Whisper

Whisper

Whisper
to me
Dive into 
my soul
and I'll set
you free

He dug
right in
to my flesh
and watched me 
bleed

Watched me
bleed

Close your
eyes
You can not
hide
from his
breathe
from his
eyes
his touch

His hand
lingers 
in my
soul
Pushing me
down
Holding
me still
and I
freeze

Like a bitter
winters
breeze

He is the
voice
in my head
I keep 
hearing
instead
of my own
He is the
guilt
that fills
me up
The sin
that I 
swim in

oh
let me go
let me go

These stones
I carry
are not mine
I wonder
if I'll forever
feel their 
weight

Whisper

Whisper
to me
This echo
in my heart
I do not know
if it will
always be

Miss Lonelyhearts

I invited
Miss Lonelyhearts
for a high noon
cup of tea
She said
"I can feel
your heart 
It's just the same
as me"
I looked
into her eyes
In search
of something
I could deny
But all I found
was fear
I asked her 
what was
happening here
I've seen this
all before
I didn't need her
to tell me
anymore
So I put
some music on
And we danced
around
the room
When it was time
to say good-bye
I told her
I hoped not to
see her again
too soon

Miss Lonelyhearts is a character from the Hitchcock film, Rear Window

Droplets In The Sea

Look up
at the sky
Tell me what
do you see
I know there's 
little bit
of you
and a 
little bit
of me
Because we all
go together
like droplets
in the sea
What is
a part of you
can be seen
inside of me
I love the world
in laughter
in rapture
and in joy
I'll always 
feel the
misfortune
when you break
your favorite toy
And when
our souls
feel like
shadows
living beneath
the dust
We must try
a little harder
to shine
so our souls
may never rust

My Lovely Reverie

I'll cross
your bridge
and fill
you up
with everything
I need
And I know
that in
return
you will do
the same
to me
I'll nail you
to a cross
and wrap
you up 
in burlap strings
There
you'll stay
until one
day
you hear
my voice
sing
I'll sing
for you
and lick away
your wounds
I'll cover
you
in wildflowers
and we'll
make
love
until
we bloom

-May 2014
