May 2010
Off this crumbling frame
Chance the fall
Into your gaping chest

Followed my bleeding
Dreams on wing
To lay where you rest

Slow burn
With veins in the wall
I’m home

Nerve’s knots braved my steps
This mad chase
Through the maddening reign

Nightmares gored my eyes
I felt through
To catch your throbbing name

Thirsty
Ink-bitten hands
I’m home

Of all my hours
That you fill
I drown
My highest hopes
Black and blue
To keep you

Throw me across the sun
Ashes to ashes
******* away

Upon the beat and break
Of your hell hung heart
Breathe me awake

If you
E’er dare
To run

My beautiful beast
With rapture blushed skin
Drenched with sparks

So demure in your
Wild whipped temper
Thick sick of dark

Razor
Feather sewn arms
I’ll wait

Come on, Hasten haste
Search the threads
Lies woven in your spine

Rip the sutures free
Will you feel
Once again, in time

Patience
War worn back
I’ll wait

Of all my hours
That you fill
I drown
My highest hopes
Black and blue
To keep you

Throw me across the sun
Ashes to ashes
******* away

Upon the beat and break
Of your hell hung heart
Breathe me awake

If you
E’er dare
To speak

You defy to **** death
This fevered wonder
Your mirror’s pride

In which you lay yourself
To bed and to sleep
‘Hind hollow eyes

Will you
E’er dare
To fly
