By night, that heart-
Its escaped from my prison of a chest.
Through darkness
It knows no other way than to search for you-
Your moonshine skin
And roman candle hair.
The rest of me remains, sit and wait
For your ghost to reappear to me as I sleep.
The sand grains of white
Stolen oceans and red flaring lights
Natures golden bright raining avenues;
Is this the color of regret?

Where the living came to drown.
You alone, are a dream.

Deep rivers…they run for you,
Touched fires
And sailed your ships.

I didn’t mean for me to wake you.
Your skin just glows like sundust in the air.
And I will love you if you want me to.
I will try to love you if you’re wanting me to care,
I care, I do.
I will love you now if you are asking me to.

You’re all that I feel-
Blood that pumps my heart out.
You’re all that I taste-
The aching inside of my mouth.
I love you-the dark-as it should be loved;
That’s more than the stars-more than enough.

And your name…rings like melancholy-
Hymns in my ear;
Devilish flesh yet to be still.
I’ve wondered about you,
Insatiable lonely dust
Churning memories into liquid lust…
Its just water.
Separating us.
Mediocre, to be swam, or gypsy sails-
Oh so easily.
You emerge from my fingertips
Howling with amorous fever.
Blazing like nights overturning
Into the dawn…
With ghostly shadows dancing-
Flickering on your brow,
That delicacy just strokes your back
And remains so unseen by your
Landscape eyes.

Their dots connect like the silence
Of my constellations;
Falling asleep with my hand on your chest-
If only as reliving what I once owned of you,
Now passing itself off as a dream.
One day you may lift your arms
And I’ll be beneath you in hail storms of
Tears from my glacial heart-
Desperate as you once were for me…
I’ll be seeking shelter in your cold sea.
