Little Skai walked down the hallway,
Cup of water in his small fingers.
It was past his bedtime now,
And yet he still lingered.

He looked at the portrait of his two fathers,
That hung in the hall,
Beaming smiles emblazoned on faces,
Under trees during fall.

His family was beautiful,
And he knew that when he looked around,
Love emanated from everyone,
There was plenty to be found.

Cody curled up next to his love, who was fast asleep:
He was happy with his little family,
Containing hearts so deep.

I am fluent in
the tongues of
    my lost willow language.

No one can remember
what patience has done
to my
forbidden
filthy
tongue.

So let me be your kindred scribe,
let me endure the ******* eternal wrath of taming a demon such as the one that runs like the Volga river in your honeysuckle veins,
I'll die trying,---  
  for you.

“Ahkira, I'll set this mirror up for you--"

"Lycan, it'll skew my beauty."

Quote on quote you howled the December
lyrics & spun my name in the elements of the atmosphere &
Aurora borealis.
"I promised, didn't I?"
Etching your voice in the hollow
drums I call my
mind & skai.

It's always been there.

Eyes catching the coals of
Jupiter,
foam and lust
driving your
shadow-bitten sanity.

Hostile under the wax of the moon,
burning like matches you stumble
in my constellation.

   "i spy
lovely sleeves of poetry
raindrops slipping into weeping veins
lungs of january
& silver bucket eyes."


You tattooed this on your arm,
Lycan.

“It’s the moon that pulls our waters,
distance doesn’t count.”

    
I tattooed this on mine.

Arching up the sky ladder
I'll climb it to show you
I'm worthy.

I'm struck by the
beast staring back at me
Let me stargaze,
It's always been you.

I look upon a distant star
Mired in the inky blackness of a midnight sky
They're so far away, yet I still feel their touch; their warmth

I can still hear their voice
It echoes from a realm beyond the stars
A place where their pain is accepted as punishment;
A crime never committed, yet a life sentence received

They live beyond that fading star
In a place foreign to the living; a place only they can know
Beyond my reach, but not my loving embrace

The echoes of their final moments still ring in my mind
Falling, falling... yet not to the ground
Up through the heavens and stars
To the blackened sky beyond

Their eyes still shimmer with jade luminescence
A color that still I cling too; even took my name from
Now in a way a sort of tribute

A tribute to a life cut short
A life too many of us come to know and despise
But I know in the midnight sky
Far beyond faded stars and constellations

I will always see those shimmering jade eyes
Dedicated to the memory of an alt and longtime host of our system, who tragically took their own life in our inner world this morning.

A dear friend now lost
Lost wondering the Astral Plane
A friend I didn't get to know well
A friend that will be missed
A friend looking down on us
A friend now speaking through me

A fox who loves us so
A fox who cared so much
A fox I still hear
A friend I can feel

Goodbye my foxy friend
Jade and I miss you so
Goodbye my friend
We love you lots

-Roxy
