I saw you there,
Under shaded alders
Whispering my name, setting my soul on fire
I reached for you, but you vanished like mist-
A broken dream, unanswered wish
I cradled your memory, beneath the galaxies
My only dream, from now till eternity
---------------------------------------------------------
I�m Me
I hear the crow caw,
A sound of nails on slate
Does he mock me, I wonder,
I see the tattered remains of society,
Piles of refuse on the ground
Must mine be the only hands that care,
I smell the burnt stench of death,
Humanity in its ruin,
Can I be the only one to choke from its grip,
I feel the filth of decay on my skin,
The crawling bacterium of waste,
Will I alone crave cleanliness,
I taste the sweetness of honey on my tongue,
A golden flavor like mead,
Only this will save me, only she, can save me.

Work
Buttons, keys, and numbers
The clink and tock of time ticking,
Labored labor.
Onward bustling, striving, rushing,
Always downward, onward, outward,
Endless eternity.
