Somewhere between a heartbeat and a kiss
A tender moment lost, easily missed
A single universe to discover
Gentle touch like no other

Under My Skin
I wrote this poem and published it to MySpace on March 2, 2008 (Yes I momentarily went out sequence, sue me bitches!) Looking at the words and thinking back to what was going on in my life at that time I am sure I wrote this about Nate.
Can you feel my pricks on your skin
Purging your truths and staring deep within
Embracing your demons that dwell
And feeling your heart's song swell
Pleading misers beg you to stay behind
Clutching your coat under the grey sky
Digging deep in the scars you hide
Chewing on your dreams at night
I will not leave you alone
My spirit soars in your mist
And I have walked alone to make you feel
Dug deep within your skin to make you real
It tastes too sweet I can't believe
In too deep I don't want to leave
No one has ever seen this side of me
I walk in your rose garden to see you
Within You
Written and published on March 22, 2008, "Within You" is more like a song. I had a random melody and beat in my head when I wrote the words
Digging deep within you
Feeling you on in the inside
Feels like tonight too
You give yourself to me
Who would have guessed it
Everything you owned
Laying on my doorstep
Laid bare for me to see
Unfettered and unclean I see
Everything you don’t want me to see
You try to cover it up your heart
Afraid I’ll tear it apart
But I really want to paint it red
And kiss you just the way I did
Standing on the ledge of oblivion
I’m on my knees trying to let you in
I’m scared I won’t belong to what you hold
So dear so near and so clear what you want
Unfettered and unclean I see
Everything you don’t want me to see
You try to cover it up with your heart
Afraid I’ll tear it apart
But I really want to paint it red
And kiss you just the way I did
You will certainly see
What few have seen
And if that terrifes you I’m sorry
But I won’t back down from what feel
It’ll be alright I swear what I feel
Is real I’ll cross the line from the unreal
Unfettered and unclean I see
Everything you don’t want me to see
You try to cover it up your heart
Afraid I’ll tear it apart
But I really just want to paint it red
And kiss you just the way I did
Kiss you just way I did
Your soul is beautiful….

Things have settled into the mist
Wide open in the abstract lives of us all
Unknown, unbroken and unsolved
A riddle, a puzzle, your heart
Trust fractured and the fault is mine
I work to regain I miss the crook
Of your arm and the warm of your skin
Drinking in deep your moments of sin
This was one of the first poems I wrote about my first major fight with Nate.
Random shitty poetry

Washed away by the tides of time
Black on black without reason or rhyme
Onto the blank canvas we faded
No imprints no color nothing dated
Echoes of laughter in my mind remain
Dark visions of love's twisted cruel stain
Absence of Grace

Why has the sky turned black?
Will there ever be any turning back
From this confusion and consternation
Gripping me holding me choking me
The grey sky taunts me from afar
With its little sunny vacation brochures
Now I'm falling down and here you stand
Watching me from the pedestal I admire
Yet bitterly detest you upon, in envy I bathe
Once it was here, all together all bright
Then I kissed the darkness it all waived goodnight
So I wave to myself from my perch upon the lofy
State of Affairs
December 3, 2007
It's business as usual in the land of the free
A glossy, sugar-coated blinder's disease
A dark, dangerous path we walk down
Where nobody knows how to turn around
The mirror's cracked and the light unreflecting
Of the foreboding darkness that's been coming
Under the iron fist beneath the cracks
Beating the unthinking blue and black
Fires paint the skyline crimson with rage
Hate bubbles over like blood on the page
Insidious poisons squash and kill our dreams
The storm clouds gather on the horizon green
