be here now

the day came and then it went
over a month has passed
my mind is still
still in the past
still
amidst the breaking tides
the beat of your heart
the beat of mine
both
intermingled
still where i left it
wake up
i am awake
my heart beats with the breaking tides
with yours
i am here
after all of this
i can be
here
now

...on a sunday

i am frigid and crass
my walls are much higher than yours
though you might get a brick
every now and then
they are never coming down
so this is your chance
to turn around now
back away and run quickly
to someone who will comfort you
on cold nights
drowning in the sorrow
of what i've done
and i'm not sorry

i can't remember even
the colour of its eyes.…

the orphan

i cannot remember
where i was born

a death came so quickly
to my small helpless body
but i cannot remember
and i don't want to try
i followed you closely
i believed in your name
but though your lips
spoke of truth
i knew your lies
looked the same
and though i don't
remember childhood
no princess on the shelf
ask me about loss of faith
because i remember
exactly how…

sad days of laughter

how i long for the days
of death and decay
of alien loves
and just indecision
falling was common
swimming in ether
knowing the moon
taking long walks
in the rain
such a comforting pain
holding a finger
veins pulsating laughter
smothering forever
and missing every minute
with you

a little something

Intricate spindles of light

Slowing through the fabric of your blouse

Running down pencil, paper, mattress

Converging in the tunnel of warmth

Created by your hand against my knee

All of us knowing

An afterthought is coming
