Deep within the ways I love you
lies a valley,
where my wandering footsteps
find no boundaries.
Hands held in hands
Drift amongst the pearls
Silent in emotion
I know you are mine
You are not my world,
Am I yours?
Speechless be our hearts
Same sun, different moons.
The air we breathe
Tasting of honeysuckle
Embedded on a memory
On a lifetime of love
A colab with Neva Flores and Aidz
Paper dragons
Try to run away
Hear them
Whispering
Living
In the silver
Gather
All your dreams
Store them
In your pockets
Never let
The colours drain
Simple things
Make you smile
Simple things
Allow you to cry
Coldness
Close your eyes
Allow the shadows
Lengthen creep
Close your eyes
Time to sleep
In silence I kiss the muse
Kiss me with silent words
Swirling the space between
Drink silence silvered
The look on your face, Serenity
Words in ink upon a wrist
A meaning known to you
Lipstick black in Honesty
Keyed in lace upon your neck
Secrets scream in liquid voice
Heard lonely upon your ears
Sincerely touch a single breath
Stolen life in death
In blackened days the muse tests my faith
“If I reach up n stand on tippy toes
I can almost touch the stars”
“If I stand really still
The flutterby will land on me”
Sweet innocence and wonder
Soon will change
Impurity grows upon the stage
Silver dollar for every smile made
Amidst the scurry of darkened souls
Soon crawl inside her skin
Needles have done so before
Replaced by the lace and cigarettes
And the thousand silent smiles
Leeching lurid in the sin
Limited by the crazy
Living inside this mind
Confession of living lonely
Escape the mouths of babes
Yet nothing will escape
This life that is made
Of whiskey and broken dreams
Nights laid waste
Of days unremembered
All because
You took my innocence
The muse blesses me in the rain
I cannot feed
I cannot weep
My pleasure comes
From the tip
Of a rusty blade
A single kiss in black
I taste of the addiction sweet
Senses alert for loose souls I lick air, taste
Set sail on seas looking for a heart blessed in ruby
Tattoo’d wings drift aimlessly lifting hope beyond
Touch life as I touch my skin
A single sin blesses me
In tomorrows heartbeat I can count again
Suicide disbelievers coated on an angels wing
Inject silver nitrate into my breath and veins
Coloured in mending tearing nails from blackened eyes
I wish you where here now to kiss the sunset with me
In the pit of my stomach I fear goodbyes
Lay me to rest on the bosom of a gypsies gasp
Till I can feel again
Taste the skin from the rust
Life let it slip
A single kiss in black
In ink the muse is satiated
I cannot feed
I cannot weep
My pleasure comes
From the tip
Of a rusty blade
A single kiss in black
A purposeful flick of a damp cigarette
Ash fall scatters the inconsiderate souls
Seminally lick at the torn blisters on the soles of my feet
In the hope that one returns from grace
An indignant guise from a lifetime ago
I wear my love like a costume mirrored in shards
Several feathers remind
Less than console
The rain cannot wash the skin away
Cut with a rusty blade
Dream in like refractions until the sun goes down
Bury my soul in the palms of my hands as it begins again
Split tongue glides venus’s mound
Erotic pleasures distill the black in favour of different hue
Kiss sweet engourge this flesh
Tendrils of sin enshroud this heart torn in two
So it begins
A life less than deserved I take your life as my own
A single kiss in black
A memory leaves the muse in ink
I cannot feed
I cannot weep
My pleasure comes
From the tip
Of a rusty blade
A single kiss in black
How do you talk when the radios gone
And the blue clouds send down the rain
I drag my feet on the mud soaked road
And tell myself I find a halo strange
Drenched in souls I step ahead
Draw a wintery breath
Encased in sorrows
Massacred tears an only regret
Severed wings leave a stain marked in blood
This my life I give for you and pass on heavens bless
Colour me in life on canvas drawn in crystalline hue
Slivered in a rusty blade I draw my skin for you
Several lifetimes cease to be
A smile draws a heart in two
I cannot let you begin again
So I take your life
A single kiss in black
In the muse I suffer
