ECHOE

did your heart ignite when your dreams disintegrated
did your happiness blossom when your loved one parted
trying to understand the Antarctic nature of your personality warms me
the machines run not out of passions steam, but the will to power


the ash-like response to my emotion is sufficient to quench the oceans of my desire
like a rose of soft pedals that bloomed on a deceivingly warm winter day
my presence is fleeting


LOVER


bursting the barrier of loneliness your presence seeps in like a waft of sensual air
like a dull flame encountering a breeze
you flutter

like the thick nostalgia of shining street lights in an empty city
a deserted garden in winter time that evokes reminiscing
you bring me perfect warmth
yet sadness

like the silhouette of a towering city viewed from air
the blazing quality of your ambiguous nature
draws me

your elegance is liquid at 98.6 degrees
my body combusts at 98.6, you
fuel me

excited and unstable is that state of your love
this defines your surface, by changing
you protect


THE SECRETS
OF
MY HEART
