"Water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink" - Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
An everlasting pool. A pool of memories. 
Like picking a grape off a vineyard, you choose one to remember.
Then you put it back. No trace of taking it, except your own conscience. 
Some sweet and beautiful, some ugly and unpleasant, but nevertheless there.
With age...

beckoning the cold blooded
silent slitherer

This poem was inspired by my best friend and her troubles: )

We go out on our first date,
We go back to your house,
Your parents are asleep,
We go to your bedroom,
You tell me you love me and that you will take care of me,
I wake up thinking of last night your laying next to me holding...

The Garment District

Overnite

City trucks slowly rumble along the street

Dust
Dirt
DNA

All powerhosed 
What's left suspends like your aura

Perfume lingering
Forgiveness falling, gliding almost

unseen

         a golden leaf deep in the forest
Resting among fellow leaves 
Experienced in changing seasons

Cautious

         but not fearful

Cautious

Smile. Laugh. Why must you command yourself?
Dont cry. Dont show them your organs. 
Its all a lie, isnt it?
The very fabrics of life. 
Do they see pain upon your face?
Does the sadness seep through?
Tears crystalize in your eyes. 
Your too brave to risk wiping them away,
and not brave enough to let them pour. 
Blink them...

For 15 years I have loved you
It is beyond a kiss
It is beyond a hug
It is beyond our friendship

You will find my love
In the lyric you hear
In the sunlight that warms you
In the food you make
I am the life you have touched
I am the love you have lost

For 15 years I have loved you 
And...

I am space. And I am time. I can see wind and I can be kind.
I can breathe you, yet you can't breathe me.
I am the oceans, but you're not the seas.
I am the rain. You are my pain.
I am the Sun. You were my fun.
I was the storm. I am outrage. So angry. So...

What am I looking for, what am I hiding
reunited with my past self, can't help but repent;
did I lose myself or am I still finding,
hoping for my tomorrow just to escape my present.

Masked my troubles with so-called escapisms
denied the truth that was embedded deep within;
thoroughly washed away all my musings,
mastered the art of self-loathin'

Pushed and...
