Fool's Love
04-30-1997

Beat me down
into the ground
steal my breath
and make me hell bound
I'll forget my life
I'll confuse what's right
I can even lose my mind
if that's what you like
drag me, beat me
if you're wanting, well then
just go ahead and use me
take my soul
take my life
cut off my hand
slowly with a dull knife
hit me with a two by four
have fun and torture me some more
abuse me and shove me aside

They Say
12-19-1997

They say if you look hard
you'll find your way back home
born without a friend
and bound to die alone.

They say that when you are alone
you'll think of things gone wrong

Wounded pride - wounded regard
Innocence disgraced - innoc… Continue

I look forward in this dream
gazing at fallen rainbows
singing to the sun.

Poetry all around
so carefree and joyful
music on your lips.

Drifting on the wind
the scent of lust
soft whispers caress.

Dancing in circles
violet eyes laughing
yet how can you still not guess.

Reflections
04-12-2001

Your eyes mimic the moon
so enchanted as I gaze
deprived of modern normality
you sulk in the shadows.
I spy you through the haze
that look in your eyes is so different from mine
the emotion there is clear and sharp
while everything else is fuzzy and undefined.
What is this? Are you here to replace me?
A stranger standing in front of me yet still so familiar
I look searchingly at the figure before me
then I realize I really don't know myself anymore
all this time I w… Continue
