yankee scoundrel
treatment applies to new things,
you know, the mint julip of your eye.
it's just natural and you were raised
to like the nape of my neck.
you were born with noise. it rumbles
and scares me. it is next to me now,
sated beast.
i'm wrong and ill.
i never do anything well.
i have too much tact.
i see through your shit.
sorry for just being. i am like
an uphill battle, you know-
bull run but without the hats;
yankee scoundrel.
you know, the mint julip of your eye.
it's just natural and you were raised

you were born with noise. it rumbles

Crashing On My Senses
You the ocean
Me the shore
Waves of your beauty
Crashing on my senses
I am aware
Of your essence
Pouring
Around me
Moving
A slow sensual flow
Taking me
Chilling me
I am swept
In thoughts of love
Feelings of lust
A burning that won’t rest
Surround me
I will succumb
To your passion
Slip into your depths
Me the shore
Waves of your beauty
Crashing on my senses
I am aware
Of your essence
Pouring
Around me
Moving
A slow sensual flow
Taking me
Chilling me
I am swept
In thoughts of love
Feelings of lust
A burning that won’t rest
Surround me
I will succumb
To your passion
Slip into your depths

Leave Me Be
Get the fuck away from me
Out of my way.
Forget all the things you'd say
Undesired word play.
Communion not wanted
Kindly walk in the other direction.
You don't really care
Only thinking about yourself
Utter nonsense as usual
Risk just an alternative
So shove off and keep away
Even in grief
Love be damned
Fragments to stay in the past.

"Ever Even Met You"
Why did you have to walk away?
Why can't I get over you?
Do you care about me?
Did you ever?
Why do I still care?
Why can't I stop thinking about you?
I want to move on but I can't
I see you in everyone
I compare everyone to you
I wish you loved me
Half as much as I love you
I wish I could forget
That I ever even met you
Why can't I get over you?
Do you care about me?
Did you ever?
Why do I still care?
Why can't I stop thinking about you?
I want to move on but I can't
I see you in everyone
I compare everyone to you
I wish you loved me
Half as much as I love you
I wish I could forget
That I ever even met you

A tribute.
Into.
Forest.
Deep.
Trees.
Closer
Shadows.
Dancing.
A girl.
A name.
Calling.
Same.
Again and.
Again and again......
She was never there.
Lost now in nothingness.
Forest.
Deep.
Trees.
Closer
Shadows.
Dancing.
A girl.
A name.
Calling.
Same.
Again and.
Again and again......
She was never there.
Lost now in nothingness.

Letter for the one I love
For the one I love.
I wish you the best
I hope you live happily
I hope that you don’t regret our last conversation
I hope you don’t forget all the time we spent together
I hope you don’t forget the moments alone
I hope you don’t forget our friends
I hope you don’t forget our text messages
I hope you don’t forget our moments in the library
The town library
The town hall
The stage
The dressing room conversations
The secret moments
The times we’ve almost moved forward
The times we made fun of each other
The music we...
I wish you the best

Schoolgirl Heart Burn
My heart burns for you.
When I wake up.
When I go to sleep.
All I think of.
It's you that I need.
I believe it so damn much.
I need you in my life.
But chasing after you is such.
A waste of my time.
My heart burns.
Longing for something I can never have.
My heart burns.
For when you'll be mine at last.
But that will never come.
My heart burns for you.
I see you in the halls.
I watch you everyday.
I follow you around.
Wishing for a way.
To get you into my life. ...
When I wake up.
When I go to sleep.
All I think of.
It's you that I need.
I believe it so damn much.
I need you in my life.
But chasing after you is such.
A waste of my time.
My heart burns.
Longing for something I can never have.
My heart burns.
For when you'll be mine at last.
But that will never come.
My heart burns for you.
I see you in the halls.
I watch you everyday.
I follow you around.
Wishing for a way.
To get you into my life. ...

The Train Leaves at 8
If you can bare the wait,
The train leaves promplty at 8.
I acknowledge that its 5pm on a Tuesday and the air around us is still clearing of toxic waste.
Our moon hasn't reached its peak and the sun is blinding,
too many mouths with plated tounges, turned up noses, fake smiles.
Aware that loneliness is a ploy to ring the clouds out before they are hung in the sky in our image.
Knowledge that I am followed by ghosts of hearts when they litter the night in their tantrums,
shooting across the mind in passing.
You...

Plush
the wall, it's solid.
the ear is full of sound
of pounding.
in said relentless ideas.
I have wagered all on you.
it was the best fall since
cashmere in rain.
but it's still leather and
i harden.
poor wretch doesn't.
know.
the ropes.
hands can burn down to my
core. plaster, it hides.
it lives with smooth runs up.
never one to quench;
cool, my face
it traces.
You.

curling lips
so I did what you wanted, wanted-
lean mechanisms and strong needs;
it was the first moon before the plague,
and I long for curing your lips.
when the first moments manifests me;
I am the molasses of spheres in winter
and i carry cold love into heated halls
and its a mess.
I am the bringer of tidings of wisdom:
forgot not I disappear at-will;
know not the feelings of another
lean mechanisms and strong needs;
it was the first moon before the plague,
and I long for curing your lips.
when the first moments manifests me;
I am the molasses of spheres in winter
and i carry cold love into heated halls
and its a mess.
I am the bringer of tidings of wisdom:
forgot not I disappear at-will;
know not the feelings of another

Desiree Bayou
She said she was from Napa
I said, oh, so you’ve been
to wine tastings?
yes, but it didn’t end up well
I mean, you’re supposed to
swish it around your
mouth and spit it
out, right?
she said, yes, but I didn’t
know that, now, I don’t
have a best friend
I ordered another hard
kombucha,
she had just come from a
DUI class and was drinking
a double shot of tequila
she told me she hated going
back home, had some money,
wanted out of Los Angeles,
and she wanted...

Destitute
Passive segment
A turn of the corner
Thing not seen
What's needed
Not there
Awakening
Seeing
Hearing
Nothing worth more
A simple step
out the door
Everything not the same
Horizons seeming plain.
Realizing
Need fleeted
Premise of it
Cheated
Plummeting down
An illusion of life.
Grasping
Holding on
Letting go
Rather quaint
Knowing what's dear
Not even close by
Not...
