Skim your mind over the small print without looking for the catch
Who needs drugs when you've got feelings and a perfect mind to match?
In this land of sharpened senses we're all living in reverse
And we ain't afraid of nothing and we speak our words in verse.

Starry-eyed

All matter comes from vacuums in the sky so stars and I are inter-changing dust, debris of entities that had to die with you the reason they combust. Dawns rabid arms may chase the night away but you beam bright throughout the whole of time, and dust is waste - just useless space decay but your persona postpones star's decline. Hearts slow their fusing love; you supernova, erosion grinds my dust-bones ever smaller, but sun you give me life when we're toget

Starry Eyed

You make maps to ceiling constellations, and I wanna lie here and trace every line, until we're lost in the dark matter of your mind. With arms cooly tucked beneath your head, you navigate an escape from nothingness. There is a brilliance spilling from your lips, as your mouth rambles on and on. You have long drifted alone with starry eyes, but now you've found a passenger.

Static and stars

Sweet someone You're hanging stars up in the static You let maybes into your dreams But these years of ours are crowding out your favorite promises Dear loved one You open up the sky to let the storms drift in You say the thunder and the silence sound like God Listen, my loveliest somebody Your heartbeat thunders like God's whispers speaking your maybes into my dreams and your electric silence shimmers over us promising Closer, someday, closer

You make me ill to my core. It's the way you curl yourself beneith my skin and suck the love and passion from my bloodstream like a sun starved flower. You sit benith the open sky in your flowerpot, adorned with my words. I bathe you in the things you need, but yet you still rob my bones. You betray my trust when I need you most. Then you dissapear, like some godforsaken ghost into an early morning fog and all you leave behind is dew-drops on the lashes that protect my eyes. When you kiss, you consume. You burn like a forest fire, searing and violent, across the tips of

Untitled

"You left your watch here" This place has become a store house for bad memories Except when it comes to you because the only thing you've ever left here was me and now I'm stuck here waiting for you to take me home But you cant There's a whole lot of distance between us, gaps that not even the sun knows how to swallow up We are mismatched cookie cutter pieces stripped and sewn to the same heart Your patterned like A Clockwork Orange- all violence and vulgar slurs while I'm shaped a little like Happpythankyoumoreplease- all I want is your love. All you give me is your bullshit

Amongst the Stars

I could always handle you when you were cold water dripping down the curve of my spine and kissing the heat from my shoulder blades but when you wound around my legs and tried to drip off the tips of my fingers I had to stop you and press you back against my sternum Your kisses tasted like flower petals with edges more jagged than razorblades but I never minded when you left me raw and aching Instead I pulled your lips to my throat and let you kiss away the stardust and peel the paint from my skin- You always said I was like an old house and benith the cheep wallpaper that covered my frame were hidden secrets. I told you they wer

Quite a quickly written poem for me, I hope it makes (some) sense.
I debated between "Perfection" or "Elation" for the title - not sure if I made the right choice. Any other title suggestions much appreciated (:
