How have,Among all fairest bloomThis warmth treated you,In the criesOf senseless gloom? Still-lifeAs the ocean’s calm,Drawn for you.As plightWas whisked from you,From the spaceAs blameHad ended for you. We kissedWithout sudden departureFor lips,That caressed the edgeOf wisdom’s pledge. Wrap the laceAround your thorn.Venom to a mile,In your placeWhere you were worn,Stepping in great trial. Holding

Free the breath Swallowing you, On the way to sheltering arms That never left you. I hold the rain, As I carry Frequent, passing clouds. Shuddering from your awareness To life, on the dismal course, As elegance deserts you While idle eyes View you. Burn the temperatures That have wrapped you In ungraceful, Decline. Keep

Send back the storm.The drizzle did not make you laugh,Tickling the man-made oceanOthers created for you,On the way backFrom their arrival. You have sownThe stitches in your heart,Finding faultAmong all rewards. You bleed in the universeFarther than the nebula,Curving your formAround another dent. Walk among the desert stream,Treating the wavesAs constant farewells. Trace your form

Indestructible parasite,Quickened to the grievous wound.Bleak nectar travelling fromDried, pursed lips. We are that,We were flatUpon the desert’s oil,Drinking the wineWe liftFrom each other’s heart,Watering our eyesTo fill a garden. We are whatWe do not ignore,Behind closed doors.Failing a lifeLeft close behind. Each torment of us,We returnTo the desert’s reddishHourglass of rust.For time, we’re able

An inward paceTo a selfish place,I can hold the melting snowFallen from your limbs.You cryPorcelain, to the fire.Frozen droplets,While each arm of yoursBrings temptation, with breathTo hold you, in this trance. We danceWithin white noise.Taking to a pace,For that selfish placeWhere the world can beDuly ignored. Love has waited,As the clouds have mournedEnough, to root

Don’t you miss the foundation,During whenThe waves collapsed your shore?You were everThe face to kiss,Same with the sunriseWhen I could not turn around,For I missed the sunset. Don’t you dwell in isolation,Worshipped by those who bathe you? Falls originate from your eyes,Though the fall begins from your feet. You were delicate,In your grace.Living as those

Came abright toRemind ourselves of fewDroplets, we had brought downWith the idle crown.Love led us to the picturesque,While sunsets did strideFaces onward, ever afterwardThis grasp did slide. Birth of wakeful stories,With mirth to be unpleasantFor the fantastical entitiesWe did conjure, in serenity. Kiss for the wake of a smile,Did peel bark upon the awkward mile.
-
As we sleepAmong broken clocks,Haunting usWith the same shields,To their handsTo never touch anotherPetal of ash. You layWith all your fervor,Taken from the sun.You stayWith eyes that have seenEverything in-between,I have yet to condemn. You belongAmong the wash againstYour form and scars.You remain to tugThe rope around your neck,With all safetyFor your eyes to trek.

However we are,Weeping beneath stars?Holding how fragileOur tongues have crossedOn the kissEveryone missed. How the climbTo leave, what is kept behind,Made us more apartThan ever the seeds kept spreadingFor the lucid sakeOf dreamlike discovery. We’ll lift,Same as we’ll driftWith oceans torn apart,For the lands to contain belittlementFor the triumphOf nothing saved, for the glance. We’ll

Here sheExposes herself,In the blandest stateFor the moon’s epiphany. Wandering shallows,Hell-born streamsIn the violet,Through the waters, collectedAt her anchoring ankles. Spot the wavesCrashing from debris,Within the bloodied sea. Beauty seizes her,Widens herTo depth’s everlasting. Wearing the crown,Concealing the frownAs the monarch of doom,Weeping throughThe midnight,In shadowed rooms. A crown of dismayTo remind her towards the

For her, with ease toEach fallen leaf with dew.About her, to the smileEach thorn grows,For the while.A grace among allEmptied space,A life,Stolen awayAt the blinkOf strife. She weepsEach fragile star,Singing through parted lips,While the wavesBreak upon her scars. Guilt runs inside,White, within tides,While petals smolderIn gray fields, uncovered.Walking past sunsetsTo the storm,Where skies undress,Un-shieldsItself,From all

Live,Breathe,And do not leave,While the waters still wash usIn perplexing floods.No comprehensionFor the sadness,As tears begin to drizzleFrom Heaven,In its dust and clouds. Walk withinThe curtains that cover us.Idle, in our travesties,While blue is the storm,As redIs the deliverance,As we wield the thornSpeaking through vessels. ContoursAre the lines we’ve drawnFor our forms, in the earth.We
