Inside Out

I woke in the orange mist of Autumn
The gentle gaze of her eyes
Wrapped me in the sunrise of sweet citrus
It rose to wake the unknowns of the city
The confused
The undecided
Desiring velvet kisses
To blur selective reasoning
easing the pain
I wonder
Rub this nonsense out of my mind lovely
Time is thin
Gluten for mistakes
It will recover
Hold still
We will plan rendezvous by the grassroots
Wild flowers, Daisy's and daffodils all but roses

avoiding cliché

Cuz this is different
Give me a chance
Allow me, my love, to whisper my secrets into your harpsichord heart
Out of your veins
Forget them
Forget me not
Cuz past is not what I was
Yet what I've become
So love it
Adore it
treasure what filth churned precious



We will run the crowds in Barcelona

In the bed of curiosity


Ill part my hair sideways
Breathe heavy by night hour
Stare to the dim of lamplight
Draw out the skulls of my desire
Illustrated burden when dipping the memories in black ink
Burned onto white surface
Designing a new look

Observe
I've buttoned your eyes To my shirt pocket
Sewn your veins onto clean sleeves
Untied the strings to you harpsichord heart
And left them loose around my collar

Every chill ever felt turn warm
Bundled up in reminiscence
Smiling at our loose threads around my neck
Responsible for playing all the wrong tunes

  1. "Allow me, my love, to whisper my secrets into your heart" - this is really sick. so are the last two stanzas under Observe; they're beautiful as much as they are morbid.
