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
I wrote you

I want to write you again
but I feel like a stalker tonight.

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.

Faded flames
Faded flames haunt my memories
A summer rain that brings reprieve
From the scorching earth heat
Yet their stay never lingers
Only the cool comfort
Of that beautiful time and place
When soundtrack sounds surround
Whisking and wishing us
To new and untouched lands
And the secret of knowing
In that moment
Nothing else mattered, but us
A summer rain that brings reprieve
From the scorching earth heat
Yet their stay never lingers
Only the cool comfort
Of that beautiful time and place
When soundtrack sounds surround
Whisking and wishing us
To new and untouched lands
And the secret of knowing
In that moment
Nothing else mattered, but us

Ain't no Genesis in this song (with Adagio)
You love me like a game of chess
it's all strategy and flirting
only you don't care who wins
as long as you nail the queen
and you already nailed the queen
bittersweet and very keen
without a shadow to define
a place in Genesis
beneath the tree of life
Birth me whole in Eden
take your ribs
and mistake them other hard things
that need just as much attention
you called me a queen
stripped the leaves from my skin
then blamed me for the way
the apple brought you to your knees
In nakedness I am man ...

ink me, lover
Come tattoo
your name on my skin
make me the liar
I claim not be
You're the hitch in my heartbeat
the words I can't speak
have I ever told you I...
have I ever...
have I...
No
Come tattoo
your name on my skin
claim these veins as your own
because they've always belonged
a little bit to you
The truth is
I hate you, lover
I love you, friend
I need you, divine fucking goddess
Don't be another stranger
lost in the box of polaroids
you're inked too...
your name on my skin
make me the liar
I claim not be
You're the hitch in my heartbeat
the words I can't speak

lost in the box of polaroids

January
January lingers, cold and slow
I wonder how you are, where the streets go.
do the days treat you kind?
I wish I could walk with you, leave no step behind.

*Vulnerable*
I struggle to write love poems
It’s easier to rip out my heart and show you how it bleeds
Gripped and dripping down impulsively tattooed arms and dampened sleeves
Staining the shirts of those who are never coming back
But wearing occasionally just to breathe their scent
One last time..
Before washing them in grey and faded memories
It feels dull
And emptiness starts to fill the skull
Biting down on chapped lips in a room of unfamiliar faces
Hoping one of them emanates a purple hue ...
