Our Glance

This glance we share
With mirrored laugh
It fills my head
And makes me ache
Never to trial
But ever to share
And live unto
This common bond

And I smile...

For you
With you 
In you

And you see it
But know our grasp
Is one of distance
No means to touch
Remaining only 
In the quotes 
Which spiel
And linked eyes

My What Ifs

This slippery slope, owning 5 years
It claims my thoughts, 
Splits my heart, 
And fraction’s loyalty

Bleeding dry
Yet wet with tears
I dream of you
And my what ifs 

Always.

Upon that night, you saved, you grew
I saw you hero
Indent my spirit
And commandeer.

Bleeding dry
Yet wet with tears
I think of you
And my what ifs 

Always.

You gift and play, upon request
Yet look deeply
Of free will, 
Reflected, shinning

Bleeding dry
Yet wet with tears
I feel of you
And my what ifs 

Always.

My Parallel

How can i hate you? 
I don't know you. 
Yet you have my parallel 
And own my envy. 

Maybe if i knew you 
I could see what he sees 
Understand why 
The potential can't be recognized. 

Actualised. 

Developed. 

Expressed. 

How i ache with confusion. 
Yet i know he won't reflect. 
So i ask you one thing, 
Cherish him and know this: his is a light you are lucky to bask in.

And Now We Strangers

And now we strangers
Greet like the indifferent
As if the memory eclipsed
To create less than mediocre.

No cheek, no grin
No glimmer of familiar
Only our wall of remorse
Building our division.

Before the distortion
Engulfed our direction
Did we not see a friendship
To last out the years?

But our story concluded
And by my part a regret
Though not of the past 
But of futures not encountered

I Wave Goodbye

Did I lose my friend 
Before I even met him?
Written words no more
Tell the tales of yesterday.
How I remember the true smiles
Arising from a playful typed wink,
A list of favoured, a lyrical message
Mixed with counsel and dreams
Of future fights and triumphs.

How is it so easy to destroy
A connection so luminous
With misjudged feelings?
Potential for greatness and longevity
Now smashed with no chance of repair.
Foolish in our beliefs 
That friendship would triumph.
We now know that impossible,
So reluctantly I wave goodbye.

I Beg To Differ

You imply the cruel
Based on an outcome
You fear to admit to.
Disclosing only your version 
Of truth vs. fact. 
Lies for damage limitation
Lead to fabricated trust.
Your theory of friendship’s
Compassion and kindness
Now reads like a satire.
The thoughtless consequences
Of your fairytales.
So you assume too much
And I beg to differ.

Ache

I ache for your face so close.
I can still smell you.
Taste your breath.
Feel your fate
Entwined with mine.
This time to come our hardest part
Yet we will bear, abide, adhere
For all our sakes.
Guilt aside i shall value
The moment we had
And close my eyes and relive
Our reflection.
Over and over.
Until our future says no.

Conjure

You conjure a smile,
Fragrant in my heart,
Elegant in my mind.
A beauty in my soul.
Whether eyes closed
Or mind asleep
I can see your face
Breath in your scent
Hear your voice.
When our minds meet
My head goes on overload
I feel new emotions
I never felt possible.
When our eyes meet 
My heart swells
So full, so alive
And I know I’ve found
My parallel.

Their Weak Hero

Softly softly not to smear
Your ego’s creation
Which kid gloves pat
Your yes men collective
Blind to their subdued hero
Nurture your conceit.
How you wear your crown
On your cowards brow
Pale yet blameless.
A little man in a big world
I never want to live in again.

Second Victim

I bathe in you and your lies
Will I ever learn to let go 
Wake to your obvious 
Ignorance to my warmth.
Am I so cold to you, 
My friendship ugly?
How I waste my head 
Residing over your nothingness.
A second victim of your guilt - 
That which you made vocal
But evolves you did not feel anyway.
Do you even know what you tell:
Such parody and distortion.
Will you narrate your truth  
To bring about my freedom?
