Burning my core A crackled Fire grows With heavy woods I work to dull it They only feed the flame Reason is without me Though I try my best to cling Any ounce of sanity All this feels in vain Navigating my spirit is an ocean Depths, lows, and highs Creatures frightening Terrifying and kind It all awaits The fire and the wood And the reason and the sanity And the depths, lows, highs And all the creatures in the deep They come from me

Anger and Fear
We made love in your room that day Light pouring through the window A neighbor played "Stand by me" Music travelling over from the next door

That day
Quiet mind, easy thoughts Like wisps of wind Warm sun Against soft skin

Wisps of wind
I want to be present and thinking about the world Not worrying about myself+my mental illness+wellbeing. Maybe I can find that out in the flowers

Find it in the Flowers
If I look intently toward the sun Eyes wide, so wide. The voom of gold rushing through. Circles. Dots. Freckles. Light. Ah, to stare into the sun.

If I Look Intently
A running stream of consciousness flows into the meadows The bright and green made brightest by the sun Blooms, flowers, bushes and bugs exist together here When the large hand Death comes With its dirt, dry fingers twists the stream of the spout off shut Goodbye to the freshly flowing water, and blooms and flowers bushes and the bugs Sweet dreams to sweet consciousness Forever and always

A running stream
To challenge one another Impossible ways Sending our spirits into space Down to hell And back again A love now tried and true Enlightenment at its finest In my lovers arms Soon enough, we'll find Nirvana

In the deep end
The sky cries While the sun shines behind Is it you up in Heaven Grieving us so?

Is it you up in Heaven?
The sky is crying Gentle tears While a song of sorrow Sorrow and yearning Sings from my spirit

Song of Sorrow
To run as children Joyous laughs Fields of green Surrounded by trees To slap so vile Rage and rage and rage To love and know so deeply A world only we know A bond only we hold Everything in me Is also in you To share so much of who we are How can that be separated?
