What dreams are passing through my breath?
a bad taste or a sweet remark like a kiss on the lips of a lover.
Say sweetly in my ear a whisper so hot I let my soul drip out.
what comes freely isn’t so easy and all the easy things shouldn’t all be free.
But they are- for you.
You want to be God and linger in the bellies of everyone you fucked but you dont care if its a tumor or just burning of the heart.
leave me in this broken bed, sheets stained by the sweat of another when I’m longing for yours and nothing more.
climb down the latter to my room and find me dreaming of tomorrow.
I live so deeply in the past of regrettably favored days,
packing up my bookcase feels like packing up the person who learned to love you.
she hangs on to the silver thread of a broken necklace once worn.
Thread by thread there comes a time when links are broken, battered and shed.
its heavy, its real heavy, all of it is.
We used to float away, the two of us, but I’ve gathered now things were never as they seemed.
veiled dreams and confusing things, I’m not so jaded.
take me back and lay me down on the stone ground you set for me.
Pebbled creeks and rocks, I let the sand dry crystals in my curls and save them for later.
A chipped tooth and shining light- i have no secrets in my cave.
my legs are wide open.
if you cared to feel the questions you’d ask me you wouldn’t be a man, so ask again
ask again, ask again you promised you felt and im sure you did but you took it to the grave.
sonnets after sonnets I caught that small swallow, she asked to be set free and i watched her soar.
things like that love so freely they don’t have time to regret
and neither do i,.
