Cold, dark and alone.
Tree, unseen wrapped in shadow.
Red burning eyes dim.
. . .
Awakened sun.
Swallowed whole horizon.
Rising or falling?
. . .
Dreams dance in night time.
Ashy concrete walls entomb.
Awake, my dreams die.
. . .

Crank turning, rusty heart.
An old soul pushes past pain,
body fades. Love endures.
. . .
Words buried, trapped,
swell within, a writers mind,
idle fingers ache.
. . .
True Love Never Fails
Often, tired, wounded, hurt.
True Love Never Fails

Under night’s cold, lost.
Communal spirit, dies alone.
Daylight humans cry.
. . .
My apparition,
drowns within false ocean sounds
daylight claws my tomb.
. . .
Brain drinks sweet sunlight,
soul tastes the sweet sound of people.
Lost, to night. Starving…
. . .

Define you. Yourself.
Others Darkness, scratch false portraits.
Beautiful mirror. You.
. . .
Others matter more.
Death steals, pieces of hearts.
Others, matter more.
. . .
How does the story land?
Soft white butterfly, drifting?
To be human. Told.

Impact, owner-less.
Evil words consume soft souls light.
Intent. Hates, disease.
. . .
Underdog. Hope lost.
Fighting until breath is spent.
Over under, my minds wager.
. . .
Yellow, warm light seeps in.
Sipping gray fog from hearts cup.
Pain’s ache becomes scars.
. . .
