I think of you
Standing in the lobby
The ticket is
Spat and your name
Illuminates
These fluorescent
Lights.
More beautiful than
I remember,
That smile irradiates
My mind.
I cannot get you
Out
Of my head.
Out of my grasp;
My queen has no
Interest in a
Mere drone.
Buzzing thru the line
Like waves of sound,
Reverberating in my
Heart.
"Poetry is the one place where people can speak their original human mind. It is the outlet for people to say in public what is known in private." -- Allen Ginsberg

Falling Out of Love
I know I should
Get off this
Train
I know I obsess
I know it's too much
But
How can I
Possibly
Fall out of
Love with you?
You're the
Most
Beautiful
Girl I've never
Met.
Your words echo in my
Skull across
Aeons of
Depression and fear
Loathing myself
Into bottle after
Bottle
You
Were the light
At the end of it
All.
The sun after too
Many long nights.
My flashlight
In this cave
Of desolation
And abhorred creatures
Of my own making.
You
Are still
My shining light,
A priestess
Professing our
Love of
Whomever is
Tending the light
At the end of the
Tunnel.
