Art Is The Artist
I'm laying on the floor
watching you throw acrylics at the canvas
It's ballet with horsehair brushes
and dirty stained cups of water
You don't even remember I'm here
I love to watch you paint
Mixing colors into something meaningful
You used to tell me that abstract was freedom
And as I pour words, I agree
It doesn't always mean something
Sometimes it just needs to look appealing
You mix blue and green
And move a line that looks random
But I know you've got some kind of plan
Hiding deep within the swirls
There are no words spoken
and Placebo plays through the
red splotched speaker
Without you, I'm nothing
I could watch you all day
For this is far more intimate then a strip tease
I can see your naked soul
and it is the most perfect thing I've ever known
I long to taste you yet again
You look back at me
Your face covered in little drops of paint
And the colors only brighten
that amazing world that is your taste
You smile, with paint makeup
I've never seen something so stunning
I pray this moment never ends
And I can live within the world
you create

dogs !! dogs !! dogs!!
"I feel like a dog, I cry like a dog
Matted mange and muzzled maw
With gnashing teeth that bite and gnaw
Hide under the couch with a tail between legs
Hackles raised, I curl my spine
Twisted and bent to comply the confines
It's pathetic and demeaning
To suffer this feeling
Desperately pleading at the foot of your throne
Begging and begging
For a glimpse of the bone"

I hold my breath
until my lungs ache,
praying another thought of you
doesn't cross my mind.
-
The pain is subsiding.
The anger is waning,
yet the thought of you
is still very much
unwelcome.
-
Little Icarus is spread like
ash
over the sea.
-
The burning is over,
the falling is done,
he's learned what it's like to hit the ocean
at whatever volecity you reach
falling from
'the top of the world,'
and it has all come to a
screeching...
-
-
-
-
-
hault.
-
-
-
-
-
Sprawled out against the ocean,
set adrift,
he stares up at what led him here:
The fly,
the fire,
the fall,
and even everything before;
and he can't help but to think...
This is it?
-
After all that...
The pleasure,
the pain,
everything outside and
in-between,
this is it?
-
Silence,
quiet stillness,
a dulling sunset,
shushing waters,
and the emptiness
that comes with being stranded out
in the middle of nowehere
with nothing in sight?
-So this is what starting over feels like?

I'm trying to become less
so it'll be easier for you to love me more.

Dancing
Listen, lover—loud and clear
comes caroling the choir
singing songs so sweet to hear,
like Orpheus’s lyre.
Let us listen; let us love.
Come now, we must seize this chance—
a choir sent from above,
all so we at last can dance.

denial isn’t a bad place to be
at least I’m happy
i want to believe she loves me
in my daydreams
i am her precious little one
held in her arms
but i can’t remember her touch
i just don’t know
she says her hands are cold
my chest is warm
imagining her hand in mine

"Under the Sun's Embrace: A Love by the Lake"
"Can I go where you go, forever and ever,
In this close embrace, let's endeavor.
Take me to a lake, beneath the sun's warm glow,
Watching ripples dance where pebbles go.
Cloud shapes we'll guess as they drift on high,
Beneath the surface, in our own world, we'll lie.
Kissing underwater, a love's gentle graze,
Drying hair in the sun's warm embrace.
We'll make flower crowns from humble weeds,
Hold hands in silence where tranquility feeds.
In our shared moments, with hearts in sync,
Comfort in togetherness, no need to overthink.
Content in each other's presence, so rare,
In the beauty of love, we find solace there.
Forever and ever, let this bond remain,
In this close embrace, our hearts will sustain."
