on a parapet

his smile
is eroded
and tarnished
broken

as his spirit
has fallen
so has his
faith.

through the ghosts

i splinter,
oozing chaotic,
gently spreading,
a morose,
meaningless message.
syntax errors,
pointless letters,

that my mind forgot.

cower coldly,
and wait for this to end.

i ran
i ran all the way to you,
the phone was swinging gently,
as my shadow left the doorway.
i ran
i ran under a star filled sky,
no shoes covered my feet,
my heart falling steeply.
i ran
i ran because you said you couldn't go on,
my fist invaded your locked door,
a cry bursting from my panting lungs.

i ran against the fear,
fear that you were running,
running from your beautiful life.

breath rancid,
just want to lay my head down,
eyes are slits,
in my movement,
just need to reach,
my headstone soft,
sighing off to sleep,
you take my socks off,
because you love me.

the moon silently sobs
it's light cascades over my tears

on their fleshy ledge

Delicate human being,
Soft and intricate,
A fragile little world have you,
Held together with popsicle stick memories,
And a glue made of tears.
When will you learn little being,
That your world is crumbling?
The lies you've spun are collapsing,
Your plastic "Welcome" mat is worn,
And you refuse to admire in mirrors.
You are lost little human being,
A sea of loneliness you sail,
Rivers of happiness is what you seek,
But you are no explorer,
No compass or map with guide this course.
Alas, the sun will call you home,
Her smile will warm your soul,
And you will find solace in her embrace.
For you are little, human being,

an afternoon with leney
she caresses my face tenderly,
in an embrace of solace i am held,
stretched along the long couch,
rain as background noise to the mood,
i stare silently as she watches t.v.
in the flickering darkness,
the light dances in her beauty,
a blue angel above me,
keeping me safe from fear,
and saving me from my self destruction.
she turns to face me,
a slow smile emerges,
my heart sighs in contentment,
for i have everything in her,
but that is just a memory.
of an afternoon with leney...
her spirit was the first thing i noticed,
she is a prescence,
a warm light that makes a room feel cozy,
like home.
next was her smile,
some what mischevious but dipped in cleverness,
dazzling my heart with simple joy,
like a child seeing a rainbow for the first time.
her strength inspires me,
courage like a phoenix,
refusing to be extinguished,
only to rise stronger than before.
acceptance is what makes us friends,
she doesn't judge my appearance,
or my clumsy shyness,
she only sees me and cares.
and for that i feel lucky...
i am broken,
you can not fix me,
but you can love me anyway.
pick up my shattered limbs,
lay my bruises and cuts down,
whisper me my salvation,
in your arms,
i feel safe.
i can not survive another fall,

Crest.
Epitome of all life.
Tou stand spear-handed by my side,
Embodying the utmost wisdom;
Which, being just below reality,
Is slightly blinder than any one stone.
As others inject toxic verse
To turn their hearts into battle machines,
You promise to never preach,
But only allow me to learn.

Personal Quote: when you find something you love, hold on tight with both hands. I keep slipping.
i feel like i am building up to some gigantic let down... something huge, something that will crush me under the weight of it's revelation... like the meaning of life is to keep buying freeze dried coffee when everyone would prefer it fresh... i don't know... it's intangible, but yet it haunts me every fucking day of my life... i wake up, go to work, come home... repeat, reuse, recycle... i just thought things would amount to more... i always said i wouldnt become part of the automaton machine that i see every day... the people you see on the bus the have that blank stare... as if they don't see the sun anymore... or take comfort in
nice guys finish last... words that are so true to life they are often ignored because if they were ever really acknowledged, few "nice guys" would exist... i don't know if its the lack of inspiration in the human soul... the bombardment of society to focus strictly on material/physical importance... or the fact that people just don't give a flying fuck... mob mentality to trample those in front of you to get to the exit before the place burns down... everywhere i look some sort of sadness is present... people on the street, resembling a deer caught in the headlights staring off into some void that only they can see... terribly afraid
meh... why bother...
