If she left it aflame,
Would he stick by?

                                                   or sigh,
                                                       as he is tossed, cast away to the
                                                            side

With just the scent of her hair,
Memory of her eyes


                                                      With a backhand embrace
                                                             confronted with lies

Damnation

…
She left all the rocks,
Embraced with the skies,
But landed in a net of deceit and lies
And cried to the sound of a sunset demise
With her heart in the gutter
Nothing was to rise
But the horns on his head
And crimson in his eyes.

Hazel

As two hearts would embrace
Two worlds would collide
"My darling I am yours,
And you are simply,
Divine."

Vacant

"Come with me, far away." I told you
Eager your bones had clattered
And joined me in that cloudless cave
Where no one and nothing mattered.

Halva

"A jar of honey has never hurt anyone"

                                                         …

                                                                          Tell that to the guy who's
                                                                      manhood got stuck in one.

On the Hilltop

I'd count the number of daises,
Dressed with the honey bee buzz,
That played with the wind, a symphony,
Harmonic to the sight of our love.

Crown

…
Impossible, fantastical
It cannot make sense at all
I used to pride myself in my posture
But somehow you've made me fall.
