Once in a distant lifetime
Weekends like this,
Meant more
Than just some "time off"

Wings.
Eyes open,
Spirit crawling out of its comfortable cage,
It once believed to be a nest.
Jumping,
And instantly
She
Had
Wings.

It once believed to be a nest.
Jumping,
And instantly
She
Had
Wings.
Refrain
And you said...
But that never really mattered anyway.
Just like my words,
As they disappear.
Lost in thin air.
My heart aches,
For what I know,
Because the truth is in my pain
And how I feel...
Yet I still refrain.
Alone.
Again.
In this damn bed.
But that never really mattered anyway.
Just like my words,
As they disappear.
Lost in thin air.
My heart aches,
For what I know,
Because the truth is in my pain
And how I feel...
Yet I still refrain.
Alone.
Again.
In this damn bed.

Whiskey Soaked Lips
LA lights, never shine quite as bright as in the movies.
But something about this dimly lit alleyway, has got me twisted,
In a way.
And we're trying to fight the morning light,
Whiskey soaked lips & lipstick stained nights.
Whiskey soaked lips & lipstick stained nights.
But what are we waiting for?
The sun to rise?
As our grip tightens on the moon.
Laughter flows freely,
Almost as freely as the booze,
And our conversation.

Twenty Five Cents
Cheap coffee,
Maybe for you cheap cigarettes.
Cheap perfume
And cheap whiskey.
But it's the simple things
Like Cheap love
Cheap sex
Cheap "maybes"
What's love, but twenty five cents?
Maybe for you cheap cigarettes.
Cheap perfume
And cheap whiskey.
But it's the simple things
Like Cheap love
Cheap sex
Cheap "maybes"
What's love, but twenty five cents?
Zephyr
She was a different kind of soul,
She liked lavender lattes and rock n roll.
Her spirit was free,
Like a bird in the wind.
Always moving east to west, then back again.
She wore vintage clothes, and torn up jeans.
Tossed her hair, cuffed her sleeves.
Sang shamelessly in quirky bars,
All cares to the wind...
This time was hers.
She grew with each sunrise,
And blossomed with each sunset.
She reminisced of times they met.
A simple song in the sweet wind.

Effortless
Time.
Endless,
Seemingly short and eternal consecutively.
How could something so intangible, be so cherished?
Could it be the moments?
Each second that passes, better than the last.
Conversation ran deep,
And time... stood still.
But oddly allowed for travel among memories ...
Similar memories, similar scenarios
Similar fears.
Two souls, stripped and simply talking..
Bare.
Hours pass, unbenounced to them.
So comfortable... So freeing... So simple.
So effortless.

Exploration
Whiskey.
You start to feel warm.
You cheeks become a sweet rose color.
Eyes, glass over.
Smile widens.
Tequila.
You feel frisky,
Dangerously living on the edge.
1,2,3
Time to go back to the hotel.
Listen to music.
Dance a little.
More.
Inhibitions disappear,
Stripping back your emotions, soul, and clothes.
Senses enhanced? Maybe.
Time to explore.

Haunting Words
A dream,
You were there... moonlight in your hair
Because, how else would we be meeting ?
Your smile, inviting.
Your touch, enticing.
Your gaze, alluring.
A spell cast on me,
Although I am sure cast on many others.
Not so special, but a spell strong enough to bond one to the temptation.
You have a way of making us feel like the only one you've ever laid eyes on.
Like we are special,
But that is your guise.
Your venom that makes it near impossible to break free.
I too, am like you.
Feeding off of the energy of another to fill a sick void.
We share a hunger.
It is so beautifully wicked that we tease one another with it, seeing who will give in first.
Will I loose control?
Or will you succumb to my energy in the moonlight?
Awake, I'm shaken.
Your words from my dream haunt me.

Don't you?
Suppressed rage,
Discomfort building, rising .
Searching for release, although it remains at her fingertips.
The beast screams to be let out of the cage,
Starts to release unpleasant sounds,
But then pulled back by the reigns of her patience.
She inhales,
It becomes difficult.
Visibly difficult.
Her patience has given her grace over the years,
Has made her whole aura seem bright and welcoming,
Yet there is a small, growing darkness that seeks to overtake it.
She struggles to maintain her grasp,
Her knuckles white from gripping onto her sanity and eloquence.
Tears being choked back,
The muscle in her chest that gives her life, aching.
If you look through her piercing eyes you can see straight to her soul.
It longs to be understood and expressed in all of its truth.
Look past the smile,
Deep inside, the pain of a young child is begging to be acknowledged... validated.
But you just enjoy her pain.
Don't you?
