lovepotion #6

...

theres nowhere to go

but A ~ W ~ A ~ Y from here

because all of the apologies

are inside the belly of the wind

and the fed up stars

seem to be burning themselves out

as we try to find light & forgiveness

in eachothers dark

but that moon

that dam moon and its platter full of glow

like silver velvet

our plush curtain of dreams

are we seriously gona act surprised?

NO.

so close those eyes darling

wrap yourself with the nite

and unwet your mind. . .

i have Love for You to drink

...

la Luna knew

...

back then

i would replace your hand

that used to hold my hand

with a pen

i cried when the purple ink cried

i had fights with the unwet papers

and i didnt look up at the moon

just because i walked faster that day

and without you

it never meant that i didnt scream

i ... Love ... YOU !!!

while i was curving around 610

as that stupid sun kept shining

because every expression we said

every desire we spilled at nite

i threw all of it

inside a lavender-colored paper

crumpling it up

and tossed carefully under my bed

i always wondered

if

you

s h a t t e r e d

the same amount of pieces

that i did

but now

my fingernails

dressed in purple-glitter polish

play soulfully

in tones of forever

across your charming ribs

and. . .the moon looks down on us, smiling

...
