If in your skin could I
climb into and have a word
An honest word
about what really matters
I would ask you...
                                                Does it hurt to love?
                                                And is it enough?
                                                Does it tear you apart
                                                knowing that I'm on the outside
                                                and you are on the inside
                                                and until we die
                                                we can't be as one?
Does it hurt to love?
to feel my lips so close
to collapse under my gaze
and know that you cannot
taste what I taste
or be more than your own reflection
of what I can see?
                                               Does it hurt to love?
                                               when you hold my hand
                                               and know that unless
                                               we both die right now
                                               we will one day
                                               Have to let go?
If so, then welcome home.

Lets start again,
follow me and close your eyes
......

Lets start to
fall down
towards that misleading sign of scent
that smell of the translucent
you feel as if you should already know
Someone must have already told me
And I forgot.
And now I'm too afraid to ask
which is the right way
so I guess, and I don't use my eyes
they cry too much
and make everything seem important
when really its simple
its so simple that its insurmountable.

like choosing to breathe
like choosing to love
like choosing to live*

none of the three
are actually choices at all
but a surrender
A surrendering towards what she knows
that smiles
And she kindly waits
in the wings
her name often haunts people
like a bad repeating dream
yet it also holds their freedom
their kissess and their song
she is the liberator
the crusher
the mother
.
The Truth.

The wavering mystical man decided to carry his bag to the place he knew so well
                                           his chair that sits like an indivisable, inseparable part of his living room
that is the centre of his universe and the warm of his comforts
                                            he decided most days to relish in his most cozy of cushions
but today was a special day, he had used his soft scarf and his well worn hat
                                it was the day for the mink blanket oh yes. Next to the fire that lights his happy face.
In his heart, chocolate melts, in his eyes, champagne is spilt.
                                the book shelves flicker with a giggle in their pages
the stove top quietly whistles, twisting with the most delightful smells
                                      The rain outside, drumming to his hum, his feet kicking and tapping his thumb
its all okay, alone and happy to be, the chair, the man, his blanket and his tea.

Taste this sugar that i've melted onto your eyes
let me peel away and smoulder past my disguise

lets drop all our luggage and shoes at the door
we don't need our baggage or to run any more

The bed of possibility lays forever warm and sweet
the blankets, but a doorway, the pillow, the street

lets walk along the banks of our imagination sea
discussing hypothetical should would could be's

then turn them around and laugh in the moment's charm
none of it matters, thread your arm through my arm

we can stroll together, in this timeless shore
Fill my bones with your horizon and let me explore
all that makes you smile,
in this moment's core.

Kisses inside my head
bloom when you speak
even the simplest of words
that resound like
waves crashing
against an angry cave.

I trip over my guilt
and crawl over my conscience
while dragging my feet
through the mud of judgement
of all the eyes
that are shadowed with frowns.

You stand facing the sun
shaking your head in dismay
with a smile lifting your lips
followed by a silence
a breeze of invisible words
that penetrate me.

The captivation is insane
logic dug deep into the pockets
of denial and desire
and all that remains
is the gravity.

Argh! If it wasn't for the eyes
those eyes that see into my soul
and bore the deepest hole
down through all the lies.

I know its not it, I know its the end
I know its at the point we can't pretend
we dont know how, we cant see the way
our fingers pointing towards other horizons
and we hope to get to the same place

I'm going to miss you so much,
I'm going to miss your warm touch,
I'm going to miss your chest and the nook in your neck
i'm going to miss the smell of your sweat

I know it can't be, I know its not me
so many things that are clear to see
God the gut certainly knows how to turn
twisting the love into a burn.

The love that burnt brightly out
now is burning all the way in
I don't want to wash you off my skin
but keeping you to myself
when I knew I couldn't light your face
Was like pulling feathers off your wings
to keep you in the same place.

Whisper goodbye my love,
                               for the words will hurt too much to say.
I know we have had a world together
         seen the globe together
                              and watched each other grow like doves.
Beautiful outstretched wings,
                               ready to take to the sky.
But my darling, our embrace
                               no longer fills my eyes with life.
I long to long for you,
                               and close my eyes so tight,
but the truth has looked our way
                            she smiles a sad smile full of tears
Everything inside me yearns to change
                         to feel what I could for another, for you
            
     but its the stars baby,
              you don't see them and I do.
                         We will never see life through the same view.
