Deserted
Deserted; you have left me
wandering alone, only my mind
to accompany my sad song.
I sing it to an audience of one;
myself.
Confused; I remain lost,
you say you love me,
yet you refuse to speak
the language of both
our hearts.
Waiting; my passion pleads
to be expressed in its fullness,
with

A small garden
I'm a small garden of the soul -
A place where we keep patience in tending roses...
thinking of each other,
trying to blossom like flowers.
Anh oi
I'm not a fickle wind
That blows whenever I want
or only when your heart desires...

The bird couldn't do it
Gondola was prepared to welcome you
You desired the white clouds instead
A void settled on the palm of my hand
The bird too couldn't unfold its wings

break-up Senryus
Quick break-up Senryus.
Pick one to quickly, cut that old
relationship cord:
I'm sorry, say what?
I can't hear you (confused look)
- we’re breaking up.
You’re the guy that
every girl at our school wants
- it's their lucky day.
It's time that we took
our relationship to the
previous level.
I still cherish the
initial misconceptions
I had about you.

the dead choir
this choir only sings for one,
when once, blue-birds two,
the reflection of the splashing,
two souls, laughing against rapids,
when you danced, under moonlight,
I lost myself blinded to your sight,
a heaven, swiped two hands twice,
a mourning for a special someone,
the dunce springs off youth,
the affection of hand holding,
two nouns of sublimity,
Wish to rewind before that night.

WE WILL CALL IT LOVE STILL
The heart will beat
to a rhythm blood can’t read
skipping sacred moments
bearing scars of battles past.
If love comes for blood
every kindness hides a snare
the gentle touch a leech
that takes far more than it gives.
Still, we will call it love
for it laughs at our laughter
weaves hope through our silence
clings to compliments like a starving child.
If love comes

Unmade, Fire and Ice lyrics, updated
The demons come out to play, may they fall,
As they seek their next prey.
I was trapped on a merry-go-round,
Lost in salt-trodden earth and pain.
Forgive me
For praying to God for you,
While enemies hid within,
Claiming to be friends.
Salt falls on the stage, as demons sing,
A Trojan horse births the

relief
do you ever have your contact bother you all day,
and then, just before you take it out,
it fixes itself?
that’s how i feel
when i’m
with you

we were almost to the end of our walk.
“i’m dissatisfied,” you muttered, avoiding my glance.
i wish you had met my eyes.
we could have both seen
we were both
afraid of

i dreamt that we lied

lonely ache
your lonely ache,
a beast that wakes
timid and believing.....
The breathe in the cold,
of a swan stands so bold,
I go blind with uplifting hearts,
as we are magnetized
and jump over the rifts apart,
cold shivering to my blanket
that slides warmly over your skin.
Eyes curious with focusing
on a one giving comfort
in the rain that drenches
passion near grand trees
stood tall for

She's My baby
She unfolds in my arms,
like playing cards,
sneaked
under the table.
An ace up my sleeve
as the winter wind
leaves her skin
of goose-bumps
but warmth
to my rubbing
of her thighs.
My good luck
of sweet charm,
as they deal the cards
and lucky comes my way.
My lady sitting on my lap
calls the shots and smiles.

Impossible
I try so hard to understand
The man inside, apart from the band
You make me wait, testing my patience
Then all I get is one crude sentence
I can see that you aren’t so busy
I ask, but then you call me silly
No time or words for me today
I guess I

what if
what if,
we could fly
to any
destination,
and places
making us
feel safe,
I feel
God
made
a mistake
of not
granting
us wings.
I broke the vases,
vulnerable
and worth more
than
my own life.
I love you more
than you ever did,
but I won't say me,
It wasn't that easy.......
I know you adored
of the many times...
you loved me so easily
before the shattering
of the unpredictability
of this end game,
Between the swollen
of my little cheeks,
you hugged

He's still with me, Everywhere I go
And the saying goes,
That you reap what you sew.
But at this point I don't know,
What the hell I could have sewn.
I can tell you, I didn't want your anger to grow,
I could tell somebody, if I let the bruises show.
I'll tell you it isn't right, I shouldn't have to take the blow,
That you

Ego Death
Yk Mike, it was messy and ugly at times but I just want you to know I really did and do love you. In my own way.
It wasn’t textbook love, i’m a flawed person, deeply flawed.
But you meant a lot to me, this meant a lot to me.
I hope you find someone
