And forget all that they’d learned.

From the uncertain depths of diplomacy
rose up this Kraken
his massive mouth spouting
and no one knows the ocean's mind
or the depths that it can sink to.
In the ascendancy he is
scornful of harpoons
the hide impenetrable
so, all you travellers on the seas
and on your land and in the air
remember to take some extra care
as others legitimize those loony tunes.

My Story | Splintered Soul | Complete Meal | Unison |Fragments
Long ago, my heart was shattered,
Scattered all across the land,
I was left alone to build the puzzle
With my own two hands
On my journey I have found that
Every person that I meet,
Has something deep inside of them- My heart, a part of me
And so, I chose to live without,
To let the pieces go,
To share with them life's beauty,
While I live on in their souls.

My Misery |Uncertainty
How can I tell her that I love her?
How can I show her my true feelings?
If the words “I Love You” are dwarfed compared to what I feel.
Not even all the jewelry and roses of the world could equal her beauty.
How can I describe to her?
That every time I see her my surroundings cancel out.
She is my center of attention,
That for her my heart aggressively pounds.

Echo
Thoughts are heavy
in my head,
feeling a familiar
kind of dread.
The fog crowds,
absorbs all thought.
The half moon hangs low,
echoes a perfect glow.
It's dark inside my heart
when I feel all the parts,
I fall apart.

Waiting to Die
I used to reside in the palace of Hyde,
not too far from Nob Hill,
they kicked me out in mid-July,
but I know I'm not ill.
I know I'm down and we all came to be,

I'll get better, I'll get it together.
I won't just be another hopeless tree

Sitting there reading a book,
She looks so beautiful,
She's Lost in a fantasy world

Not cold
But cool enough to justify her oversized jacket,

Must be a cliffhanger,
Cars drive by
She doesn't break from the lines
Cars drive by I can't look away
She's lost in a fantasy world

"I trust you" you said

The pain won't go away
Your words, your touch, once loving and warm became calculated and detached
Doubt, fear and shame took hold of you
You lost faith
You saw no way out of where you were
No way but to run away from me
You never believed I could be real, that we could be real...
That it was too good to be real
