Your graceful movements trace my body
Your mirroring eyes touch my face.

-Remembered-

Strip the bed he used to lie in
A forever sworn love is broken.

Thinking alone I sit in this diner
White Fifth Avenue.

Thinking alone I walk this street
Cold New Jersey- we would hold hands.

Riding this train
Crowded, and I would touch you.

Working hard now learning the spirit mixes
I will pay off my debts and leave.

-Freedom-

I will pack my bags
Traveling hard I will discover this country
Like an adopted son finding his mother
She might still have greatness.

 

-Forgiveness-

Standing in black absence contemplating
The heaviness of nothingness
For the first time in a long time feels like an invitation.

You are nothing but a character in my life
I sit here thinking for everyone,
Writing for no one.

-Forgotten-

I fade into the observed.

I fade into the observed.
