~Ese~

No great mind has existed without a touch of madness-Aristotle

I love this

record

But I can’t see

straight anymore

Lilac blossoms

In the

moonlight

That you

told me

You wanted

to get rid of

So you

gave it to me

You have

My whole body

came alive,

my body rocketfuel
You can make

better memories,

and reuse the frames

Let the rain wash

the sins

from this house

till there’s nothing

left standing

nothing left of yesterday

That's just

the way the sun

must shine
I suppose

The daisies

Are blooming again

White

Wild

Breaking from

The dirt

An eclipse

of the heart

Is coming on
A new way to go

A tied tongue

to match it
You slip

Out of my fingertips

Everytime

You run

Water

That never eases

The ache

I have forgotten

How sweet the air

Can be

Things

Better left unsaid

Thank god for that

I need

That touch

Of madness

My heart

Hurts

Yearning

Is too much

For me

Back home

to the high ground,

When the day

drifts away,

I feel alive

the colors tremble and lean into each other
Glowing embers

Burning hot

Burning slow

Washing it clean

sleep with angels

always

better things

will come

A page turning

solace in the fog

Trying to live

Without you

Is like one long

sleepless night

Teardrops

On the sand

Stain

But here we are

laying on

the same sand,

not the first house

I walked past today

if not for you

to help me see

Fate deals the cards,

but you gotta know

when to fold

I just want to see

you smile, my little Ese
But do

What you have to do

Whatever you face

I shall face
Every feeling

Every word
