But even if I could see you

    I would not recognize your face.

Long it's been since I've seen your emerald eyes

    thru my hallucinations of you

I remember my lips ached for your kiss,

    my body ached for your touch.

You're a storm washing over me-

    Words fall down as rain

Wash away the puddle I've become.

Faded Painting

She wanted to believe this rain was over.

She wanted to believe that this world wasn't cold,

But in this feeling she's been wading

& in this silence she believes

in the starlight she is bleeding-

it all fades out.


 

A strange territory this city has become,

A faded painting left behind.

in her eyes it's always been

And always it's in her smile.

Her breath on my neck I lie awake remembering-

leaves blowing around my feet.

& upon azure skies, I'll blaze her emerald gaze-

kiss the midnight stars for her

& breathe the shimmering world away

to rize in satellite.


 

Her eyes cast radiant guize-

Casting shadows upon the pavement

of my native Lincoln, Nebraska

where winds wash away her tears

to splash them upon my toes.
