Sometimes I'm so quiet and alone
I can hear the stars scrape against the sky.
Nighttime bones leave stars bound to the depths
My heart melts from cursed blood
The wolves bring wood to my ribs
Fear is a broken hand binding love
The moon promised to drop my mistakes
A lion roared at midnight
and dragon-fire bled it's last fortune
Brittle skin held constellations and ravens
My mind longs for the shore
But my soul's been pulled underneath
The Throne is the sky
Weighted with fading sorrow and bountiful lust
Those blue eyes drown with numb regrets
And my burning spine crawls along the lake
Eternally waiting for you to take a dip in betrayal
This bold reign blindly declares

*Forgive me not
Don't turn love into pity anymore,
For you Lycan
I constantly think out a future that will never be.
Don't bend at the rubble at your feet
Grey skies and dried blood will waste away
Time has kneeled over
The view, no sudden moves
The minor lift causes a greater fall....
Oh and angels have faked that night
Wings ripped and halos dulled
Lost
In the abyss
Abuse and alcohol
Cigarettes and smoke
Oh they fill her as well
Ghosts have poured sorrow in your void
The deeper the cut the more you feel
And the less you sense
Mindless hearts
Hold on tight
Grip your soul with all your worth
I know you've just been torn

*This isn't everything you are.
For you.
Skaidrum, this isn't you. I'm so sorry. Love and best wishes .
Hollow black jasper on my tongue
Leaving ivory leaves twining down my throat
This disease weighs on my mind
The gold reflects back my skeleton
Ink teeth bending your silver sword
It's hardest to remember the beauty
A lonely mouth wanting to speak
Holding the hour spinning with regrets
Fading my mind in sunset strings
These sickly hounds aren't like their wolf brothers
Rotten stones lining the graveyard
***** out these cinders
And leave me the coals

*I hope I haven't left yet
A broken clock
With stuttering tocks
A twisted hand to fear
Grid-lock gears to hear
The pendulum
Still swings in sync with my heart

*Silver is just a title
This one is for my mate Aidra, or Skaidrum as she is known.
Head
tilted to the side.
She blushes;
She's clay to the touch,
Flesh to the mind.

My fingers,
like passengers aboard the Santa Maria,
explore a new world-
Every inch,
Every crevice,
Every curve;

She's the Venus de Milo-
Timeless.
Classic.

Delicate
like a ribbon
fluttering downward,
pulled from her hair
by lover's passion.

Her ******* are molded-
islands along the ocean I swim-
and an art form is born;
The simple movements:
Up,
Down,
To-and-fro.
Well thought out,
but not choreographed.

Color her
like the Roses on my tongue;
Entangled and Infatuated,
They speak of Youth,
Naivety,
nervousness....

Step back
and She blossoms to life.
A monument lays before me;
the mortal
achieve immortality.

Perfect
from her
Head
to her
Toes.
Her dark matter thoughts
consumed every last drop,
tearing down her reality
like a throwaway prop.
She fell to the breeze
and floated on all fours
to her bottomless abode,
where suns dissolve
and the moon does glow.
The friends inside my head
wan't to play along, but I'm afraid
she might dissect the frog.
I was scattered
to the farthest reaching stars
Thoughts on thoughts
stacked like library halls
till the many pages formed a face
and with growing thrist
swallowed me down
into the endless night
of a dying black hole
I had lost all self control
