maybe shred your words,
over and over until there's
nothing left, or I might just
let the night blow them away
with my headache.
my steel defenses
crumbled . . .

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 . . .

God is a composer
And i'm his best symphony,
Built with harmony of soul and spirit
Built in harmony with him.
The melody of his genius
Flows in my heartstrings.
I'm a marvel.
God is a painter . . .

voices fill up the
empty spaces inside,
echoing through me
in their relentless
pursuit of each other.
but i cant be crazy,
because i'll find no
solace in the single
tear that drops, along
to the beat . . .

i came into your room
to kiss you on the cheek
but you scrambled to kiss my lips.
i smelled him onyour lips

life was a river
good fish, bad fish.
i swam with purpose,
sometimes riding the
poor man’s horse,
sometimes hitting reality hard.
they say you learn
from your mistakes.
so i rewound time,

the world lost it's mind
and we had us a picnic of tears.
you and i, alone,
crouching in a corner, dark
sipping cocktails made with tears.
i cracked up and you broke
into a thousand pieces of . . .

everyday
you just pine away
in grief unspoken, unshown
unrevealed, in blind stoicism.
i can see the tears of your silence.
your sadness generates more sadness
and your painting hangs on the empty . . .

i wore a face
that wasn't mine,
behind this mask of perfection.
but it only takes one truth
to reveal a million truths.
it was my best face
but it was a borrowed face.
you lent me your face
but i . . .

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,

for the chance
to . . .

i've never felt so lost
within the confines of certainty.
i've never had to scream in pain

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.

arms from accross the street,
payiently counting the last

i should've known
there'd be times like this,

across like a
whisper in the wind.
i should've taken my
time to listen to the
whisper . . .

i see colors, monochrome colors when you call my name.
three hours, and you looked at me, and didn't say a word, but silence is not empty.
silence speaks in colors.
so we spoke . . .

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

dawn broke
and my heart broke with it.
suddenly i become empty
and my soul aches when

and the sofa mourns.

Part I [Sanguine]

with an ethereal

out of fantasy
and elevated emptiness to

and tell me what my
nightmare means.
life is haunted . . .
