You

You… Uninhibited, irresistible you… You, that makes me rise in your love, arise in your love. You… You… With this irreplaceable, intractable love of you… You make this heart slow down with the touch of your wrist upon my wrist, thumb upon my thumb. You… You… With all of your existence by my side, that…

Happy

I went looking for happiness and found you. In my thoughts, in memories, Sitting on stairs, waiting for stars. In all the places that I’d been before, In places that now seem afar, You were there, making me happy. Places that had held my bones together, That had marred my soul with scars, You were […]

The Moonlit Tree

Out he looked, through the stained window pane, Saw an olden tree, with eyes full of rain, The tree had bent in places destined, No leaf ever grew, from its veins again. Pain devoured, its desirous desire, And out it put, its love-fed fire, The rain then gave it a wisp of life, Yet grimmer…

One too many

In the darkness of the night As he lay upon his bed A thousand thoughts forgone Came pouring into his head His eyes kept getting heavy And his brain began to shut Slivers of golden light Burned through his cigarette butt He kept his senses open But his eyes began to rain Cigarettes and empty…

Lost & Lost

There he sat on the ruins of yesterday, For the bombs today had come and gone, Holding on tight to the body of his father, Who’d once sung him a song. He’d told him of the paradise, That his beloved city once was, Of tales of artists and musicians, When loudness meant applause. He looked…

Things

Things I want to say to her Things I wish I could If I had her in my arms Say those things I would Things that would melt her heart away Flow down into her soul Make her watery eyes drown My world into her whole Things to walk her down a path She’s never…
