Left out to dry

The vacuum of your disposition siphoned the blood from my heart

Skin and bone fractured from the start

Rendered as an eternal distraction

Sleep well tonight my dear Marigold 

For I have no sword to spare

You have wielded mine to inflict mortal damage

Bleeding out slowly to the psalm of your artificial tongue

Eyes of manipulation and mutilation

Succeeding ...

The days seem longer

Dragging my burlap sack of grief through the mud

Screaming into an emotional abyss

I blindly continue this unforgiving journey

Not knowing where my next step will lead me

Relinquish me of this affliction

Why should the weight of another persons inhibitions sink me to the depths of the Mariana’s Trench?

For when I gaze towards the light, only darkness se...

The hardest part is turning life’s pages

Gazing at an empty canvas of uncertainty

Failing to form words of solace and structure

We always know where to end

But how do we know where to begin

Rain graciously descending from the clouds of elation

Colliding against cracked window panes

Streaking downwards, like tears rolling off a innocent cheek  

Fallen to your knees

Those which came before reside forever in our construct

Rain down on me

Watering the soil, where the past meets our home at last

Grasping onto all that’s left

Palms filled with elation

Watching as the sand pours through my nimble fingers

This was designed to last for years

How did we get here?

No glancing back

Eaten alive from the inside out

What have you done to my heart?

Dancing with the devil is audacious

Unknowingly stepping to the beat of my fate

A masquerade sponsored by fallacy and infidelity

Standing upon the shattered champagne glasses of my trust

Penetrating the soles of my oxfords as I continue this dance

Though I can no longer hold a glass, I bear the trust where I walk, through streets or through grass.

Holding onto me
Your thorns pierce my side
Accepting my fate 
Serpent tongue of lust and manipulation
A soul breached from the words which left your mouth 
A heart broken from the actions of your loyalty
Shattered glass of trust trails your every move
Barefoot I walk upon your path until I perish
Bloody and scared indefinitely 
Lead me upon your path of glass shards
I shall solely walk f...

Even in our distant placements 
The wind carries your pollen
Covering my petals in the soot of your love 
Oh how I wish our roots could be together 
Sharing the beauty of rainfall as it soaks through the soil
I am one without you, but we are none without each other
Make this time go by, farewell my lover

All I’ve ever known
Was love with no beginning 
All I’ve ever known
Was love with no meaning 
All I’ve ever known 
Was love was forever leaving 

Oh where is my marigold?

Searching every crevice 
Climbing every mountain 
Before I knew it, I stood tall and thin
Drained of the hunt 
I rest my head on a trunk 
Vivid dreams brought me to your fields of elation 
Restless I press further

Returning to your soul I sleep
Calmed by the tenderness of your heart 
You are my moonlight at my darkest hour
And my sunlight in my brightest moments 
Guiding me on a path of fruition
Oh my marigold, 
Fostered by the droughts of your past 
I wish to reflect the light in which you radiate
Sowed together by mere serendipity 
Our roots intertwined by all that is divine

I am lost 
Lost in the fact that I no longer know what the future holds
Lost in my ability to be good partner
Lost in my ability to perform at work
Lost in my thoughts 
I have crashed my ship into rocks 
Stranded on this figment of reality we call life
Drawn between comfort and risk 
Will I ever find a way to mend this sickness

A world of uncertainty

Leaves life without a meaning

Plotting your journey on a map with form

Distance and time spearing you to the floor

Spontaneity and the notion of irrationality

Appear to make one’s life more fruitful

As it is not micromanaged

I have kissed the feet of a goddess

For it is the foundation of which she walks on

Grounding her to the magnificent wonders of earth

From the moment we met, I considered you the eighth wonder of my world

Undeniably mysterious, but graciously admired

Your awe is of that which cannot be written

Filtered through the eyes of my existence

Exposing your soul with every sentence

The moments with you seem surreal

From the instant we met, my nimble heart hasn’t been the same

An overloading affinity of pure ecstasy

A dam couldn’t withhold my love for you

Your gentle hands of solicitude, soothing my thin hair

I find peace in knowing, you will always be here

Love is an understatement

Instead I found true purpose in the body of a stranger

Before we me...

Embodied by words of your serpent tongue

Fully grasping the notability of our verbal trust

Invisible, but seemingly faithful

A trust, which I deem imperishable

Also a trust in which you lack accountability

Oh so dear to my heart

You’ve broken down and swallowed my faith

Dissolving within the lies of your stomach

With my mind dragging along the earthy soil by a chain

Glory isn’t always everything

Striving for such magnitude can lead to issues

For I myself have singed off the edges of my ambition

Once fresh and bountiful , now lay few and fatigued

Glory is only fruitful if maintained consistently, similar to that of a corn field

Glory, representing the bright flame of a fire

Attracting individuals from far and wide

Just because you are cl...

Tranquilly awoken by the chirping of robins

The sun narrowly gleaming over the hazy horizon

Fresh dew providing my senses with clarity as this new dawn arrises

Appreciating the rush of crisp air as it permeates throughout the room

Whilst also savoring the warmth of the quilts and the comfort of my lover

As yesterdays troubles fade in the sunlight

I have awoken to begin anew

Have you ever thought of life as a book?

