The Tiredness in a Man's Eyes
In all hanging eyes,
There is but one,
With a lone stare upon a someone,
Though, he is too much a toiled man,
With the same stains on his hands.
Now when blood is shared with blood,
His hands have only held another’s.
A woman’s hands are as frail as the oldness she’ll grow into
Upon when the world looks to her, with brightest kindness.
Now when kisses are shared with kisses,
And futures seem bright with warmth and song,
Death is upon his door,
Failure clothes his bones.
Guilt always amasses the weathered and beaten, ...
There is but one,

And futures seem bright with warmth and song,
Death is upon his door,
Failure clothes his bones.
Guilt always amasses the weathered and beaten, ...

In all of Beauty's Breath
Blindness,
And kindness,
Smooth pages like the silk upon a bed,
A place, as well,
Where softness gently swells,
In some core of a woman’s bosom.
Like two golden apples,
Those breasts were wielded.
Like two pillars of marble,
I have seen the highest, standing legs.
And I’ll lay you down,
To where the ocean’s ripples are the calmness,
Until we create a storm,
And make the world know our presence.
I’ll kiss, and kiss, again,
Your sweet and delicate form.
Love will be our curse and our blessing,
From...

Our Place in Everything Simple
White petals, makes paths atop your pale flesh,
Unseen, alike wherever your eyes trail.
Unheard were the words from your parted mouth,
And the love we’ve made ourselves
To care for, in a place of simplicity.
A mourning,
Upon one morning,
A few droplets were against your hair,
And had stayed there,
For me to count their number,
And for me to pull them away,
Alike the petals atop your pale flesh.
Shall we dance, with pity in our mouths?
While we love,
Shall we count kisses against our mouths?
I believe love will...
Unseen, alike wherever your eyes trail.

While we love,
Shall we count kisses against our mouths?
I believe love will...

One Tear Against a Thousand Forms
Of all romance, and of all aromas,
Romantic and aromatic,
Footsteps fall onto the floor with grace,
And allow the moon to drop that single tear,
Upon her ever-worn and smoothed face,
Alike the rocks that receive the wind.
Love is a calling,
To her feeble form.
Though, she is but a stone,
With the fragrant moss upon her gray skin,
Still youthful, with all the energy
Befitting a woman young at heart.
How would I kiss this vision
Without knowing the curse to which
Makes me a man without acceptance?
I have to...

As Sorrow Painted Her Cheeks
I looked towards the best of graces,
Feeble and fevered with the best of faces
Upon idle curves and forms inescapable.
She was known as the best harlot,
In a palace filled with indescribable
Lust and hurled pleasures.
And, upon the plates
There were eyes stuck to faces pointed
At all contents for cleansing of hunger,
She promised to cleanse their hunger,
She promised to elate their arousal,
To ever-higher states.
She had placed me at a corner for my mind to simmer,
At the thought of one burning touch, ...

When Faces Pour Plentiful Tears
I was a father to her life,
And even a mother to her strife,
I acted my part,
So that she’ll reside
Among fertile valleys and sunlit glades.
I was in the mood to touch,
Where spots could be soothed,
Where wounds could be mended,
Though, eyes were only pulled closed.
Among death, and among sadness,
I was the most fertile, to send tears upon my feet,
And grow,
All the life we barely know,
From wasted soil.
And, as she said to me,
“There are greater joys,
Than this heartfelt toil.”
I blew kisses in her...

A Fable of Limitless Grief
Place me at the direction,
Like a child with two teeth to spare,
Of the place where a home resides,
On its own,
In the great wilderness,
The infinite wilderness,
Of my limitless grief.
I wish to be out,
Yet, I cannot stay out,
Because, my mind is where hours are lost,
In the thoughts.
You were beautiful in a form,
With eyes that shone above, greater than flame
Upon the surface to the sun,
And with arms to sweep
The children close to heart,
Love would not succeed.
Love has a mind of its own,

Her Grief Behind the Veiled Eyes
Love will never go as planned,
Not like we demand,
Here’s an altar for your wisdom, your teachings,
A sea of suffering is for your body,
For you to swim in all tears we’ve collected.
Yet, could you stand the salt?
The taste of pain in your mouth,
Might be enough to protect.
Why had we loved?
Why had we never sinned,
Even as our exploration only gained the rich sorrow?
Even of a world without another tomorrow?
Even of all to see in the faces we borrowed?
Even of everything to die for, in each pain we followed?
I...
