Metallic butterflies wind through a Gauntlet of branches
Raspberry breeze runs through my hair And dances with the charcoal shadows
Their sultry movement keeps the rhythm Of this night
Misty plums sweeten the harsh vultures cry Into tiny melodies hardly audible while Trapped inside magic raindrops
The birds song escapes the liquid droplets As they crash onto the concrete desert
All beneath the mystery of neon lights

nothing exists
Nothing exists, not even this voice of mine These simple words, Illusions are gone: Desire, hope, these two That makes waking possible dawn after Dawn They used to make me tremble But nothing has value. Earth does not Care Life is the narrowness of this poem The grind of composition, and what I write- Tasteless, useless, (though it begs to live!), is dust even before it reaches your ears. Sleep. Go back to the chaos of beginnings.Stay there. No moon above those cool, featureless trees: Black, emptiness which is time, which is If we can bare it, - all the world is. Mute path of stars incrazed, magnificent Nature, sickness, people struggling to love The air of cities and rich fields It’s the God’s; it is our consciousness, It means we now are (You and I) Each word next to a stone.

drummer boy
It doesn't take much to please me A kiss, guitars, and lip gloss All I've ever wanted in a boy: Soft hands, weary pick, strum my little heart Boys with guitars are the best But I wanna marry the little drummer boy
Clawing at couches and sleepy rooms And his face, Soft as a powdered stone And structured, shaped, Oh, and what a great beat
I love when a guy has a soothing voice Sounds like a cats purr Or a baby blue sky Humming and dancing While he sings for only me With an emo sweater And black dickeys
It doesn't take much to please me A mustang, pierced tongue, black hair and beanies

untitled
You there, hiding in The shadow of my silent Times You, the one whom I see within my sorrow The time in your words- Storms make them heard Lovely like a rose You, my hidden teardrop- I pronounce your words- No, you cannot see how You there, your name Is my Sunlight Baby Exhausted to go down You, my stormy days My golden Times The mirror, through which I see my window

waking up beside you
Waking up beside you As my skin begins to drift I hear the god’s calling Threatening with their prayers I watched angels gather In your hollow chest Preaching in tiny whispers And living underneath our love I took a breath, slowly Brushing your hair with my fingers Weaving passion into your ears As you slept There, beside me And I continue to drift… Longing to here you say "Good-morning, love" As I trace "we belong to each other" on your belly What splendor, being near you Watching your eyes hum dreams Not willing or wanting to let you go You are mine, as you slept.

bullets
In my eyes you are nothing less that Perfection Stubborn in your ways Headstrong Ideas fly out of your mouth like bullets Gently sprinkled in gun powder With no intention to harm Your beauty Everything that I’ll never be A soul, so innocent, naïve Something violent in your mind But you are nothing more than a Love song Drumming my naïve mind Beating the shit out of my spirit But you’re beautiful And I’m hungry And guilty Drown me in you love then Kill me with you bullets

chaos
Tonight is the night that the world ended. The volcanoes erupted and the mountains mended. Houses filed on top of one another And all was chaos in the world. Lightening and thunder Frightened children and their mothers Old ones whined and whispered of death Lost souls caught out of breath And all of this, Was created for our good Because humanity did not what we should We didn’t give enough money Or feed enough hungry Didn’t stop those how weep From crying themselves to peace We killed ourselves, and we continue to fall Into insanity and the driven walls That we can not break down, our hands are too weak And how my body was built, My personality’s too meek. I’m shallow and loathsome in my self-esteem.
i'm not going to think of you
I’m not going to think of you
I’ll be strong, just for a while…
I’m not sad, I just miss you
Soft lips
Tasty tongue
Playing with your messy hair
Feeling you breathe down my neck
Or watching you beneath me
I imagined this morning that
You and I slept
Side my side
As you slept, my eyes
Danced up and down you body
You are so beautiful, baby
It’s like your heart can be seen
Right through your smile
Caressing my sheets the way you
Do my stomach
I need you
I need to hear you say “good morning, sunshine” to me
I need to know you want me
And no one else
I want to feel your skin beside
Mine
I want you inside me
I need you to crave me
In the middle of the night
The way I do you
It’s a burning feeling
It’s a ring of emotions around my lips
Comfort me with your passion
Sweet, dear, love
kyle
Kyle,
This is a letter you’ll never receive. And even if so, you’d never believe
That I stay up at night with thoughts oh
You kiss
Or the touch of your hands
That’s so painfully missed
This is a letter you’ll never possess
I close my eyes and remember your caress
So faintly its placed into my mind
But for anything less
I would not bind
This is a rhyme without a rhythm
I feel my lips tense up and quiver
I remember your embrace
So engulfing and warm
And now with its absence
My heart is so worn
This is a letter I thought I’d never write
Kyle, I’ve lost you and you’re out of my sight
At times I don’t remember or can
Barely recall
Why it was in the first place
That I loved you at all
(My lousy attempt at rhyming!)
stallion
Can I call you my wild horse?
And ride you long through the night?
Will you bend and bow beneath me
Watching my hips sway and thrust
Listening to my beckons and calls
Tasting every bit of bitter sweetness of my sweat
Feeling my body shiver and convulse
Will you journey my thunderous valleys
Or nails and tongues and breast and thighs
Scallop along, with your eyes closed
Enjoying every inch of the terrain
(Not finished)
tease [playful thoughts]
Sweaty palms and luscious breasts,
Caressing,
And blurry, sweet skin
Entangled limbs of
Legs and arms
Juicy tongues
Engaged and fueled by
Moist firm lips
Gentle touched down my back
A tingling sensation down my spine
Fluttery fingers in between my thighs
Firmly flattering my every desire
Bitten mouths and hungry eyes
Painful intension but playful thoughts
His arms wrap around me
Lay me on top of silky dreams
Heavily breathing on my neck
Rosy cheeks and inflamed flesh
Pulsing organs, I can feel your sex
Throbbing and begging
Hungry
My mouth taunts it, with false intentions
Waiting
Yearning to be released
Sucked
Ah, but I’m just a tease
wish list
I wish you were chocolate
So I could cherish and devour you
Taste your sugar on my tongue
Feel your sickness in my cavities
And smile in delight.
I wish I were a quilt
Covering and protecting you
Thick and on top of you
Comforting you all through the night
And never abandoning your care
I wish you where made of wood
So I could carve myself into you
Burn you with all of my passion
For centuries to come
I wish I were made of rose petals
Soft, sweet skin
Velvety smell that could tease your senses
Dark, sinful red that can tame any man – I wish…
I wish you were beside me
Running your fingers up and down my face
Slipping across my lips
Running down to my neck
I wish you were inside me
Watching your intense expressions
Feeling you heat flame inside
And gently pulling out…
Then doing it all over again
I wish we could last
But above all,
I wish I were your best friend
Who knew everything
Who had a key to every door
Who could finish your sentences
The person you trusted with
Your heart
And never once had to wish for anything more
