andrea To Annie

you are my fallen angel
the one I did not understand & chose
to push you aside forced you to linger
too long in the clutter & confusion &
freedom of "it all" never knowing or
seeing or even wondering if you were
near me for some profound reason
& so I cursed you shoved you
even farther away as your light
your compassion your understanding
for all I said & did threatened to tear
down these walls I’ve so carefully built
all of these years
but once you were gone & I was
alone, I drug out all the tender
moments we shared & wept until
the tears were only dry bitter sobs
falling on my lap on a stuffed teddy
bear on your face in the picture I
held as tender as if it were your heart
your life the loss of you from my life
has prevented the changes in me I
saw & felt you start and every minute,
every second that you’re in my mind I
grow fearful that you’ve endangered
yourself & would flee if I dared to ever
approach you to simply hug you &
tell you it’s all going to be all right
I am terrified that one night, one day
I’ll get a phone call, a letter saying you’ve returned to where you fell from so long ago.

9 volt Jesus my brethren tore my wings from my back and i burned beautifully with frightful velocity

those who looked on thought i was screaming but it was really the sonic boom as i plummetted toward and through the heart of the earth

Bizzar he's wished upon his final star.
his arms still open, he falls apart.
discontentment running strong.
he's held by a thread for far too long.

when the love of a friend just isn't enough.
when your own reflection calls your bluff.
and emptiness is your only fill.
and all of life has lost its thrill.

he shrinks away. he falls again.
can't stand the feel of his own skin.
he's lost it all, far beyond recall.
the regrets he carries still standing tall.

as he reaches out one final time.
i'll touch his heart, i'll make him mine.
take him away from all that's here.
we won't be missed. never fear.

for i love the darkness of his face.
i love all about him that you disgrace.
i'll shelter him from the evil of all of you.
he's so much more than what he's been through.
