the heavens birthed romance
viewed through emerald eyes
he smiles, she sighs
in too many tries at substance
i'm here the stuff of fiction
unpleasant reveries
selling out the best of me for blistering impermanence
like chasing fallen angels
hoping if this icharus gets burned enough times
one day i'll be consumed
and write her name on the sun
and if i die trying
at least i'll die for something
and something is better the empty skyed nights
spent in transient castles
me in ephemoral rapture and no one to stare at these stars with

tears in the viridian
feels like it's her again
my hurricane hope for calmer waters
and a broken daughter

i only want the wind to stop.
fall dead to the ground
and the only sounds these dreary nights make
are the whispers of God to my heart, my soft spoken stalemate

chroma

can you just give me something?
_____________________(summed up to nothing)

give me something that will (you) be there when i wake up(?)

______________(summer glow still blushing)

give me something that creeps past the cracks of these closed eyelids

makes it's bed in their green placid pools

and i've yet to steep these tepid feet into anything so emerald

i don't know where we left off last

the BACK AND FORTH

(rotary blades)

BACK AND FORTH

(and it's over we say)

BACK AND FORTH

(but we're older we pray)

{peace that passes my understanding of this fallen kingdom's culture}

-all i ask is innocence-

some visceral wishing

we could spread forever

so thin and

impermanent

-human and satisfied-

i hold out for truth and

settle for transient castles

at home on the wind

moved at the caprice of a less god imposter

i'm not where i ought be

i've forgotten our calling

all to often we soften these hearts' heaven forged iron

in the chests of flesh frail

paint the walls viridian dismal

lucid love drug into our beds and into our heads

[God have mercy on us]

we cherish them

shame on you.

shame on me.

the shadowy seas and swallowed each storm

with subconcious subjective

unrelenting love
