Village in the Valley left behind, and then it's a fine find

With the words I say…with the actions I make…

sorta abrupta,
hand-in-hand with his mom,

“After Y2k,
time will spin out of control anyway,”
flamed...

Moments from perfection, skin glistening with moisture,
Salty and sweet from love - love so amazing
That it stunned us every time ...
Always better than before, and always...

Effulgent sun proffers love 
Clambering…

I sing my songs with rageful joy in mind,
Forgetting the past struggles, aches and sorrows
That intertwine with my mind’s eye, leaving all of me behind
Forgiving others of their wrongs for better tomorrows

I feel much like trash
When I’m not earning cash

To say my goodbye's
To your love-me-not lies

Where do you dwell?
In...

my veins
into each cell
turning them against

they follow another
a stronger...
