Pictures of Nothing
Remember the day that we met in the park
where the sunlight and shadow entwined?
That picture looked perfect, more perfect than art,
but I wish, on that day, I'd been blind.
Remember the night that we lay in the stars
in a pose for each flash in the sky?
I told you I loved you. You said you did too,
but the best you could do was pretend it was true.
You know, I used to smile every time that my eyes
found the pictures of both of us framed on the wall,
but the way that you look at him makes me feel sick.
Now, they're pictures of nothing at all.
When I borrowed a lens, it was easy to see
we were hanging together by threads.
I asked you for glue to secure what was left,
but you gave me the scissors instead.
All of my friends claim to know how I feel
and they say I'll get better each day.
I know that they're right, but you're hard to erase
and each day is an hourglass floating in space.
You know, I used to smile every time that my eyes
found the pictures of both of us framed on the wall,
but the way that you look at him makes me feel sick.
Now, they're pictures of nothing at all.
Shining, Burning
The candle's out of breath again.
My silent twin in paraffin.
Familiar trip across the hall
becomes a course of obstacles.
A step, a slip, an awkward twist.
A fumbling man who might be missed.
My pupils shrink. You fill the view.
I find my body drawn to you,
but I'm afraid to get too close because
You're shining, burning, blinding like the sun.
You're one of the stars that captivates me,
but I've stared at you too long.
Out of pocket, locked in light.
A penny in a world of dimes.
Flipped around, my front exposed.
I never fashioned silver clothes.
Can't you see my blushing face
felt better in its hiding place?
I need to see the shadows fade
or turn my head the other way
and never look again because
You're shining, burning, blinding like the sun.
You're one of the stars that captivates me,
but I've stared at you too long.
