Book preview

With all the wonderous colours

I stare in complete wonder

Fuck, where did you go?

You just slipped away

What am I supposed to do?

Hold on as it all slips away

I saw your soul shimmer

Now things are getting dimmer

With your return I blush with joy

Hold onto my hand

As we wander through this

It will never end

So I rise up and grasp

Your beauty so untold

Give me one last chance

As I begin sifting through

Now the rising sun

Meets us in the morning

I dust off the cobwebs

And put it all back together

It was her eyes as usual

That captured my wandering glance

A stunning lost soul

Wandering on the shores of oblivion

Then we kissed

And everything disappeared

You See Me for the First Time

I met Ebony by the Lagoon

She had streaks of ivory in her hair

I talked as long as I could, rambling

With the ghost skeleton keys

An army of disgrace

Following my footprints

A drop of water off a flower

I keep my keen eye upon

Will our dalliance become more?

Let's see what's in store

I find you burning by the shore

I wrap you up so as to feel assured

I see those tears waiting to fall

It will be a deluge to confront us all

Mixed emotions will set us free

Hmm... wait until we're hugged by a tree

We sit on the ground

And look into each other's eyes

Now you see me for the first time

As I too look into your soul

Where do we go from here?

Into an amusement park?

Picking flowers?

Or getting totally wasted

Whatever fits best I say

Where Do We Begin From Here?

There is no one there

No one to help or to be helped

In any way

You must surrender

And find your own way

Somewhat battled scarred and dreaming

I walk out onto the ledge

And I look straight down

The fear is indescribable

Traps and fevers and misfortunes

It is all consuming

My face is stained with tears

The personality
