Death or Oblivion

day gleaming
apparition's shine lights a flare on dark water
another season lost to despair
world in stillbirth
eon of apprehension
falling forward
end of longing
forced beginning
heat induces ire in the street
no forgiveness, no forgetting now
death or oblivion
blighted sun, couldn’t stay
doesn’t die, just wastes away
in endless light

pain indulged a bitter light
a shallow signal pulled from sleep
it never ends, it never feels right
no
dragged out and drawn
but a hollow alarm
all and nothing at once
nothing
(over, under, around)
keep the spark from falling
bring the body home
i’d lose it all
total dissolution
ground intrudes, fallowing
senses call
forever falling, annihilation bound
a curtain parting, blank faces all around
forever falling, forever
wasted desire
silence called into fire
all and nothing at once

Blister

in ruin, a promise
an ending, enraptured
beyond a monument
(light yields to the pleasure of all at once)
in the haze, a land behind
(in the shadow of a fever, is this lust?)
new sight
(falling, no halo i can trust)
in ruin, a promise
an ending, enraptured
beyond a monument
glimmer, vast
(far in the reaches of)
a promise
enraptured
fade, wither, shine
like the blister of a burnt-out century

glow, boy
melt the fear for me
lay your body in the stream
painkiller
i like the feeling of you
deeper, a little
rearrange me
let go of power
i know a place where we can fall
into another flooded scene
show me every injury
make me believe it
i will whet the edges of misery
‘til change is all that i can see
i like the feeling of you

purity, end this now
or let the dream consume itself
in half-light, the old illusion frays
warmth fades into loss
but we’ll fail another way
burn, become, decay
not another thought
breach is filling up
can’t keep the feeling locked
can’t see the floor

Enter and Echo
04:52

promise of divine
heavy with the endlessness of time
spilled like honey
in flower eyes
caught up in yearning
bliss resigned
enter and echo
search for disintegration
calling, enthralling
caught up in yearning
bliss resigned
spilled like honey
in flower eyes
enter and echo
search for disintegration
long for eternal
feel for the dissipation
fail to define
flooded and perfect
exit sublime
craving is boundless
