Every now and then .
In a state zen .....
Take an I.v.
Retro-fit it with a pen.
With dark stark contrast
The crimson splash upon the white...like a beautiful Japanese mural...
I shudder as each word pours from my heart ...

Desperately I try convey my epic love for her........

She doesn't care ........
All my words are in vain ....

Look me in three
Eyes
Have you ever seen this hue?
Some would say it's like a vast
Ocean of evening sky blue
Can you spell ....... Cast
Or define lure
See  my intentions
Are the words obscure ?
How about lines
Are they beginning to blur
Relax add an e and an m
Pretend to read them in twister
Swirl your stare
Bed of tiger lilies to lie on oh my
There's no place like you're imagination to roam
You're will is still sort of or
Well.........
Part of you're own
Mama dont take my codachrome
If you forget me you will turn to stone
Sorry I just cast a spell on you
Forget me knot ?forgive me not!
Never forget me because it's me
And its my heart you own!

Restless dreams
Lazer beams
5 five Am
Swat teams ..... ....
trying to persuade Me.......
Saying.  ........you need to let us in........

I disagree............
"Can you come back later? ........"
Wellllllll ...I di

Hissing the the front window.  
The crescendo of broken glass
Quick silent pause ........
Brilliant flash.    
The answer came .........
Percussion grenade
Snot ,smoke ,...........
And the ringing..........
The ringing ..........
The ringing..................
Restless dreams ...... ..
Same anxiety ,same fear ..........
Terror rains can't breath.......
Tears and chest pains .......
..without fail
Every time my phone rings...

It's an invitation not an obligation.


I try to convince myself ........
Train my brain ..............
All In vain ...........
It  rings .
I answer .
I loose .
They're gain

Sunset coral and pastel peach......
Reach for the stars ......
I touch you......
Invisible .....yet you see me...
Look right into me ..
Play with your hair......
Smile.......
Your eyes are magic......
You brought me broken
Unwanted to king ......
Unlocked these chains
Forever you will remain
The most desirable
I will protect your honor
Till my dieing day
Frog prince with goldentounge still waiting....

When you are wrong ,
You are convinced by yourself.
When you know you are right..  .
Might be right now......
Unfortunately may not be long.. ..
When will we really know .   .
All the lies upon lies
We've been living on.... .
It's one thing to hear an untruth
Then pass it along..
It's another thing to embellish as we do .....
The worst human  kind can do  
Is to know yet fabricate and teach
To escape blame ,for personal gain....
Or to crush hope because you have  none
Done
Dumb.....

Sad song looms....
Gray consumes blue hues..........
Horizontally I lean into....
A burgeoning
Bellicose  wind .

Solo .........
I go.....my pace .....
Slowed ...
I grunt...lowering .....
Cumulus nimbus .......
Devours grey
Leaving blackness as it grows...

I can taste the ionization
Eyes squint   ....icy ...
I can't see...stinging......
Pelted .......  ..
By insecurity and loose debris.......
Bereft of dreams    ....
Suddenly faced with......
Being over half way "there"
Left without option .....
Turn back .......I die.......
I..............
Knowing ...........
To continue..............
Risking the same.....  
I know the way I came.....
I'm not going out that way......
So.........
I push
Expanding boundaries
On my epic campaign.....
I'm so low .......
Following instinct ......
Into the un known ....  
Only ......
I.......
dont know where I'm going .....
I guess I'll know when I get there.......
If I do .........
I'll let you know
...
If I don't
...
You won't.......
.....

Know........


No one really did ......

Know............
  

Me .....




Carry on...




Cause and effect
...super cells...
metaphors
consequences for ....
Existing in consequences
From the things I do.
Both with intent and
Unconsciously....


Sunny days never made great sailors

I ll make it through......
Each storm strengthen me....
Epitome of the fool.....
Leaving the shallow end ....
Following my heart into the gloaming. ...
I....... Can't
Swim......

Treading waters
Into
Slow   ..
A slow depression from deep within overtaking me.
Pushing down
Try........
It's too .......much.....
Such a seductive gloom
A lachrymose love
Always close to me....
Knows what haunts me

Ears crackle
Tortured quivering smile
Screaming silently
Wells fill blur my eyes
Asking no one yet everyone why


Diaphragm heaves
The blanket of doom


Lightning blooms strobe
Early nights sky........

Echoing visions
Diluted by time
Imbued to  a degree...
Solemnly I sojourn
Solo I half earned
This sinking  state of
Saturation
Drowning......
I learn to swim ......
As I rise to the surface ....
Tunnel vision sets in .....
And the question

Should I.......
