Dreaming in black & white Bracing for a fight Chasing shadows through the night Trying to avoid all light For fear of being hated

Fighting immortals Men call fairytales Writing words with little meaning Trying to drown out the sunbeam gl… Radiating from within

In a desert land Reaching out my hand To an unknown love Carried by the wind Caught in a whirlwind

Dripping like honey Off your tongue Everything’s funny When I’m in your arms Running

Twirling in a dizzying array of wo… Held captive to the orchestra of t… When the icy breath of winter appr… My dismay is irreproachable Sleeping in the arms of slumber

Painting —Playing in the rain Dancing —In the bathroom mirror Praying

Knowing how to feel What more is there to know? Knowing how to entertain What must I do to ascertain The feeble heart?

Lifeless & alone Lying in a winter field of white My frost bitten skin Glistening in the light Lifeless & alone

Grasping at pipe dreams Something good Is never what it seems Riding a wave of discontent The sting of doubt unrelenting

Flirting w/a monster Speaking words so sinister Amber eyes gleaming Until I wail screaming Finger painting in condiments

I Am wind I am fire I am earth I am water The in between

You said you loved me But you love me in vain I can’t forget the things said I can’t forget what was done I’m permanently scarred

I listened but didn’t comprehend The meaning to my existence Is but an end To which there is no mean Gravitating towards starlight
