what a shame

My mind is ablaze with thoughts in which I don't know. A foreign landscape left barren for some time. Returning brings troublesome memories. Though I fear a potential diservice to what could be all of humanity if left unexplored. So I venture onward through a world in which I've left behind. A conscious thought lay not yet found. Perhaps one will awake a new day with just what they were seeking on the tip of their tongue. Or perhaps sleepless hours past dusk will float into a new dawn with no resolution to this new world in sight. So they trudge forward a new day. Once again shutting the door to this world. Forcing them to awake the body and return to the world most common and comfortable. What regrets lie there are unknown. And again one is silent in mind, awake in body. Just were society has placed them. A shame. Truelly. One might never know what could hath wrought from the journey.

Her 1-27-14

I loved a soul
Fell in sync with a forgiving heart
People judged what they didn't know
Didn't look past it as more than show

Jealousy rose,
Battles were won
Yet both stood still in chaos
Unshakable in a world refusing to love

I said goodbye, for the night
Yet impact broke and struck fear in her
She wouldn't look me in the eye,
For fear her eyes just couldn't lie
Of the pain coursing inside

I collapsed under pressure, just couldn't breathe
The resonance of what one word expressed

I could not fathom her to view me as capable
Of leaving behind in one solemn goodbye
Through print on a screen,
For I could never break a love so deeply ingrained in such profound fate

Not All There Is -June 21st 2013

How can you say that's all there is,
If you've never looked past your window,
Never seen the view of London by night,
Brazil at sunrise, a Pacific tide wash in,
Leaving a million glistening gems of sand behind
How can you say that's all there is?

How can you say that's all there is,
If you've never kissed a girl in Paris in the rain,
Never held on to your love through the streets of Italy
Had a chance to hold a life in your hands,
You there only chance to make it through,
How can you say that's all there is?

How can you say that's all there is,
If you've never truelly loved,
Never smiled when all you saw was darkness,
Because you closed your eyes and saw their face
How can you say that this is all there is?

Try me, dare me, tell me,
That is is all there is,
For I, I will always prove you wrong

Loosing Grips - January 21st, 2013

I'm holding out for what's been lost
Loosing time, suffering the cost
I shake the hand of today,
Having to loosen the grip of my yesterday

Saying goodbye to the unexplained gaps in time
A childhood lost due to an I identified crime
I try to move on everyday, but I can't
Giving up on seven years, the constant internal rant

Words, memories, thoughts, constantly fill my mind
Patterns left hidden over great expanses of time
Things that go undefined.
The only truths lying in traps of great deception

I can't let go, not now, not yet
I need an explanation, not a bounty to forget
I can't forgive without comprehension
I need someone's help, and willing to pay the pension

Your words -June 6th, 2012

Words fill my mind
Silence fills the night
Darkness fills the shadows
And your support fills my life

You guided me into a new frame of mind
Helped me find something I thought I just couldn't find

Your arms wrap around me
Fills me with a security I had lost
Gave me a purpose, gave me a cause

I don't know what I would have done
I don't know what I would have found
I don't know who I would have become, if you hadn't been around

Now you've taught me so much,
And it's time for you to go.
I'll always look back on your words,
Your thoughts will forever light my soul

With love,
      Your protege

Simple Silence -June 5th, 2012

Simple words can create a sentence
A simple thought can create a change
A simple speech can create a revolution
A simple mistake can create a catastrophe

Our words, our thoughts, our actions,
Have more power then we'd like to believe
Hold power beyond the threshold in which they are said
They linger somewhere, were we can't find them again.

Use this power for the better
Create the change you wish to see,
Start a chain reaction with your words
Give a thought to feed listening ears.
And always be who you aim to be.
