Care

If I care, I'll go mad

If I care, I'll fall apart

I didn't think I'd make it this far

So, if I care, I'll lose myself

and if I care,

If I care.

Yearning for the stars,

We quench our throats

With poems and proses,

Thorns to roses, inhaling

Dandelions, exhaling wishful

Thoughts and memories,

Escaping the darkest sky, we

Yearn for stars at morn light.................

Dreams

I hate dreams that are so vivid, so lucid, so real that the feelings drift into consciousness. That when you wake up you can't remember them, you can feel it's echos but you can't see it anymore even as you grasp at the strings of sleep to go back.

So it sits at the edge of your mind too far away to bring it back, to go back home but too close to let it go.

Apollo's love

Love, light, lost as a laurel tree

begged and pleaded to be free

take one step and down we go

into the hole of being loved by Apollo

Pretty

Pretty eyes

Pretty smile

Pretty girl and boy and child.

Pretty person

Pretty place

Pretty only in the face

Pretty soul

Pretty heart

Pretty oh so very hurt.

One

One step and that step echoes

in light,

One cry and that cry echoes

through the night,

One wish that goes unheard

as you turn your head

and shut your heart.

One step, one cry, one wish

and it's all for naught.

I have about as much patience for people

as I do for love,

very little and

not a lot.

These hallowed halls do hold you close,

can you not be free

as a ghost.

You are an amalgamation of contradictions,

and I don't know if I ought to love you

or hate you.

Dance

You stand svelte and tall,

I shiver under your glance

and deign to dance with you

but wouldn't give me the chance.

Echo

I wish my heartache

would go away,

though I know it will not.

It may fade, or echo

become a memory,

but there will

come the days.

When I feel it more

than usual

mayhap tears burn

in my eyes.

Perhaps I just pause

in my day.

But I will feel it

more than a memory.

Wish

I once wished upon a summers sun

and a nights full moon,

that someone would come to care for me,

my wish did not come true.

Seeds of Dark

Beauty often hides,

the worst deeds

you can imagine.

Because beauty rarely

bleeds, the darkness

you don't see.

They sow the seeds

of darkness

of that I have

no doubt.

Get away

so you don't bleed,

doubt that they will,

let you out.

How I Used to Love You?

I wonder if you

remember me and

how I used to

love you?

The love you used

to feel for me

I have long

wondered if it

was true.

You always did have

eyes for others

words for them too,

I have long wondered

if you loved me

the way I loved you?

Sweet Embrace

When I'm right,

and you're all

begging on your knees,

pleading for death.

I shall stand above you

and give you leave.

Though without a doubt

you do not deserve,

to fall into

deaths sweet embrace.

I am inclined to agree

that your filth

should no longer

tarnish the earth.
