Awakened Nightmare
Running great distance
Searching for neverending space
Awakened I scream
I'm still bound in this place.
The ringing of the phone
The sound of the TV
There's pounding at the door
I'm all alone,
No one answers the phone
Running downstairs,
I open the door
A figure wrenches in,
A gun goes to my head
In one more second,
My mind will turn to lead.
At last I've found freedom! Neverending space!
Awakened, I scream.
I'm still bound in this place.
Enlightened
The world spins without me
And it's impossible to land.
I can't go in a circle
That I don't understand!
There's no joy in sorrow
Unless you take them side by side
You think there's no way to live
Until you take death for a ride.
I watch from your reflection,
Seen like broken glass
All the things you hate to tell
Are things I don't need to ask.
Taking for granted all offered
Freely- because you so desperately
Need to be fulfilled. . .
Lacking more than what I don't have,
The gift is being killed.
Growing Up
It all seemed to happen in one day
In love I was,
In love I am!
This is something my mind still can't span.
Some things used to be shady,
Now the night is clear. . .
My eyes have been opened
I can finally hear.
I feel so old,
Yet don't know how!
My life is crazy young,
Because I only know the now.
Stepping on thin ice
Just to prove it won't hold
I'm told that it's too hot,
But it's not even cold!
16 down,
How many to go?
Life is so fast,
And death is too slow.
Taking Action
Trying to try
Living to live
Loving to love
Giving to give
Contemplating contemplation
Falling far away
Bored with the boring
Staying just to stay
Breathing without purpose
Hating every breath
Riding every wind
Dying every death
Spinning understanding
Driving every edge
Bringing down a mountain
Breaking every pledge.
Uninspired Poet
There are sticks on the pavement
Love is in the air
Flowers sink a pot
There are tangles in my hair
My mind is fenced
Destruction overruled
The car drives away
And my mind is fueled
Following the beat
An arms' length away
My talent is definitely flying today!
The sound of an engine
And trees in the wind
Is like the rock n roll "pollution"
Playing in my head
With uninspired moments like these,
life never dies
Not even in death. :)
Wordless
Words can discern
Words will comprehend
Words inspire
A word will be my end
Words will break chains
Words break hearts
Words often come undone
A word can split apart
Words can distort truth
Words will understand
Words will underestimate
A word can take a stand
Words lose themselves
Words that have no mind
Words crush beyond belief
Yet a word can seem so kind.
Words can dull the coals
Words will burn coals bright
Words leave me wordless
I need more words to write.
