Another Night it's late. dark. but i feel it again. that familiar pounding. that growing desire. that persuasive whisper. pain, it tells me. beauty. love. i try to drown it out as i smoke a cigarette on my front porch. inhale. pain. exhale. beauty. love. i try to focus on the lightly glowing embers. loneliness. the trail of smoke against the night sky. happiness. the whisper is so seductive. so close...... kitchen........ bathroom....... car keys..... it only hurts for a moment. one moment, it tells me. i know better. i know better, but i feel much worse. "who are you?" i ask the whisper aloud. "who are you to come to me now?" pain. beauty. love. lonelinesAnother Night by ~Aramaia


Like Autumn In The Oven The time goes by so slowly in our silenceLike Autumn In The Oven by ~Aramaia
On these rare visits
You don't speak a word
And I, I keep my tongue held tight
So as not to shatter the illusion
That our kiss, our touch, our love
Is enough. Just enough
When my lips introduce themselves to yours
On a cold day they are recieved
With a momentary chill like lips on glass
And you spell out our love with the tip of your tongue
And fingers, greeted by wetness
Eyes, your eyes, opening, closing, and over
Your cheeks, red, like migratory leaves
Riding on shaky breath, crisp morning air
In Iowa
In Novemeber
Your smile, my melting heart
And similarly my brain
Melding, mergin


Stretching I'm too big for my skin. I feel it stretching and tearing in all the places I have no room for growth. Knuckles seep through bare boned; a fungus growing among winding branches. My heart twists and burns, unfolding like a bat at dusk clawing at my lungs and I can't breathe. I'm a monster who no longer recognizes its own face, driven mad by the lingering scent of the prey that can't be caught. I salivate, I dream, I pull my hair now there is no room inside of me for anything else save my own precious thoughts, thoughts pondered too much and warped too far that I feel nothing save shame in place of where I'm sure I once loved.

Blue Light The rainfall says pitter-patter on my heart today as I sit with nothing but the blue light of the television screen. The air outside was cool today and I shivered a bit as the wind passed by me. My mind has been wandering down different paths these last couple of weeks, but all of them have led me to you. And when I see you behind my eyes walking towards your door, I sit in my car. I find that I do what I am best at and I run. I run because Im scared and because Im too proud to chase after something that turns away. Then my mind wanders again and I think of the spring and I think of flowers, which in turn reminds me the day you tBlue Light by ~Aramaia
