night

on the wet sand of the lake shore,
while the moon shines bright -
i lie alone - with me, by my side.
as i rise, i have company - i realise.
while i marvel how well he hides from the moonlight-
my shadow walks me home tonight.

half the pain

the sound of my voice dies,
half way tween you and me.
half the way is as far as i can see.
that's exactly how far my reach is.

i have come to the end,
of half the journey.
i wait there left with-
half the pain - pray me the other half.

diary

today, the sun rose,
dismantling the dream a little more.
yet another cliche i fought all thru -
opened another wound and came true.
i close my eyes some more and go to bed -
for i died my day's worth of death.

sinnerman's pilgrimage

offering dying flowers -
and the maggot fruit;
i climb down a thousand steps -
into the fiery pit.
as i wash my hands in angels' blood;
through the leafy smoke -
i see the distorted image.
i am on my pilgrimage.
