Ghost Figures

Ghost Figures

In the night
The
Smoke
And
Mirrors

All closing
The shadows
Interchanging
But
No one
Accepting
The role
Of
Responsibility

And now
15 years
As if
It
Isn't
Enough
Ostracized
Exiled
Now
To be
Welcomed back
Parades
Honoring
the
Dis service
Of

Solitude
Abandonment

My Sister

My Sister

My sister
I've never
Had
But I'd
Think
Twice
Before I
Told a lady
Anything
Except
Her

Blood brothers
From
Another
Mother
Yet
Not
even though
I'd call
And defend
Her as
My own

Grew up
Apart
Yet in
the same
Lifeline
Just miles
Distanced
Away

To the
Advice
Given
And
Advice
Refused
Tough love
Respected
to the
End

For she
My sister
If not
From my
Mother
Yet
A sister
More than
A sister
Could
Ever
Be

Transatlantic Goodbyes

Transatlantic Goodbyes

Paralyzed
By
Transatlantic
Flights
Trips accross
Love lines

Closing
Your eyes
But it
Burns
From the lack
Of sleep
Or tears
For which
You can't
Produce
Anymore

Just
Like
Love
That feeling
She can't
Or won't
Produce
For you

Economy comfort
Doesn't
Bring comfort
To your
Fears
Turned
Into
Dreams
Only
Reality
When
You awake

Cabin pressure
Pressured
Thoughts
Over her
With
No place
to go

Transatlantic
Flights
Means
Good bye
For now
Good bye
Forever
