Tiger Praying

"I've got to feel you in my bones again...." -spill canvas
               please don't leave.

Remind Me

Remind me again
how to pretend
how to live an entire life
to then begin from the end.
Remind me of rapture;
the forsaken stay in your sway,
leaves me a tiger in the ruins
wishing for you in the remains of the day.

"Sometimes I wish that the tide would take me....."

You were right about this lifetime
but keep following from the distance
compose me a serenade
to keep me moving through this dance.
Remind me again
how to comprehend
love letters slipping from my fingertips
that I read but never send.

"Sometimes I wish that the tide would take me....."

Remind me again there's time past December;
say you love me, say you won't...
tell me I how I have changed,
into the double dare you don't.
Remind me again there's time past December.
Together we remember embers glowing in the ash.
Lift me from the scorched pyre,
from the wreckage and reverie of our past.

Least

I fear all you see

is the worst there is in me

and don’t know how,

that ever came to be.

I loved you with all I had and more.

I loved you under lock and key,

because you were never very certain,

what the hell you wanted from me.

Now I’m walking down the road,

in your favorite over coat

trying to kill the chill over 
your beckoning ghost.

I’m an absolute mess

and I must confess

the things I need least

is what I miss the most.
