blushing prince
you're not alone
touch the ransom note
i have learned to become un-lost
the art of demystifying the weird ways that you can become kidnapped by yourself
you peel your layers
leave the doors open as if this world is not cruel
danger is a middle name that your 3rd grade friend once gave himself
things are different now, the stars
                                                        don't
                                                                ­sink
                                                            ­          in
                                                    ­                    a pool of
                                                              ­    d  a  r   k               
                      it was once so terrifying to imagine
what lays underneath and above
but you sleep inside of it, always have

Hydrologic cycle:
It is in the raining clouds of the sky
Falling downwards like a man falling to his knees
Yet, besides the pain of hardships weighting his soul
Through the sunshine of hope and grace from heaven
He will rise to his freedom from the cracks in the ground and start over again.
I've been experimenting on the concept of  Science with poetry... Because I love science and I love poetry.... And this is the result... I hope you enjoy reading....

She has been dancing

with him through out the years

but tonight

they are dancing strangers

in the spotlight.

You're the reason

of the teardrops

on my notebook

Staining my newly

written poem of us.
Let this be a written evidence on how painful it made me feel when it all happened.

Stars move in dark sky.
White dragon flies with the night.
Cold, dark; beautiful.

Each love is a love
for the ages, as is yours
and like any dutiful lover
you add your sorry sapped
words to the sorry sapped
pages
Yours! more grand than all
the rest! convinced of this
or even worse, yours is
devine, or maybe a curse
Either way when your lover
joins the out going tide, when
dear friends tell you of all
the other fish in the sea?
First of all, you were just
enjoying the ride
Second of all, these marine
and moronic metaphors
make you feel like
you've eaten a bad oyster
and her love, out of season
is all the worser

eleanor prince
ever standing
body lithe, strong
trained to strike

too dashing for peeling paint
old verandas
slow-paced hamlet

waiting in country town
place to whizz past
road to tourist hub

how does his tale read
did he pay
for assault

struck the frame
holder of *****
spawning breath

cold fury
for scenes of his mother
thrown down

stain his every stance
grabbing mail swiftly
ahead of arrival

panther muscles
no more the crouching lad
shuddering

her screams
bounce off walls
as mother's body slumps

broken bottle scars
left to clean up the mess
as he leaves for school
forage into
fictional possibility -
penned
with deep respect
for David
of village
