Crisp and burnt
leaves
Litter my street.
Crunch.
Gentle and clean
flakes
Freeze on my yard.
Crunch.
Whining and pesky
mosquitoes
Land at my feet.
Crunch.
Stiff and dry
grass
Roasts in the sun
Crunch.

Empty yawns crawl through my lips
As the pale reflection of the moon teases my vision
Thin red snakes battle the whites of my eyes
The single digit hours tick by
Shadows trick my senses and send my pulse racing
Outside, the streets slumber away
Am I the only one awake?

My thoughts are so obscure
Like my soul.
Triangle
Even my guitar can't understand my feelings.
I met a girl at Starbucks yesterday
We ordered the same black coffee.
I think she might be the one.
Now if you'll excuse me,
I need a smoke break.

Thief
Give it back
Your greedy hands had no right to touch me
Your lying lips had no right to say you love me
I close my eyes and picture you
I cant sleep
You stole what was rightfully mine
You bought my innocence with false words
To think I ever trusted you
May no mercy be shed on your soul

I can't help but think
How pretty your face would look
After I smash it against the wall
Repeatedly.
And not to mention the wall
No longer so bare
Smeared with your blood
Combined with your tears.
Art.

Each breath I draw
It's all thanks to you
You are the light in my eyes
You are the blood in my veins
Body, heart, and soul;
All yours
I've known no love like this one
Eternity won't be long enough;
I'll still crave your touch
...

Zig zag
Controversy
White, black
Alternating
Unique
Simple
Fantastic design
Nature's fashion
Black, white
Extraordinary
Zebras

Each breath is icy
Numb, I float
My fingertips graze the distant stars
Awestruck I stare
Passing giant, wondrous worlds
No sense of time
I drift through this void
The sound of silence
Captivated
Blinded by cosmic delights
Marvels beyond my imagination
So serene
So beautiful
Who needs air?

I don't know which is sweeter
The tea we sip from these plastic cups
Or the gentle breeze that kisses our cheeks
The sun shines down on our rendezvous
You, me, and our collection of dolls
Their painted faces ever-smiling
We pretend we're all grown up
Our backyard becomes a palace
We are royalty
These are not toy cups and saucers
They are the finest china
And as we daintily sip our drinks, we giggle like children
Breaking the spell of make believe
Inside we go
Leaving our guests alone at the table
Unable to move without the aide of our imagination
Their cups are empty
Our yard is just a yard
We are children
Play time is over

I see vast, open fields
Green and pure
Lush with life
I see warm, inviting sunsets
Bleeding and swelling
Across the horizon
I see bright, shining stars
Twinkling and glowing
Dominating the sky
I see natural, elaborate beauty
Growing and radiating
All through your eyes.
