From the dawn, you were there
Leading the way,
to attain the new-born day

From the noon, we were in love
You took my hand,
Placing upon it, the band.

From the eve, the battle began
And you had to leave,
A bitter reprieve.

To live and to lead
To give and to please.

For every day we bring to bear
I love you more
No matter where

No matter when or what
You will always be
The only one for me.

Happy Valentine's Day, Vahn.

You're just a ghost to me,
Slowly fading away.
The person that I used to know,
Is not the same today.
I reach out to you,
Grasping,
Trying to pull you close.
The harder I try,
The farther away you float.
You used to say you loved me,
And I know it was a lie,
Because if you really did,
Why would you say goodbye?
I think about you everyday,
I need you so damn much,
A simple hello,
I miss you,
Or even the smallest touch.
You don't know how much it hurts,
Or how much I want to cry,
Every time you look at me,
And keep on walking by.

I stand on my guesses
  wond’ring what I should do,
   With a mind that’s implacable
    -unsoothed by Desire.
  What to make of myself,
   Upon my own precipice
     with an ability to fly,
    Still unwilling to move,
     wings laden with regret.
Yet across the chasm,
  I see a glimmer of Truth:
    A silver dream
      whistling my heart away.
 As much as I beg,
  In a voice lost in the hollows,
  The phantom can’t bother to stay.
   Off it flies in zero visibility,
   To the wind from whence it came.

Yesterday I was a bright white light, pregnant with joy.
Today I am wrinkled & grey. I am alone. I am heartbreak.

Yesterday I was young & pink, lover & bride. Yours.
Today I am sin & regret, judged & sentenced. Vile.

    His & not-yours, yours
    & not-his. My own,
    never my own, mine alone.


The wolf in my heart eats its own golden eyes,
belches & vomits & begs for more. Woof, woof.

The impotence of my failure gnaws my bones.
I do not tell lies, I am the lie. I tell myself.

I long for you, I reject you. This is me disowning myself.
Your breaking breaks me. I am nothing to break.

I am a blank-eyed statue of foolishness,
wreck of hope, despair of futures, loves.


Reject, discharge, repeal, me from these duties.
This inviolable shame burns red with victory.

Release me, leave me to my misery.
I am nothing to weep.

Let the silence that has claimed my soul
hold my hand, close my eyes.


    I, fallen (tripped)
    I, condemned (choked)
    I, accepted (reject)

There is no symmetry or artistic merit to this disaster.
This is a car crash of a grief.

Real-people sobs, snot & wet red heaving.
The only closure is the silence after.
