Take my body today
for my soul leaves it tomorrow

take my joys away right now
for tomorrow i shall drown in my sorrow
...

remember you caressed me to sleep
soothing safe uncaring
i drifted to the sound of your voice
soft and passionate
...

rustling waves
fumbling froth
winking reflections
yawning glory
...

yes it happened
one autumn night
discarded a leaf feel upon my face
crispy and brown
...

the fury of the thunder
crashes the clouds
laced with love
...

Saw my face in the mirror
a familiar set of eyes stared back

saw the back of my hand
...

Dedicates this to some
dear people recently
put through the
fire. Knowing they hold
...

Lay yourself down on My altar,
sacrifice yourself to My desire.

Let Me drink the wine of blood from your lips,
to flay the very skin from your bones.
...

from within the vista of guilt
for timelessness now,
my spirit tortured

in this hot fiery night
...

walking down this familiar beach,
today i feel like a broken man

once the world within reach
...

FROM FAR FAR AWAY PLACES
no songs of satin and blue silk laces

the same heart races
...

Once upon a time a one and a two
however young
just ran out of time and limped out to
a one and a three
...

Two tiring eyes
One failing faith
Two hands in tandem
One lost religion
...
