Achlys

I have no need for sleep,

no more than you have a need for me. 

no more than the wind blows,

I feel lost in your web.

I do not sleep,

simply because my dreams.

In my dreams you appear night after night, 

and night after night brings me to your face.

I wish I could feel your warm embrace once more.

I wish I could hold your hand and not feel numb.

I miss the me you once...

KARM

You kiss my lips,

I've drowned in your sea many times.

The endless waves of us,

Strong and steady.

I feel your heart as I wonder,

Is it the drugs?

Or my love of your song, 

The song of the sea or the song your eyes sing when they look into mine.

I often wonder,

Is it you that makes my heart beat as fast as the wind on a fall morning,

or is it simply the thought of you...

A sad poem

A drag to numb the pain,

A thought to kill the brain,

All the same. 

A shot to fill the liver,

A broken adult was once a happy child.

A child with stars in their eyes, 

A adult with drugs and liquor in their veins.

All the same to me,

Just different ways to numb the pain.
