A Dream In Color

I saw you in a dream last night,
When I awoke I thought I knew
You once more, but it was only
A dream in color.

You kissed me on the floor, and
We danced on the ceiling.
We spun in the unnecessary 
Touch of the other half.
Blurry, but clearest of all visions
I was home.

Awoke in a sweat, pretending I 
Don't know what's bothering me.
Reading through the laughter,
Etching our names in the tier of
Rust that covers our past,
I was home.

I saw you in a dream last night,
when I awoke I thought I knew
You once more, but it was only
A dream in color.

Snowdrifts

Reality, like snowdrifts
Catching off guard, disregarding warm glow of sun.
Chilling through the bone.
Soul turns physical.
Pain,
Losing clarity, rational thought and peace of mind.

Snowdrifts, catching of guard
Showing unbearable clarity to reality that won't be changed.
Teeth chatter,
Soul clatters,
Pain,
No rain only snowdrifts.
Journey to the burning cold of hell on earth leaving innocence to suffer.

Future

Future,
Suture,
Sew it up, blow it up,
Doesn't matter, paint splatter
Can't inhale, only exhale.

Blow it up, doesn't matter
Paint splatter, on the past...
Wear it like a mask
Trip on debris
Fall into the sea of future(SPLASH!)
Wearing all my sutures...

Interval

Two pages later and two poems in between,
The bench we sat on and I.
My heart sold, but not bought,
Remember the rain, and we got caught
It was never so lovely, or welcomed
I have tried, but only cried,and
My tears overwhelmed the rain.
Two pages later and two poems in between,
The bench we sat on and I.

Truth

No fountain of proof,leaving truth to stand on it's own.
Like, a myth 
Slanted, sideways
Passing on by ways
Truth

Wilted

Beautful blossom of color, 
The light give you new life, the dark does not do you justice.
You manipulate my senses at you will giving me new life.
We will walk together, but not as one.
The glow of daylight will soon fade,
Neglecting you, in turn me, and walking together
We will wilt.

Angel Drops

Pointing at stars and counting eyelashes.

Your tears like, angels falling from heaven
Full of sorrow, and yet beautiful.
Reminding me that we are only souls.

Your perceiving is as easy as breathing.
Knowing all the while, that's even been hard.

So, we catch everyone.
Making a wish with every breath.

Pointing at stars and counting eyelashes.
