Blushing his mind was suddenly buzzing
With a rushing kind of thrumming thundering
His hands fumbling with wistful whispering
As he stilled listening
Quivering in attention to her symphony
Moving so fluidly it seemed
She was perfect symmetry
If symmetry could sing infinitely
While still breathing
Red lips and a tongue ring
Swayed hips like an epiphany
He used ink viciously
As he tried to capture her being
In pages of calligraphy
Ultimately ending in simplicity
And writing only two words worth keeping
Lovely,
And Epitome
But even that seemed to be a study in futility
Close, but still just a facsimile
Now even attempting such a thing
Was like extemporizing a soliloquy
When she’s not in the scene
It was a crushing ruptured something
Lusting up toward her but just...brushing
See because,
Crystallized starlight and sunbeams
Are the color of her eyes for one thing
Her makeup was made of the constant fluttering
Of a thousand different shades of butterfly's wings
Her body wrapped with swirling images of things
Half shown only teasingly
Blues and pinks perfectly painted in permanent ink
She wore a meticulous modesty like an alluring anthology
Audibly dancing the lines of an infatuation with her body
Calmly, and without a hint of apology
Never did they speak
But he thought of her with a quietly
Quickening need
Like a disease
Degenerative and growing constantly
Her motion kept within a distant proximity
Close, but still just out of reach
Orbiting fitfully like a belief caught by gravity
Even the fleeting demons seemed to freeze
The needle points of their teeth not quite so pressing
Folded and creased with every word that she’d speak
See,
He wanted God but was stuck in the ministry
She was the girl of his dreams
Literally
An Ideal over which he found himself continuously
Waxing rhapsodically
Lasting and wrapped softly
In prose and in poetry
She was the standard for every real meeting
The source of a lonely rising anxiety
Only interspersed by other versions sporadically
By terse blurred physical excursions endured silently
Violent and briefly blinding
Lost like a leaf in lightning
She was a masterpiece paraded in pageantry
Absently grasping at the fantasy of his own imagining
She was a fiction with...
Cherry flavored lips and a tongue ring
Swayed hips like an epiphany
And eyes the color of crystallized starlight
And sunbeams
Too caught up in the dream
To realize he was sleeping
He fell in love with a faery
He just couldn’t see her wings
I am the shadow, fading into silence
I am the words you shoved in a box
I am blood, sex & violence
behind the symbol of peace
I am light enraptured unto the void
from a thousand years of cosmic darkness
chasing the souls of stars
I am the mirror you wish to avoid
with the tears that coiled down the drain
& the years wasted on nothing--
but what you thought was yourself...
.............
Love is a delusion,
And yet it is everything we see,
This delusion lives in you,
And it also lives in me,
For no one has proven
That it even exists,
This makes people angry sometimes,
And can cause to make them really pissed,
But 'delusion' is just a word,
To explain a point in time,
A marker, a place in space,
Like an unspoken word of the poet's rhyme,
Above is below us,
And this has been found to be proven,
So there is no sense in getting angry over it,
To be angry over it isn't even behooven,
It is wasted energy to be angry about nothing,
Especially a delusion, that has never been proven!!
;-)
Live your life trying to be love.
Be the change you want to see in your life,
and the world around you.
You will find it becomes contagious.
:-)
.....................
I am gravely sorry
That you hold pain within you.
We share love,
Whether you choose to accept it
In your reality or not.
I am empathetic towards your pain.
I am not a psychiatrist.
I am not a psychologist.
I do not know how to control your delusions,
Only you know how to do that.
I do know this.
When you can clearly see,
That keeping your mouth shut,
Instead of opening it,
Is hurting far more people
Than it is helping...
...it's time to open your damn mouth.

Have you been through barren wind lashing landscape to a place where the only pleasure is pain?
Have you swept through grand illusions of mountainous peaks, romantically doused in valleys?
Have you throbbed and whetted painfully soaking in an untouchable Mire of frenzy in enstasy?
Have you felt numbness broken by searing thoughts of pain-bloated vomittous purges bringing ecstasy?
Have you been so relieved, so rejoiced by knowing you still stir to feel wrapped in delusions so real?
Have you lost the last filtered longing rays of the loving light alone, wondering why so stark?
Have You toiled and panicked and sweated for hours when those illusions left you crying in the dark?
Have you taken to all the corners of your mind digging for the recesses of the lost corners of your light?
Have you schemed and plotted and travelled to chase a glint of memory through the endless night?
Have you burned your eyes in desperation sending beams of longing soul light through those windows?
Have you traced the walls of imagined heights scraping your fingers to the bone, looking for a crack?
Have you forgotten your God, reinvented your religion and realigned the center of your universe in hope?
Have you burned your heart so brightly as a sacrifice in hopeless knowing it will be a lost beacon to the lost?
Then leave me, you can never know my plight.
An alternate is *then fuck off- I feel this is more protective but not in keeping with the rest of the work I guess I just have to choose wich one really is the true intent... A difficult conundrum.
Pale, distant,
Memories, all covered with frost.
They haunt the quiet moments,
And slowly creep from the shadows.
Hours spent
Reliving
A past that
Did not exist.
What will become
Of a life-
Spent dreaming
Of a death?
