Trying To Meet You

I was trying to meet you
When i awoke in a bad dream
In sky and love I fell
And I was you

Xenon Cry

Xenon cry, reverberator night It's either wounded near death Or calling out, the blurred lines Between hurt and lonesomeness Why it felt so cold Like the world face, turning to its fate? Where the ominous black pulls back its shaw Showing us where we will all end up Like the xenon crying out in a reverberating night

Wild Beasts At Play

where shadows devour twilight
there are wild beasts at play
they dwell in their aphotic world
and we are two of the same

Your eyes, their amber burn
with embers heavy like the stars
bear weight to rest upon my feeble heart

what a burden

and what a burden
to have a taste
for it to be ripped away like the light of day

while by natures chords
the sky is spun like a cosmic gyre
your allure emanates pain like a wild fire

your cries howl the night
your hide as black as it's affliction
our dark sunken minds
we are wild beasts at play

Fleeting Voyage

From up here the stars pass like street lights
as I sit back and stare into ancient history
I've never been this far away from home
the thought comes just as easily as it goes
She’s takes my hand and my thoughts cascades into a blur
I can feel the hum of the universe
to a land of dreams
She says she’ll take me
far away from everything
just as I wake

Dark Cathedral

Dark art in a black cathedral
Everyones invited see all the people
Dressed as ghouls in barrows with wights
love is the spider that consumes the fly

Half my face for all to see
the other side black like the darkest sea
Moonshine falls on crystal eyes
the bones of our minds creak and sigh

Midnight mare moves with me
We rock and sway like ships at sea
On an ocean plain of marble floor
Within my heart her anchors moored

Abyssal Sky

I found myself at the bottom looking up
For all that was dark and barren was this below
I was in what felt like desolation
And we were all strange creatures
The shelf was miles high
Just below a soft azure
Before it plunged into an abyssal sky

This Black Night

This black night, cast asleep
i've walked into midnights dream
Animal calls and talking trees
the sidewalk smiles with crooked teeth
A tired moon yawns while giants lay
A star littered sky is set ablaze
The soft wind wanders
like the astronomer
as it keeps me company
in a bright world sundered

Off Bird

It's fast and it moves
It rides the wind like waves
Their feathers sheer the sky
A moving amalgamation 

Natures hive-mind
Dominates the aerospace
The everchanging form
An orchestra of grace

But not the dischordant flutterer
Who zigzags in its pace
The off bird in aerospace

Mr Jangles

Scurry scurry, Skitter scatter
Tick tick tick 
He found the cheese platter
Resting on jean
Metal in the air 
Riding down Beach
Wind in his fur
He has no jacket
Nothing like that
Because he’s a tiny 
Little white rat
