Weed

Maybe you are the consequence of my past actions

The debt owed for my indiscretions

There was no forgiveness of sin

The price had to be paid, and from within

You were a bridge I should have burned

The one lesson I should have learned 

But I hoped against hope that this would last

Forgetting that I was a prisoner of the past

I should have known that you were out of my league

I should have remembered the curse of my reality

The one that will haunt me eternally

That you are the flower and I am the weed

"Saturn"

I'll Be Good

yep...sharing again

Atlantis

In The Moonlight...

The moon caressed your skin as you stood there gazing into the ocean

The wind howled as it danced with your hair 

It brought me your aroma as it released you from its hold

I breathed you in deeply, closing my eyes, as I lost myself in your fragrance

I can feel you drawing closer as the air shifted to accommodate your presence

Your silhouette coming into focus but I haven't opened my eyes

I can hear you speak but you haven't uttered a word

I can feel your kiss upon my lips but you haven't touched me yet 

Now I lie awake in the aftermath of it all

Wondering how you had survived the fall

I still think of our tumultuous time

When I was yours and you were mine 

I never wanted to push you away

I didn't know there was another way

I wish I could have held you for a little while longer

I wish I could have been a little more stronger

But in the end what is done can not be undone

There's no returning to the place where we once were

The writing was placed on the wall

Now there's no time for a last call

The flower and the weed

I look for you among the meandering crowd

Among the nameless, faceless, directionless flood

Yet you are not there, then again why would you be?

A precious flower would not dwell with weeds

But here I am within that same crowd

Dare to dream that I'm worthy of your love

Wondering how I could escape this hold

This mindset of mediocre goals

So I look for you on some lonely path

Knowing that they're yours to chart

Moving  away from the maddening crowd

The silence of our ignorance so astonishingly loud

I  look for you but you're not there

How can my Princess just disappear?

Why can't I find you, the one whom I seek?

Why do you elude me like a restful night' sleep?

But you have seen me from a far way off

You silently watch me navigate the crowd

As I struggled to escape the all consuming flood

As I call out to you not knowing where to turn

Then after all is said and done

Reality has rocked the foundation of love

How could the universe allow this travesty

Where a flower would actually love a weed

For The Princess Surreal

In the dead of the night when the monsters are asleep 

When the dew drops on the roof seem muffled and weak 

When the night insects around me silence themselves 

And the coldness engulfs me casting its spell

I lay prostrate in the darkness mimicking the night 

A calmness on the outside but a cold turmoil inside 

I want to gaze upon your angelic face 

And kiss your lips full of wonders and grace

My mind is tormented because you are not here 

The dreams have departed and now my soul is laid bare 

I call out to you hoping the dreams would reappear 

I need you within me I need you like air
