i met you
as the leaves fell
and the sky turned grey

the world grew cold
as my heart turned warm

i missed you
as the leaves grew back
and the sky turned blue

the world grew warm
as my heart turned cold

Someone asked me to draw
Draw what heartbreak looks like
I finally got tired of drawing a broken heart
And I started drawing you

moonlight spilling from her eyes
magic pouring from her lips
the universe in audience of her beauty
even the stars would weep with envy

I ask you,
Why?
Why did you never lend me your strength,
even for a second.
Why have you left
to tend to the sky
when I needed you most.
You've left me before, but I NEED your guidance right now.

When I used to think about you
It was was with the warmth and intrigue of a friendly fireplace
The distant respect of a nightlong star in the bright sky
But now it is only the cold ash and glowing cloud
Which consumes my night in the direction of you
For you are no longer in mind of mine
And I am no longer am to you
Memories do fade. Thank God. LOL.

Black blood and dry skin
The freedom is collapsing
Then deadly reeking at our feet
Good bye our mirthless mother

And we did everything we could
For you to live and flourish
We planted bullets in school yards
Printed on our tanks was glory

We dedicated our songs
To your breast and your forceful limbs
But rarely to your soul
We could not know could not resist

I’m caught between
The universe in your eyes
And my love
For your touch
Dark turns
Slight pink
To grey light
A brown leaf clings
To its twig branch
Rooted by the skinny tree
It tackles the wind
Has death come?
Have I died in love?
Silence is my friend
But your voice sings
The beat of my heart
