i lost you somewhere
between
florescent skylines
and linoleum earth.
(the world's most endangered species are:
1. the muscle between your cheeks
2. the limbs at the end of your arms)

I want to spend tonight alone with you
Just looking at stars
And Reading our fates etched there in the sky
Comets shoot by like old famed glories
Dead but never gone
Not from our hearts
So I’ll say it again
I want to spend tonight alone with you
Just looking at the stars.

we talked silently
& without repose
under the blood red sun
of our sunken desire
my eroding heart
beating with each breath.

& laughter - falling out of love
& time

i clench every word in my mouth
red and seething
down my face

i can't find an excuse

breaking the silence
of the hyacinthic beauty
its pristine value charged
and buzzing at my
hip

When it is the darkness we are seeing
Then we are seeing nothing at all
When we listen to emptiness
Then there is nothing for us to hear
When at the darkest dawn we seek beyond the blackness
Then enlightenment is revealed
When we heed the absence of void
Then we can hear over the silence

when you  are lost in the dark and can't see your way,
reach out  and hold my hand,
I'm going to walk you home.
When everyone is against you and you feel out numbered.
You can count me as two, and I'll be standing behind you.
And when all you can do is curl up and cry.
Come look for me first, I'll come with you to keep watch while you let the walls fall and dams break with the huge torrent of tears of confusion and pain.
I'll never leave you, my friend...
I'm as close as you needing me can reach.
