Wrecked FantasyScratched my eyes once, saw the truth twice
But the pain is triple killing
Your summer citrus smell on my cracked shell
Rotted like hell in my cerebral wishing well
How can my phantom sanctuary betray me?
It feels vivid...

The Quiet ache of a solitary soulIn the corner where shadows dance,
Amidst the whispers of silent hearts,

Kaleidoscope GirlKaleidoscope Girl
She is made of glass
of broken pieces
And shattered fragments
She has jagged edges

trapped in a cage....

Hey, SelfHey, Self
Hey self,
I called your number
I was hoping you’d pick up
But I had no luck
You sent me right to voicemail
It's been awhile
I wanted to hear your voice
Raw, messy
Wavering and raspy
Hey self,

Raven and WrenRAVEN AND WREN
As the world wakes up
To the sun’s gentle rays of light
Frozen memories melt and flow
Penetrate but do not satiate
Moments of insipid sight
A scenery of incessant delight
As the raven chases the wren
