I've taken the leap
I've tackled the climb
I've asked you the question
do you want to stay by my side?

Last night,
 meant to
loosen
the bulb
I wrapped
my hands
in woven
cloth, and
coaxed the
moon down
instead
It creaked,
blushed,
and fainted
slipped into
my palm,
like a lover.

Lost amoung love's haze
There is a price I must pay
love left me astray
Love lost... truly.. heartake hearts... I want others... not to be trapped behind these closed doors.... praying to and listing to music to soothe my soul... put this flame to rest.. also a off branch of my first poem "love lost"
In my life,
I've been to places,
unbeknown to me;
often the last time,
then they filled with
new, (and?) foreign faces,
by the tactless
yet unforgiving time

Then all I had,
was the remembrance,
and the longing
for faint
- but somewhat-
aching memories
now floating below
the infinite horizon of time.
I found my sanctuary
In the bottomless, raging sea.
I sank as I grew weary —
Reached its bottom with my bare feet.

Free of motion,
Evading commotion,
Ceasing devotion,
Dreading demotion.

This is a resignation;
I serenely grow my gills —
Neither weakness nor damnation,
Just a soul worn out from flotation.
