I see you kiss
Upon her lips
Still i sip
Upon my myth
Still i live
Off broken hyms
I live off bliss
And ignorance

For a second the clouds
cover our sunlight
Whilst we are on a journey
away from somber thoughts;
At this point:
water silently flows from our cheeks
Enemies embroidered in gold dresses
deceive our minds
Light sits within
the warmth of the river

Midas (15W)

The same dreams that have sustained you
could be the same ones to
end you.

Not everything that glitters is gold.
Be careful what you dream of, it may come true.

Mary

Mary, woman often overlooked
How deep was thy pain
Unfathomable sorrow
Face in the crowd
To bear witness
You who bore the Light
Made to observe the Light dwindle
A kiss of deception
Sweat and blood
Nail and wood
You lingered until the last cry
Only silence remained
But when the third sun rose
A massive stone was rolled away
Tomb clothes exchanged for a white robe
And the Light shone again

A Skin of Your Desire.

A skin for your desires.
Made of things,
That you wish to sing.

A skin for your desires.
Sitting proud on your bones,
And you calling youself unknown.

A skin for your desires.
Accomplished by liars.
Of silver tongued ******.
A ceremony of abuse.

from a distance

can I fall in love with you
from a distance
from an angle
from a smile caught in time
feeling only that which derives
from your voice
your words
your soul that travels these many miles

can I trust the toys
that allow me to know
some of you
filter out what I don't care to see
hiding behind that glow

can I fall in love with you
from a dream
that brings you here to stay
beyond that dreams end

To Their Child:

The reason i say no is because
you do not know what

harms can befall you
addictions can seize you
terrors can engulf you
and deception can trick you

when you do know what

harms can befall you
addictions can seize you
terrors can engulf you
and deception can trick you

I hope you can say no,
too

departure

I'm lost in translation,
bound
by hallucinatory sensations,
found
between border and sea,
cold but free
like a continental breeze
that drifts lonely
to shore.
Still so unsure.
Then lost again once more.
This time she's lost like never before.
