I want to see the sun
Blinking through empty space
Unaltered by our atmosphere

I want to feel your skin
And your warmth on
A rainy Saturday

I don't know who you are
But I'll sing to the dark
And wait for you to answer

I can't help my itching despair
Tugging at me like an river
I'll deal with it someday

I want to hear your voice
When you talk in your sleep
Maybe later

Arena
 Oct 2015 Mikoarenas
ej
Blood on my hands and
I don't know who it belongs to
And it's not something I can
Easily return

Pull me from this arena

I can't stand to feel that sun anymore and
I can't help but tear myself apart for
Ruining their lives so many
Hours ago

Take me back in time
But I know this is not something
I can easily escape

Dedications
 Oct 2015 Mikoarenas

I wrote of desert stones many months ago
and I lost my pen to the paper and
sacrificed my ink to the moon

Written with blood, this writ
sings of my dedications and
poems penned with names in mind

Unmeasurable love and adoration
beyond simple words, I feel more than my
body can handle

So please, stay here, and never
leave me to the night, for you are
my light and I am your shadow

I am too fearful to return to that
which birthed me

I've lost myself
Once again

I think it's better this way
To swim and never once think
About surfacing for air

I think it's better this way to gather
Gold and never once think about
Its holy volume until it's all spent

Today I got a perfect marks on an
Examination I'd previously failed and I
Adore this illusion of second chances

I think we should all be afforded this luxury

Heaven

Can you take me to heaven?
Of course you can.
With a body that's smoking hot,
With lips as red as the sun.

Can you take me there?
With your love that's shining bright
With lust running through your veins
And passion that's stabbing my heart.
i tried to make it as pervy as possible but nah. maybe i'm still too innocent haha

I got my hopes up again, friend;
I prayed to the wind and it went quiet

Left me in the dust again
and I don't know if I can
pick myself up this time

I don't know if I want to

I got my hopes up again, friend;
I prayed to the wind and it went quiet
Can I breathe once again, when on the ground I stand,
My vision turns blue, I need to forget you

I need to bury the past and kick it back
and hold it where it belongs
It'll eat me alive, friend;
Come and save me

You picked me up when I felt weak
and my voice was too soft to speak
but you read my eyes and told the truth
and on young souls I cut my tooth

Lift the past and burn it down
and throw the ashes to the wind,
so it can never find itself again
A chance for rebirth

But I don't know if I want to
shorter version of something i might finish in the future

Lock and load, shut the door and
hide the guns

We're gonna to wait this one out

Baby, I do
Hold me when the lights go out
Kiss me when our ears bleed
Show your battle scars;
It's time we feel something new

There's blood on your breath
and ice in your heart
and I hate to see you fall apart
but life is born from death
and this is only the beginning

We're gonna wait this one out

I hear a voice in my ear on odd Sundays,
it tells me to set my temple on fire
and sing to the sky
when nobody else is near

It's my cookbook of old confessions that
makes me want to kick the wall
and throw in the towel on my
biggest ambition

Nobody deserves love, I found,
and I found it on the lips
of a lover

I hear a voice in my head on good Fridays,
it tells me to leave my heart to the wolves
and look at the ground
when people start to leer

Nobody's got a ******* heart,
I realized, 'cept for those who
have everything to lose

Sing me that four five eight
and fold open my book
and read me till I touch the sky
and blame it all on you

I can kiss you back to life
Give me your hand
And I can pick you up again
But, oh
What strength lies in my bones?
Eliminated
Shot
Gone years long past
I'm weaker than I thought

Kiss me back to life
But we're both falling
Twirling in this dance of death
Ever-distant
Growing smaller

Give me your hand

Telesto

I'm a satellite gone rogue
Thrown off course by an
Unfamiliar gravity

Call me Telesto in that
Solar voice of yours
Pin me down
Against the stars

Give me up to younger worlds
Made of packed stone, rich with
Potential

The best I can do is watch
And fly
And wait for the day upon
Which you will finally devour me
