all routes lead to the homes made in passing.
i am unable to recreate your smile.
all peaks have views wishing to be seen.
you do not want to be looked for.
I will live a half-life
It glows warm on her breast, polished
symbol of her life attachments,
subtly marking loving passion,
needing no flashing sparkling zest.
Once the scent of ancient pine,
gooey, enticing insect trap,
transluscent shroud for their remains,
since washed ashore between those
sheer, crumbling, shortbread cliffs.
On the pier
He ponders above life
Plummenting into dappling
Turquise waves
Salty flower cracks in wooden
Boards so familiar
Resembling a white lotos
He's deeply immersed
Moved by the beauty
Among marina's
Sailing boats clanking
He wants to love her
In between upcoming
Sapphire storm
His thoughts resounded
Even louder repose on
The love affair
Approaching
Adrift, lost in a dreamscape
On white cushioned horisons
Smooch
Smoochin'
"where night is....a violet bird stretching drowsy wings"
i.
night, strange bird of metal,
sinking like a sea whose tide
drifts out, down through the
sky, wild honey and flowerbeds
full of stars.
ii.
i dream of you, revealing
everything of me, i am nuts
and bolts, i am sweet and
sour, i carve my name
on your wrist where the blue
snake rests its head.
iii.
my breath is fire and flowers,
longing, a song forgotten in
the mist, crazy day, bitter and
sweet night, shadow steed of
a circular world.
iv.
kiss me, sweet love,
my skin aches for
your touch like a night
flower twisting petals
on the wind, in love
with your love.
v.
rise like a ghost and
sweep me away, the
burning dust of my
ribs, my very last kiss.
"where night is...romeo at a window"
i.
black rock, gold
leaf edging a page.
ii.
night drowses its
engines dark alleys
and empty cans.
iii.
the night sinks back
like a technicolor
cartoon, blue-green,
it rolls like a film, it
sings of old love
in its fiery steels.
iv.
today i am juliet
waiting for romeo
i wait forever for
one kiss while the
sky calls out
love to the dreaming
cloud.
v.
romeo, oh, romeo,
and the night's
ghostly petals
unwind their
sweetness in the
tree-lined lanes
of the moon.
it's complicated
i tell her
as i grip on to
the same coffee cup
i've been drinking from
for 2 weeks straight
because i wake up tired
because i don't sleep
because it's not complicated
that you just don't love me
The back of the moon
Doesn't turn as you do.
Like how you appreciate the little things,
That life give to you.
Does it make sense?
How your heart was fallen, too?
Do you understood?
Love was flowing into.
Through the deepest, cringe of his toes.
Following him like it was few?
Thinking of you trapped inside
Thinking of you crawling real time.
Does I,
No,
I didn't
And never will
Just another year older
And the days grow colder
She still won't let me hold her
And it all comes down to the facts
It just seems to be how she reacts
And I couldn't careless
If I'd live or die
Because a life without you
Isn't what I wanna live
I know you've seen right through me
I'll just disappear into the shadows
Your hearts so full of doubt
I'm trapped in a hole and I can't get out
I'm lost in all you are
I'm losing my way
Walking into the wrong direction
Into your anger and perception
There is no need to mention
What you feel in this deception
I came to you and got corrected
Because a life without you
Isn't what I wanna live
I know you've seen right through me
I'll just disappear into the shadows
Your hearts so full of doubt
I'm trapped in a hole and I can't get out
All we had was a lie
There no way I can deny
It was all in my head
And in days I haven't slept
Because with you on my mind
How can I not think
will our two different worlds collide
Because a life without you
Isn't what I wanna live
I know you've seen right through me
I'll just disappear into the shadows
Your hearts so full of doubt
I'm trapped in a hole and I can't get out
