Some poetry
can we begin with the end?
i mean, they always say starting is the hardest part, its all dominos after that; i beg to differ, says i starting is easy, it's the end that gets me wondering what to do, terrified of love running for all the wrong reasons, unsure of you and i, and the origins of this universe, and the horizon, and a world in the curve of my eye; a parallel one, no doubt, far beyond this crude image, but not without opportunity, a chance at rebirth in the fiery nucleus of life, that celestial forge where life sprung headlong out of white-hot flames onto a fresh page of parchment, writ into every line stretching to the horizon greedily devouring skies of a better hue than this, this blue hue that burns anew, searing the depths with light, reaching towards birth, towards iris, and hope. water cobbler water is a sure sign that life is pure and perfection is possible, that you and i are not right, and that words mean nothing. letters cobbled together in meaningful orders only demonstrate the shallowness of human emotions, and the way wind always seems to sting me like silence. celestial rendezvous sometimes i stare at the moon, shrouded in darkness, cryptic, elliptic, like you and the way it always seems to disappear without a trace with the first rays of sun, -into the sky to dance with celestial goddesses. until eternity tongue-tied you and i, wide-eyed, staring at the sky; leaving you breathless, holding up the horizon with your smile, leaving me speechless, only to marvel at your eyes, sparkling in the moonlight. thanks for looking, there are a few more on my webpage if you're desperately in need of a fix.
