?
Again I find my mind
confused
or unable to admit
my own faults projected
on you.

Echo, echo
I repeat
Alone in her cave of stone
Please, please
Can you hear her cry
For loves pure wondrous lure
Help me help me
She cries
But only insects hears
Forever destined to repeat
And never to declare

Pictures of a broken past
Of lovely memories
Of snow that covered frozen pine
Or the smell of mahogany
The feeling of security when you were always near
Now that aid is surly gone
Your absence leaves me bare

How can I draw back memories
Of a time filled with but joy
When autumn came to change the leaves
Or winter to take its deathly bow

What of the springs in May
When the earth let out its scent
Of flowers growing wild
In the acres that never end
Or when you’d plant me tulips
Just so we could be near
Why now then have you gone away
When our love’s yields not yet made

Hours pass and now the days and still no one has found you
My heart is breaking into pieces
How can I live without you?
Without you here my life just seems to be so incomplete
The ache that you have left behind is too much oh I shall weep!

Come back to be my gallant steed
Your damsel needs protecting
But not from the harm that outside holds
But from her heart that needs desperate mending
