What if I told you I was on fire?
Waiting for our love to save me and take us higher.
What if I told you I was drowning?
Taking every day as it comes but always counting .
What if I was buried alive?
Barely breathing but covered in a love I can’t express.

And she looked over at him…
Over from the stars.  
Eyes brighter than the sky,

And whispered,  
“I see God in you.”
💛
you don't exist when
my eyes are open
you don't exist when
my blood's not poisoned
when my soul's at peace
when my gut is full
and when I'm in company

So you exist most of the time
dear muse

Wide open eyes
Poor sedatives make
Smearing the guise
Smudging the fake

How long must
I sit and
Wait out trust
The slow sand

Softly trickling down
Now they close
Slips the crown
But I know

It won't be
For more than
This is me
The calm slam

Shut drawing mind
Ever closer in
Til darkness finds
And sleep wins.
A poem sabotaged by sleep.

My Now

I’ve not seen her
for a long time now.
Each day above my dreams
I see us hand in hand.
Memories of painful leavings.
If it feels like this now,
What did it feel like then?
I’m glad my now don’t know.

The devil danced
and God blessed him

The angel flew to the ends of the earth
and God scorned him

The devil laughed
and God laughed with him

The angel sought Gods approval
and God became angry

All these things happening on
the edge of Jupiter's rings

The devil and the angel
riding on the edge of
Jupiter's rings
Why do good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people.

A cup of water in the ocean
Is nothing compared to a drop
In the desert.
What is beauty
If it is sorrounded by
Beautiful scenery.
Being different
Is a gift
Many can't afford

If my fate is to love you
From a distance
Then I'll burn for you
Like a star in your night sky
Bright, steady, reliable
Unwavering
Until the end of time.

— The End —
