I run my fingers over the scars,
that line your wrist,
and I smile,
thinking that they are parking spots,
for my wayward hands.

and your voice I hear it still,
and I follow the sound of your whispers,
dancing in the echo of my hollowed out heart,
and my innocence reverberates against all I know,
against all I know now.

we laid together under a canopy of stars,
and the fear of getting caught the mosquitoes of our existence.
we stood close to the fire hoping we'd get burnt,
seeking the danger in desire, just to feel,
and we exchanged hearts communicable disease...

the split wasn't even..
it never was.

By Arcassin Burnham

Shaping my every excistence into your image,
i can see that your quite fond of me,
i can see that you'd gladly honor me,
you put your trust in me,
beyond the lost cosmos and the frequencies,
run into my cold bones if your feeling like
the earths core,
in our memories,
what we feel is just normal,
or you could just be another dream that increasingly
makes love to me and then plays with the emotions i have,
i couldnt grasp but,
I know theres fire in your heart and mind and soul to
be in the fear of being forgotten,
Not to be old or sell your soul,
Be safe in every aspect and every intellect to behold.

As I walk these endless roads all alone
I stare into space
The only woman I have ever loved
Has disappeared gone and left no trace
So as I try to pick up the the scattered pieces of my tattered excistence
She was the one and gave me the love that I had always dreamed of
I try to figure out what happened maybe the sun forgot to shine
I am supposed to take the blame without even a whine
So I am on my own again is this how God wanted me to be
No it was just a lesson on how my life shall be.....but another woman and another time.....but wait the signs for us were all around So why?
So I stop in the middle of nowhere and ask him as I stare into the sky
I did what she wanted and I set her free
if she comes back we were meant to be
So as I wander in my own little world
I search and search for a possible sign
For a love that was lost and oh so great
We never deserved this terrible fate
I must find another to play her role
And try to forget before I lose control
For the rest of the summer and into the fall
I will search the world over and try to enjoy it all
I will leave you with this rhyme
And I hope you read it if you have the time
For my love shall be with you till we grow old
It was the greatest love story that was ever told

I knew not love,nor it's excistence.
What a person I have been,
A life not so well at a glance.
But such a gift I have seen
All in your cheerful presence.
Making my teen so keen.
A gift of love for me to rejoice
And for beautiful memories to happen.

Never have I thought in my mind
That a love of such a kind,
Could be there for me to mend
An enemy to my friend.
A noble deed a endurance,
Just for me to experience.
A simple way to keep you near
And for me to astray pain and fear.
