Kindred
Enraptured by your descent
Of consciousness and exhaustion
Beneath twilight's destruction
Into a renewed dawn's breath
Anticipation gleans my
Fixation upon your resting
Senses, leaving steadily
Our realm of shameless madness
Into another, far beyond
My grasp, my failing reach
Could that I join you there
Would we ever wake from sleep?
Now I await your sudden
Exhalation and brightened shift
Like a cloud burst with sun
Rupturing through the mist
For your mirth is my mirth
Repurposed and repossessed
And what haunts your health
Shares my shadow--kindred to death.
Changes of the heart
I put my trust in a love i thought would always be there. Even when I felt as if i didn't care oh how unaware I was in belief he had in me. The time we shared scared and alone I was in this sinking ship; I kept putting holes through bottled up wood word work and hadn't seen the pain and disbelief in his eyes as I grieved my pained carpet stains. Spilling only buckets of excuses to maintain the courage to smile, all the while broken pieces of my windows piled up beyond the help of a mop. Band-aids a friend to my fingers indeed but the bleeding never stopped the beating of my heart for you until i found a broom.
Crime of Passion
I will always remember
the day you said:
I love you.
I was a fool
to believe you.
Now, I lay half conscious
on the kitchen floor
blood seeping from
the knife wound
which you forced
into my bare skin.
Memories of you and I
run through my mind
because after all:
I will always love you.
Maybe a part of me
thought I deserved the pain.
Fall
Love;
A belief,
A truth,
A lie.
One word;
Many meanings:
Friendship,
Family,
Romance,
Tears,
Passion,
Pain.
Sometimes meaningless,
For true love is only real if returned,
And unrequited love will only hurt,
Burn you to colourless ashes,
So you forget there was ever beauty in your heart.
Yet love heals,
Love gives a reason to live,
Creates hope in a hopeless shell,
Gives life to ashes,
Binds together broken pieces,
So a work of art is made.
Love is weakness,
Love is strength,
A perfect paradox,
An eternal force,
A momentary sensation;
We fear and crave it,
A toxic drug,
Invisible and silent.
For in the end,
Love fades,
Love dies,
We fall forever,
Arms never catch us,
The ground envelops every soul,
We're left infinitely and utterly alone...
There will always be an over in lover,
An end in friends,
Every family grows apart,
So is the high worth the fall...
Shattered
Once a heart is broken:
it can never be mended,
or remain constant
with a steady rhythm.
Our hearts are fragile,
like thin glass shards
whose pieces are nearly:
invisible.
It is impossible to forget
the feeling of our hearts,
shattering and falling
as we fear to get close
to another heart
who will know:
the truth.
Immortality
A pound of gold isnt as satisfying as a cup of water,
The effort inside can be enthusiastic but the pains are traumatic.
Forever and ever isn't the reciprocal of immortality,
Neither familiarity with love can make it immortal.
Longevity is a gift not a treasure,
Death resistance is never pills for eternity.
Moral doctrine is the only recipe for long life,
Quest for Trinity creates a trivial deities.
Immortality is a tale for Creators not creation.
First steps to stepping
Open your ears if you eyes can't see the fear
Close your mouth if you can't talk the talk
Today I'll be who I'll be , standing tall nine feet past oak Treez
Think about what I give you and apply it too THE best of your ability
Stay strong, Hold on the ride has just begun,
Pay that ticket and take a ride with life
Funhouse Mirrors Line These Streets
How do you show someone that what they hold true is a Mirage. Self-inflicted. An abstraction of Truth. A Ghost outlining Smoke. Because if they reach for their Mirage, it will evaporate: Smoke moves with the wind and it is uncontrollable. Therefore, how can one rely upon one's projection of such? When they themselves live and exist and identify within a delusion called "Self," how do you cut their layers of Smoke so as to expose the Truth? And when their pupils themselves are funhouse mirrors, an attempt to change their perception becomes a battle with a Ghost.
But it is imperative.
