A Lover's Lamenting
I'm going to miss
your recitals of old poetry
Watching your mouth form
around the heavier consonants
better than I could ever do
And how you sighed the vowels
in the late evenings
Your own words full of them
in your native tongue
Or, you made them up
during the passionate chaos
of orgasmic verbiage
I'm not a woman
but I learned, earnestly
when my ear was pressed to your cheek
As my mouth lent you my growl
upon your throat
How I reversed vampirism
and gave what I could ...

Dead Like Me
Last night I met up with my soul on a cold dark road
Fed up of me many many years ago
Any idea what it is to be dead like me?
Do you think you'd be able to feel warmth & love when dead?
This morning I cut out my heart
Held it in my hands, wasn't functioning to well anyway
My body is decimated by disease & gloom
So hopeless, so tired, so lifeless
The ghosts I use to see don't scare me anymore
I'm one of them
My soul again departed on that cold dark road
Fed up of me many many years ago
Any idea what it is to be dead like me?
Do you think you'd be able to feel warmth & love when dead?
This morning I cut out my heart
Held it in my hands, wasn't functioning to well anyway
My body is decimated by disease & gloom
So hopeless, so tired, so lifeless
The ghosts I use to see don't scare me anymore
I'm one of them
My soul again departed on that cold dark road

Swallowed Me Whole
I tried to feel something
I loved her & she loved me
I don't know what happened
Everything was going well
Then all of a sudden, I got cold like there was a stranger next to me
I tried to get rid of the feeling but it swallowed me
She asked me what my problem was and how she can help
She was right next to me and it sounded like she was from another planet
I almost forgot her name
I still don't understand it
I was in love with her and then in a flash, I couldn't think of a single reason that I should be with her
I left her that night...
I loved her & she loved me

She was right next to me and it sounded like she was from another planet

I still don't understand it
I was in love with her and then in a flash, I couldn't think of a single reason that I should be with her
I left her that night...

Baby it's you
So many times when I look or hear about people being lonely
I have a feeling of sadness deep inside
It makes me wonder if I would have been alone, before I found you
What would happen if you turned around and said goodbye
Honey it's you
you're what I'm living for
I have it all, nothing more
right from the start when I found you
Baby it's you
you were the one for me
the one who's been making me see
the world with you is such a brighter place
I now realize it's you
you are my brightest star
whether you're...

The Desolate Glove
One cold autumn morning in late November a glove on the clothes line decided that life with it's mate was boring & awful.
It persuaded the clothespin to render it's hold and blew away on the next breeze.
A little girl stumbled upon it and loved the pretty colors.
She took it home and her mother got notice of it and told her daughter to throw it away.
As she was about to throw the glove away in the garbage pail outside, she became sidetracked and left the glove on the ground.
A stray dog saw the glove and began biting & tearing at...

At The Ballet
Connie was only six when she was discovered gazing at a dead rat by Madame Jenny Taylor
Madame once assoluta at the Ivaninski's, informed the Linguses that the child was to be her pupil
Long years of study began in her ballet school above a row of shops
Connie first came before the public as a peasant girl in Giselle, ou Les Wilis, devised by Madame to display her students abilities
Her life was rather dull and monotonous
She became aware of what real ballet was when Madame took her to one of Anya Neeze innumerable farewell performances
Eventually she was allowed...

This Old Mechanical Heart
A song comes on
Memories are sparked that were once lost to time
Wondering where my adolescence went
Bound by the bonds of a cruel fate’s design…
A glance leads to curiosity
When her eyes gaze closer at me in the dim light
The device ticks away behind a glass door on my chest
This old mechanical heart is wound every night
How old are you? She asks
I grin remembering my youth back in 1849
Too old, I reply with a smile, gazing into her eyes
A secret I carry with me after such a long time

Anesthesia
The world bit my heart
with blind and grim ferocity,
of primordial innocence
only the ghost remained.
I closed my eyes, fled the light,
I gasped in the breath of the crowds;
in the idiocy of those who rumble
without ever asking questions.
I found a corner inside me,
fresh and slightly tinged with half-light,
I added a moon of madness
and some notes of melancholy.
Now it is here that I stand,
in the anesthesia of time
and human anguish.
Who knows if I survive
or only feign being alive.
with blind and grim ferocity,
of primordial innocence
only the ghost remained.
I closed my eyes, fled the light,
I gasped in the breath of the crowds;
in the idiocy of those who rumble
without ever asking questions.
I found a corner inside me,

and some notes of melancholy.
Now it is here that I stand,

and human anguish.

or only feign being alive.

"out of body" for a living
yeah. somewhere in between earth & realms unseen- lost in forever dream; epitome of "Pisces" sinking downstream- forever "me...." imagine a "fish" that never learned to swim in its "proper" element-yet expected to "ascend"-that's crazy....
out of water- learned to bearly breathe; tropical sunny beach weather is the element one's forever meant to be- sand between one's bare feet-theraputic sounds of sea breeze....
someone unordinary next to me; a soul- you'd swear...

You don't need to hide.
I wasn't hiding from you.
I let you do what you do.
It helps, if you're here too.
Ill help you out.
I have secrets to shout out.
Come hear the symphony,
Of me crying out loud.
I sit and brood.
Wishing you were here, too.
There's no privacy as you intrude.
With your calm, quiet attitude.
I find you like the truth.
Come out of hiding and introduce.
Your distance is abuse.
Don't cut me off of this noose.
I like to sway in the nude.
The weather decays as they view....

A Confession or a Reality
Hollow, empty, and all alone.
Creeping despair, turning her to stone.
Drowning sorrows, suffocating silence.
Fire in her lungs, craving the violence.
All around are the ones she calls home.
Tired, exhausted, about to blow her dome.
Life seems to be one big comedy.
Some one fucking save me!
But no one ever will.
Lost in her mind
Trying to stay still.
The second she runs, she just won't stop.
The moment she thinks, she'll just drop.
Nothing to remedy the broken things inside.
Lost all her...
Creeping despair, turning her to stone.
Drowning sorrows, suffocating silence.
Fire in her lungs, craving the violence.
All around are the ones she calls home.
Tired, exhausted, about to blow her dome.
Life seems to be one big comedy.
Some one fucking save me!
But no one ever will.
Lost in her mind
Trying to stay still.
The second she runs, she just won't stop.
The moment she thinks, she'll just drop.
Nothing to remedy the broken things inside.
Lost all her...

Breathtaking
It is in the mornings
When the mask is left lying somewhere on the floor
Or possibly tangled up in the sheets
That I'm exposed to the reality of my existence
Fuck, the emptiness is breathtaking...
