The embodiment of my love,
You fit around me like a glove.
So tight, warm, and sensual,
You are nothing less than habitual.
The every thought of your skin
Is an undeniable mortal sin.
And, I would choose to burn,
If your undying love I could earn.
That, so softly, my fingertips
Could eternally trace your lips,
I could create heaven on earth,
An existential rebirth.
To you alone I do belong.
For your touch, I lustfully long.
To drink of your flesh once again,
And eternally bathe in your sin.
You are my shadow and my light.
In your dark armor, my glorious knight.
You are my dreams and my reality,
My universal eventuality...
What is,
What was,
What never will be,
Eternally, your sin caressing me...
A flutter of the heart
Your lips across my skin
A light touch of fingertips
Trailing where you've been
The glitter in your eyes
Your hand on my hips
The feel of your skin
The taste of your lips
The strength of your arms
The warmth of your embrace
The thousand different sorrows
This night can erase
to cry or
not to cry,
to die or
not to die
to live or
not to live,
i now know
i have nothing left to give
if madness is what this is,
then mad i wish to be,
for your definition of madness
is my definition of me...
or so i once
so adamantly thought
but, conviction is now
replaced with distraught
so now i question,
is me who truly i wish to be?
for such madness
could be the end of me
oh, to be like
another, any other
and not know this pain,
this unbearable smother
madness is
a double-edged sword
a brilliance and suffering
so often ignored
to drown in a moment,
a concept, a thought,
is a penance
in which i am perpetually caught
oh, how i long
for that conceptual bliss
but, as is my way,
i am caught in my own remiss
and now i exist
between nothingness and hell
a place that i unfortunately
know far too well
Someday I will be right,
Someday I will be sane.
But, until that day,
I am imprisoned in my brain.
Screw you world,
And screw you all...
Not once have you ever cared
I am imprisoned by your wall.
You live your lives
Oblivious to anything but you.
Never once questioning
The prison you imbue...
To live by your standards
Or to not live at all
Is how you have erected
Your impermeable wall.
I can't live by your standards.
So, I faithfully take my drugs
To eradicate my "dysfunctions",
Like pestering little bugs.
No, I am not normal.
And, perhaps, I am not sane.
But, I prefer my dysfunctions
To your Stepford same.
But, to live in your world
And ever escape my bubble,
I must squash my dysfunctions,
That which you call trouble.
I take my pills
Just like a good little girl
To imprison my demons
And live in your world.
mortality has bored me so.
peons running to and fro,
as if things so little truly mattered
their life so pitiful and tattered...
one day, one year, one decade,
and eventually one day to fade.
and at that point, each one pathetic
and not even one infinitely poetic.
to live a life so infinitely obscure
is an eventuality i fear to endure.
my life so endlessly morose and dark,
eventually none will question my mark.
i refuse this mortality given to me,
as if an inevitable sullen decree...
within my words and within my deeds
will i find my perpetual immortality.
for within my heart truly lies
the essence of life and it never dies.
give me a life beaten and battered,
and i will give you a soul completely untattered.
i can show you a soul of plague and blight,
and i can show you a soul of infinite light.
mar me, and beat me, and cast me aside,
and let me show you a soul that takes it in stride.
i know your darkness, i know your pain,
and should you look, i know your bane.
one day i will accomplish, one day i will prevail,
and one day, without question, i will cast aside your veil...
I have found that
My muse escapes me.
All the while,
It assaults and rapes me.
Or, perhaps, it is not
My muse at all,
But my own self
Expounding my fall.
Oh, how I wish for a muse
Of innocence and beauty,
Not one of oft calloused
And mindful failing duty.
Oh, how it harps
On my soul and my brain,
The perils of my failings
And my inescapable bane.
What a freedom
And liberty it must be,
To have a muse
Of unquestionable beauty.
To feel the passion
Of beauty personified.
And, be able to embrace that
As your poetic guide.
All is not so sad,
And all is not lost.
Once in a few blue moons,
In beauty I am lost.
Once it was more
Than it ever is now,
Perpetually lost in passion
Did my muse allow.
But, passion has its cost,
And abandon has its price,
To live unremittingly
Merely by the roll of the dice.
My muse has learned its lesson
And, perhaps, so too have I.
Life is only chance when one
Gambles only on the roll of the die.
But, one more roll
I do now seek,
No matter how ignorant,
No matter how weak.
Just one little one
Is all that I ask.
One last passion,
And one last task.
A passion so grand
And so unabated,
That a lifetime felt
Could never be satiated.
I will except your bane
And your unending blight,
But give me this one
Beautiful, relentless fight...
Existence, existence
Is boring me so.
This dull existence
Is all we know.
Day in, day out,
Always the same,
Watching the moon
Wax and wane...
Always waiting
For that day...
Watching as every
Tomorrow turns today.
Tomorrow will be better,
Or such is the lie,
As tomorrow becomes today
And we never try.
Patience is a virtue,
Or so they say...
Merely an excuse,
And a pathetic cliche.
In such a light,
Patience is a vice,
Like those sadistic wheels
For those sad little mice.
Today is
What tomorrow was,
And another day lost
Just because...
Stop this madness,
And stop this way,
Today is the tomorrow
Of yesterday...
