the blazing sunlight
hides behind the moon at night
the young poet dreams
blood on an old shirt
blankets the wanderer in
his mortality
in a meat coffin
an unknown poet softens
his skeleton bones
heavy golden heart
sinking feelings in debris
decay a lifetime
lifting him gently
the poet writes
to end his tragedy
This energy within me
holding me
exploding me
shaping me
flexing my fists at the darkening corners of my little cave
What’s inside of me
is breaking up
and coming loose in all directions.
Flying again
through this darkness.
Reaching out
touching nothing
and no one.
Disintegration.
This awakening.
This darkness.
Homeless.
Alone.
The light
in this cold and darkened night,
I am.
Like a falling star.
No one knows where we are.
If we are dying, there’s only one way out.
To the lizard, you will appear from above.
An oddly shaped thunderstorm
you are.
And what does a wizard fear?
Always leaking.
Like a flash of lightning.
I draw you, but not like you draw.
A series of campfires.
A gazing technique between lovers.
Suppose life is no more death than anything else.
Everything to catch a raindrop in a leaf.
In this endless moment
find me
Life enters
as a breath.
One more winter
of death.
Climbing down
the evergreen,
one more summer can be seen.
Finding my serenity
reflected on infinity.
Sensing it’s divinity-
intense in it’s immensity.
Feeling every grain of sand
in wonderland
In your life
has anyone touched you inside?
Living in a dream of a moment it seems
that you’ve touched mine.
So far away
I’m looking right into your eyes
in space and in time in a place in my mind,
and it seems we ignored all the signs.
I still believe in you.
My heart tells me it’s true
that I’ve always loved you
in so many things we’ve been through,
because it’s been so long-
and this is our song.
Laying here at night
I remember laying with you.
We’re so far apart dreaming of a fresh start
and you’ve already taken my heart
I still believe in you
My heart tells me it’s true
that I’ve always loved you
in so many things we’ve been through,
because it’s been so long-
and this is our song.
In my encapsulated existence,
I strain to capture this
entire moment of eternity.
.
If I must learn to speak,
I will sing,
and
if I must remember,
I will learn to create
and breathe
.
and in the noise,
.
I pray myself awake-
unsure of the legitimacy of my memory.
I’m just a man made of meat
everyone eats
with a smile.
.
Growing on a rock;
coming into season.
Alive without a reason.
.
The body is sleeping.
.
If the fire grows on, it will consume me.
I tear at it’s beauty.
I was in love before I even knew your name.
I would do it all again for a little more time with you.
.
I do not get the purpose of my life yet
Most of it has been spent alone
It is at these times hopeless that I ask myself
Is this a gift I’ve been shown
Solitude brings wisdom outside looking in from
The hours that most people sleep
A knowledge of life takes hold and thoughts that are real unfold
My soul can be seen because my eyes are deep
I cannot heal all this pain that I feel
These nights that I spend with only me
I slowly suffocate
waiting til morning breaks
it seems like an eternity
Crumbling into your hands
Filter me through your mind
Darkness envelops and you can’t see a thing
Pain is all you will find
I won’t let you go
til death do us part
You have changed my life
You’ll always have my heart
