one poem, two poem, swimming in the water.....

[trippinoutlaw]

oct 4th

Sheltered by loneliness
How can you fail when
  there is no one to disappoint?

My emotions today are grasping
My breath marked by gasping

This searching, seeking
For love, tentatively
Is tiring

Eying her through this wash of colour
Its hard to tell one from the other
Overwhelmed, as it were
  by the shades and hues
How can I know if its you
That I see in perfect tint?
              could you send me some sign?
              could you drop me just one hint?

We are the beautifully damaged my friend
We are the desperately seeking
We are the golden whose tarnish
               shows only when we are speaking

The smoke in your voice
so truculent and sweet
I know the kind of girl
I want to meet

Suffered in cool contemplation
Smoke in foul constellations
         stirs about my intentions
Sick from failed inventions
                 one last gasp
                        one last exhalation
One last retch before absolution
