My heart so lept when first,
...I beheld, her beautiful lips....

Sharing warm nectars from her beautiful, pink lips...
Pure every drop like heaven as she lept, into our love....

The future's here, it's scary to some
Hard to believe but that day's finally come
Tech stuff's lept ahead
Need to take my meds
Soon robots will even suck your thumb...

lunacy lept
is it not clear
answer no one
answer me
ear wax dripping
boiling containers
of
ink
wick
burning
heat itches
scratches momentarily
begging for bleed
looking to bleed
fire bleeds
lunacy
look
its
weeping
over the cleft
lunacy wept
?...

My heart leapt
A mile
When I seen that
Wonderful smile
I even cried
for awhile
but that’s just
not my style

we had some
good times
wish we would
of had more times
good times

but now I cant
think of what to do
because I miss
you

I just miss you...

What was your name?

Why was your pain?

I stood on the concrete,

Your blood had stained,

Wide circle of sawdust,

All I knew of you,

The remnants of your life,

The wind now blew,

From 40 stories up,

You lept,

Away from your agony,

You stepped,

Fates promise,

Now kept

I dance within my dreams
as a leaf, lept from a tree.
Twirling amongst my memories,
while I sleep beneath moonbeams.

Crimson scarves around me stream,
as I pirouette gracefully.
In ever changing scenery,
I dance the stage of dreams.

Caught in emotion
She went down to the ocean
To where the cliffs are extremely steep
And there she wept
Then finally lept
At a place called 'Lover's Leap'

But while doing here pouting
The tide took to outing
And now the tour guides to show
Where lost love and gravity
Made a large cavity
Far far on the beach below...

who squeezed out/ you’re spirit?

Remember running?

Remember laughing? Really laughing? As your restless eyes lept into the silence. 

NOW 

suck down that second hand laugh. See how easy it is. 

Dread shadows me. It seeps out of my mouth and clings to my eyes. 

They see. They laugh. 

Ha 

Please shoot the messenger.  He uses my tongue....

As the least of good intentions slept,
the dreams of all the Angels wept.
When from men’s hearts forgiveness lept,
the souls of all the Angels wept.
When brooms of evil sadly swept,
the songs from all the Angels wept.
When over truth false prophets crept,
the face of all the Angels wept.
From lost promises of faith not kept,
the eyes of all the Angels wept.

Here I find a gentle rest;
Here, a place to be.
Deeper still, a silence burns
So rising within me.
Walls of silver, flickered light--
Once, the fire lept...
Once, but now a story told,
And the tears I wept.
Oh, I am so lost at sea,
With naught to stay my eye.
Ever I am losing hope--
A sail I cannot fly.
Weep for sorrow in itself;
Weep my very soul.
Still, the glass has yet to fill,
And I am all but whole.

One day, I will finally be home....

With hair wind swept
Look straight ahead
If you blink you miss
What you just left

You try your best to find
That elusive time
As it all slides by
At the speed of life

With all you know
You shoulder on
Be it others there
Or on your own

With all your might 
You try and try
To slow it down
This speed of life

Look right, look left
Look internet 
The pages lept
As you speed read

Soon enough you find
How hard time bites
As it all slides by
At the speed of life...
