innuendo

its vapors

/ my secret innuendo / 16 Comments

as the mist, its vapors
turns my air
to its breath
i can feel that i knew you
once
before i knew…

you burned me
with your fire
inside:
i have always known you

and even when i did know
i didn’t know yet
yet i knew too…
that all along
you were building a mystery
that had dissolved into me

to the end of the road

/ my secret innuendo / 11 Comments

words only take me to the end of the road… where feelings are footpaths… but, opening me to you and you to me… i miss you when you go… i am yours… sing to me anyway… never forget that your tears are your soul…

try to fool me

/ my secret innuendo / 16 Comments

you can try to fool me
fool me not
but maybe at morning
as the day begins to remind me
that day can be night if i let it
or i can move backwards
through time
deceptions as distractions
flowing through my brain
when it believes that maybe chaos does rule the world

try me, try to fool me, maybe once…
and then maybe, i’ll go to the other leftside of the moon later

covers of me, of time

/ my secret innuendo / 7 Comments

you complete me as you rise

to fill every gap

with each perfect

complement

knowing

you truly

to be full

of cells

immersed

in your deep

as the covers of me

of time

left

basking

purely invisible

your wish

/ my secret innuendo / 8 Comments

what is your wish?
why don’t you tell it to me
now…

so i can keep it safe in the place
where the trees know
your name

and why not tell me too
if you are for real
in a place where i am you
and you are me

did i tell you yet that you are my wish?

ghost

/ my secret innuendo / 11 Comments

can i face you, ghost
and know everything
that what isn’t said
could be
but is masked instead in a mist…

its chosen way
lose yourself
in me
when you feel you see me
but don’t

a side of me, you follow
gone like mist, maybe sleeping

eyes lost
given
proudly to you
and for you

this poem inspired uncleblack to compose a song ‘ghost’ using these lyrics… posted on bandcamp (the katie winter).

thank you! 🙂
