concerted bleeding
from imaginary thoughts
silence torments
from skin to bone
a tiring heart
this world has failed
to whisk apart
neither empty
nor full
immersing
in oceans of
expectations
*
some find peace
in fields
of stone

dry tears on my cheeks
in silence and memories
on paper I bleed

shadows
in
black and white
bleeding
reflection
on paper
where
naked words
quietly hides
my soul
planted in
orbit on
a balcony
of cloud
eternal
emotions
like rivers
flows
devouring
my shadow
like a gem
in the sky
time melts
where
memories
recede
lightning
shatters
the darkness
as the crescent
moon lights
my soul

the wings of a swan
her broken feathers withered

skies are crying
on qui vive
soaring through
silence
the shadows
the sand
every memory
a dream
I’m made of paper
reflection
in capsules
of pain
where
dusk purlieu
*
let me learn
to bleed
and break open
into the sun
rising
like a bird
on wings
of time

a
jar
of silent words
nestled
at my heart
into my fragile
nocturnes
holding me
in their arms
*
time melts love
where memories
rise
wrapped
in slippery time
**
sketches
we compose
become erased
no right to bleed
as I write
your name
in the sand
***
we
simply
proceed…

You feel it
the invisible
stone
the emptiness
alone
the heavy
nothing
that feels like
something
is invading you
upbraiding you
pulling your
without
within
and spitting it
out
again
on the inside
driving your spine
through to the outside
taking your breath
cold as death
dark hand gripping
tearing
ripping
there’s nothing
left
but you
bereft
and bleeding
empty
soul needing
Love.