Close a silent door on a life that is lived
Live this love in a groove state
Marry solitude to belonging
Selfless images caress the view
Blackness of ink settles on a new scribe
Dust softly blows sentiments of morrow
Round and round fingers entwine
Sparkle in fluid motion capture your eye
Marred in shadows cursed in blessings
Silver tongue reapers ply a trade
Exotic masquerades dance on the wing
As I rest and think on tomorrows beginnings
The muse suffers alone whilst I listen in the wind
Resting in the drift and flow of a thousand suns
Bask in the shine of a cerebral thought
Until two become one and divide by the night from day
Rest your head on my chest and breath a while
Lengthen the rust stains of life brushed on a pure white canvas
Walk between respect and trust as the demons bay in your thoughts
Deceit drips in dozens
Ambiguity colours self control
Before the storm comes
Rains will wash this skin
Stained
In kisses of vermillion ink
Walk in my dreams
Another taste of you
Tainted
Generously savor this skin
Bitter
Despised
Platted in your hair
Silken threads of gold
Glisten till yesterday comes
Silver tears congeal in the dust
Staining the earth red
Between the crevices a solitary heartbeat rests
Found only by those who bleed the same as you
Distant though my heartbeat beats sliced on treason
Uncomfortable when you gaze upon a clear day
Anxious at the premise that presents itself in these shadows
Apprehensive at the meeting when lovers cross the dimensions
Restless I begin
Restless I end
Restless I cut this skin deep
Restless I lick this rusty blade
Restless I slice this tongue in obscure patterns
Restless in the blood I bleed for you
Restless
Restless
I can chase the muse yet I can never hold her
Heal the warmth from a caressing sun as shadows pass by this window
Close heavy eyelids that contemplate life drifting on the song
Deep breath drawn then exhaled slowly for affect lest it wake the demons
Have you ever drifted on a song ?
Clouded in grays
A heartbeat solitary in the breeze
Rested in the forevermore?
To far you have wandered without the rhythm to accompany a lonely path
Footfall raises dust like the soulless leave nothing of their passing in the wind
Its a lot to look back on when I must find my soul held in the crimson palm of a lonely hand
Have you ever just rested?
Hidden by the shadows
Listened to a solitary heartbeat
Forever in this time?
This I know has woven intricate patterns on the walls in blood of me
I begin to understand the choices I have made make me who I am in masks of uneven men
Regret the decisions held in the hands of others though I have the final say
Have you ever?
Listened...
Just listened...
To the choices you made
Sadly in gray
I miss the muse as I miss my heartbeat
Frangipani scent on the shadow of a butterflies heartbeat
Sends the glisten on a bejeweled star to kiss a wind
Listen as we drift on the crystalline seas of azure memories
And breathe of supple colour in a slightly mysterious hue
Send me the gypsy silhouette of your desires
Tempted in sweet harmonies of a rain cascading in mellow driftings
Gaze into eyes that hold forever in a depth of a thousand lifetimes
And sing to me in whispers of golds silken glow
Hearts coated in ruby and silver shimmer in the mirrored light
Scattering shards lifted in kaleidoscopic imaginings
Drift
Drift
Feel
Close
Your eyes
Trust
As I hold
You
In forever
I soothe the muse, be still sweet muse
Suckle gently from womanly teat
As white fades softly into black
softly
Jewels that are faceted on far horizons
Belie the quality in Jade eyes
A simple pleasure less regret
Alluring as summers sweet breath
Come
Taste of love
Taste of lust
Sing of these sweet lips
Take the time
To savor
Search
Quest the taste
Parts on a subtle drift
I must have been walking alone
Lift in the mirrors and song
Whisper
Pictures that have no face
I wont remember
Tranquil the noise that emanates
There is no road to cast a stone
Silently
You were looking for a way out
I cannot let you walk alone
As I
Exorcise these emotions
Slice a silvered wrist
Ha this blade is rusty now
This scar
Elongated with time
Bares your name
