Skin to Bone

Skin to bone
peeling back
the unknown,
frail fragments
falling into black
dissolving into dust
for a life must
peel the burn away
shredding the decay
of life never living.

The Beast

Earth moves
under feet
tumbling; spiraling
to seek
the mystery
of the evening,
a secret
continuing to bleed 
but never spoken
only to be found
under the belly
of the beast;
guarded between
eyes and teeth
claws tearing flesh
only to forget
oh so easily
the girl,
creeping closer
in the dark
gutting the Beast
as it sleeps.

Domino

She fades
into the sigh
the past
is haunting
the future drowning
emotions running
all spinning
into a moment
of vertigo,
will he wait
for her
in this game
of Domino
pieces standing
waiting for her fall
to collapse
shattering her
in dreams
that undress
in the night
turning into
balls of light
as the sun rises
like a golden god,
emotions running
letting go
into a spiral vertigo,
will he wait
for her
in this game
of Domino
pieces standing
waiting for her fall
will he wait
for her
after the sorrow
into the dawn
of tomorrow
after the woe
of this game
of domino
will he wait
