sometimes you perceive things
as they
aren't

and some will look at the ground
and never have to look up

and some will stand in the sand,
and not be held by fingers twisted with fate,
gaze up at the stars
with wonder

some only look down
to watch their dreams fall
to the ground


and then there was

Cathy Brown

I wrote
"I love you"
on a napkin
got caught in the rain
on the way to her apartment
and when I gave it to her
and she unfolded it
there was a beautiful flower

I never told her I love you
never had too

the light in her eyes
the twinkle of stars...


I was watching an old movie
and the make up artist
was

Cathy Brown

while I dipped
my ******* in the holy water
of madness???
why not write a poem
I loved the name so

the touch from her fingers
kept me sane

some dreams never vanish...

do you believe this **** I wrote
sometimes I need
to not
get serious

I love you Cathy Brown.
Ineffable.

As I dive deep into woolgathering, all I have is blind neural hearing
Answers only my mind filled with void won't suffice.

challenging a numb skull," isn't that just dull"
embody a soul that could never be full

hold on tight
breathe in, breathe out, breathe light

divert attention, to a dimension for another temptation,
coming to an end with zero homily, pretty uncommonly

only wizards could turn us into beautiful lizards

don't we all wanna have metamorphosis.
When language is lost
When words nowhere to be found
When now you’re gone too
Baby I swear
it’s like a slow death
Upon my mind.
Lover stay, call me home I'll never go away
Unchanging it will be, together I know we're free.
Alluring, how your eyes can speak, forever it's my golden antique.
Yours truly. My one and only jewellery by my heartbeat.

When will I hold your hand,
I'm only safe in your demand.
On my way home I want to smell your cologne.
When I'm alone, the scent is embedded on my shirt.

I'll know then I'm forever unhurt.

Missed the sound of your voice
The smile I always hear
Why haven't we talked?
Its never been clear.

You're messing with the structure of my poetry
You're calling me? No, its in no hurry
Everything is blurry...
Drop drop, there go my tears

I need you

Honestly time has been ticking it was filing for crime. 
Awareness finally hit me, alone scares us.
Luxury is living nearby, knowing you'll get my high.
Admirable brownish eyes covered with purple skies.

We're the two bodies in one soul they talk about.
Hold my hand, during storms  I promise I'll find the shore.
I'll be your shelter in this cold.
Dig deep down you'll find emeralds and gold

Lets meet again in a faraway land
Stolen from his arms, yet you're safe with me
Laughs and kisses isn't what may seem
I love you dearly, please don't scream.

Drops of water from the sky, the type that angers you
Now is rain without the rainbow in the end
Now is rain without the scent
Now is the rain that angers me too

Wake me up from this nightterror dream
Eyes open to dances and weird faces made on small screens
Eyes open to smiles and songs you sing
Don't you realise the happiness that you bring
