Ellipsis (a.k.a: Anhedonia)

Yesterday while I lived
The house was a constant ghost
The rain was falling
Yesterday

Yesterday while I lived
My eyes and breath leaked out
The monotone of clouds in a digital era
Yesterday

Yesterday while I lived
Lay hundreds of men in trophy beds
Lusting only for the simple
Yesterday

Today

Unconventional Heart

Florentino, forlorn lover
Your eyes are overcast today
Your hands outstretched for cocoa skin
And mine searching for ivory

Your heart, played for amusement
Confused naivete
Today

Remember the snow
No powerful
Enunciation
And throw it all away

The voices resound tenfold
You mustn't stop to grow old
For you'll forget her name

Let me be grace among
Myriad liaison
For I am waiting just the same
