  We buried you in tiredness Within the glassy water hall Where you, forever yesterday Shall wave at our daily stress. We soldier on, from time to time For nothing more, and even less You dwell within our mind enshrined While we, eternally, progress. And rest, and what we'll never find We all have long since left behind And all we ...

I greet you under velvet skies The hard and heightened field of blue I get it from your valiant eyes From which I will remember you. And when my empty soul gets shallow My cold body is out-stressed Please wake for me and all that's hallow And put my weary thoughts to rest. Forever in these eyes, forever In ...

I don't know if I'll burn tonight, And of what difference would it be? There's cinder in my throat and there is Nothing else to see. I do not always think aloud. And when the tired bell resounds The night away and follows me. I'm not the wind, I am the cloud. How all we ever walk together Endlessly ...

And everything will be alright. Well, who am I to say it will? It might just make you sleep at night, And afterwards be bitter still. Yet everything will be okay, Not that I could just make it so, Or by declaring, it will go And make the sorrow go away. But everything will be just fine. At least ...

What's black is black, and then,descending Like on a dream the sleep does come And cuts through lacy eyelids, rending The rest from night, and rest from some. And grey on grey the eyelids mutter The beating heart knows not of peace And fear and panic-stricken splatters In corresponding shades of these. While in the air, cald and ...

With all the probability of flight And all the rar'ty of delight With our transparency alight We sight the shining sea And while we anecdotally align And interchangeably entwine While into density we sign We find the failing seal So now this intercourse will become right With certain series in full bright We travel unendingly wide The great divide, A single ...

the night We sprawl through half-deserted streets The silent moonlight showering The quiet night air lowering We crawl where hollow nightshades lead We chase an empty mile around And while I am the heathen king For you, you are my evening And call to me without a sound Until we radiate in light Invisible, and out of sight You whisper to ...

walk unafraid As I was cast upon the sands Away, out on this dreary shore It was but for your healing hands That I could walk the dream once more & all that I have been before Was foamy surf upon the sea & what the future held in store Was ever more seen blearily Across the endless leagues ...

the sleep To the fire, and the flame And the star that bears your name To be whole, one and the same In the everlasting game. There we meet, time and again In the soft september rain Where the day is free of strain And the words have lost their stain. There we cross the great divide There we let ...

the sky And the space, and the sky And the stars in your eye And the universe passing us by Are the canvas, and screens Of our hopes and our dreams And the watery, silver-lined schemes. And we hold, and we feel Every word that is real Every fiery flame-tongued ordeal Wil just lead us into What we already knew: You're in ...
