And if I could...
I wonder what it would feel like... and if it would bring
relief to touch you, rhythmically ... to slowly close in on
this space between us; surrender whatever innocence
you hide within those perfect, unspoiled eyes.
And from a distant landscape, I feel you breathing in
almond'esque shades, as you— a sorrow-cloaked rogue
imbued by myriad of stars, travel the ages of my
tattered, worn heart.
Because I've sought comfort in nameless obsidian
arms... searched for solace in anonymous dark,
my hands digging to unearth some sort...
relief to touch you, rhythmically ... to slowly close in on
this space between us; surrender whatever innocence
you hide within those perfect, unspoiled eyes.
And from a distant landscape, I feel you breathing in

Suspension
There is nothing more beautiful than you
writhing in your own weakness... as your obsidian eyes
still stare, perhaps, along the soft arch of my spine
as I close mine to the intimacy of your darkness,
an endless territory where I am vulnerable
to you... relinquishing myself amidst the sea
of sky's expanse—
And if my breath is to touch the depths of the stars,
I wish to breathe you deeply in, part your lips to taste
the genuine perversion upon your tongue,
quelling the ache you cause as you become
the sempiternal tide...
writhing in your own weakness... as your obsidian eyes

Fragile Alchemy
The earth moves endlessly... adrift
my umbral awareness. Whether I am wilting
or birthing dawn, the earth moves...
The soft lullaby never changes; I trek barefoot
amidst another sapphire shedding its blue
as it exists.... vast within my eyes, pooling
upon my tongue like a nescient whimper.
Within this submersion, I unearth hymnal stars
as porcelain moths gown my quivering hands—
my childhood yoke to the flowered fog
and upon unopened palms, I will bend light
around the curves.
I gather my imperfections...
my umbral awareness. Whether I am wilting
or birthing dawn, the earth moves...
The soft lullaby never changes; I trek barefoot
amidst another sapphire shedding its blue
as it exists.... vast within my eyes, pooling
upon my tongue like a nescient whimper.
Within this submersion, I unearth hymnal stars
as porcelain moths gown my quivering hands—
my childhood yoke to the flowered fog
and upon unopened palms, I will bend light
around the curves.
I gather my imperfections...

Insomnis
Oceanic, is the weight of all being;
darkness envelops me, and I am given new life.
I lie breathless in a sea of resignation,
gauzy-eyed and infinite
while the hazy reminiscence of stars
awakens to stillness, dreaming...

Infinite Resonation
How can I compose beyond words
where all that is spoken is still—
a spectral reflection hushed beneath
umbral waters, submissively swept
by the pnuema of your palm.
I inhale air without breath,
emerging to rediscover the warmth
of innocence, sentient white
like an amorphous sun—or of indigo
embalming skin, caressing the aching
need of something deeper.
Because within each fragile existence
I am...

Autumnal Soul
Beauty evolves
to golden amber mist,
an exquisite sorrow
laced with completeness
and deep weightlessness...
The earth sighs,
exposing the branches of my soul,
awaiting the anxious silk of snow
to begin anew
once more.

Muse
The dark soul of night is a wild drink
of soft, cherished amber and ripe rose, exposed
and unconfined, yet intimate in her fragility.
Her heart beats with an erotic stillness —
eloquently woven syllables upon the palms of god,
drifting delicately along acoustic lines; I taste her heartbeat
within my own.
She breathes in rich, warm shades of aubergine,
a form of purity in my enduring solitude
as the fervor of her bosom etches out the heartache
of an unkempt...
of soft, cherished amber and ripe rose, exposed
and unconfined, yet intimate in her fragility.
Her heart beats with an erotic stillness —
eloquently woven syllables upon the palms of god,

Orchid Shade
I flutter beneath intimate touches,
intricately woven prayers across my spine,
delicately prospect to endure synonymously
with curves molded along another
so labyrinthine in perception,
yet, elegantly rare
where we exist, in unfolding embraces,
liquid waves pouring galaxies made from
sorrow'd peaks...settling within an organic mahogany,
a tangible beauty known to none other.
You awaken my beholden breath
as I inhale truths in trembling monoliths
imprinted on pages stretched across
a somnolent...

Exhale
Unquiet dreams shift,
sauntering coaxing vibrations
over sacred words like waves
towards the dawn of your rhythm.
Nerves pulse into storm, birthing
your voice beyond the grace of god
like ichor playing throughout solemn veins,
scribing kingdoms in dry palms.
I long to breathe deeply in
the warmth of your enigma,
weaved slowly, a transcendental hush
splayed across tattered bones.
But suspended overtures genuflect
themselves in immaterial cocoon,
embroiderer's silk exhaling scars
like...

Necesse Est
Your words fall upon me like indigo rain
pooling in the belly of my wilderness,
bittersweet... sustaining algorithm,
sovereign hymns ... quelling the amber
Yet so intimate your silent possession of me
as desire rose wanton within my breast,
the ghosts under your tongue
threading shadows of solace
in between my hollow spaces
Obliteration... to sate my aching need of life,
your shapeshifting tenderness
emanating liminal waves,
awakening... into depths beyond the stars, ...
pooling in the belly of my wilderness,
bittersweet... sustaining algorithm,
sovereign hymns ... quelling the amber
Yet so intimate your silent possession of me
as desire rose wanton within my breast,

Obliteration... to sate my aching need of life,

Echoes in Fragmented Memory
Silence echoes in shadows of vacant stars
Windswept memories that whisper death into acrid veins
Bleeding onyx inwoven throughout masochistic vale
Godless pall of pernicious desire
I curse the emaciated sun, born of nihilistic dreams
Asphyxiations resonating with weight of darkened shades
Buried deep within my apocalyptic flesh plagued
Unhallowed by necromantic tongues
Yet aeons subsist in pale ash reflection
My childish longing adrift in rhapsodies bled white
Dulcet along the wounds of somnolent sorrow
Innocence...

Unhallowed by necromantic tongues
