I know this to be true...

I know this to be true
We are here for a reason
To love, to make love, to be love
That this is all a part of some ancient mechanism
Making the world turn
One heartbeat at a time...

Nostalgia #1

This poem was written in July 2003

My heart would be lovely
Broken effortlessly and pinned to your wall
Added to the collection of lovers lost in your twilight

My pause would be sudden
Flighty and twisted with an obscured view
Watching all your conquests flash before you

My mind would be sharp
Cold and calculating with a blinding stare
Keeping myself one step behind at all times

Since you will inevitably leave me
Preparation is just a safety mechanism
So that I won't fall for your excuses and cover stories

I'll fine without you
You and your stories and daydreams
I won't even remember your name as I fall into eternal night

Far from your light that shines ever so bright...
