Literature Text
Looking into mirrors I see your face;
You are watching me from behind a sea.
My mind circles around holding your grace,
Though I know that it is not meant to be.
Trembling fingers reach out to touch your skin
In spite of grasping but the mirror's face-
The sea swallowed you with an ugly grin,
Your body melted in its cold embrace.
You reach out trying to clasp my pale hand
A severed world dangling on a frail thread.
The flood carried you to the promised land,
Washed over you, like the fate you've met.
Though I yearn more than anything to live on,
My heart's cold since my twin is gone.

Black Hole
Your sadness is great, and mine
a heretic.
In a delirium for answers
I'm driven by your inquisition
to the far reaches of reason.
My time is short, but it won't hurt
when I awaken and you swallow me --
I'm on borrowed time, with a
passion to tread the labyrinth
of dissections and Byzantine tortures.
Perhaps I overlook a price paid;
having squandered my investments
while building upon such bravado.
In the solar eye, the un-righted are
puttied rot on every facade, the blight that
deepest night softens by its sullen beauty.
I draw what strength I can in service
to its will; the darkness between --

I'm Just A Poet
I'm just a poet
Stringing together words
In a way that tries to force you to feel,
To understand what I feel.
I'm just a manipulator
Gaining recognition by
Warping what you understand
Trying to change your emotions
Till they fit my own.
I'm just an instigator
Using my words
To try and lead you along a path
That was created in anger
And fueling your passion to follow it
Until you can't even remember
Why you followed this way.
I'm just an interpreter
Translating your feelings into words
While ignoring the very fact
That in doing so
I'm ruining the very thing
That made these feelings so powerful
But I don't care

Good Morning
"Good Morning"
I read those two words aloud
Imagining your voice
Your lips whispering
Them gently into my ear
And then I'd smile
And say "Good Morning" too
As I'd let myself remember
Just how much i loved you
But now I look down
And all I see are two measly words
Sent from your fingers
Instead of your lips.
And while I tell myself
Those two words are enough
That your love and mine
Can traverse a hundred miles
A thousand miles
And still appear just as strong
Just as pure
I can't
And I worry, I fear
That my love may not
Be enough to keep you happy
And that one day
Just the memory of you
Won't be enough
To keep my tears away.
And every time
