Sweet dreams are harmonious like melodies is to music it sings to my soul
Love is unselfish like food is sumptuous feeding my soul
Contentment is peaceful it flows like a river that cleanses my soul
Joy is happiness like the rays from the sun it lights up my soul
Laughter is cheerfulness as breath is to life it elevates my soul
Affection is tenderness like soft whispers of love it captures my soul
Passion is hypnotic like stargazing is mesmerizing it captivates my soul
Immortality is forever as his love is everlasting it preserves my soul

oh, rose addicted lips,
cruel and beautiful,
whisper your gentle lies
and ponder;
what do you despise more,
the ache or the release?

The night you left
I burned to ashes

I am on the run
from my broken heart

Healing my burns
Collecting my wounds

Until the day
You set me on fire again

The poet lives two lives.
One on the outside,
And one in their mind.

When you look in their eyes
You could see an abyss.

If you looked long enough
You could sink into it.

But most people don’t see it.

Take the time to read the words, though,
And you would know for sure.

The poet lives in two different worlds.
A little escape from the madness.
Or maybe, into.
