~

now all that remains
amidst the frost and the dew
a sun beam in an indian summer
and memories of you
sometimes; our ability to not forget
is the most tragic kind of pain
and the more that things change;
the more they stay the same

waves

~

waves crashing amidst foam
the sky lost behind cloud
an ocean swelled in my lungs
when her voice spoke aloud
those waters pulled me under
and as i drowned, i gazed above
her magic, unlike any other;
an unspeakable kind of love

atoms

~

the hardest part;
is knowing what
we could have become.
how the planets would
bend between us,
how the stars would weep;
in awe of our love.
how the heavens would burn
whenever we’re apart
our atoms belong together.
they have traveled
across an ocean of time
from one life, to the next
bound to each other
forever searching,
forever entwined.
that’s the hardest part;
admitting, i was made,
to love only you.

the bridge of time.

~

in our words
we are made immortal
across an ocean of stars
through the window of time
the past is but a bridge
we cross in our mind
each night i walk silent
through darkness i tread
between this world
and another;
too find you in my head
~

on golden shores, where the ocean swallows the sun, wait for me my love; for i will return.

be careful what you wish for

~

be careful what you wish for
in the darkest corners of your mind
when no one else is around
the desperation of your prayers
in the stillness of the night
be careful what you wish for
for the devil listens too
and he doesn’t always come
with a pitchfork and horns
sometimes, he comes dressed
as everything you ever wanted

moonlight sonata

~

every single night
she meets me in secret
under a darkened sky
she gazes down
far from the gaze
of the waking world
we talk about how lonely we are;
me, among seven billion people
and her, amongst an infinite universe

time keeper

~

with you,
i found comfort
in the silence
clocks no longer
counting minutes
every moment timeless