This blood seeps from calloused wound
Does not run true
This blood that seeps from a wound within
Is not the right hue
Travelled in time
Remembered in skin
Dilated pupils capture the light
This blood runs raven black
Clouded in horizons choice
Litters seldom viewed
Partake of natures flesh
Chosen from a vines ripened treasure
This blood it colours in stains of remembrance
A simple memory
This blood recalls a varied footfall
Holds a palm out for you
Celebrate with blood red wine
Drink of the harvest blessed
Yet this blade still sings for you
it sings
it sings
it sings
Sweet Muse hold this heart
Staring into the sun
My heart still seems cold
I told you to be patient
Told you you’d be mine
Listening to a different path
Circles covered in stone
Come and feel the wind
Soothing the demons inside a dream
Lest this secret remain
We hold out breath
Hold hands
As the dragonflies sing
Could it be
As we imagined
Painted on skin
Lost in this place
A dozen souls cry black in the light
Let my breath be silent
Still your heartbeat lies cold
Stealing memories of you
I share the muse a dream
Cut the blade
Inside
A pool of tears
To hide behind
To live or die
Lick me
Savor
The taste of fear
Taste in the ecstasy
Tease the blood
Amaranth seduction
Of a pleasing
Quicken the breath
Gasp in sweet
Drink cerise air
Smooth slithered edge
Of a love
Of a lust
Hold sharp in a palm
Jade whispers
In severed dreams
Of blood
Of dust
Left to begin the muse cries tears in Jade
Tears of shadowed past
Has never seen a view
A feather in black
Whispers from the unfinished swan
Sprawl a chalk mark
Etched in haste on a sidewalk
Crooned in concrete and steel
Pierce a tongue in the quill of ink
A Jester blades your heart in Jade
Carve you I must
Your name
In seeds of indigo
As I lick the nape of your neck
The beads
The beads of sweat
Glisten in the heartlight
As I carve
Your name
While you and I dance
In the shadow of death
This gaze lingers
A moment to long
Captured by eyes of azure
Fleeting
Licked by the dragon
Absorbing the pearls
While the rasp of scales
Leaves scars on my soul
Finish me in a mask
Remnants of a deed left in haste
Carve your name in, Jade
The Jester cries at simple misgivings
Retched blade encased in rust
Carve jade I must
Leave me to die
Feathered
Unfinished swan
I tell the muse I give everything to loose
gathered as dust
lay the shadows
resting listless on the ground
less living in the morning dawn
as streetlights retreat
for their work is done
and I walk
these streets
alone
I promise
I was a good man
as I shelter from the dew
pull my worn leather coat in tight
n glance at the demons
lingering off to my right
you cannot see them
but I can
steady is the pace in footfall
as is the clink of my heels
watching the steam
rise
from my nose
chilling the nose ring
on each inhale
warmed on the ex
a mind that races on a thought of a thousand sins
shuddering at the blessing
of a dawn yet to be
as subtle hues of yesterday recede
and cower in the corners of a mind
as others see me
but pay no heed
only their fear of dying
crosses a wind
and settles on a true love
criss cross
I drift in the lemon scent
seethe
as the demon makes me uncomfortable
search for the tomorrow
search for the heart
I left long ago
gathered in my own
thought
gathered in my own
haunted dreams
I see naught of the chance
I need to survive
all that is
all that was
is needed to be
forgiven
and I walk
alone
exposing ashes
in my wake
from the wreckage
of nothing worth fighting for
and walk
as I do
forever on a journey
and wishing for a warmer day
If only the muse could see me cry in the rain
drink me a cyanide moonbeam
while I sit here in the rain
delicate as a heartbeat
i watch you
and listen
and share the last of the light
i cry
a lonely journey
here
in the rain
i cry a lonely journey
of silver embrace
of pallid remembrance
of watching from a distance
and stripping the dreams of this madman
dampened in the rain that matters little
to the heart that feels
less of the loneliness
of one that has come into a life
as I watch
listen
and cry
but no-one sees
forever
in this
that I write
for you
How can I please you muse, with a tear?
