I’m not sure if the date, I found this in my iPad.

Reckoning
KS

Slowly the glow in our eyes faded,
The greatest moments,
Wasted moments,
Your indecision,
You lied to me,
While I lied to myself,
Move to myself,
And dream about myself…

“Broken Hearted (en memoriam)”
KS 12.19.12

Hopeless tear-filled eyes,
Horrified,
Tormented,
Helpless and unable,
Innocence lost,

My heart broken,
Lives stolen,
World fallen,
How did we get here…

It was too late,
There was nothing I could do,
Thus I closed my ears,
Words brought tears,
Pictures brought tears,

My heart broken,
Lives stolen,
World fallen,
How did we get here…

We keep repeating we need to…
Fix,
Change,
Act,
But then followed,
By words,
Full of hate,
Defensive,
People kill people,

My heart broken,
Lives stolen,
World fallen,
How did we get here…

To those lost, I shed my tears.

Convivial
25/9/12 K.S.

Tonight we put away our distractions,
So that you could deliver me to my reality,
Moments ago we did not exist,
In worlds that were familiar,
Strangers, now convivial,
Spiritually in commune,
Moments after first reception,
Soon the melding of anatomy,
The melting of inhibitions,
Dressed to initiate…

“Mind and Body”
K.S. 4/27/12
Your breath was harried,
Your chest tight,
Burning,
I watched you,
Protecting you,
The wind blew cool,
Rough,

We were a long way from home,

Your body betrayed your mind,
Pressing closer,
My breath warmed the nape,
Of your neck,
Signaled your body to,
Press closer,
I tried to maintain control,

We were a long way from home,
