I met a man in the mountains but he didn't meet me.
He sang a song and faded away.
Shining instrument and shining voice, he strummed and spoke the tears from my eyes.
He whispered of love and longing and the hope of return.
Then cried of bayonets and cigarettes and the endless battle.
A smattering of words clung to me like stars for me to gaze.
And the ones I can't recall are too far above for me to see.
But every so often,
Just once in a while,
I can still hear him singing,
Darling,
Don't you cry for me.
For when this war is over,
I swear that I'll buy you a diamond ring.
This Thought Of Mine
Possibility.
One word, a fragment of a thought, that manages to carry hope.
And I guess the problem with it is that it, even with its inherent fragility, bears a lot of responsibility at the same time.
I think that's the beauty of it, too.
Whatever you want in this world, you can have it.
See? That's the hope, the optimism.
But the catch is the can.
Because you have to have the will to execute.
Realize it - that's the responsibility, the charge.
It's a balance.
Between your passion, the driving force, and chance you won't be strong enough.
Possibility's a fight.
But I like to think of it as the good fight, this thought of mine.
The only one worth joining in.
Prose and Friends and Alcohol
we can build a fire,
and listen to songs
about all the things
we almost had,
but still miss,
then we'll make a toast
to the words
floating just out of reach,
whiskey on ice
and the bitter taste
of reality,
and we'll smile when we see
that none of us are
drinking alone tonight,
that none of us are.
alone.
all missing the same things
in different ways,
finding solace in the laughter,
maybe a few tears before dawn,
and words that taste like blood
as they leave us,
that look like love,
another round for all of us
still pretending to be whole,
still drinking slow enough
to greet the sun.
Soulmates
Knitted together
by light of the moon,
my eyes strained
to reach your soul,
two magnetized spirits
drawn together
forming one mind
in deep purple shadows.
I laid my hands
upon your heart
to grasp the light,
ignited in flames,
overcome by awareness
we had been soulmates
since beginning of time.
Steaminess was drawn
from our core as
love unfolded like
thawing ice pressed
between pages of books.
Scent of you clung
to my skin as
we pulsed in the joy
of blue sapphire night.
Hearts tied together
in cottony cloud,
stitched in sync
with euphony of love,
destined to meet.
This World
Nobody cares that
We all bleed the same,
Too worried about labels to know each other's names
Always focused on creating more pain, looking
At all times for somebody to blame,
Morals degrade, no one cares to maintain
So much easier just to replace and obtain,
This world we live in just isn't humane!
How selfish are we to profit and gain
From a country divided from myriad claims,
Only a matter of time before we
Go up in flames,
Broken links that were once a great chain,
Weak because we couldn't stand up
To the strain,
In the end it won't matter exactly who gets framed,
Unrecognizable and covered in shame,
People mundane, evolved to profane,
Each and every one of us certifiably insane,
Crawling amongst the ruin of lives we've maimed,
In this world the only thing that could
Ever remain
Is the very thing that runs through our veins
All it will take is the courage to refrain,
Doesn't anybody realize that this
Isn't a game?
Damaged.
Nothing comes close
to the skin she wears.
hatred knitted into
fibers of her bones.
stolen soul, and hidden,
deep, within evil dreams ...
no yesterday's lift her head.
blood washing down drains,
with secrets to keep,
and a gullet full of whiskey to 'mend' ...
How about,
Fuck you.
yes, hatred is real.
Hatred is felt.
Hatred is lived.
Hatred is betrayal.
Hatred kills and
sends unwanted souls to hell.
pain is only but a scar,
it scabs, it heals
and you move the fuck on.
Hatred is forever ...
It's what you hog tie
as you beat it
like a piñata,
laughing in the face of weakness,
squealing in fear,
giving a half assed attempt for forgiveness.
but the damage has already been done ...
