You will never prove
Your deepest, darkest disdain
Is not aimed at me
You will never prove
Your deepest, darkest disdain
Is not aimed at me
As I realize
The downright folly of thoughts
I pull them up high
At day’s end I fall
into the red not having
known the poem of you.
Unsettled I am
Reflecting on the fine line
Hope and Delusion
sweet and willing wings
the babiest bird I seek
to rest my tired head
None ebony plan
Do you have for where I ache
Sing me then to sleep
I want our alone
Damn it how you talk to me
As if I were yours
i’m wasting a wish
but it feels worth it to me
i wish you nearer
A screaming Eagle
Has made this life most perfect
It’s not what I saw
Of sand, stars, ashes
We’re on our knees, sifting through
Blindfolded even
