soot on a ceramic plateYour eyes are grasssoot on a ceramic plate
Sometimes bright and fresh, Decorated with diamonds You stole from the sky when you were young And desperate.
Sometimes dry and dull, Scarred with burns from that time When you stared at the sun for too long, Hoping for rain.
Sometimes brittle and brown,
Sometimes strong and sound,
Sometimes in a daisy crown -
Always on my mind.

Just Another HitYou’re just a drug I need to get out of my system, An addiction I need to kick.Just Another Hit
Easier said than done... Day one and I’m already feeling the aches and pains, The craving running through my veins, The cold sweat of separation.
Your smile would quickly sooth
A longing of your own creation.
More than once, I’ve found myself crawling back - Subconsciously conscious of my pathetic state.

Fortune TellingI was walking down the street To the nearest coffee shop I saw a magnolia blossom on the ground And IFortune Telling
Picked It
Up. No one else was around
As I examined the bloom As I felt a silken petal between
My fingers And
Plucked
It. Despair.
Hope.
Despair again. Hope again. Yes. No. Yes. One. Two. Three. He loves me.

One More TimeHow many different ways Can I say this, Before it becomes Redundant – A broken record A bad cliché – Before it eats at me Until there’s nothing left.One More Time
Trivial it may seem But my skin is not scarred For nothing. Ridiculous as it may be, It weighs on my mind constantly, Like poison Seeping through my thoughts.
Help me to realize My worth does not lie In vanities. And soon enough I won’t even have to worry about them – They’ll fade away Like flowers past their season A

Instead
You were a welcome mistake An accident of convenience A mess of crashing lips, desperate fingers, shaking hips and dirty laundry

The Invisible StrandDid you see that? It's like a reflection in the eye. A blue deeper than sky.The Invisible Strand
I walked there. See it? The invisible strand? Beneath the fluttering banner.
The ocean is a fierce lover. I've loved her since my birth. My legs never felt as steady, On anchored strands of earth.
It's a dark sky, now. An infinite mirror of glimmering points. A reverie of awe, A frieze of freedom, A story of a thousand lives.
The stars are a distant mistress, That I will never know. This illusion is a small comfort. Desire only grows
