DOLL PARTS VOL. 1

Hey, guys!
Today I'd like to share some snippets from a new upcoming project I'm working on. I'm not sure when it will be released because I have a novel in the works, the blog and some meet and greets, then the Little By Little tour that goes for 5-6 weeks in the autumn. I'll keep you updated as I create artwork, get enough material I'd want to share.

Summer Flames

-TEXT-

Take me and love me as the summer sun turns red. 

Your freckled skin against my inked,

a beautiful contrast.

I love the way your stubble brushes against me and how your messy

fringe impairs your line of sight.

I slide your glasses onto your face so that I come into focus, in the same

the way your presence brought focus to mine. 

Your lips press against mine and sugar laden fire burns through me.

I am a marionette, dancing to your touch, breathing to your rhythm and exhaling with the promises of future embracement. 

-THE ARTIST- 

-TEXT-
As my fingers dance across the keys, I am the pianist, but you are the melody that I play.

Inspired deeply and entirely by your humble nature, 

there is nothing I could ever compose that 

comes close to capturing all that I feel for you. 

-HAPPINESS-
But I know he could never love anyone as decayed as me.
And it is so that I sit, staring after him with a heart bleeding free. 
I'll never understand why I burn with such desire, only to suffer at the base of my
fire. 
Your tone eviscerates me faster than anything ever could and your expression leaves me frozen
to my core. 
You fail to see the roads I've travelled for you, the blood I've spilt in your name and the tears I've given just to speak your name; perhaps I've confused you with someone deserving of such dedication.
I was a single-minded child to believe that I could find salvation in your arms;
pressing all of my hopes and dreams into a book that didn't belong to me.
Scribbling on the walls of public toilets declarations of a love that I failed to understand, but constantly thirsted for.
I've watched the years go by, my infantile fantasies and impaired notions, hiding the real me behind
beautifully crafted lies.
And now all I can do is sit and cry.

-The Key- 
I found myself void of everything.
Perfectly still and calm.
I created a symphony composed with my breathing and 
circulation.
I dipped into my inner nothingness and accepted what I've
always been, but constantly denied.
Cold and sterile like a surgical theatre,
but gleaming from the inside out. 
I revel in my strength in the world's silence,
knowing that at any time I could capture it and make it my own.
Fear is a foreign concept and I've never understood proper guilt,
yet here I am, bloodless and eager for more;
wanting to walk to the edge of this confinement and jump off the edge.


"Orchid" 

-TEXT-
Allow me to run my fingers through your waves,
stroke your soft, orchid-toned lips. 
Allow me to seduce your body, as you’ve done my wit. 
I intertwine myself with you, so you don’t have to feel
the pain radiating through you.
Through my kiss you are reborn. 


-Sweet Junkie Dreams- 
Forever bound by the curse of unrequited love,
I will forever feel this dull, consuming aching inside.
For a fleeting moment, I'm seduced by the idea that he could feel
something warm, sticky and beautiful for me.
He tastes of sugar and suicide.
A perfect combination of everything I'm looking for.
He's the master of my fantasy;
A true artist with his body.
Like the sneak, I head his call and slither around him.
Forever amazed by his eyes that always mimicked the colour of the sky,
my seductive and curious nature playing well with his anxious and excited one. 
As the rain and leave of Kyoto swelled around us, I wanted him to be mine.
My mouth found his between the dances of the raindrops and he propelled me 
with such desire, it felt as if I was being swept away in a tsunami. 
I pushed his glasses up and laid my cheek against us as the world slowed around us.
And for once the chaos that I've always found so beautiful was tremendously ugly in this moment,
in his light, and I knew that at all costs I needed to keep him by my side. 
Fleeting notions beneath my surface were electrified as he wrapped his arm around me and drew me closer to him.
His frame, fresh as the pale autumn moon, was warm and welcoming like nothing I've ever felt before. 
I whispered to him to set me alight and never let the flames die down, especially not here, not this night. Nestled in each other's arms, our storms collided leaving something beautiful upon the morning's horizon. 

"Early Autumn Nights" 

-TEXT-
I love the way your skin is illuminated by the street lamps and the way
your laugh cuts through the early night air. 
Your fingertips touch mine and every sensation in the moment are magnified
tenfold. 
Your amber eyes are alight with passion and your cheeks tinted with sheepishness. 
You pull me toward you and I realise that I’m not immune to you, but my first instinct is 
to lie. 
I ache to taste something real, inhale all your secrets and exhale into you all of mine.
I jump onto your back and you giggle as I wrap my legs around your hips. 
I feel your muscles tense around me and I gently nuzzle your neck. 
Take me to that place that you dwell and let your darkness and mine combine.

Together we can set fire to the skies and make love in the light.  

-The Light Between the Trees-
I found empty promises stitched into every memory of you.
I waded through nights of cold and explored the echoing corridors of time trying to 

find the words you spoke to me. 

I writhe in agony as I realise not one of those smiles was for me. 
I remain breathless, but for far different reasons, wondering if I'll exhale today.
