Your skin is silk
No matter how rough
I love the way you stare
The way you move
When we ****
Your hips have mind
Your legs have life
In this moment I know love
In this moment I'm alive
Passion is a drug
And only you can get me high

Blue cascades
In the long
Long and weary days
The night is mine
The day is lost
The moon my friend
And the sun is gone

It burns slow
With each drag
My fuel is dwindling
Dreaming of sweet kindling
You hold in your hands
Physical perfection
Visions of a face
Lost in direction

No words leave my mind
Of love or lust
I’m not that blind
People burn
People Feed
People are all
Everything that becomes me

Solitude is multitude
Seclusion an illusion
You are here
But never there
I am where
My words are fair
A poison most annoying

Time is our ally
And also our enemy
Your heart and hormones
Destroy all your dignity
In a mass confusion
Head trauma
You see what you want

The future holds for you
A clue so bold
It’s a wonder you don’t see it now
Cradling your heart
Is me
With hands wide open
And my mind in synch
I am the all-forgiving deity
The step that lifts
When you cannot reach
I see the child within you
And the adult that’s bursting out
I see everything you do
Love a word, this could be
Maybe love this is, maybe

Truth and loyalty
Placed before
It yours
Take all that I give
Friend or lover
It matter neither
To all of you
I love

My addiction
So sadistic
Hands and feet
Face and legs
Quench it
And For this I fall
Rapidly plummeting
Trace discrepancy
Codependency
You are my drug
My everything

You fabricate
Your paper mache heart
With the hollow voices
Of the men you love
You subjugate
Loves binding strings
Making something meaningless

You wander
Wonder about what’s beyond
Gather
The looks and stares from everyone

They can’t see
Inside, what is happening
Black blood
Coursing to an empty shell
What once was is gone away

A man covered
Shadows for sheets
And little rays that pierce the protection
Pillows of hope
They reek of flowers, feminine
Stiff with the mortis
All seems to be alive
Yet there are no beats
His skin is warm
His face is wet
All outside is booming and thumping
The incandescent lights shine
Door creaks closed quietly
No one comes to him here
Not one bothers to break this illusion
As a picture reel runs over memories
The Flowers permeate
Inducers of emotions
That glow violently in his mind
This room, his room
A mecca for all that’s gone
All the relics lay scattered around
Visual stimulation
Stubs and papers, Poems and pictures
Remind him
Music plays softly
He can hear it in the background
The songs of his faith
He is in love
He knows this now
She is nothing
But he is always there to jump
He is always there to run
Manipulate everything
To make the world hers
And now this is only place she lives
In comfort alone, under cover
With pain to release her
And water to ease her
Fermented drinks to cease her
Like the one I sip now
To write horribly
With this tainted mind
I shut the door and press play
Its time to remember
Its time to pray

The watering hole is where the species congregate. It is where fertile flowers pollinate the air with pheromones. It is where I feel most removed from society. I can never compete with the verulante baboons pounding their chest and flashing their *****. I can never measure up to the towering beasts who sip the water here. These doe would never share a drop with me.

I'm a high rope walker
But I'm not an entertainer
I balance through day
And never dream at night
It's always one inch
To plummet
To fall inwards
Scuttling past the demons
The faces of those who inflict me
Their apparitions shake the line
And they grin as I slip
The rope has no end
And neither in front or behind
Can I see where it began
It seems freedom is clear
To let go and fall inwards
Into my darkness
Into sweet sleep
Perhaps I will live on as something more
Or just an occasional passing memory

If you don't exist
Then neither should I
I'll enter Tartarus alone
And never see another night

Because the sun has no radiance
Without you, the atomic spark
Just a hollow disk in the sky
Giving life to the world
And warmth to all, but I

If you don't exist
All I breathe is monoxide
The atrophy burns my limbs
Till I lay down to die
If I turn to dirt now
Perhaps you'd exist in another life

If our souls return to stars
You could find me close to Mars
Waiting for my binary love
But If you don't exist
Then neither should I
And I will burn out
A shooting star in the sky

