my thoughts run wild
but all i get is a headache
no leeway, no progress.
i thought i knew myself
but these miss you nights
leave me confused.
i wrote this song
for the one who knows.

the mirage i see is real
always before me,
within my grasp
but just out of reach.
you keep running from the obvious
wanting what impression has pressed
upon the memory created by association, . . .

time flies
and night draws near.
pillows become sodden
and hearts become heavy.
oh, the things we do for love.
thoughts fly
to faraway places, loved ones.
memories come pouring forth
like the . . .

it's been three days
since you left.
but it feels like eternity.
and they told me
you weren't coming back
but i know you wouldn't lie to me.

i came into your room
to kiss you on the cheek
but you scrambled to kiss my lips.
i smelled him onyour lips
the stranger.
i can see the empty bottle
and two glasses, see your
eyes darting as you try . . .

i know how it feels
to be the other guy.
second place, that is.
i can live with that.

what i cant take is
knowing the guy ahead
of me.

last night i hurt myself to find out if i coud still feel.
a red stream splashed to the ground and i wrote your name, beloved. i wrote it in red.
last night i sang a slow song there was only one word . . .

all my life,
i've written
words on the
pages of my
heart, on the
barks of pines,
on walls and
on beach sands.
words for you,
practice, you
might say.
all my life,
i've waited
for the chance

i've never felt so lost
within the confines of certainty.
i've never had to scream in pain
in the places where i find pleasure.
i found the girl of my dreams and she's
the hydra of my . . .

stay just a little while,
and i'll tell you words
i tell no one else.
stay just a little while
and i'll make you smile
in a way you've never smiled
before.
stay just a little while,
and i'll . . .

dawn broke
and my heart broke with it.
suddenly i become empty
and my soul aches when
i call your name.
the sunrise feels your absence
and the sofa mourns.
dawn is beautiful like a sad virgin, . . .

a stretching void,
the sun across the brook.
i remember our tall shadows
because we looked like giants,
seperated by fifty metres of sand,
united by our sahdows.
i crushed my longing
there . . .

i bought you flowers,
red flowers.
for the first time, i
made you cry.
you cried words
you had locked away
for sixteen days,
things you should've said
a long time ago.
your words bled . . .

love was cold tonight
and the fire in your eyes
was just a dim flicker
i love you, but i don't
love your personal demons
and you don't want to let
them go.
your blue eyes . . .

it was a bleak, stark land
with two hundred flies
and no buzzards.
skeletons of dying spirits
provided bones for our
makeshift shelter.
i saw the skeleton of
the love we once had,
dying . . .

I.
me.
a brook.
six hours and
a setting sun.
you didn't come.

i hear voices,
i see air faces.
whether they are real
or a figment of my imagination,
i know not.
but when i look down . . .

we talked for a while,
the conversation going
nowhere for a while,
just the soft words
that materialize when
two people trade words.

I dreamt the world
Into existence, last night
And you were there with me,
Two people lost in
Thoughts we couldn't write.
That's what we were.
And you could have covered me
With your . . .

PART I
a parcel came in the mail
first page:
these were my dreams
when i had a life.
pages spilled memories,
colour and emotions.

familiar handwriting.
