Wishing, I had the power to wait
A beautiful woman,...

AlternativeIt's just me moving towards the unknown
I see you reaching in like I should know
One's next move, hands out,
I don't... not any longer
My only excuse... it's been and done,
Again... "bring it"
Shall I express something you...

The way I could
I failed to hold on
The way I should

I failed to care
When no one was around
I failed to be...

RememberBreak my heart again and again,
Thoughtless words you speak at me,
What you think I want to hear,
Just proving what you fail to see.
Choices you make, love you take,
Spin the words, my fault you say,
Self-destruction, for...

Pinch Me Poke MePinch me, poke me
I still dream
Poets rattle
Every ream
Words don't fail me
As I fall
I want to capture
Love, is all
Blank page
Staring
At the start
Composition of the heart
Blues and blacks
They flutter by
Angel's wings
Ooh.. butterfly
Nighttime thoughts
Longing...

Decided To Leave MeI’d be a fool to say I don’t miss You,
After all this time I foolishly
Thought there something I could do.
Maybe it would help me understand,
A way to have a chance to start
All over again.
To...

At Another MomentTalking sweetly, we walked slowly
Then you hit me in the back
Like a boulder I was rolling
Down the hill and down the track
That’s the friendship I’ve beknown
Still a great surprise to me
When too...

Words were his secular style shields
Sugar skull sentences steam today in forever fields

Behind The Curve
Do you need me as much as fish
A waterproof raincoat would need?
A piece of salmon on your dish
Is dressed with sprouts and beet
You watch the breaking news report
One candidate withdrew
His rival did...

I Now Can Go OnAnother day has come and gone
As I sit here alone,
Another year again passed by,
As I sit here alone and try not to cry.
So many things we had yet to do,
So many dreams we had...

LamentWhat more a f*cking fickle fable
Is found forlorn like this
Full of feeble fallacies
Far from fields of bliss
A word abused like ‘love’
withdraws,
so when it finally shows
It shines too brightly
Or too dim…
And kills whatever grows

Sullied Threads From YesterdaysThere's a pile of sullied threads on the floor
from muddied quarrels of our yesterdays
Remnants of life that we stripped bare
like sheets from a bed needing laundering
It's a hoard of soiled and frayed toggeries
too foul from...
