Our Ashed Lives

(c) 2004 By: James Agular Craven


We stumbled through the cracks
of modern loveless youths
and prior antiquated bestings
of our so called faded truths
We slipped upon the notions
of drunkenness in general
and our tired faces never knowing
our childish crime of love now soiled
we fell beside the now ashed lives
of sinners, saints, and fiends
the intricate weaving of souls
was seen in us the thieving kings
We walked along the middle
of the well known life's two roads
never choosing right nor left
we accepted the beggar's load
And we hovered in the consciousness
with nowhere else to go

We sustained ourselves with cleverness
And betrayed our virtues well
Refrained and unattached
Emotionless we fell
We wore our scars as proof
That we weren’t afraid to die
And of all the countless times
We’ve tried in vain to fly
to match the Gods and touch the sky
But we were merely choking
on the ashes of our lives
As we laid crushed beneath
the weight of our own pride


Or No...
(c) 2004 By: James Agular Craven

And as the sun climbs down the limitless sky
my head still rings from the silence
echoing like dreams that make us,
or brake us,or leave us,
or no...
But as the sun creeps behind the veil of time
that blankets the emotional decay
of the years so often unkind
my heart still aches from the blindness
Burning like memories that bind us,
or test us,or guide us,
or no...
Yet in this twilight moment I have found
that amidst the harvest skyline
and the sound of a begging crow
That even with the ringing of my ears
and the tears as the flow
the sun of untouched purity
could never set too slow

Speechless, terrified and unashamed
(c) 2004 By:James Agular Craven

Speechless and afraid,
all the things that it might help to say;
as you move closer, I start to see
the perfect people we could be,
I close my eyes;
Terrified of disbelief,
And the other thoughts that steal my sleep;
My hand upon your shoulder,
eyes connect, my words now bolder;
you resistant, I persistent,
and for a single fleeting instant,
I feel the loss of inhibitions,
but turn away;
Overzealous and scared as hell
of all the past times I have fell,
and the other stories that wouldn't sale;
I try to catch my breath
but come up short,
There is nothing I have wanted in this way before,
I reach to you with my often empty hands,
and learn that instead,
they're filled with yours and...
Hopeless with no shame,
only a moment since our eyes first met,
but a lifetime of memories remain.


To the 'fairy' of my love
(c) 2004 By:James Agular Craven

someone tangible

I had a dream last night
but I think I was still awake
staring at the ceiling
but I could only see your face
I can't remember the last time
it was that I saw you
but I dreamt last night I held you in my arms
and it hurt this morning
when I woke sad, cold and alone
And you know I always do this
my big heart's my biggest flaw
And I wish I didn't miss your beautiful eyes
that I never really saw
I guess that I'm just chasing
imaginary faeries that can't be caught
You spread your faerie wings and fly
and I spread my human arms and fall farther from you
the fairy of my love who can not be caught
And I wish I didn't miss your beautiful smile
that I never really saw
