Safety

 Sleep lover, close your eyes.

The morning will be brighter, we'll survive.

Glimmer

 I'l let the light shine on me

Absorb its healing grace

Though the sun might burn flesh

It shall not mar my face

Eleven Years

 Sunlight kiss my body

Lover kiss my soul

I'Il persevere forever

By half I will be whole

The Tarot Reader

 Devils dance, now roll the dice

They come like lions, leave like mice.

First Love

 Skin on skin

My soulful dear

Your eyes on mine

Nothing to fear

I'll hold tight

Never to run

Taste so sweet

Drops of sun

Wispless Soul

I am the tangerine oracle.
Only lies do roll from my tongue.

To assuage and bely all your fears.
I'd give you the breath from each lung.

I speak in the words sorely wished for,
To weave diamonds built from coal.

With gentle and nimble, pale fingers
I pluck sadness straight from your soul.


I'm rarely spared a thought.

But tales all told, help all given,
It's in my own rope I tie the knot.

Toothless

One by one I pull out my teeth

I won’t be fighting no more. 

No need to bare them 

to gnash them at foes.

I’ve given up now, 

There’ll be no more of those. 

I won’t be settling my score.
