You're my full moon
When you show up you are the cause of all these tides of emotion that overwhelm most feelings.
One drunken night
You stole my youth
You took it without thinking how it would change me forever
You didn't realize that-you ****** the life right out of me
That one drunken night

That one drunken night
You stole my love
You told me what I wanted to hear
You said I was your all
That I was beautiful
That I meant something
You stole my love
That one drunken night

That one drunken night
Changed me for good
For now I am bitter and refuse to let another in
I wish I could go back in time
But I cannot,
All I can do is tell you.
You sir, are a thief.
Because that one drunken night
You stole everything from me.
Lover of mine
You make me feel weightless
Like I can reach up
Grab the clouds with my bare hands
And consume them as if they were cotton candy

Lover of mine
You make me feel important
Like I can do anything and everything
That this crazy world throws at me
And if anyone says otherwise you will defend me because I am important to you thus making me feel the way I do

Lover of mine
You make me feel infinite
Like I can live for an eternity and never grow tired nor weary
I can climb a mountain, run a marathon, and still have enough stamina to come running back into your arms


Because lover of mine
you make me feel as I've never felt before
And I doubt anyone or anything else can ever make me feel the way I do.
Lover of mine?
*I love you.

Wallace Stevens
No soldiers in the scenery,
No thoughts of people now dead,
As they were fifty years ago,
Young and living in a live air,
Young and walking in the sunshine,
Bending in blue dresses to touch something,
Today the mind is not part of the weather.

Today the air is clear of everything.
It has no knowledge except of nothingness
And it flows over us without meanings,
As if none of us had ever been here before
And are not now: in this shallow spectacle,
This invisible activity, this sense.

What syllable are you seeking,
Vocalissimus,
In the distances of sleep?
Speak it.

Let your lips
graze my skin,
leaving no
exposed patch
untouched.
Pepper my
broken pieces
with your perfect
bandaids and
mend the scars
I swear would
never leave.
I am utterly
convinced
you are the
antidote I
thought
I'd never
find.

I got down
And see the street lights
The cars passing by
Stuck in the headlight

I've seen bestfriends become lovers
We've eaten their left overs
What's left with us,
Is the piece of junk way back past.

I've watch lovers love
Like I did before
I've watched them fall apart
I've felt their beating heart

Baby there's no ticket to the past
There's nothing you can do
We didn't make it last
Just throw your love to the past

Sun and Moon. Perfect.
Dancing across the sky. Love
without thought of time

Night. The Moons domain
The slow beating of a heart
Life's quiet exhale

Day. Plain of the Sun.
The softness of howling winds
Life in its purest.

Sun and Moon. Broken
Never meeting, but forever
Love, unrequited
I tried ok.... I know I fail
What doesn't **** you,
Makes you wish you were dead.
What doesn't destroy you,
Leaves you broken instead.

Who will fix me now?
Dive in when I'm down.
Save me from myself,
Don't let me drown.

It's getting harder to hold on,
I need to let go.
But as I start falling,
Then the love will show.

Who will fix me now?
Dive I  when I'm down.
Save me from myself,
Don't let me drown.

And if they don't seem to listen,
Don't give up your faith!
Don't take out your anger,
Just turn back and say,

I will fix myself,
Look up when I'm down.
And without a doubt,
I will not drown.
Inspiration from bring me the horizons drown

The Overpass
Boys get high

and pass the warmth

vivid and bright.

Living surfaces surround them-

 spray paint
 history
under the overpass.



They were nigh new members

a nation of addicts.

Here recruitment was rampant

where friends went to try

and they broke-

chemically chained

under that overpass.



In the summer

strange souls pressed together

to ****, to love, to grow,

a maiden voyage

hailed by the night
inhaling the night

under that overpass.



If ever you get high

and look for something more

it’s right there

under that overpass.



Behind the weedy grass and paint

a blue door waits.

Bones litter the escape-

to a new world.

Pass out of  this lif
e
and lay before it.
Release yourself,

enter paradise

under that overpass.