Initially you start out slow

Experiencing your first steps as the main character

Striving to unravel the mysteries betwixted within the bindings

Gathering contextual clues introduced as each page is tenderly turned

Unfolding the framework of our existence upon pages that were formerly empty

With a great understanding of the plot among us

Your happiness cannot be measured when you are around others

One’s happiness can only be measured when alone

Detaching yourself, perhaps from a distorted lifestyle of what seems true

Clearing your thoughts of all external influences

Perched from an outward perspective

You seem to find answers looking inward

If you are ever feeling lost, remember that life itself is a jungle.

Vast and unending.

Everything is bound to kill you.

Life gets humid from time to time.

Sweat constantly rushing down your creased forehead.

The pain of your soles treading through the forestry.

As you observe your surroundings, the same landmarks present themselves.

Internal thoughts of misery and confu...

Euphoric interventions upon your soulful presence

Cradled between the wisdom of my words

An independent being of driven fortitude and fierce dispositions

Peacefully resting upon ...

Your love is that of rain

The roots of my heart quenching your vital sustenance

Once a desert of oblivion

A single acacia stood limber

Dry rot infesting the trunk of my disposition

Birds vacant upon the branches of my shoulders

Continuous mental sandstorms battering my bark

Peeling away, exposed to the elemental destruction of the sun

Desolate lumber for which I had embodie...

We become lost within ourselves

Permanently fixated on our reflection upon the water

The image casted out constitutes one’s ego

Dive into your actions and reasoning

Continually finding ways to stay grounded

Anchor yourself

As there is infinite things to learn below one’s surface

Roaming amongst the fields of love

The potent whiff of pollen piercing my nose

Admiring the beauty of all of the flora

Foraging for a flower providing a lasting presence within my hands

Stumbling upon a patch of fluorescent orange marigolds

One keenly catching my eye

Contrary to the others

A healthy stem of self confidence

Roots, diverse and intellectually meticulous

Once a inhospitable plot of territory

Fields yielding anything but good fortune

Quenching for the rainfall

Never ending winters

Unbearable summers

Drawing every ounce of hope from one’s soul

Entombed by the soot of my thoughts

One has no control of the weather, so why worry?

The rain will fall when it’s ready

Just humbly wait

As it will be with grace

Rising into infatuation 
Levitating above the atmosphere 
Statured within a hero’s square 
The copper of your figure wearing away
Bronze turning into green 
Leaving no chance for the next generation to see 
True unending beauty 
Flowers shielding the base 
Intricate features of unequivocal elegance 
Amounting to all that is and will be 
Forever imprinted into my memory

An ethereal distraction

Glowing out of every dark fragment of reality

A light present in the stormy and dullnesses of life

Tethered by cables of intimacy

Dispersed over lands

Carried with electricity

Grab hold of me and you will never let go

As my love for you is deadly

Anchor the words in which I say

As they carry the weight to idle a boat

Leaving a permanent imprint onto the ocean floor as my words sink

As you do not want to drift off course

Bonded with intent

Lengthened with assurance

Casted out to your greatest depths

My words will always reach the...

A notebook wielding your name

Layered ink plastering the canvas

Containing so much meaning

That which encompasses an entire realm of mysteries

Attempting to decipher

Bringing forward her history at last

Why do the most authentic moments seem the most surreal?

Tunnel vision masking my vision

Focusing the optical lens

Guiding my eyes to yours

Postured on a pillar

You fell upon my presence once before

A comfortable yet daring experience of bliss

Intertwined and in sync

Let us see what we can be

Uneasy terrain, cratered pain

Love will allow you to see in due time

Fascinated by all that’s random

Our short lived interactions with strangers

Always questioning what could be

A rolling scenario of ifs

Life is that of a mere die

Set numbers plaguing our skull

One just has to give it purpose

One can truly never be ready

Years of self work and reflection boiling down to a singular moment

One can prepare for war

But to be in war are completely different

As you must always be ready for the unknown

Until that day comes... be prepared to be unprepared

Life’s unanswered questions leave the greatest impressions

Riddling the enigma presented within our interlude

Grasping onto the intangible

All does not make sense to one

But one pursues the knowledge of all

Postured on the edge of a cliff

Waves dancing, birds singing,

Coming to the conclusion that not everything has to make sense

And that is the most beautiful part of it...

Promise me the security of our relationship

Shall nothing wedge between our harmonic souls

Dancing, such as the flames of a grand fire

As most fires start out robust

Forging sparks and uncontrollable wisps of true bliss

Forget not to keep placing more kindle

As it will die out

While also cleaning out the ash

As it is now apart of the past

The warm glow of her complexion

Filling an entire room with luminescence

Her mere presence producing a beautiful stillness, leaving no other image to seem clear

Regardless of their past, throw it in the trash

We sit here in the present

Studying the minutest facets

Eternally alone

Suffocated by the vacuum of love

Emotions transgressed as gamma particles

Passing through without resistance, as if they didn’t notice

Radiant but invisible to humans

Travelled by currents of air or streams of water

Plaguing the ones that come into contact

No one will truly understand me, as my love is that of quantum intimacy

We become one with the environment around us

Controlled by the earthly soil beneath

Shepherded by the celestial entity’s above

Inspired by the disorganization of all that’s populated within our field of view

Eventually you come to the realization

That the question of our mere existence resides in our biological intuition and wonder.

Infatuated in the design of love

But ideas are only good residing within one’s mind

Searching for balance

Presented in a picturesque view, but blown over with little to no ...

Gripping ahold of each rock that lays in your presence

Holding on, until either you or the rock gives

Falling into the past and out of your life
