You are as beautiful as my birth,
but not forgotten.
Unrelentingly radiant to my heart;
you’ve blinded my eyes, speak to my love.
Would you grant me the pleasure;
the fruition of dreams, the fruition of sleep?
I speak, but forget: I am just a wave,
A frequency, a living pulse.

I’m stuck on the opposites:
confounded and praised.
Reaped inside without a reason,
infernos that sear my fantasies,
tepid truth -blinded to my first through third eye.
Still I die; I die to see the thirsting dawn.


I am the two-toed wanderer
