"emptyful" poems
Nothing. is. real.
faces on the shaddowed clocks
and someday's sideways looks.
they know it.
knowing burns clean.
it lives in cracks of thoughts
on scraps of promised doubts.
you feel it.
feeling finds you.
frees you from the understood
to peel you of your vatic good.
embrace it.
touching begins.
stretch out your fingered hope
carress this hole inside the known
of lies so old they find a film of feelings
spade-scared-dark below the promised diggings.
open up the reel it's in.
unwrap it's torn cold linen.
it's what you're wanting.
clutch at what's within.
...and know it's Nothing.

You are my salvation
Yet my destruction
Amidst the dark abyss
You are the peace
The touch of your lips
Of your fingertips
Like cannabis
I don't wanna miss
Intoxicating and addicting
Tempting and taunting
Too much for my bidding
Screams danger to my everything
Still, I can't stop
I keep going back
Like magnets do
I can't make it through without you
Though we're opposite
We've got something exquisite
Wanting something I can't have
Loving someone I shouldn't love
Here then gone
Making me undone
Tastes like twilight
Sun losing its bright
Triggers my longing
Still hoping
That in some twisted tale
Our love won't fail
'Cause your kiss, a miracle
Brings me to pinnacle
My first thought in the morning
Last thought in the evening
My dreams at dawn
You crawl into my bones
I hope
This is not just one of your jest
I'm falling to the crest
My insides a mess
But it never made me love you less
You wreak havoc
The moment you walk
And came into my view
Everything's like honeydew
Stammeringly delightful
And I'm stuck trying to keep my cool
Trying to stop the pull
Though I'll be left emptyful
'Cause a death's kiss is the end
End of a beginning
For love not to a friend
But to someone who became my everything.
