Waiting
Wasted Kisses
Whatever
Whispers
Wingless
Wrinkles At Age Ten



Waiting

lay in tattered blue cords of nylon

smoke from my cigarette rises and gleams

while rays of light reflect

a marbled ceiling of nicotine


stripped to pinks of blush and bashful

naked: just like love would be

turning my head to sounds of nothing

just a suffocated memory


banged my head on the piano yesterday

couldn't find the notes to clair de lune

decided there was something more to me

than waiting here in neverland for you


fog is thick of wood and spices

music droning out thoughts of change

somehow here content with nothing

and believing pain would fade


shudders of the faren-heights

faeries whisper aroon to me

crazy lass i know you're in there

come and play instead of drinking tea





Wasted Kisses

Behind closed eyes I've waited

So passionately I loved you with all of my heart


Inflicted pain is still erecting this feeling of hurt

A breth of fresh air is what you exhaled

Into my desperate lungs


And no feeling of regret shall ever enter my soul

For every kiss was provoked by me

And so no admonishment is made on myself

For doing so


But still, I

wasted kisses

I should've saved for someone else


Pearls were dropped from your mouth to mine,

And, now broken, drip poison into my heart


Your arms once held this homely body of mine

And I felt safe and protected

From those who sought to harm me


But still, I

wasted kisses

I should've saved for someone

more deserving


Roses handed from your palms to mine

Are now wilted, never to bloom again


I closed my eyes so tightly!

Only to discover you never closed yours at all.





Whatever

so you've got your perfect

your girl, your life, whatever,

and you say you just live

and you tell me to be careful

there are bad people out there

but you aren't here to remind

me anymore


come with me to mars

i promise it's not very far

i don't want another war

it's such an easy way to choose

to hide a life inside yourself

another battle you lose


so you're delightful and lovely

you're love, you're me, whatever,

and i say just give

and i tell you to be careful

cause we bad people don't care

but you aren't here for lectures,

dear, anymore





Whispers

We had a moment,

just one moment

where the purity

of life came rushing


I heard you whisper

upon the petals

of a rose once

drowned before it bloomed


You didn't know it

when it hit you

when life was upon

you at it's fullest


Or when I loved you

I truly loved you

and you knew I

felt it from the inside





Wingless

Assumed love,

trapped by jealousy

Long-sought heart beckons,

though the victim is tied down


Once concealed notion

of everlasting promises


Free to fly,

yet wingless


Suspended in air

as time moves on


Surviving,

perhaps purely by will,

Living one breath at a time

without reason





Wrinkles At Age 10

You can't take back all of the

things you've proclaimed


If a heart-beat is life then I am

but a cavern for your requiem


Human hands are wrought with

worry and age


A mediocre copy of you

we are nothing but debtors


Don't turn around

keep your eyes open wide


Wrinkles that will never

trespass those sweet scarlet lips


Deep crimson sheeks are now pale,

for life was drained and her

blood now lies still within her veins
