sweetness overdue,

a few little bits of original catastrophes,
by yours truly.

and enjoy as you might.

however, please refrain from posting.

dear my

sweet little lullaby, my.
can't help but notice your grin.
pretty little teeth, with a pretty little chin.
give your eyes a twitch,
and i fall in love (oh never leave)
with you, my.
sweet little lullaby, too.

dash of cyan

i fancy you, dear little blue orbs
that so nicely illuminate his cheeks.
your dash of cyan appears in my daydreams,
thieving from me my sanity and stature.

i often find myself infuriated with you,
and with that stunning little laugh, melting
my heart -starting with my ears-,
while there was no humor in any case.

why do you, such little things?, seem so smug
while the hearth so burns, resting you
to my left, with your pupils
focusing towards Pentu, the shepherd
who surely loves me more? seeing you

shining, with a dash of cyan, beside
the blazing fire, as your irises
paint a fine mural with the flames
while truthfully only staring with laze. so

you dilate your testing little aperture
and turn to gaze at me -you suffocate me,
for your fishing little cyan renders me...
and i favor you and i treasure you.

you

i'm not ashamed of it
i love the way you are
the pulse of your chest from
the hems of your vest
(my head rests softly
on its pocket)

i'm not ashamed of it
i long for you to visit
the warmth of your skin on
the soul of my hand
(your heart lies wholly
in its palm)

[tenor]

i hear
no longer ticking hands;

my mind swims,
my heart pounds,
my eyes bleed.

sobs echo the night

waters rise, earth falls
whale's demise, tundra thaws

never the right move
never the right stance
this world is a flood
this life is a staunch

giving your all
you'll make this earth rise
you'll make these waters fall
these whales will call
the tundra will upsize

now stop your cries
and brace for the fall
and give it your all

these floods are our allies

[tenor]

little you,
you are my heart.

you rip my pain away and
you tuck it in your pocket.
you give me your hand and
you keep mine in a locket.

a lock and key, you are my heart.
you've given me your life,
now i give you mine.

i love my heart, you, little you.

[tenor]

when i'm not with you,
i feel the droning thunder
i hear the brewing tornado
i see the swirling storm.

when i'm with you,
we feel the soothing river
we hear the chirping birds
we see the melting snowcaps.

there is never an end,
when i'm with you.

life goes on,
it drizzles like snow,
and when i'm with you,
it is infinitely ours.

[tenor]

you say
that you're right next to me
when you're a million miles away

you say
that you're here next to me
when you're a million worlds away

where do i go from here?
when you say that you love me
but you tear the drips from my wrist
when you say that you care for me
but you tear the heart from my chest

you say
that you're right next to me
when you're a million miles away

[tenor]

you were wrong

when you took my hand that night
and told me you had fallen in love

when you held my heart that year
and told me you were giving it all

you lied and you broke my heart
you set my house on fire

not you
it was never you
it was never me
you were wrong
