Tonight I cannot sleep
So come to me
Fill my head with dreams
Of love-making and risk-taking
Of your sweet hellos and tender goodbyes
Or better yet love
Be my dream
And never again will I need
The quiet comforts of sleep

I am lacking
a sufficient amount of peanut packing.
Lighting struck beach
shatters underneath
the footsteps of my thoughts.
Roo will have to wait
until tomorrow's date.
I apologize
to myself
for being distracted.
This series of thoughts
has become protracted
I am losing my point.
Owl will be redone
and this spool will be respun
The heart of what is meant
by my words will circumvent
my lack of inspiration.

I'm fine
The biggest lie ever told
I say it so often
You'd think it'd get old
But I don't want people to know
Whats really going on
It saves me the trouble
From explaining all that I've gone
Through and through
I don't mean to lie
Yet this is way easier
I'm conflicted inside
I want to let you in
On this charade I play
But you'd only judge me
And soon turn away
Just like others have
Long before you
Be honest with me
Can I trust you with truth?

kiss me please.
kiss me hard.
let it leave
a mark, a scar.
let it burn and be a star.
kiss me please
and leave me charred.

I'm not so far away
as to miss it when you say
the way you feel.
i'll listen
and i'll pray
that it's real,
and steal a kiss
so that we may pay
only attention
to the tension between
our blue pools
atop mountains,
bringing them both
to the valley
to meet in the middle
and make up the sea.

kiss me.

I live in a place where angels are seen.
A lovely place where dreams are made real.
It has always been a forsaken reality
What more can i say,
I try to be strong, but I guess..
I'll just be me.

Brown and furry
Caterpillar in a hurry,
Take your walk
To the shady leaf, or stalk,
Or what not,
Which may be the chosen spot.
No toad spy you,
Hovering bird of prey pass by you;
Spin and die,
To live again a butterfly.
