i scavenge for a piece of me
through shattered reveries
for love so that i may be free
come scavenge for my soul with me
from where you haunt my aching heart
to where i'll always die
then scavenge for a way to part
away these tears i cry
what way is there i'm meant to be
when they can't understand
i scavenge for that piece of me
throughout these foreign lands
and crawl with hands leading the way
in hope to find my eyes
and when i do i'll search for you
beneath your sordid guise
through shattered reveries
for love so that i may be free
come scavenge for my soul with me
from where you haunt my aching heart
to where i'll always die
then scavenge for a way to part
away these tears i cry
what way is there i'm meant to be
when they can't understand
i scavenge for that piece of me
throughout these foreign lands
and crawl with hands leading the way
in hope to find my eyes
and when i do i'll search for you
beneath your sordid guise
of blood and ink and of my truest thoughts
that once revived my heart to bear this whole
when love was love and lover's never sought
'twas Euterpe who would vouch for my poor soul
she sent to me when I was but a child
and came to me within a dream, you see
across the moor, across the murky wild
my other half who waited there for me
and how I have embraced that very cause
to satisfy the soul of one who dwells
within my heart to intrigue all the laws
of love and of sweet poetry to tell
I found my love, my love found me alone
eternally she's all I've ever known
i tremble at the thought that the ivory tower
of my brilliance, as wonderful as it may seem,
shall fall to a love that may turn sour
then agony will follow; all the while i dream
through and through and time again
that one whose beauty enraptures me
will not cause me an ounce of pain
but love me for an eternity
of my brilliance, as wonderful as it may seem,
shall fall to a love that may turn sour
then agony will follow; all the while i dream
through and through and time again
that one whose beauty enraptures me
will not cause me an ounce of pain
but love me for an eternity
as tongues place themselvesin positions to create
awkward silences
that refuse to break
and all the things
that conjure
endeavors in the air
serve a bitter notion
simplicity is rare
complication is question
of reason to pursue
answers that
make no sense
and die untrue
throughout the ripples
of longing for the universe
to measure us by
the cup we thirst
'til time ticks away
and turns us to dust
unto our final hours
into the earth's crust
and stars carry away
our memory in time
to deem all the ways
we'd be immortalized
'cause things like that
are in the nature of humans
unless we are but
creatures unproven
to worthiness
destined to lose throughout
the cost of things
we are without
and a poet's mark is
justified deep in
the thoughts that make
him passionate
same as a thousand
painters who
build like bricks
things to be expressed
beyond any word
for we long to be measured
by the cup we thirst
For once, I do wish in sleepiness lost
Within seldom embrace of such content
Not ever to see, nor feel what had sought
Through what I do so awfully admit
As droplets of me do fail in the depth
As droplets of me do fail in the depth
And restlessness overcomes all my time
It seems I’m consumed by all I had kept
For always behind the doors of my mind
And away throughout the hours I’ve known
And away throughout the hours I’ve known
By day after night and always within
‘Tis as these words do reflect me alone
With so many things I’ve yet to undim
Unwinding my thoughts, foreseeing my way
Unwinding my thoughts, foreseeing my way
As life does enter what I’ve yet to say
O spare me immortal time
There is no righteousness in death
Intrigue the words I pour
By this humble man's request
To all who cross my path
In all the thoughts I verse
O spare me immortal time
Do quench my deepened thirst
In all the thoughts I verse
O spare me immortal time
Do quench my deepened thirst
I've learned to paint this life
Across every given day
Where you had thought to forth
To me a blessing's grace
Across every given day
Where you had thought to forth
To me a blessing's grace
I am thankful for my gift
But please when I do go
O spare me immortal time
Come veil my poet soul
But please when I do go
O spare me immortal time
Come veil my poet soul
