Keeping here,painted in smears,letting goof teardrops from a moonwhose face is that of a silver trace,whose presence waitsfor another night, seeing me, unanswered. Broken song.A wail from a throat,and in the reiterating of speech, I repeat what I thoughtwas never said, was never repeated, was never saidwhen we were never wed. It was said,a long…

Left to dreaminside a colorless void,empty as daylight’s ghost.It is bitter,without the resolveI had hoped was thereto greet me. Branching pathwayscould bring mein reverse,or sideways. I’ll remain here,as still as the secondI have caught,reflected in a teardrop. I’ll be amongwhat othershave laid to rest,drying outin the earth,denying destinations,deciding oncrude resignation. Life is the retellingfrom different…

Brutal timelineof a storyleft razor sharpon a cliff’s edge. You sunderwhat leftoverburning hope there isfor a paradiseto be built. What a lifeyou’ve restrained,bleeding cutsinto floods,turning honestyover closed eyelids. You kneelin a clogged avenue,ample with yearningto become someonewithout vacancy. To fulfill some setof bold words,to bring to flamea rekindled passion,go to deraila train packedwith unmentioned,unneeded doubt.

Bold formationof you,in the ivory. I’ve been blamingthe onefor this vision. I’ve lost faithin the present,conditioning myselfto see starsduring daylight hours. I want backwhat I’ve knownwouldn’t last,once your lifewas fatedfor another haventhan my arms. Heaven was betterfor you,leaving the Hellthat broke your flesh. Salvation should bea warm certaintyfor almost everyone. Am I among thosewho are…

Future revisionscan’t drag forwardour glow,not until history’sburning pagesare forgiven. No brand newspeech of our dayscan erase what harmbroke our mindsinto the pieceswe still collect. Looking down,we remaindropping the samerebirthed weight. Looking up,clouds are formingfor their monochromatic,state of disdain. We’re findingthat we’ve not stoppedour surge, our drifttowards a lighthousewe imagined. A slate can’t be cleaned,an ocean…

It hands outwhat you whisper for.You hang onthroughout your breaths,until you’re revealingthe wounds,those you sealedas thin cracks. Round stretchesof pale skin.Depleted fleshthat hangs loosefor ongoingurgency. You’re starvingfor safetyamong suchlowest scenes. You’re damagingthe sole connection,the one roadback to reality. There’s this nakedphenomenon.It forges your loyaltytowards the pastwith all itsscattered highways. The one routeis the lone pathwayfor…

Remedying hesitationwith rising smokefor nostrils,those that barelyever breathed. While wedwelled on safetywithin limits,we weren’t drinkinga forgotten truth. There’s no warmthfrom seeing what falls,from up close. There’s brisk airto take in,when the earth quakes. From embersthat liquifya current tragedy.From faceswe once knewto ease our despair. There’s a lessonto build with,once we inhalea memoryto be kept near,until…

It ripples,within merciful,forcefulfinality. It angles,inside asymmetrical,distortedsanctity. The death,that neither of us,wanted to seecome to lifehas dawned. The decisionto let you leavehad been hurtingthe part of usstill hoping. I denywhat’s shifted meinto a sidewaysfit of ridicule. Could Ihave stopped death,before it,on its ashen wings,came aboard? I revisethe lettersI’ve long tossedinto an ocean.

Still the dirtfor youto crawl through.Undressyour wounds,to revealyour infection. It has leakedthrough delays,those you’ve counted.You’ve long knownwhat had to be done,before running. You wash your handsin your blood,fortifying denialwith iron. You’re been reflectingthis blunt weather,through a puddleshowing streams. Such resistancespreads nothingexcept vapor,the monochromeleaving your lungs. You create the stormto concealthrough its thunder,its clash of clouds,your…

Your remnants,captured,somewhat alive,inside a bottleto drink from,during whatever chancethere might be left. I have no answersto fill inthis raging void,cutting me offfrom what I must doto survive. I cannot risehigher than a linedrawn on the surface,paralyzing meon both sides. There are screams,there are wishesto flood fields with.Here, I’m driftingafter letting goof your handto the burning…

Over the mirrorfor yourself-condescension,your universehas been inflatingyour secrets. In your reflection,you are knotted,holding back a lifeout of fearof what followsafter a second. Simplicityis your drawback,while a kind gesturecompels youto rethinkwhat you failedto bring. Your imaginationtravels everywhereto find enemiesin shadowsthat never existedbefore you made themfrom red clay. Your woundsare your answersto keep runningyour mouthdown a cave,echoing…

Bite the lipthat tremblesfrom a first beliefthat turbulencehad cleared. Drown the achein Neptune’s flood,after broken fleshhas been burieda total of twice. To rememberyour fall,I’ll be temptedto dive right in,to reclaim what I hopeddeath wouldn’t take. To revisitwhere your lighthad vanished,I might use the momentto explore a realmunmeant for beating hearts. You’ve been promisedbetter peace,greater reliefthan…

Distinguishingiron truthsfrom limitless,liquid directions,we’ve let inmere sounds,muted messages. There are visionsthat know whatto see, in knowingthere are other sightsunable to be unseen. The deaths of manycan’t filter pastthe tyrannical unconscious,passing filtersplaced under deceit. A life must recognizespaces in the ivy.Always overgrown,as it still showswhere growthmust go. Fires cannotsolve everythingat once. Distill the snowto be drunkon…
