Her eyes are always rolling. Her heart is all but broken. Because the last one she let hold it Let it drop like wilting roses. Now their silhouette’s imposed Upon the fireplace mantle, tipping over. And that was all she wanted, But now, every night she’s haunted By their bittersweet aroma.

To answer the Sun, God created the Moon, But forgot about me, when He made you. Didn’t He know that I would search every corner of Hell, and the peaks of the Earth? That nothing could stop me from doing the work that your beautiful face, your embrace is worth? God painted the sky, to […]

So this is it. This is the gift. My pillow is a sack of crumbling bricks. I get the gist. I catch the drift. Who I am, and what I’m here to give. I’ve seen the light. And it’s alright. If one with eyes like mine can feel the bite Of iron teeth. They cut […]
