Every Little Sigh

Every little sigh…
I’ve captured every little sigh
That your heart
Managed to cry.
We love from the shadows
Feeling reverie not-so-little ties.
You feel this love that you won’t
Find from any other guy.
As the clock’s hand turns
I swear that I won’t pry;
Until the day that I’m yours
I’ll count every little sigh.

Marionette

I must amuse the world
By the way that I move.
A broken toy that lives
As if there’s something to prove.
Who’s in control?
I sense no pull on these strings.
No puppeteer up above
To give direction of things.
I’m carrying my operating cross
And the weight is too much.
I’m yearning for real life;
I want true love’s touch.
Now I sit on a shelf
And collect all the dust
Till the day that she comes
And mends what is crushed.

Weeping Piano

The melancholic
Sounds that spill from these lost keys
Match my own heartbeat.

Defibrillator

You cannot stop what
A poet spills from his heart.
The different inks of emotion
That spill from various parts.
I’ve drowned in my own ink
To the point of no return.
I’ve had my heart shocked
And had my life reborn.
You’ve brought me back
Yet you’re still in tears.
I can feel your love
But I can hear your fears.
You gave me reason to cry
But you give me reason to breathe.
As long as you keep my heart
I’ll have no reason to leave.

Love Transparency

Would you still ignore me
If, for you, I went to space
Searching upon stardust
To rip a star from it’s place?
Are you scared to fall with me,
Together towards the unknown?
Take your time my love
For I’m used to being alone.
No matter what you do
Your feelings are apparent.
If you feel this way about me,
Why do I feel transparent?

I Hate Liars

A man is as big
As the smallest lie he has
Spoken to the world.

Fork In the Road

For once, it’s I, who’s the fork
Which gives an option
In another person’s heart.
Now that my path is clear
It is my turn to give choices.
Who is to say which decision
Is good or bad.
I Just..
I want to disappear.
I don’t want to be a fork in the road.

My One and Only Choice

I’ve had it all chosen for me.
The family I was born in
And the name that I was given.
The world that always hears
But never seems to listen.
The schools that I’ve attended
And the teachers that have taught me.
From the friends that I have made
To the enemies that have fought me.
God even chose my heart;
At one point it was broken.
Even the words that I’ve spilled
And the feelings that I’ve spoken.
Out of all the things I said above,
I was blessed with just one choice.
My one true love, my missing piece;
I knew that it was you the day I heard your voice.

Happy Melancholy

I chalk up the time
That we’ve spent out of the world,
Spilling our hearts, and
As much as I try, I still
Feel the distance between us.

Eclipse

As the moon weeps
Throughout the night,
Spreading it’s star-like
Tears all over the sky,
I can only wonder
If it misses the sun
As much as I miss her.
They share such a connection
That is felt even by the eyes
Which surround them;
Just like us.
Despite the distance
Of night and day
That pushes them apart,
They forever travel the
Sky above, searching
For their lover’s heart.
The time will come for our halves
Of a heart to combine,
Like the sun and moon,
To make our own
Eternal eclipse.
