do you remember

how it feels

to lie with a woman 

and hold her

as close in your heart

as she is in your arms


whose arms were those

whose heart was that

what woman


the things you unraveled from yourself 

without a thought

in club bathrooms and

green fields and

***** carpet floors

you cannot put those back

the way they were

you cannot 

turn the lights back out


no one ever tells you that

no one ever tells you child

be careful
what you pull on 

be careful

where you look

Late night fairy lights
Stretching over my bed like
Stars guiding the way
the lights above my bed are so calming

light spots in the darken skies
rays of  spectrum
my eyes hold an awe

Millions of stars I stare every night
Thousands of dreams I dream every while
Wide as the skies are journeys ahead
Still at it's very start are my footsteps to begin
Blossoms of infinite are held within the soul
Countless are the praises everything that's worth
No matter wherever, I'm made to this moment
Forever I'll stand to make every moment
These hands that were gifted lit lights into the sky
From a heart so pure wished, wished for you to always be near!

iridescent
luminescent
reminiscent
of childhood dreams
looks like
blinking lights
shooting stars in the night
when the lights
were cut off from nonpayment
sounds like
cellophane
on a cigarette pack
like
firefly wings scratching their backs
feels like
old butterscotch from grandma's purse
listening to the neighbors
fight and curse
running from bullies
thinkin, "Surely, my heart gone burst!"
taste like
cotton candy
a stolen sip of brandy
while your parents recuperate from the night before...
the night
filled with lights
and promises
and dreams
Luces de neon
reflejadas en las
gotas del retrovisor

he salido a cazar
he salido de mi jaula
hoy decidí no volver,
no volver a mi cama.

Luces de neon
iluminan el asfalto
son las gotas
que chocan en la ventana.

El caballo ***** relincha
y mi alma se ve verde, azul
y morado.

We with warped minds
frolicked under those lights,
hanging loyally
like cold, sparkling jewels
in the humid night.
"These nights are sacred,"
I would say,
and the ripe summer air
would roar through every vein
in our
young
soft
bodies.
