schrodinger's prison
i cannot escape because
i do not want to

the most valued gift
i have ever been given
is new perspective

liminal spaces
hide within the deep shadows
longing to be found

we found each other
starstuff beyond memory
behind the darkness

monsters in the light
glittery and sparkling
as they take your eyes

the phantom heartbeat
resounding inside my breast
skips in time with you

steam. whistle blowing.
all aboard! run from your life.
get it back on track.

red splatters eggshell
dripping crimson streaks of rain
his blood stains my wall

spin the wheel and drop
lucky numbers whirling round
russians do not play

the deck is shuffled
all the cards are well hidden
waiting to be found

two black aces live
within the beating heart
death is violent

faceless voices cry
sanguine tears fall in fire
ashes stain their tongues

two black kings outside
in silence waiting for news
wild magic unleashed

somewhere beyond home
in the memories long gone
we linger in love

lonely the station
among the yellow salt flats
dead horses run south

shadow wings like skin
the caress of a lover
longing for your death
