if you aren't studying the darkness, are you even awake
please be patient & listen
as I try my best to explain
how some moments are eternal
disappearing in a blink
nothing is ever as it seems
see how the sun slashes
rays piercing tender flesh
raising welts & abrasions
radiant burning across pale shell
sudden blinding flashes
the only glimmers of warning
feather-touching sharp edges of pain
setting off an endless parade of relentless self-hate
my own brand of hell
look at the furrows & trenches
damage done as it marches through my brain
trampling my...

My blind side .
I will remember you for eternity. Way beyond the clouds and the sky and the passage of time . You were always my mainstay my loyal companion on two legs . My cool water stream In my moments of madness and hot headedness .On your smooth and tender lips I could fathom the answers to life what , how when can’t , can . You were my blindside that watched my back and allowed me to grow .And I often think now such a beautiful genuine soul and did I ever tell you
so ?. I just hope in my own way I was your cornerstone where you could build or rest and everything just fell into symmetry.
so ?. I just hope in my own way I was your cornerstone where you could build or rest and everything just fell into symmetry.

Larissa
I’ve been stumbling down
The corridors of memory,
Brush in hand;
Hoping to repaint
Parts of our story,
And,
I realize I’ve been looking for you
Behind every door,
In every hazy thought;
I suppose I got what I deserved;
I can only wish that I had not.
The corridors of memory,
Brush in hand;
Hoping to repaint
Parts of our story,
And,
I realize I’ve been looking for you
Behind every door,
In every hazy thought;
I suppose I got what I deserved;
I can only wish that I had not.

Sorrow
what is forever
without you
just
a supermassive
black hole
sucking in
all the universe's
sorrow
without you
just
a supermassive
black hole
sucking in
all the universe's

Sun Lion
gravitational pull, self-manifested sun
pull me closer into radiant warmth
kiss my skin with ultraviolet tongue
trails of gold spread within the spit
should my bones break
beneath the weight of lover's galaxy
ascensional recipe we create
fingers tracing a chosen face
molten mouthing lava and lace
in hidden flower creates a lake
a fortress of stone beneath the waves
throne fit for a kingdom when we play
lap the blood from my scars
disintegrate my facade
melting ice forged within my youth
no shielding...

HONESTLY, YOU REALLY DON'T MIND?
I hadn't seen her in
several years; then out
of the blue there was her
sensual voice on the phone.
After small talk and updating
the past, I told her I wanted to
see her as soon as it was convenient.
"Really?" she replied. "I'm not the
same "perfect doll" you once
circled the world in bed with."
"YES! A thousand times yes."
"Are you sure?" she asked.
She began her list:
"Do you want my fat body, I mean fat?"
"Oh, yes, I can feel and taste it now.,.

THE LAST DROP
The party
was beyond
all expectations.
The magic
created by the creative
attendees were off
the charts of
sensual expectations.
As the evening
wound down I
felt sad and glad
as i savored and
licked...enjoyed
the last drop of my
ice cream.
Meet me at the
Kissing Place
and we'll share
our last drops.

Wings of a dove .
I dreamed of the love on the wings of a dove, freely giving. Where if necessary they would let you fly high above and below, love in its purest form of compromise and understanding. Not one flutter of jealousy, or of pandering, Just a flight navigated by two but with one destination together. Diving at times, but finding their inner peace and trust and strength in the other. United soaring like two white cotton candy clouds and resting on the edge of heaven.

Starts with Self
I was a lier.
But I was lying
To myself.
Therefore, I couldn't
Be honest,
With somebody
Else.
But I was lying

Hidden Emotional States
Where is my joy?
I have buried it in a coffee tin in the back yard
Because when it is brought into the light
It is too exposed to the rain that would extinguish it
Where is my happiness?
It's in the linen closet wedged between the sheets
Far from hands that could rip it apart like tissues
Because I can't put it back together the flittering pieces
Where is my peace?
It's in the fridge by the frozen blueberries
Crystalized and fuzzy from years of...

the love you deserve
You deserve someone who is so peaceful it glows from within
Someone who is so steady in their mental fortitude that you can crumble
That you can open your mouth and everything that hurts falls out
And all that they do is smile and pull you closer
The ability to sooth innately in their soft hands
Their love so everlasting and sweet they write about it in history books
Someone who is so steady in their mental fortitude that you can crumble
That you can open your mouth and everything that hurts falls out
And all that they do is smile and pull you closer
The ability to sooth innately in their soft hands
Their love so everlasting and sweet they write about it in history books

Homeless on the streets
In the depths of a concrete jungle, where dreams are undone,
Where shadows dance with broken souls, beneath a cold, stark sun,
There lies a world forgotten, where strength and hope collide,
A realm of darkness and despair, where life's harsh truths reside.
Today, I wandered down those streets, where desperation thrives,
To feel the pulse of life's raw truth, where no one really thrives,
I pondered on the homeless souls, their existence cast aside,
The struggles they face daily, as the world turns a blind eye.
For what is life without a roof,...
Where shadows dance with broken souls, beneath a cold, stark sun,
There lies a world forgotten, where strength and hope collide,
A realm of darkness and despair, where life's harsh truths reside.
Today, I wandered down those streets, where desperation thrives,
To feel the pulse of life's raw truth, where no one really thrives,
I pondered on the homeless souls, their existence cast aside,
The struggles they face daily, as the world turns a blind eye.