Trance
Enchantress
Take a chance tonight

Grasses bend and wave
Smoke plays with the moon
That light coming through
From where its arms can’t reach
Gray and blue

God has lit a trillion candles
Flames flicker off the mantle
The scent of wood perfumes
While its warmth consumes

Under cover
Where skin slides so smooth
Whispering words
I can’t quite make from you
Something says you’re sorry
Others say I love you too

Are we dreaming?
What’s happening in this quiet room?
Laying in dark
My eyes closed
And it feels like I’m not alone

My eyes won’t open
My body can’t let it go
Just one more moment
To lay here with you
I can feel the hair
Brush across my face
I know my lips are dry
But why is it you I taste?

And there were two
One to give in
And one to refuse
But it’s not me
I swear it’s not me
That’s talking to you
Something is changing
Splitting deep inside
I am trapped behind
The person I hide
Smoke rises slowly
To ceiling where I reside
And the fuel burns
As it goes down
Where memories die
I’m thinking in a new way
A new way, not the good kind
And my world is ending
But my body will survive
In this twisted form I give
The twisted words I say
I tell them all to you
Inching hearts closer
Bodies sicken
My skin is getting closer
Closer to friction
Come, please come soon
The soul needs release
Passion to make me a fool

You put a stopper in my heart
The love flows over
Nowhere for it to go
Leaks out when I'm sober

Look over me
You can't see my genius towering
My mind leaving stacks
You can't comprehend
They'd leave you drowning
Mouth open in awe
You'd gasp for air
As I pound it deeper
Past your throat
Mind *******
All you see is me
Little portagee
But my words will change the earth

Some say you're notches on the bed
But I'd say you're a cut in my heart
Each one of you leaves a scar
And the soul is bound and torn apart
I can't burden the weight
I can't carry you all with me
To end the strain
I'll sever my brain
And my love will release me

The demons claw and scale
The walls hold tight
You're never getting in
Take the world with you

It's complicated
The words that reverberated
Against the walls
You've built up around your heart
I'll pick an emerald out
While the rest Falls apart

The corpses feed
The walking dead
They swallow preservation
That keeps the mold from the bread
Overworked organs overfill with poison
The heart pumps formaldehyde
Through pressured pipes
The extra pounds squeeze
The dead to the earth
But they keep walking
And talking
And working
Till they can no more
They call it life
But they never live

I keep my words whispered
Though I'm screaming inside
These feelings are punishment
To keep my heart in line

Embracing you is masochism
Writhing and feeling alive
Encased by you
The body's natural high

Legs lock
Mouths dance
Hands pull
Eyes glance

You reside inside
That girl laying next to me
I'll be gone
And you'll never hear my whispers
I took them with me
Though I left something behind
I'll swallow words
Till I can say them to another

It's not window shopping
I've passed by many times
The clerk knows my name
They've got my card on file
I've flirted with idea
But never make a purchase
Even with a lifetime warranty
That's a hell of a commitment
And pretty eyes catch pretty lies
What sprakles like jewels
plastic inside
Those thin veneers
Won't last for years
But look, it's on sale
I know it but it's tough
So tempting
But stop
Those eyes are glass
One swipe of a card
Could be your last

The leaves frost over
The rabid cold bites skin
It's mid August
But the sun has no power here
Gray and blue haunt us
Frozen slabs of granite
Each breathe perilous
The earth gives way to darkness
Hibernation
In winter never ending
The ice ceases beating
The plants dry and wither
Sooner or later
All succumbs to winter

You and me
We could be poetry
But you and I
Are living lies
But the world is wrong
And you've accepted it's answer
Release your love and come much closer

Your ghost haunts me daily
It looms over my head
Fills me to my feet
Overburdening and overflowing
Melancholic love
Consuming
A smile would give life to an apparition
A moment in your eyes
One moment before the rest
A touch can soothe the burns
A moment lost in caress
One moment before the rest
The spirit fades into memory
And you in its place
I lay down my arms
I prostrate at your feet
My fears laid open before you
One moment before the rest
