Love comes and goes as the emptiness stays

Hovering low below hope and above dispair

This quiet tension

 a sullen lullaby

To be held like early fog 

Feeling something in a future unseen

Shadows dancing just out of focus

Half formed sentences

Words devolved into shapes and colors

A raging fire thirsty for life

A gust touching every cell of skin

This pivot and prose

Lays over everything

Sometimes in the morning

Sometimes in the mourning

New years kiss

I woke up with a sonj in my heart
This song was you
A collection of all the smiles and bruises my heart has collected over the years
A decoupage of hope and pink magic
A prayer to be vulnerable and soft
To be held in your sultry hips
Cradled in your rib cage
Tracing the lines in my heart
I lay docile and patient
I've waited for this wind in my sails
Prepared my vessel for this adventure
The fan rocks and soothes
While the sun winks from the horizon
This song is on repeat
My hips roll with your lucid dream
I can feel my jetpack pressed against me
And im flying
Played back every memory of the sweetest hours ive known this year
Counted the gemstones set in your iris
Took these notes to remember the words
Of the wild treasure that is your heart
The sweetest sloppy smile
a love overflowing and spilling onto me
Waking every atom with its touch
i shut my eyes and can feel your lips
My hands remember your every curve
I hear your heartbeat in my right ear
And your laughter in my left
We dance and dance and dance
Peel off the clothes and look at my scars
Peel off the skin and show you my art
I'm still smiling from the final sounds of last year
A casual boof of xanax magic erased all the days before you
I am present and ridiculous
with all the love this queer 10 year old heart can bear
Laid at the feet of my new years kiss

Blood

The familiar unfamiliar
Iron taste
Lifes pavilion
lives possibilities a million
in a naked state

Steal me
Congeal me
trap and swallow me whole

In a wave in a way
out of my mind
out of my soul

Recoil of the lungs
from the depths they plunge
Where does freedom live and die

We can't all be found
Silly carbon compounds
The key to all that's sound and thrives

Know one hears to notice
In near or foreground
Past this place
Barren wretched space
Bleeds the needs and the how

Not one drop
One flight of regret
Not one stain
One word left unsaid

Missed no heart break
No cardiac arrest
Missed no love song
No song of the dead

Wind filled rivers
Carry thoughts to my brain
All life's angles
Devils and angels
Trapped in red rain

raw

pursue myself

this weathered exterior

chipping

less water down the hallway

more life in the mid

quiet but not soundless

bound and yet boundless

to rise and meet

the same image

in the infinite reflection

where are the roots

this stone and ore

is permeable

if only one remembers the present

share the somber

and the intoxication

of my flame

oh my libation

the song you sing

dance the melody

frame the lines

and color outside

patchwork timepiece

the hell within me

melt that ore

hold on to what you're looking for

Lay in your shadow

In that dark field

Burned two lights

True to reflect

All that might

Buried in your garden

Sink your teeth in my fire

A Creative conspirator

this heavy metal pyre

Hold no expectations

Your lips feel like home

Carve a heart in my skin

Walk a mile in my soul

Raw Course grain, and silk smile

Slim good body, black and wild

Come

A time between time
A mind between mind

the love that we find
the love that we bind

out in the dark
pursue a dream

out of the lives
the truth
the seams

nothing is promised
nothing is owed

the light in the eyes
the light in the soul

play me a song
a precautionary tale

this life and the wind
these scars
and the sail

this is the language of harmony
the color of fire

the heaven beside you
the song of a choir

timeless is as timeless does
one is what one is
one was what one was

highlight the flood
run out on moonbeams

hold on oh universe
for what dreams
may be

Blush

Do you remember the sound of my voice?

When I fell down, I saw you.

Drifting between dreams and songs

Revealing the truth as true as blue

Eyes distorted by prescription reflectors,

I’m missing the time as perceptions preceptor,

Watch as I rise like mercury’s center

Heat pacifies all memories that enter

Tears made me blind to the light that I held

Time blurred the lines and my thoughts...what I felt

You were the answer to all of my needs

The push pull of wants will never take leave

I stagger, pause, I push, and change

My pace, my thoughts, my heart, my brain

This space between the words

And before the print,
Taste this thought

From a once lost prince

I was true when I fell and called your name

It made me blush but now in the same

Vein, heart, mind, body, and soul

Words can’t describe

The pain

I now know

Without you

Dancing for eternity

Dancing for eternity
Longing for the moment
Pushing the seconds and minutes out of the air
Lifting she sky upwards
Taking the weight of this life off her shoulders
Spinning losing perception
Only to find herself
Still in time
But she knows
She will meet eternity
In her subtle movements
Surpassing her parents
In this dance
Of 500 years
Her frame moves
Blurring the screen
With emotions
The painting lives
Outside the frame
The human soul is so much more
Then the material it’s locked in
Never will the body know eternity
Because that world only exists here
between time
There are two dancing here
A soul and a body
The struggle for freedom has never been so evident
One can taste eternity
One can taste mortality
The kiss of life and death
Of 500 Years
