Julien Dore - Kiss Me Forever

...I fell asleep some time ago

locked away in the attic 

of a tower

every day stenciled 

to perfection

even my smile---

one and two and three

release

a spontaneous arrangement

threw me off course

and now I'm addicted

to that cracked mouth

of infinity

but I don't think

it's really about youyouyou...

It's more of the rush

the high

the taste

during that fairytale sequence,

repeated

moments after...

Candice Pillay - Hold On

...things have changed

and I can still feel

the grip 

I have 

on it...

nails sunk deep

in my lip

Even when blood

is drawn, I still

hold on

to it--

the words, a kiss

those notes, cologne, 

that trip

I've wrapped myself

in silver chains,

with saltwater in play

strapped firm to my bed

keeping way

Of anything that skips

...because

I want

nothing left to sip...

Madonna - Ghosttown

...cut from the same crystal

we have similar facets

shining differently

in this big big world

I try to melt free

but sometimes i think

I'm better off

in this block of ice

numb to most things
these days

the only time I strayed

left me wounded
alone

without sight

without thought

without breath

and all I wanted
wanted
wanted

was my pairing piece 

of that one crystal

to hold forever 
to make me better...

but I will be ok

because I believe

this is the way

big boys bloom

...

Alyson Stoner - Pretty Girls

...my face is hidden

for good reason.

I'll let them see

what they want

believe what they want

until someone mindfully

takes my wall

of golden chords

and wraps them round

and round 

and round my neck 

till I no longer see myself,

floating limp

in these beaded drapes...

Tinashe - All Hands On Deck

...dead and gone

from what I used to be

you lock into me

your legs wrapped around

wanting me closer

to keep you warm

I do

I'm nervous

so nervous

and sense a heartache

coming

But can't swim away

not now

too soon

All i can do

is look away 

from that sweet face

of yours...

-Note To Self-

...sometimes silence is ok

And I've learned to deal with it...

...During my stay

At The Royal Ballet School

I saw him from the corner of my eye

A large white stag

With golden antelers

And violet-colored eyes

I walked closer to the window

In an attempt to follow him

But Margot Fonteyn's statue

Barred

The docent asked if I was alright

I told her yes

But I really wasn't.

I felt I had seen an angel

If even for a second

And i only wanted

To feel more of him...

Azealia Banks - Ice Princess

...a coolness overtakes

Filling my blood with regret

Starting in my fingers

It creeps up

Slow 

Through my arm

Into my face

And I can feel my eyes

Cooling

My head then spikes

Sharp and rigid 

Making me wander

My surround

I blink and stumble

He tells me 

This is what I am

And part of it is true.

From all the blacks and greys

And all those cool colors in between

That have shaped my heart

Into this freon pump...
