Life eats you
Like a loaf
of sliced bread.

You a sacrifice,
A thought, a slice

What a slow
way to die,
Thought after slice
after breath.

When the sun downs & fades,
who is there to remember?

When the sky with rain is grey,
who then blues your October?

Who untangles the skyline,
when night unfolds into basalt?

Who's there at the baseline,
who pencils what a star exalts?

Every sight an early morning
Every sight a dew for mourning
Every road a clear clean stream
Every drop a soothing sight
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every step a pencil of care
Every step a shade of crystal
Every blur close to mist
Every dead night missed
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every sound a seep of silence
Every silence a snack of calm
Every breath a year that ebbs
Every thought nostalgia
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every flower that springs
Every moisture a window brings
Every said word unheard
Every tear that's not coming
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every gaze a paradise
Every gaze a lonely place
Every broken soul spattering
Every loved soul sputtering
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every flurry a squirm of time
Every one a leaf that greens
Every drop that confects
Every window that kisses back
Every human wants a day
That rains

Every day a life that goes
Every day I know, I know
Every sun all with sadness fades
Every human wants a day
That rains

I had a dream once,
you were mine
alone in a hutch.

The world was vast,
so vast it flooded
until we drowned.

And that's the thing
about these dreams.
They're always dark,

Until your eyes open.

And so my eyes opened,
and you were there again,
where I couldn't find you.

Oh beautiful world,
Where's mine
I'm tired of pretending?

So she saw, sympathy, a fine-tune of empathy, was her only path to forgiving her faint, however harming, former self.

It must be light,
the dust that settles;
It must be ripe,
the blood that rattles;
It must be life,
the scar that nettles;
It must be right,
the love that tattles.

I cannot forbear but feel blue for the ones that've loved me before you.

I used to know how to feel for things, until loving you made me learn how to sacrifice borne for skin.

So now, I hope I will love you more than I have ruth for the both of us.

"Because in that regard, nothing is as beautiful as eyes of concern, eyes that pierce, eyes that see through reason, eyes that see through effect, eyes that see through flaws, eyes beyond mirrors and reflection."

She was a suit & a tree,
A cup of coffee.
My pen and the stew,
The rain and the dew.
The day and her sunshine,
The reign of the alpine.
I thought the candles would
Last forever: They died.

Moon,
When I see you;
Moon,
When I kiss you,
Blushes.
And there's a witness,
Moon,
There's a witness,
At least one,
When the fire ignites.

This is sunrise.
In her brown eyes,
Where the sky flies.
Where the night dies.
