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

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

and two glasses, see your
eyes darting as you try . . . more

the mirage i see is real
always before me,
within my grasp

nights of light and restraint
became wild and free.
a product of the hunger for meaning,
a creation of the attraction
to flashes of light at night.
but it wasnt the same no more.

i thought i was smiling
but i couldn't feel it
so i went into the

so i went into . . . more

fears.
the tremor that starts at the back of the spine.
i know the devil

i crossed seven hearts
and a wilderness of
ugly ducklings to find you
and all i found was
a shadow in my light.

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.

the hydra of my . . . more

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

and i'll . . . more

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.

i’m going to forget tonight
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.

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 . . . more

we talked for a while,
the conversation going
nowhere for a while,
just the soft words
that materialize when
two people trade words.
i don't know what you
watched for, searched for . . . more

i waited with outstretched
arms from accross the street,
payiently counting the last

waited all these years for you.

voices fill up the
empty spaces inside,
echoing through me
in their relentless
pursuit of each other.

and elevated emptiness to

i stand on the
threshold of a sacrifice
battling my demons,
praying for peace for
the multitude and me.

just like mine,
all of us victims . . . more
