Within The Mockingbird's Lies
My mind keeps racing, The colors which I keep facing- Culminate in wintered withered words. Through the echoes of the mockingbirds, A knife. And now, when I close my eyes, I am stopped by a guiding listening light, Gifted by a cloaked savior of The Truth and The Sight. And now, they sit there- And now, I can finally feel the bearable breeze of my future’s air. ~SF

Requited Love
Oh, my great friend, I saw the prettiest peddles along the bend, Pretty sunflowers for you, my great friend, So, I stopped and picked free bouquets, Because I know we must leave no trace of our days. Oh, my great friend, how I am excited to spend, The evening with you and watch as we may wake the moon. I’m dressed in your favorite attire, the one you mentioned to me last noon. I smile as I wait at your door, thinking of how you are my godsend. Oh, my great friend, though

As I watched my hearts' yearning fade away, I felt akin to a feline or a sorceress of great sway, For I brought myself back fr

I want you to know, I would slay the sun from it’s sky, In order to show you how the stars lie, Without the distraction of the moon by their side. I would search and sail the seven seas, To bring you treasures that mean to you, How much you mean to me, There, I would find the place in your eyes, Where this world has died, And is now just yours and mi

The Boy by The Bayou
A sudden drop into the creek below, Amidst the thickets and the melted snow, A boy in yellow overalls does roam, Amidst the cicada's snare, he finds his home. His feet a-treading through the cities of lost relics, His eyes a-twinkling with the spirit of lovers' abodes. The breeze blows by a message of secrets old, Whispering tales of hidden worlds with words untold. In its wake, a scent so sweet, a lusting pheromone, Pulling me to a life full of unknown. Oh, how my heart
