missed a kiss

You take us,
to where pain,
is plain,
planned : ordained,
open expansive oceans,
calm : subtle change,
darkness,
endangered,
instead of my in sane,
an end, angered swiftly,
turns into dew-dropped rain,
cut stems, angled, ripped free,
you ripple through me,
gently,
our wild tamed,
I claim:
your peace : my ease,
you aim:
our dream : belief,
a piece of we,
seek me.

Mosaic

My clouds erase their silver lining glancing towards his shimmering glow,
stormy eyes soothe with grace as he hands me truthful rainbows.
Lost in a strengthening imaginary embrace, I’m found unlocked into his fated palms,
a menacing artistry laid out in his sparkling coat of arms.

Living inside my doubtful mind, he soothes my raging furious rows,
even ciphers can’t touch his angel wings when I’m burrowed in his beautiful brow.
So when life isn’t journeying in a particularly thought-out or destined way,
I think about our melted stardust, stitching us back together everyday.

And you may,
think,
it’s just another cliche,
but where would the moon be without the tides bringing his sun kissed morning every day?

You are my sky in each of these floating falling stars,
a crescent wrapped around in a smile for all the scars that you are:
because it appears as an epiphany before me in ephemeral parts…
you are my hailing halo in my darkest heart.

up in flames

the cycle goes on.
will it stop?
crushing.
but not like that.
commanding dogs.
Mush.
Outsane.
I had a piece, and it wasn’t me.
Easy.
Moving on.
I am free.
Accents.
Quavers.
Quivers, in a heart beat.
Sweet.
What will be.
It’s a brand new day.
I rise with a raise.
I’m blazing.
