I'm so glad I heard from you
Even if only but for a moment in time
A tiny vapor
Drifting away in the breeze
We didn't realize it would surely be forever
What was left unsaid
Or that it would be the last time
We would ever speak
I would have poured out more words
I would have said more meaningful things
Tried to calm the storm within your soul
I wouldn't have been so busy
But we didn't know
We didn't know
Here today gone tomorrow
Another candle flame
Disappeared into the night
This world lost yet another bright light
I'll forever remember you brother

I'd have liked to have told you goodbye
But the truth is
We never would have ever said it

You never ceased to surprise and amaze me
No one has loved me as you once did
I'm not sure anyone ever will
Late summer lake nights
Fire
Chicken cacciatore
You always seem to look at me
Like I was the most beautiful
And dangerous person
You'd ever seen or met
We were a different kind of magic
You and I
When I cried
You held me like it was the last time you'd ever hold me
And then one night it was

Did you think
Even if just for a moment
In time
Through space
That you could simply
Just pick her back up
Right where you left her
Like your favorite book
That you could dust off her jacket
And smell her pages
Relishing in how she is home
To your soul
The only true place
That ever mattered
You could climb in between her covers
Sheets and sheets of
Earmarked pages
Where you'd die to get lost
Longing to trace the lines of her palms
Like words long forgotten

Maybe perfection isn't in you
The world doesn't always
Seem as it is
Or maybe it is just as it seems
But we twist it
Into what we wish it to be
We play these games for keeps
But we're playing with plastic pieces
Play money
Paper hearts

There are some things you don't come back from
Some things that you do not survive
I have lived
Yet I too have died
Spoken Words can not be erased
Expressions you can taste
Echoing through your mind
Bittersweet reflections
Time after time
Stronger now
Than then
Tongues of vipers
Venomous bites
Slaying at any given whim
Stained glass broken
Sharp shards
Dissecting your pieces
That you left behind
It is a dangerous place
Inside your mind...

In your gentle sleepy slumber
You search for me
And although I lay awake
Sleepless
I let you tuck me in to you
Falling victim
To your breathing
The rhythm
Breathing in
Breathing out
Deep
Heavy
Yet weightless
Love
Encompasses my heart
And sets my soul at ease
Of all the weariness
Life often brings
And in your arms
I drift off to dreams.

Write me letters
Sing me songs
Hold me close
Open doors
Drive me home
Hang onto to every word
I pour out before you
Breathe into me
Your life
Tary not
Before I push
Pull me close
Dont let go
I'd like to paint your soul
With my colors
I promise
Even if it all
Comes to an end
Tomorrow
You won't soon forget
Color me your wild

In life we appear to have freedom
Yet we are caged.
In death we appear to be held captive
Yet only then are we truly free.

Sadness is heavy so heavy. Sometimes it's hard to tell yourself apart from it. Tears threaten to overcome you like a tsunami overtakes lands. Emotions thunder through us like seasons. You know? Seasons overturning. Sadness is like winter. Shaking the leaves off. Goodbyes. Teaching teaching to let go. Taking away. Then spring breezes in. Crisp. Fresh. Singing. Perhaps the sadness we carry will grow into something new. Finding beauty in the healing. Healing. Barefoot green grass days are yet to come. I long to run. Then summer saunters in. Hot and steamy. Water. Sweat. Swimming and diving. Deep. Sadness is under the surface. Always waiting to pull down with the undertow. The flow. Yet summer nights. Oh Summer nights light up darkness on the Deck. Watching your face in the candle glow. Gimme all the summer nights before I fall. Watching leaves fall into the sadness. Puddles that fill my mind from time to time.

She is a heavy heart
A free mind full of excruciatingly beautiful and tragic wonderments
Stories untold hidden deep within her soul
Her heart palpates at the depth of every thought
Lost she is but wholly found within herself
She knows what she is made of
What she is capable of
Every heartbeat is a song
She too knows your every movement
Knows how to read your subtle suggestive body language
The way you tilt your chin
Or hesitate before telling your grandest of lies
The look in your deceptive eyes
She knows more than she should and goes along with the game of life
She smiles and laughs
She shares within her an angelic love
And you will search for her in the windows of every soul you ever meet
But what she is built of
Did not build them...

If there were never anymore tomorrows
And this day was not quite won
I'd wait for you on the other side
And meet you in dead run

Fighting words
Never said
Thoughts
Never mentioned
Ghosts in the attic
Of my soul
Haunting
Footsteps
Long forgotten
Of places
Buried deep
Nestled at the waters edge
Of the dreams
That dance
Through my sleep
Restless in the darkness
Flames flicker
Burning
Through the night
Whispers across my skin
Holding me hostage
Again and again

Jazbaaton ki neelami...
Ye duniya ab jaise ek bhare bazaar si lagti hai
Na Teri na Meri, koi alag hi Sansar lagti hai...
Main apni zindagi ki Kya keemat lagaun yahan
Jahaan har Roz jazbaaton ki neelami aur aansuon ki baujhar lagti hai
Kitney saare sapney ab bhi khuli aankhon me jagti hai
Meri nakamiyaabi ab bhi mere saath chalti hai
Toote Dil aur Ujadte Ghar ki Kya keemat lagaun wahan..
Jahaan har Roz jazbaaton ki neelami aur aansuon ki baujhar lagti hai
Purane tasveer ko dekhke mann hi mann muskurata hun
Mera hi toh Kal tha, par ab ek alag hi duniya lagti hai
Itne saare yaadon aur bikhre huye armanon ki kya keemat lagaun wahan
Jahan har roz jazbaaton ki neelami aur aansuon ki baujhar lagti hai...

Mere baad bhi tu...
Tu na aayi Teri yaad chali aayi
Koshish ye Meri aaj phir Ghar laut aayi...
Din se raat aur raat se din ho chali hai
Lagta hai Maut ke aage bhi ek aur gali hai...
Main milunga wahan tu us mod zaroor aana
Mujhe dekhke mujhe choon ke mujhe Amar Kar jaana....
Kya bataun tere baad Kya Kya huya hai
Sharir se Dil...Dil se rooh Tak barbaad huya hai
Aaj Meri mujhse koi umeed na bachi...
Mere aage bhi tu...aur baad bhi tu hi raha hai.

Could you hold me for a little while
Tell me where you've been
Tell me what crosses your mind
From time to time
Bury your secrets in my skin
Unfold those pages of the past
I wanna see
I wanna see what you survived
Without me between the lines
When the stars refused to shine

Moving
Toxicity
Free falling
In an orchestrated order
Within which
You'll need to gain strength
To climb
Succumbing to the brokeness
Parts of you
That you never knew were broken
Razor sharp edges
Imperfections laid out on a towel
Before you
Trying to remove the tarnish
From every crevice
Believe that you don't deserve
The adventure set before you
Healing in ways
You never knew you could
Free falling
Toxicity
Moving

A trillion times over
You want her to stay
But you're not willing
Not willing at all
To take the burdens
From her shoulders
Away

Some people awaken things
Within us
Awaken parts of us
That we didnt know existed
And when they go
We love them still
And are thankful of them
No matter how much
Their leaving
Tears us apart
No matter how much
Their leaving
Tears them apart

You are my stardust
My precious star dust
Oh how I love thee
For all of time
You are my star dust
My precious star dust
Oh how I'm so glad
To call thee mine
When nights I wander
Oh how i wander
You are there
Ever so bright
You hold my hand
And walk beside me
Oh how you
Light up my every night
