Under the spotlight of the moon,
They traced constellations on the ground.

Mirroring the flight of the heavens divine
Heartbeats synchronized in still standing time
Poetry echoed in a sky full of dreams.

A rush of blood-A mute pause;
two breaths held for an undecipherable cause
But their feet didn't stop and they danced on,
leaving the rest of the story, to be inked by the stars.

A quanta of solace was all they had
No men, no women, nor blazing cars.
Their conversation was now composed in music bars;
The silent symphony of Venus and Mars.

When eyes meet: twin flames

Flat Earth

Paper love folded to shape pretentious hearts, torn between wants and needs. Filtered facades, upside down frowns, choreographed happiness- frozen. f r a m e d Circles of white lies-family, friends false promises, tying loose ends. Desperate kindness, string of sweet nothings all of it screaming every letter of A D D Failed attempts to subtract the negative And chasing dreams, barefoot. "making" , "buying", "selling" love Measuring the real, believing in the surreal Artificial air, set up paradise; oh! This

The Music We Make

I feel your heart Beating softly with mine A pure harmony Burrowing deep inside Crescendos and allegros— intertwining mirrors of our actions, your baritone echoing my alto, our hearts the metronome to the rhythms of our voices lifted raised in the wordless music of our song. Though I don’t know the words I merely sing the melody letting the beating of our hearts slowly lead me to the words waiting inside The cavernous organ where words coalesce and convalesce, unearthing phrases yet unspoken and thoughts undisclosed…our song—my song and your song, two favorites written and recorded as night stretches unending An

Secondhand Moonlight

A dingy harem, scattered with junkies, Stinking of lust and dusty Forget-Me-Nots A black-veiled, crimson-lipped beauty Night-haired and spacey-eyed Purple painted nails laced with cigarette smoke And a stubby cigarette laced with moonlight Skulks to my side and burns a hand on my thigh Age is creeping up her legs And her panties smell of other men And a bold-faced tattoo of last month's rent Is stamped across her feverish forehead Paper-thin desperation and two mouths to feed with a top hat on top But the champagne tastes like honey and smells like jazz You want to dance, Baby Girl? So I jive with the Shadows and their Whores Choking o

Could I Send You The Stars

Can I send you the stars? A million twinkling lettters Waiting above your head each night to be read In gentle melody like midnight lullabies For the girl I dearly wish could hear them. Can I borrow your moon? I know without it your nights may feel empty But I envy its lovely radiance shining Upon those two eyes I wish I could see wish I could gaze into So instead could I borrow your Moon? And gaze into it hoping I'll find the loveliness Of your eyes there instead. Could I steal your Sun? And pocket it's millions And millions of memories Of lightly caressing you with its rays Knowing the feel of every beautifully delicate Part of you

what does it feel like to be sober at a party?

sometimes you want to spit out your teeth because you’ve been grinding them so hard under a diaphanous coating of crimson lipstick; but you know the floors already freckled with confetti- aluminum and glass and paper- and the eburnean pearls tucked away in your mouth are not able to be recycled and sometimes it’s rivulets on the back of your neck, droplets dripping like honey, because the rooms heating up from people swarming like bees; as your cheeks burgeon like crimson roses your oversized sweater becomes your only source of safety- maybe from the constant touch of others, as they bump around like lost passengers at a train

you're never hopeless

you tell me you feel hopeless as you talk with tired eyes- the sky drips with black pen ink poured on crystal cosmic lights your eyes become black vacuums- your words turn to somber sighs, and I ask you: on the darkest of nights, have you ever seen a starless sky?

Darling, Don't You Dare

To the girl who skips dinner, Because her reflection hurts more than Starving. To the boy who wears sweatshirts On hot summer days, Because he doesn’t want his mother to cry over his Scars. To the boy who weeps uncontrollably Until he falls asleep, Because it’s the only way to escape into his Dreams. To the girl who spends her days in her bedroom, Because the dark is more peaceful than her Mind. To the child who gets angry, Because no one understands. To the teens who self-harm, To the ones in recovery, To the ones that just can’t do it anymore… Stay Strong. For the girl who skips meals And the boy who wears sw

after the party.

He's drunk in the backseat. "Anna. Anna. Anna," he moans, as if my name is a broken record his throat can't stop scratching; his voice is nettles and thorns, every natural prick and annoyance. My knuckles go white on the wheel. Ryan's riding shotgun and he won't look at me. "If you need me to drive him home, I can do it," he offers sheepishly. I don't answer, just press my foot to the gas and let the engine's rusty roar engulf John's voice. I peek in the rearview mirror. John's laying across the seat like a dead trout, and I can tell Ryan hasn't even bothered to buckle his seat belt. There's a photo album in John's arms that he clings to w

Exit, Stage Left

"You're lonely," he said. Thelma jumped, startled. She might not have even heard his voice over the thumping dance music, but it was just at that moment where there was a temporary lull between songs. He stood nearby, his head slightly tilted. Thelma glanced behind her, his words ricocheting in her mind - she wasn't sure what was more surprising, what he'd said or that he'd noticed and bothered to relay this observation to her at all. He was good-looking, tall and thin with artfully spiky hair, but something about him struck her as unsettling. Perhaps it was the way he spoke, or that his eyes were oddly piercing, but either way she felt hers

Rose and Iris

They loved their garden; Mother and Daughter would spend Hours in the sun. Behind their house was Green dotted with red, yellow, Pink and countless more. Mother loved roses; Daughter preferred irises. They planted with care. They watched the sun rise While blowing dandelions, And mimicked at dusk. Their birdbaths brought in Winged visitors who were Greeted with bird seed. All meals were eaten On a polka-dot blanket; Nothing but home-cooked. Catching butterflies, Looking for funny-shaped clouds, Climbing the oak tree. They ran, danced and sang, Never tiring of their Love for each other. Daughter did not think That her
