yesterday i found out
you flew away with the wind,
just to see if you could
then you swam all the way into
those almonds that grew with the liquid of my eyes
we found solace in the sleep
that made you into your purest form
there’s no hiding, no lies, nor crying
but i am praying without a word for
the every next breath
though so far all i know is
i am just another silhouette.

The caffeine in your head
will make you drop dead.
Timelines in the eyes of the
mind mapped by lies and despise.

Graveyard’s shift for your honey
make way for the tiny memory
in your casket
it’s a hole dug for you.

Muses of the foolish that once roamed
they lived and once owned
every shape and shadow
waving goodbyes and hellos.

Music plays on while they snore
louder than the machine
making time stop and start
at the life of the pitiful
monsters flooding melodies,
conquering dreams,
crying throughout
the phantom of disguise.

The bared and concealed lie
across each other
finding peace among
wars of the genuine
soldiers fly around the clouds
rivers flow by you
when you don’t need them
(don’t presume)

defined by nebulous thoughts of feeling the smoothness of the epidermis and sliding along hormones the rush of blood fuels every move and we travel to your dreams fastened by the grip of hands intertwined into the meaning of it all is it better to fly or slowly drift into the night is it right because we both know we started with a “hello, you look like you know me” and when we smile look away, lock the door, before you changed your mind it’s faster than a minute but heavier than an embrace you wouldn’t know the difference until we’re face to face don’t worry we’re fine don’t worry about the closing your eyes and meeting your desire against mine it won’t be soon but bringing control i see you as you taste the very thing we lack of the sweetness of a word dropped to my ear but wait it’s not wanting too much it’s just a kiss after all

run away old ghost
I am not afraid
do not face the cold
you are not alone

I am completely
unashamed and free
mind is in a trance
lost to all frailty
we become ourselves
a new ghost in pretense

happy to oblige
am i your cup of tea
sweet cherry bleeding
tomatoes in tin cans

my weights are down
and i am up again
you abandon all
designs and wordplay
to escape my love
too much to ask you

— The End —
