to the abandoned

with broken hearts
and shattered dreams
and trampled smiles
and worried gleams
in eyes like diamonds
in eyes like honey
in eyes like forests
in eyes like sunny
days and moon nights
just as we've always been
until someone can see
the things we've seen
and want to share
but are too afraid
who've been forgotten
who've been betrayed.
ask her for a hero.

last resolution

Send me a train. 


And let it smash through me slowly, dispersing my fragments amid the free air like particles of beautiful, broken dust. 


I'll wait. Here. On the tracks. 


Strike fear in me until I reach my final moment.


Then release the particles that have been so long undiscovered into the wide open melodies.


Maybe I've got the wrong address, but you're the only one who driftingly understands.

i cannot have a new post

there are bitter things that only i know
not even you
my confidants
strangely disappearing,
easier than writing
lonelier than crying
more damaging than lying
further away than flying
an alternative to dying
yet we have not lived.
what have we, then,
have we not life?
this is my bitterness,
in a way i wish no one could inquire
nor a commentary
nor a passing condolence.
like birds in spring
one to the other
all together
again, again, again,
flying to a bliss,
a mirth,
a utopia.
leaving me once friends are made.
don't they know i'm still in need?!
yet they know
more so than myself
that no wings can lift this emptiness...
to be filled would be to fly.
