Desperate on this darkest star
In stagnant air to breathe
Jagged reach of tended far
So much I can’t believe

A’ chained upon the barricade
Locked this welded form
Broken of mistakes I’ve made
Waiting on the storm

As here upon my knees I weep
Head within my hands
Crying tears forever keep
Aside from promised plans

My heart now sliced in silent view
The end beckons me home
This which I have done to you
My life it sits alone

Shadows hung on shouldered fall
Mud encrusts my feet
Pain besets this lonely call
As endless sorrows seep

“I’m sorry”, echoes in my head
Engulfed in rhythm’d flow
Offered of a broken man
Who prays for you to know

Pleadings from this sectioned seat
I beg with all I am
Calling out in sad repeat
This empty place I stand

I ask for your forgiveness
Myself I can’t forgive
This punishment lies endless
Of fractured days I live

The pain is ever coming
Though nothing I shall share
I face the sun so stunning
In hopes that you are there

But still the time is passing
Sand in glass does fall
Desolate amassing
And I deserve it all
Collaboration with Jack

Where oceans dance on sleepy shores,
glistening beneath crescent moon breaths,
counting star drop secrets on charcoal skies
I stare at a horizon, a single shadowed line.... waiting

Into the depth of the distance, my thoughts drift
I know they will find their way somehow
I'll remain here, the closest point to you
my time, my freedom, I no longer wish to be my own

Cast upon these harmonic waves, my desires,
whispered into a sea breeze of flowing dreams,
Become one with a metronomic tide of needed current
seeking a path to your perfect heart and I breathe...slowly

Thoughts and desires now run free, seeking their destiny
the direction, always known to them, yet hindered
a moving course across the ocean, the destination, always you
wistfulness and impatient dreams will become a reality

And of this reality, these distant shores, we shall be together...
not of sun drenched morning awakenings,
nor a midnight sky of watchful eyes,
but of one love on a tireless journey, far beyond every horizon ....eternally
I've been so privileged to work with someone so talented.  
Jack thank you for making this so easy!
I will put my heart
in it's rightful place
locked away, defeated
quietly nestled in cold storage.

I am nobody's gift
Nor anyone's passion
I am not seen with heart shaped eyes
My belonging is futile

I will lay my pen to rest
I will drown in crumpled paper
as my tear stained muse
laments my echo

Love does not live
within the cracked walls 
of silent existence
Love does not sing
within the void I created
Love does not listen
to pleas made in darkness
Love does not love
me.
I am the one in you poems
I am the one you adore
I am the one you wish to be with
I am the one who makes you write more and more

Now, I am the one whom you are holding on
I am the one you giving you coldness in return of warmth
or, I am the one you aren't letting go
I am the one making you low

Now, I am the you gave up on
or, I am the one who got tired of one-sided efforts
Yes, I am the one & being that one hurts
But I know I am the one
Getting love by none....
like a whisper
i hear it calling me
inviting me
it waits for me

another single soul
out there in oblivion

one day we will meet
one day we will fall in love
There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you,
And nothing you would for me
.
Few things change my affections,
And little things alter yours
.
There is nothing I ask of you,
But everything you expected of me
.
Persistence is my key to dedication,
And touching is the key to yours
.
All I needed was you to exist,
Yet you asked me to exit
.
I will always understand you,
But you never have or will.