You know its been said
I can hear a thousand angels cry
As I blink looking into the evening sun
Say the words I never say
Kiss me like its the end of days
Bleed me several tears of silver dew
Slowly
Let it warm my face
Caress my cheek on its forever travel
Drip in sincere crystalline focus
While a blemish last an hour
And a cry last a million years
Turn and allow the chatter bring
Sweet smiles to the face of the crowds
Drink
Drink it in
As the brand new day begins
With a cherished heart I gift the muse
Can I find
My peace of mind
Laying with the dead
If I try
Appease the soul
Listening in the whispers
Drinking words
As they fall upon a stage
In slivers of silver
And colours of the sun
Dreams blend mischievously
Into one
I listened
I wept
I drowned in the solitude
Cut my skin to pieces again
I drink the rust
Let it slip
Encrusted in fragments of tone
Cuts deep
Scaring my skin
Let it bleed
Let me bleed free
My sin stains the earth
Covered in butterflies
I breathe again
Should I ask the muse, why?
I draw long on that first cigarette of the day
The one that gets you heady
An excuse that its needed as you spin on the top
Just an observation on the presence of meaning
I don’t need to run with the pack today
Much needed sip of coffee draws the caffeine in
Fires several deadened synapsis
Killed in the last line of war
Or that whiskey bottle that lies on the floor
Several breathes are taken to expel the taste of licking the floor
Its cold down here surrounded by walls
Sitting in the corner of this dark grey room
Hey
Remember those first cold days
Living in memories breeze
Scratch a barely stubbled chin
Dismissed as an afterthought in the blink of an eye
Whats the promise when Im going to die
Hell we all are
Scattering several cockroaches matched by ash drops
Leaving me in my misery
Stains on the ceiling traced out in a sickly tapestry of a world less believing
Hold me and come close lest I freeze
Stick my fingers in my ears and see if I can fly
But these feelings pass on a whim
Fucked if I will let you in
Probably just burn as the others have
The ones that Ive let in close
Seriously I pause as I light another smoke
Taste the heat on the back of my throat
Who was the first that felt slipped in my sin
Did I ever know love like this
Married to the sky dusted in shades of rudimentary black
Passed in a time forgot staring inanely at the walls
Hoping it would wipe a remembrance like the spider as it crawls up the wall
In the hope of a quick easy feed
What the fuck is this stench that passes these nostrils
Drenched in my own fetid refuse
For I fail to live everyday
I have forgotten
How to wake in the morn
I have forgotten how to talk to another man
My lips stitched shut to keep the pressure within
But fuck it all Im dead within
I need to brew me up some more caffeine
I let the memory heal and the muse watches on
I wear your masked melancholia
Like a second veiled skin
Sensual
Through the souls of serene eyes
Let them weep
Bleed
I see tomorrow
Though this day was the last
To hear the dying angels cry
A thousand broken sunsets
Silent screams of mercy
Shine like crimson in the sun
Cryptic feathers hide the dreams
While Im awake
A look sideways
Tells the truth
Of a heart filled with dreams of a youth
And eyes
Filled with tears
Tell the bitter tales
Of a life unlived
And unloved
Hand her back the innocence
Silken sweetened twilight
Of a shattered emptiness
Of a passing to the place
She wished to leave
Fluttered from the leaf in the wind
Marked in forever
Sacred ink
Drifted in illusions
We speak with the same voice
But one does not listen
To the sun
As it speaks in the halo of the stars
Silver reflections hide the shadow of the dark
Running
Can leave us wanting
For the yesterday
When words were left unsaid
If I lived your life of make believe
Choices would fall on golden horizons
I have lived your life
As you have lived mine
Shattering the mirrors
In shards of distrust
Leaving the promises
On the lips of the queen
Quilted in treasures of dust
Intertwine our waists
Let it permeate in who we are
As I
We
Drink from a melody
Writing softly spoken imaginings
In the sky
Never to allow one wrong word
To let it all come crashing down
Enjoy the one last time
For it cannot last forever
Savour this time
In the sun
