Drinking My Wine

Drinking the ice wine I find
Taking away any warmth inside
You're such a mystery of non-existence
Clever at keeping your distance
I resent any feeling from my heart
the yearning cries out in the dark
Wanting love and lust to hide away
Go to the death bed so that I may
be at peace in my rest of lies
Yet you step into my eyes
And gone are my defenses.
Standing so close I burn
You turn and walk out my door
And here I go again
Drink down the ice wine
Stopping my time
It beats
Beats
Gone.

Unfound

I want to capture you
who ever you are
and bind you to my star.
I want to dazzle you
and bewitch you
to have a chance to kiss you.
Just once
maybe twice or a thousand times
I want to be taken by you
who ever you may be.

Dreamer

My dream lover a ghost of many costumes

How I long ... How I lie transfixed under a deep night sky

She keeps my secrets as she keeps my sex

What hopes she gives me in my despair

I try not to betray the closeness

Left alone I would fade away at dawn.

Moon Drain

A wandering silhouette of black by the moonlight
I am suffering from the bite of loneliness
I try not to show it with my weak and weary eyes
Nobody near tries to save the sad beast from the lies
they tell to protect themselves from the dark dark night
Dawn breaks will I wake or will I sigh as my eyes say
goodbye.

Vegas House

Brush the sky clouds away
The land shows blue and grey
Hear Liberace play
Roll the dice..roll the dice
Pay the price to live the life
Cheap chips, dancing chicks
Piano pool staying cool
hot tunes laughter rules
Come wait by the white house
Birds sing finding us dancing
Like a pale day dream.

Tattooed Words

The beauty of a person
Worth many words unspoken
Genuine feelings of special flowers
Growing there for hours
Beneath the deep layers
Tucked away in one's private skin
Displayed without a person within
What needed touch is it waiting for?

The Job

I quit...I QUIT!!!
Having mindful fits
not giving a shit
walking away now
not caring how
life's little curveballs
strikes me down deep
Red eyes shouts fly
Unreasonable demands
I scream out loud I QUIT!
Why should you chastise
You tired old shrew
Meaningless SCREW YOU!
Paint me black
I'm never coming back!
