Writing sometimes
Like a flame consuming
Can sate
The world in your eyes
Some moths are beautiful
Some bruises are blissful
Some strain and some rain
Is truthful

I sometimes wish that i knew how i felt

Empty room,
Empty halls & empty walls.
I scream, but they are not redeemed.
The kitchen is bare,
with no smell in the air.
The dining room chairs do not bare
the weight of my family that once sat there.
Why is it so vacant? In this house,
I once called home.
The lights are all on
People are bustling around,
But once was my family,
Is now no where to be found.

you see,
well rather ironically
you dont...
or at least i dont
(...my mistake)
(that was my perception/projection of "you" based on "me" because we (again sorry or/ sorry again) can only see the world egocentrically)
i lost my glasses last week
havent seemed keen
on finding them on the streets of
O, (Oh) (OH) how i keened after them (IO)
driving on a mirror this morning, mourning, before the sun, a rose, arose.
i finally noticed them gone.
the acid lined upper middle class road from my
(socially speaking)
lower class acid ridden
(economically speaking)
upper middle class mind
had dis(re)appeared^(infinity)

all time was lost

and for the first time in my driving career
i found myself, spending more time looking at the street than at the road
shooting stars of red streamed after taillights
as if always trying to catch up
  greens joined in from lights above
...but did not muddle the stars  
like the perfectly controlled watercolor artisan

what Virtuoso, what Perfectionist, what Letter-dash-letter of a being
could create such an immaculate emasculating picture (lack of question mark)
i am humbled.

p.s
i gave up looking for my glasses
my vision seemed perfectly clear
so was yours (Sorry)

I didn't want to hurt myself
but the stinging felt better
on my thighs
than it did in my heart
and the burn
of the ***** in my throat
will always taste better than
swallowing down the words
I want to say to you
I'm hungry and hollow
and I just want someone to call my own
I just want someone to hold
and I want us to love each other
you were like a hurricane
you came to me when I was still
young and beautiful and new
but you destroyed everything in me
the storm calmed eventually but it didn't stop raining in my mind so I ran blades along my skin trying to find some part of myself that might still be there but I only bled colors of you so I sent out search parties all over my body
but they where never to be found
cause I guess you took them with you
so much of me lost in you

I keep
forgetting to
forget you,
neglecting to
regret you.

it's a lot like standing in the rain
without an umbrella and
wondering why the ****
you didn't think it could rain.
Say
A little rough around the edges
I'm feeling so dry
My mind runs in circles
You're driving me wild

I know, you know
Everything will be alright
Feeling alive and free
Its you and me, tonight

Feel the radiant energy flow through you
You know what you have to do

Don't you?
Feel the laughs
The light

In sight of what is real
And what's not
You're all I've got
On my mind everyday

I have nothing more to say

And as the rain fell towards those deadly pieces of rubber,
I was reminded that
sometimes something must die
in order to achieve peace.
Deep thoughts as we drove in the rain
