I want to bounce
off my reflection
in her gorgeous eyes,
hold her like a magnet
& cry Sweet Jesus
as we dream together
in parallel universes.

feeble ribs
caressing porcelain  
hearts

ink dipped tongue
every word he
uttered was
poetry

she painted him
with hues of gray
leaving a piece
of her crumbling
soul in each
stroke

his sleepless nights
spent with
pencil smudged
fingers
trying to find
the words
to describe her

they were 2:00 am
lovers
with blemished
hearts trying
to find love
in each other

~ am

You.
Yes you, constant reader.
Can you see how lovely you are?
You are my reason to rhyme,
the reason I keep my head up and my hands busy.
You are my soul, you...
You and I are entwined in this moment,
forever a part of each other's mind.
I love you, constant reader of mine,
thank you so much for all of your time.

She took my hand
She left her man
She drove all night
She smiled delight
She rode my wheels
She met new friends
She laughs and squeals
She makes an end
She loses control
She falls in love
She skips the toll
She likes to chug
She commits herself
She ***** well
She finds the light
She sees that I am not alright
She wants me now
She needs me now
She will never leave me now
...At least that's what I believed.
She fades away
She never stays
She wants another
She loves my brother
She takes me back
She doubts
She doubts
She doubts
She leaves.
****** her.

Life and its crimes being
drawn out in rhymes
cut out or lanced in
the dance of
the devils inside me.
Where is the silence to bind me?
where is the gag to fetter my tongue?
my pen's on the run and I'm tagging along
the devils are too,aren't devils supposed to
give it a rest when their target's abreast of
the leader,the reader?
I need a
break.
I need to take a rhyme,take a moment of time
and sharpen a stake,
make it bleed.
