Black WingsThe raven of iniquity has seen a dove of purity, and ever since that day he cannot fly.Black Wings
Black wings on the wind finding waterless clouds; broken feet that cannot find the ground.
Wild waves of the sea churn up the foam of their regret, and shame begets pain, conceiving uselessness.
Counterfeit comfort conceals complacent emotions, while an ocean of desire sees the sunrise of devotion.
A small taste of heaven is given to swine; a small section of the infinite, to time.
She is too holy to be known as mine.
Bondage to DecayI'm trying to discern. I want to learn. I end up burning with the rest. I can breathe under the water but the fire is the test. Under the curse; my heart perverse; my spirit eternally blessed. I beg for strength to run this race but all my body wants is rest.Bondage to Decay
So as you wash me in your everlasting
rain, and when you feel my heart begin to drift away, and when my feelings
forget their place: Break me from these chains.
I've lived for so long dodging raindrops but my clothes are soaking wet. I've crossed the country on these train &nbs
Last WordsA wolf of the steps, with the last of his breath, mutters ignorant words with emotional depth and recedes to the shadows he weaves with all that he has left: fatigue, intrigue, doubt, and belief. Blinded by grief on the verge of relief...possibly. Of possibilities and possums lying prostrate in the street--dead, and yet I wait for them to get back on their feet...to return to me. Of people and pigeons, the dungeons theyLast Words
live in and the subways they share. Of
natural integrity, naked, bare. Of happiness and ever

It's time to turn around and realize what
you have always known, and to utilize the tides of time allowing you to grow. Blessed with so much, so much squandered; lusting
life and prone to wander, found yourself still living all alone.
You have been shown the Path, you cannot turn back now, there's no escaping such a vow! There's
no complacency allowed, you are to win or lose out
loud and if the Truth cannot be found, you seek her
out.
It's time to burn the ground and seek the sky and bid your fears to show, and time to realize what
just an acquaintanceIt costs 39 cents to say goodbye, 39 cents to say goodbye, I had these prosaic notions that I would slap you with these words,just an acquaintance
a solitary sterile typed piece of paper with these words,
falling from the envelope into your hands, these words:
It costs 39 cents to say goodbye.
And then I remember the countless hours in addition,
The sorrow and self pity we both used as ammunition,
And against your masochistic silence, this eventual sedition. And I … wonder at the massive cost of eventual goodbyes. I wonder at the colossal toll of incremental lies.
It was all for

Fly, the Dream and the ChildAs a child, I looked upon the sky, Sometimes, when it saw my misery, it empathized, shading me from the rays, Sometimes, when it saw me cry, it began to weep with the falling rains, Sometimes, when it saw my hatred, it roared, echoing to the guiltiest of ears, And sometimes, when it saw me smile, it cleared, sharing with me its cheers.Fly, the Dream and the Child
I’d lie back, and close my eyes, I wanted to soar, be on the open range and ride, I’d ignore the differences between ocean and sky, And unite with my faithful friend, Letting me gambol aloft the haven.
The immensity was incredible,
A tranquil mind
