Wishing wells

There's a toll he said - 

She asked him how much - 

He said it cost nothin 

I said nothins free darling 

He said my love 

I won't leave 

I sat at the gate 

Dropped my coins in the well 

Took your hand 

Watched him - 

Walk away . 

Seeds

There's a window 

Where your fingers stained clear glass 

There's me 

Watching the reflection of the future 

I can't see - 

Prints staring at me 

I can't see past them 

I see you 

Watching me 

Inbox blinks empty 

My eyes a blank screen 

Every song on the radio

Is a conversation between you 

And 

Me . 

I can't bring it back 

As the sun sets 

I can scream 

But are you listening ? 

Current

You have stolen my heart 

Sitting beneath the sunset 

Counting shapes in the skie 

Searching for the silver lining 

Of living and learning - 

I fall asleep on an empty pillow

Waiting for what the world has for me 

I'm fine 

But 

You have stolen my heart -

Bonnie and Clyde

It's a chase amongst words 

Half wisdoms - and could haves 

Hope weighs heavy on my shoulders 

It's Bonnie - it's Clyde 

I ride in the sunset 

My face in your hands 

I can't convince you - no 

I just wanted to be your home 

Houses

I sit here with a bag of hearts 

Blaming myself -  there's no place like home 

I wasn't prepared to hold hands 

With fingers broken 

Healing in the snow 

Hold me one last time 

As I feel you breathing 

Brick buildings falling away

I sit here 

Head turned to the door 

I can't spell regret 

But this good bye spells your name 

I look away 

I can't change today 

Heart beats to yesterday 

There's no place like home 

Rebuilding is never easy 

I wasn't prepared to hold hands 

With broken fingers 

But what  you couldn't see was my feet 

Safely planted on the ground 

Here to carry 

You 

Now she walks alone 

Bag of hearts broken 

There's more to this 

More to never leaving 

Swords

There's the devil 

Sitting in his bed side manner ..... 

His grin catches the room 

Everything falls like sand slipping 

From an hour glasses throat - 

I turn to him 

He grins - 

We meet again - 

Tell me about the war 

As he tries to hold my hand 

I move past the shadow 

Into the light 

My blood violet 

Iris is an ocean 

I laugh 

As I continue on my path . 

Possibility

Across a broken sky 

Masked in umbrellas 

Lost in a maze - 

Pictures hang on walls 

Losing there gaze 

I search for windows 

It's raining ...... 

Find me here 

In this place 

Where trains they come 

And 

Go 

Where no one can hear me 

Run your fingers across my Braille 

I will watch behind your eyes 

As you keep my heart beating 

Suddenly I can't breathe 

No Good byes- tribute to gage seal who was killed at 15 years old

There's a hole  in the clouds 

Where you picked up my last smile 

Took it to heaven 

Did God realize you forgot 

We need you here 

Does he understand 

That every good night and good morning 

Has been lost in memory 

I can't forget it was yesterday 

When you hugged me 

Laughter catches fire and youre the wind 

Setting happiness to the world 

To the words wer'e left here to remember 

We pray - 

As you watch from above 

Nothing's the same 

The world cries 

Today it's raining .....

Rapid

I collect finger prints 

Like old news papers 

From my hands 

Left un touched 

Un washed - 

Shaken . 

If I turn away 

Will you find the smile 

Lost in the ocean

Separating you 

From 

Me 

I whisper your name 

In a summer rain 

No one sees me there alone 

Dreaming - 

I wrap his jacket around me 

I watch you laughing 

But it's in my sleep 

As I sit here collecting 

Finger prints 

From hands 

Like old news papers 

Shaken - 

Left here alone 

What Is Love

We fit in a box 

No unfinished sentence 

Or period 

No smeared or blank conversation 

We speak with out talking 

We hear with out having to listen 

There's something to be said about magic 

The way it's unfolded 

Two magnets from two ends of the earth 

Collide in one room 

Under a million circumstances 

To only be reminded that they just get it 

As one world becomes two 

Never really becoming one again 

Painted

Tracing circles around tired eyes
Watching an empty sky
I break away

Theirs a filthy canvas I paint
Can you see me hide
the music plays against the stars
as they rust from magnet skies.

Take my hand let me kiss you
even if its pretending
Ill jump from your bridge
Into everything you want to erase

Feel my finger prints
leaving scars -

Call me Eros
as arrows hail from walking dead

theirs nothing I can do
The needle was half way in when you were found ~


I am an addict just like you ......


I lie here counting stars
from with in


as I sit on your blankets
Its cold
a holocaust
sitting in your coffin
As it beats

Tracing circles
Letting me kiss you
Even if its just pretend.

Converge

God gave us graces 

With mercy on her back 

I can't seem to find the road 

That leads back 

There's a mask on the sky tonight 

Hiding her secrets 

As I jot them down 

If I can see you 

Who then sees me 

As I remain in a hollow hand 

Do you understand ? 

Close your eyes 

That's where you will find me 

In the words she never said 

It's a complicated matter 

I'm sure 

As I kiss you good night 

As I find my way home 

I kiss the hearts of sailors 

Of slaves 

Of warriors 

I remain invisible 

As I rest my head 

Will you find me 

In all she left you with
