Moving On
I was chasing you
trying to talk to you
trying to find the right words to say
but you wouldn't stop
you didn't give me a chance to talk
you just kept running away
I couldn't keep up
I had to stop
and when I did
I realized
Even if I caught up
you wouldn't listen
.....
This was the third time
that i've had this dream
I think my mind is trying to tell me
to move on
it doesn't matter what I want to tell you
no words can fix what happened to us
I subconsciously want
that one last...

You'll Miss Me
You'll miss me
When no one else seems to care
Because your attitude
Is what got you there.
You'll miss me
When you need a hug
But you'll never get one
Because of the stubborn grave you dug.
You'll miss me
When you start to fall
But you pushed everyone away
So you have no one to call.
You'll miss me
When you want to give up
And no one hears your silent screams
You'll wish you had my love.
You'll miss me
When you've finally had enough
Of letting your ego control you
At least...
When no one else seems to care
Because your attitude
Is what got you there.
You'll miss me
When you need a hug
But you'll never get one
Because of the stubborn grave you dug.
You'll miss me
When you start to fall
But you pushed everyone away
So you have no one to call.
You'll miss me
When you want to give up
And no one hears your silent screams
You'll wish you had my love.
You'll miss me
When you've finally had enough
Of letting your ego control you
At least...

Taste the Sea
Can I not now wish you good fortune?
Can I not now wish you every last happiness?
We stand upon this high hill and look over all that we've known
And distantly the crash of unknown waves calls me
It has been such a long time since we stood here side by side
It is a cruel fate of my own making, that we waited so long
But the sky has turned to the brightest blue
And the sun glistens in your hair, black with silver
But now a new wind rises, and I have already walked so far
Yet you stand on that distant cliff, painted against a fiery sky
And I go...
Can I not now wish you every last happiness?
We stand upon this high hill and look over all that we've known
And distantly the crash of unknown waves calls me
It has been such a long time since we stood here side by side
It is a cruel fate of my own making, that we waited so long
But the sky has turned to the brightest blue
And the sun glistens in your hair, black with silver
But now a new wind rises, and I have already walked so far
Yet you stand on that distant cliff, painted against a fiery sky

when i see
an unforgiving soul
i see more than just
an unjust and a narcissistic
human
i see
a lost one
lost not only
of way home
but also one
that is now a captive
of war
the war no one saw
when the dominant
of the internal fraternal twins
that are the conscience and ego
crushed the other
into little more
than a vegetable state
the latter landing blows
at the feeblest
of sniveling
a sad story walking
a pretty
manicured and landscaped graveyard
i see more than just
an unjust and a narcissistic
human
i see
a lost one
lost not only
of way home
but also one
that is now a captive
of war

Ghost
Whisper your sweets
Right into my ear
The slightest breeze
Lets me know you're here
But I cannot see
You won't allow that
Hiding in the shadows
To claim my habitat
I'd say I love you
But you're not really there
When I try to love someone new
Your whispers turn to blares
I am unaware
Of a love like this
I am unaware
Of what your kind truly is
You are a ghost
Pretending to be alive
Feeding me lies
While sucking me dry
But I will not give...

Picnic For One
Placing a feather
on my dry-moated keep
I returned to my picnic blanket cliché,
propped on one elbow,
popping fragrant, flavoursome delights
merlot-sipped and crustily tasty
into my mouth,
while the wind busied itself with my hair
ruffled and teasingly tousled.
Gold turns to rosé-stain
then sparkling silver - with a streak
“Make a wish!”
but my mind demurred
so my heart spoke its hope
hidden, wordless.
Gazing at the smudged milky-way ghost, ...
on my dry-moated keep

Full Circle
I left and my worst nights were there to greet me.
Rock bottom before was nothing compared to half of the stuff that was about to hit the fan.
Nothingness.
I force myself back onto my feet.
In spite of you and everyone that tried to tear me down.
I'm still standing strong, motherfucker.
Healthy, thriving.
You cannot take this from me.
You cannot take anything from me anymore.
I am free.

They never stay.
When a man states "I care" and "I'm here" .. it's only temporary.
I am ONLY his..
temporary
fix..
and cheap thrill..
for what's been missing in his

I'm no loss of yours if you
never wanted me to stay to begin with..

Insight
In the fall I
like to lie in
bed and listen
to the leaves
being blown
by the wind
and think
of you
But it does
not make
me feel sad
I now realize
that you were
nothing more
than a leaf
letting yourself
be blown in
any random
direction and
distance away
from love
like to lie in
bed and listen
to the leaves
being blown
by the wind
and think
of you
But it does
not make
me feel sad
I now realize
that you were
nothing more
than a leaf
letting yourself
be blown in
any random
direction and
distance away
from love

Makers Match
I turn from what once was
Amongst the torment struck
A life meant in light towards the night
To find the dark my only way
A cinder cast towards the flames
Reaping upon the sin therein
To feed upon the pain of life
Don’t step back, break through
The notions held throw them in
Burn them upon the fire to cease
Through the motion
A calling devotion
Wakes within a dark rebirth
The passage torn of willing
My choice and predetermined path
Stand upon the same free flowing track ...

Burn them upon the fire to cease
