Wishful Thinking

here, where the temperature sends
uncomfortable shivers into my spine,
i look at you, your hair overflowing with shine,
the moon truly dropped amazed.

in this clustered room, where inanimate objects dwell,
moving, annihilating me with fear.
you gave me the overwhelming urge to defy life's cruelty.
with just a smile you took me away.
your stares seemingly full of desire.
your glimpses drowning me in passionate fire.

my heart shall never feel alone,
you built me a world where fantasies are so real they make me go on.
time has shown me how to love.
but you shall never be mine, for you are someone else's

the only consolation i have is that i get to hope.
at least i get to...

...wish

Caffeine

i stay awake
late i don't even need coffee
i only have to think of you
you are caffeine enough

Tell Me

tell me that
when i held your hand
you did not
squirm
that when you
saw me come
with the white rose in
my hand
you did not smile
tell me that
you did not long
for me to kiss you

on second thought
don't tell me
i won't believe you

The Unlikely Verse

Leaning towards you
    Over the shining shade
       Very quiet, very dim
          Ethereal men look for their gods
       Gods that take you nowhere  
    One by One they fade away
Defying their lives, glorifying their ghosts

Obliterate
    Revenge

          Divulge
             Illicit
                Exit

Dyslexic Fantasies

in a very exhuasting aftrenoon
i see you once more. with your almond-brown doe eyes taht
spell wisdom, a smile that says never evre fear.
there in yuor table yuo drew a picture
taht was full of color.
red, bleu, green, orange.
i went near and glismped at it.
then, i smiled.
