He so said
his byes slowly.
Something danced
in the wild squally wind,
And with her inborn reflex
she was the first to leave.
But my, how she hated
watching the scene.

But I've always thought
Everybody is an island.
Frequented by storms,
Immersed in a sea
Of aesthetic mentation.
& when you explore me,
I should be grateful.

How does it feel?
To lose the one
You never had?
What more the one
You thought you had?
But what worse
The one you've held?

Let's drive to nowhere
Through the dry desert,

Play us in the car radio,
I'll turn it off when you fall asleep.

We'll stop just to watch the night,
And laugh it off with the hyenas.

Tell me we're never coming back.

Time machines,
Sailors on tarmacs.
Red, red skies,
And the then you.
Things that exist not,
But only fringes.

#ts #fg

And we're some clueless truth
dancing in the light of the night,
bribing our own imaginations for fear,
while believing in that cold hug of pity,
–that tale, that we can be our own suns.

#ts #nss #je

When the sun peeks through shade,
Where's my only moon when I need her?

When my heart begins to crusade,
Where's the wind when I'm just a fur?

Country songs
and quiet nights,
A colored journal
on hazy twilights,
I wish you could hold
the hand of my eyes.
Can you go across
the shoreline with me,
to find me again?

#ts #fg

I thought I saw you
yesterday.
Turns out,
You're in every blink
of thought,
Every flitter of life.

#ts #fg #je

Into the night
Far gone.
Like a kite
To the moon
Alone.

#ts #fg #de

There was one
A butterfly,

There was one
A battered one.

A sole firefly,
And a soft eye;

And you my dear one,
Before the sun's gone

Will find one.

-[Fly little one]
