Moth Harris Poems

Light blue chills run down my spine,
spinning, mixing, our whispers intertwine.
I cast a shadow, you cast light.
I have freedom, a slave of the fight.
...

Dust collects on the windowsill in a room dull and grey.
Memories and shadows still come around and play.
A children's book was left open, where she used to lay.
The cobwebs float away.
...

She sang to me of hopeless dreams and how her nightmares came to life.
She drank away her ambitions with wet whiskey and red wine.
She gave her life to god, saying it was his to define,
but can we bare to hear his words?
...

On a frostbitten autumn day,
where lifeless leaves laid near feet.
Where two pairs of lonely eyes did meet.
Not a word, no one heard, just a glance.
...

Neon red lace the horizon,
the sun rests there.

My lips on your earlobe,
...

Just take this slow, Don't lead me on.
Give this time to grow, Couldn't be so wrong.
I've seen the signs, a moth lands on the screen.
I'm no longer blind, but you don't know what I mean.
...

Can't you see that your a burden to me now
Guess it all slipped from your hands somehow
It kills you that I'm happy with someone else
It kills me that your tried to kill me
...

Words of worry let me slip away.
I am a troubled mind and I found you,
because you make the troubles slip away
and when I'm without you they slither through my thoughts
...

Well I took a long sit on an old tomb stone
Woke the dead for a day talking a musical tone
Bones rattles, tattled on the rumor
the humor that it all ends
...
