Sapphire Eyes

Your face appears to me amidst a dream
Sapphire eyes blinking, hot stars in the night sky
Peach lips part and you whisper softly
"You should open up more"
Your voice like a calm spring breeze

I didn't know what you meant
But I don't think you meant like this
No, never like this.

I open up and I bleed
All over my mother, she screams that I'm staining the floor
I open up and I bleed
All over my father, he shouts to get a plaster

I hear their voices
My insides coat the bannisters of our empty hallway
The oily red staining the brown, turning Maroon
I've always liked this colour I think to myself
But it makes my parents really mad

I hear them again
"Get a towel" my mother screams
Is it to stem the bleeding I wonder?
No. She starts scrubbing the floor.

I slump down. I see stars.
I hear my mother yelling
"What have you done?!"
What have I done?

Where are your sapphire eyes?
I blink my eyelids closed
I'll see them again once I sleep

Where are your sapphire eyes?
I feel your peach lips upon my cheek
As butterflies dance over our skin

I see your eyes.
Your sapphire eyes.

Twisted Love Affair

We fell in love in a drug infused haze

The track marks on our arms our only destination

We would lie in that bed lost for days

Entranced by your penetrating gaze

Our love was like an unending sedation

We fell in love in a drug infused haze

My friends they told me you were a phase

But with you I finally found salvation

We would lie in that bed lost for days

As I close my eyes, my love for you it stays

You were my heroin and I gave into temptation

We fell in love in a drug infused haze

Without you there is no life, my body decays

I’ll press the needle into my arm, my final aspiration

We would lie in that bed lost for days

Constant visions of you my mind replays

Picturing your body burning, the cremation

We fell in love in a drug infused haze

We would lie in that bed lost for days

Follow Me Out Of The Dark

Take my hand I’ll lead you out of the dark

And follow me through the shades of my soul

Take my hand and then we will disembark

Follow me, I'll rebuild you, make you whole

Take my heart and I will show you my love

Tell me your secrets and I’ll tell you mine

I love you more than the heavens above

You are my heart, I am forever thine

I find you in the darkest of places

I can see you where the light does not reach

You’re in part of me, all of the spaces

For you to follow me, I do beseech

Follow me out of the dark, my always

I am ever immortal in your gaze

Poetry In Motion

You are the iron in my veins
You are the smell of the rain
You are poetry in motion, my dear
and I have never been so clear

You are the spaces in between
You are the one thing I need
You are poetry in motion, my love
and you are all I can think of
