I love thee in too many ways to know.
I count them on my fingers, on my toes,
And still not enough all the ways
How I love thee; it’s insurmountable.
...
It’s so natural
So easy and familiar
To my senses.
It’s just too repetitive
...
How do you breathe so slow, so placid?
So calmly, so cool and collected?
Don’t you know there’s a war at your door?
It’s knocking – persistent – they seek blood.
...
Fire
Voracious, aggressive
Smoldering, licking, unforgiving
In the end, destruction ceases all
...
You grab with hands so strong
The welts are still here
You didn’t choke my throat
You choked my innocence
...
The stars
Completely glow
In eyes full of skepticism,
Thrusting me into forced hesitation,
...
I can’t believe I trusted you
echo echo
I can’t believe I lied for you
echo echo
...
Helios
Tearing through the forested horizon
Slapping the sky with a plethora of colors
An artwork from a child prodigy
...
I just can’t keep
my mind off you;
you’re consuming every thought.
