His blood was red. 
But she always knew
he was red.

Through white window panes,
I stare into the night
Away in the distance
The moon shines so bright
 
And faintly I hear
That familiar sound
Of cars passing by
And an old basset hound

Subsiding to his knees, transfixed.
His heart gashed agape by incognizant blade.
Blood disgorging from him, a living person.
Gasping, praying for air, air concluded to be unconditional.

Neither victim
or survivor
From now on
I'll be a fighter
So tired from
being on the run
Drinking and drugs
are no longer
fun

I studied the rain drops glide down the glass of the window.
I voluntarily let the nostalgia pound at my chest.
With every aching memory, I finally shed the tears that were trying to evaporate instead of pour out.
Eventually, the window and I had the same amount of water drip downward upon us.
I am the window.
Still and innocently being pounded with the various weather.

I wonder of the many things I've come to see
Within my dreams
The lessons learned 
The people I meet
The feelings I feel
The emotions that seep
Beyond the veil

In this world time flies by
In ours its non existent
Looking into your eyes
Past present future
Are all current
I see you
I see your soul
Beautiful couldn't describe it

Wind blowing
Trees sway
The smell of the air
Brings back sweet memories
Falling back in time
Feelings of past lives
Reminiscent love of when you were mine
Even though I feel the chill

I am human, made from your love.
I am human, Divine as can be.
I am human, a vessel in your name.
I am human, lost and insane.

Why I Cried

You asked me why I cried 
It is because the day I was born 
was the day that I died 
And the day you shared with me your strife 
was the day I was brought back to life 
I assure you my words are not in vain 
when I say before you was only pain

From out of the woodwork you came 
knowing nothing much but my name 
My being has not been the same 
as you engulfed me with your flame 
That fire cannot keep me tame 
Perhaps this rapture was your aim
