turning the key
and looking inside an abandoned room inside himself,
he finally saw someone he could color with
there weaving his broken halves together.

turning the key
and looking inside an abandoned room inside himself,
he finally saw someone he could color with
there weaving his broken halves together.
avp
broken poems
from his private collection,
uncovered splintered remorse
for his life
avp
in a darkened room, the ghosts came to fight …
he fought hard to purge cautiously close thoughts he shouldn’t own,
giving him reason to be torn down, aching and bleed.
numb from cigarettes and boxed wine, he tried removing tattooed thoughts
pierced and perceived on his skin …
as sin by others.
avp
with no tears left
watching the lightening hit the snow,
i took off your coat of arms,
broke off the ice from my bones
and gracefully reclaim my crown
avp
the night rain tapping
morse code on my window
warns me you’ll be gone before i rise
avp
running from himself
on tear soaked pavements,
he slipped and fell into a puddle of
non-commitment.
avp
where is my shadow?
it disappeared in the isolated shade
of time spent with you
avp
held secrets that might spill,
see with the lights out
to fix what’s broken
AVP
painting him in blurry shades
of what was beyond his sight,
the artist took back the damage done,
and showed him the true colors
of what he stored under his hat.
AVP

trying to unlearn your lips,
yet i hold on to
your every touch & whiskey texts
and throw away what
makes me hurt the most
AVP
