The Prince, my Prince

Everyday you sought out an Atlas
And everyday he carried the eternal’s weight
If you call listening, carrying

1 of 12, 12 labours
Head to the ground, body stripped in apology
So that others may look to the stars

A debt owed, now a debt paid
A happy debt  

The Greek remembers with stories
The Roman remembers with dates
People dismiss him with smile and thanks
I don’t, I remember

Your heart, in stone, cracked
A kiss lasting a lifetime, a kiss for two

The Prince, my Prince

The Swallow, my Swallow

‘Will you not stay with me for one night, and be my messenger?’
‘Will you not stay with me one night longer?’
‘Will you not stay with me one night longer?’

Yes
‘Do as I command you’


And so everyday he took the place of Prometheus
Giving fire to humans
As giving light to those lost in this dark, dark world

Eurydice, Eurydice, my dear Eurydice, you went too soon
I sing this song, in hopes that the Gods look favorably on me  
Wish granted, time short, rain is all I see  

Time for a kiss, not kisses
Sweet, short, sorrowful

The Swallow, my Swallow

I have always loved you, even before I knew you i loved you. you were a thought that was imagined to be a fool's errand. until the world in its twisting converging way brought us together drawn like magnets across a short distance with a force that can't be seen but felt yet can not be denied. see you are just as you are supposed to be and I am just as I am. I accept all of who you are and everything you will become, because I love you.

Loved,
Something that I do not feel
Something that I don't remember the warmth of
Something I will never have

i was taught love in a hard way
in words and actions,
that today will get you in trouble.

she blossomed into my life,
i was taught me give it your all,
you may wear your heart on your sleeve,
but what’s there left to lose.
tomorrow may never come,
just give it your all.

he then came into my life,
i did everything she taught me,
i gave it my all.
he left me unappreciated,
unloved in the end.

i built up my walls,
hiding my heart away,
not letting anyone hurt me,
never again…

then you came in,
bashing down the walls,
holding my heart in your hands.
you make me feel appreciated,
loved,
wanted…
everything i ever wanted,
is built up in one soul.

you’ve shown me how to love again,
not to hide away,
just give it my all.

and i am.

- finny
    i think i may be falling for you

Skin, soft and fragile as marigold petals
Bones thin as papier-mâché
Holding the shape of a person I love
Holding together our bodies of clay

Candles, dimming light behind the eyes
Weary wind slipping through parched lips
Sweet and weak the voice of a person I love
Spirit readying voyage on vanishing ships

Do you think that
Someone
Somewhere
In 300 years
Will think
Or remember
What you have done

Today
Tomorrow
Whenever

Or

Who you were
Who you loved
What you were
What you loved
