As ephemeral December sweeps past me I wish September had stayed longer,
figments of your image are fading steadily in this frost of loneliness
Your voice has ceased to be mere recollection of embers, long extinguished.

The Wish
The early morning air,
humid,
nearly drips with sadness.
The smoke from my cigarette
curls its fingers and sighs.
Like tiny pinpricks along my skin,
the stillness is dotted
with the bellows of distant horns,
the slow, deep moans of cars.
I close my eyes, shudder.
But, even then,
I think of you.

Ribs
Stain me with your blood
And the iron within
I won’t mind
If you bleed on me
I will wrap you up
With my wrinkled nirvana t-shirt
And hold you close
So close
Because you are everything
I would shed my own skin
If it would keep you with me longer
And the iron within
I won’t mind
If you bleed on me
I will wrap you up
With my wrinkled nirvana t-shirt
And hold you close
So close
Because you are everything
I would shed my own skin
If it would keep you with me longer

Play it again sam.
She strode in, lighting the room.
Noticing her immediately.
A jolt went thought me.
I froze as she waved at me.
Or perhaps the guy sitting next to me.
I waved back in silence.
Avoiding eye contact.
As I'd been advised to do.
Definitely not speak to her in any way.
Told this would upset her so.
Avoidance & silence the strategic way.
Downward gaze as i passed her to the bar.
In the toilet had a breakdown.
Strong sense of mutual awareness.
Bought another drink avoiding eye contact.
Definitely not acknowledging her...

accepting invitation
the herder stands
a distant shaped shade
woolen coats tender ears
fluttering to catch each
fallen sound
unlocking small gates
cloven hooves clatter
the lone sheep waits
hers is colossal bleating
I look into her inquiring glance
repenting not her stoic nature
respecting distance
the herder tells me
she tends to follow
his every footsteps
there were no little lambs
she strayed from the other ewes
upon an open pasture
he shares a flask

Heartbeat
I have money
I'll throw it up to the sky
have blisters on my hands
but I'll keep working
on my knees
if it keeps you satisfied
yes, we mingle
with all the cool people
not my thing
but I see how it makes you feel
just give me this
the time I get
to hold you tight
drifting off into paradise
I'm not too wild
just a little fucked in mind
a kiss on the cheek
sends my demons home
I know you say you're not sexy
but if that's true
then why does my heart keep beating?
hell,...

Mm... Get Here If You Can
Get Here If You Can
Close your eyes, hear my sentiments as they cross faraway lands
A hard felt contender
For a soft pillow of surrender
Don’t be scared, shh, never be afraid
Now that echoes are silent serenades
Emotions now hiding behind a quiet masquerade
A never ending female’s dominating charade
Once had it made
Dopamine was the game, mentally parlayed
No one is getting compensated for words portrayed, or displayed
Get Here If You Can
By car, bus, or on a Boeing airplane as it lands
You can reach...

Betrayed
You buried me with your silence
Broken bonds and trampled trust
I took the bait and fell into the trap
Of your luring seductive eyes of lust
Scars scrape across my heart
Blind to your bidding from the start
Now I'm delusional and dead
To a world as empty as my cold bed
Broken bonds and trampled trust
I took the bait and fell into the trap
Of your luring seductive eyes of lust
Scars scrape across my heart
Blind to your bidding from the start
Now I'm delusional and dead
To a world as empty as my cold bed

Stalker
I see you in every boy with curly hair in the city
and I want them all
I wrote you
but you did not answer
I want to write you again
but I feel like a stalker tonight.
and I want them all

Husk
You left me in the shallows,
half-drowned, lungs full of silt.
I am the remnants of something holy,
a cathedral stripped to bone.
Your voice was once a lifeline,
a tether between earth and sky—
now it lingers like distant thunder,
too far to bring the rain.
I call out, but only silence answers.
The ocean does not return what it takes.
And yet, I stand at the edge,
waiting for the tide to recognize my name.
half-drowned, lungs full of silt.
I am the remnants of something holy,

Your voice was once a lifeline,

I call out, but only silence answers.
The ocean does not return what it takes.
And yet, I stand at the edge,
waiting for the tide to recognize my name.
