Glimpse
Painted lips
and hips
that color saturation drips
and leaves its story
in the foreground
of my thoughts….
you.

Beautiful Demise
Jagged in the creases
Blood is running deeper
It trickles down the chambers
Of a Seldom beating heart
On the bright white walls of freedom
The canvas which has freed it
What was once a source of living
Is now a work of art
Jagged in the creases
Blood is running deeper
It trickles down the chambers
Of a Seldom beating heart
On the bright white walls of freedom
The canvas which has freed it
What was once a source of living
Is now a work of art
Just another broken soul
Just another broken soul
A hand suspended there to hold
As hollow as an empty shell
And lifeless as a baby doll
She sits there missing who she owes
Clicking nails, as she goes
No hand left for her to hold
She's just another broken soul
Just another broken soul
A hand suspended there to hold
As hollow as an empty shell
And lifeless as a baby doll
She sits there missing who she owes
Clicking nails, as she goes
No hand left for her to hold
She's just another broken soul
Within this awkward silence
Within this awkward silence
I realized, you'd realized it
I could tell by the sudden disappearance
Of your goofy boyish smile
Now; in this new moment of never ending silence
You realize; I realize, you realized it
And in this realization
Lies no place for either of us to hide
Within this awkward silence
I realized, you'd realized it
I could tell by the sudden disappearance
Of your goofy boyish smile
Now; in this new moment of never ending silence
You realize; I realize, you realized it
And in this realization
Lies no place for either of us to hide
Lifted
Moving afar
Two different parts
Trembling in each others presence
Falling apart
Two bursting hearts
Ringing alarms as they drifted
No one in charge
No light in the dark
No stars still shine in the distance
But as they depart
They let go of love
And float away as if they were lifted
Moving afar
Two different parts
Trembling in each others presence
Falling apart
Two bursting hearts
Ringing alarms as they drifted
No one in charge
No light in the dark
No stars still shine in the distance
But as they depart
They let go of love
And float away as if they were lifted
I no longer wish to know you
The door was closed before you walked in
Don’t walk out and leave it open
No second chances left to give
It’s you cheek to now expect one
No tears to be shed as long as I live
For the fool no better than none
No hurt, nor revenge, I don’t want to stay friends
And although my hearts not broken
I no longer wish to know you…

And although my hearts not broken
I no longer wish to know you…
The joker
The joker
Taught me Poker
The first game he clearly won
I never played that game again
Twas' luckier than some
He broke my heart
Between the cards
But now the day is done
I look back at it
As a hard learnt lesson
To never cheat at love
The joker
Taught me Poker
The first game he clearly won
I never played that game again
Twas' luckier than some
He broke my heart
Between the cards
But now the day is done
I look back at it
As a hard learnt lesson
To never cheat at love
Won't be another day
A heart that burns less evident
Than the tears acidic on her skin
A shaver been dismantled
Wristbands to hide her sins
Another day pretending
Another day she wakes
Another days life sentence
Wont be another day....
A heart that burns less evident

Wristbands to hide her sins
Another day pretending
Another day she wakes
Another days life sentence
Wont be another day....
Losing grip
It slips
It's slipping
Right through my hands
In the gaps between
My fingertips
Like loose, subtle sand
The weight tipping; unsettling
The balance
Of all good and bad
It’s like I’m losing grip
Of all of it
Everything I worked so hard to have...
