The waves of time knock me back,
the salty water of memories make me choke and as a day passes for each moment in this catastrophe;
The struggle to breath lasts a lifetime, the crushing wave shoves me deeper in the darkness,
what once was sweet has turned to salt and as it fills up my lungs, I can no longer scream out for help but drown in the sorrowful ocean of life.
Tangled in the shameful seaweed, they lock me in place, unable to reach that shining surface. It is a struggle to continue, a hard fight that never stops. The darkness that keeps creeping in from the deep, shadowing my whole view as I lose my way around in the vast sea of guilt.
The laughter of rays shine through making the heavy water light and clear. I swim for I am free and look toward the surface and once again breath.
Floating is freeing, the coolness of words cover me; I am free, I am nowhere, I am everywhere, I am no one, I am everyone, I am me.
Gasping for that fresh breath, feeling the hot future shine brightly in sky, the clouds of hope are visible, they shine with the sun and take form into beautiful creatures.
The waves still come, for they are eternal, the current of pain drags me farther away, isolating
But the need for survival pushes me forward.

The hairs on my arm rise,
Shivering everywhere
Teeth clattering
Breath fogs up in the air.
A blanket of cold wraps around,
seeping through the winter jacket all the way to the bones
Feet and hands starting to feel numb
Cheeks and nose are red
Ears are protected from the fluffy hat.
Boots crunching on the ground
Jacket is stiff with the cold
mittens failing at keep the hands warm
everything is cold,
so cold you can't feel a thing
gets harder to move
legs are getting numb,
****** of pain with every step
slowly getting tired
wanting to stop
but knowing that you can't
Cold is everywhere,
Wind starts to pick up
Makes everything worse
closing your eyes hoping that it wont make you colder.
A light in the distance
but it's far away
very far away
Everything is numb now,
The cold is there but now its starting to get taken over by heat
very hot heat
almost painful
Arms are frozen
Legs are burning
Lungs are sore
Wind is getting stronger
but it doesn't matter anymore

I'm a lonely being
Who craves the touch of others
It seems that I will live a lonely life
I have friends and family
but I don't have anyone to call my own
To have some one to hold
To kiss
To say I love you
"You will find someone some day" They say
I know
But every once in while I would like to be assured
That someone will be there
even if it's just for a little while.

My feelings are a big mess
They are scrambled together and I can't undo them
They will go up
and they will go down
They will change like the weather:
Feel love one minute and hate the next
Sad and then happy
lust and disgust.
Changing and changing
I try to explain but I just end up hurting you
which hurts me
I try to fix them
to get them in order
and I come to a conclusion
maybe I'm just not the one for you.

I could sleep forever
Just dream about things that I wish could come true.
I could fly
I could do magic
I can meet people who I have always wanted to meet.
I can sleep for eternity
I can escape reality
Forever, I can do whatever I want.
Maybe things appear out of thin air
Change things with just one thought.
Don't have to worry about being late,
I can arrive at whenever.
I just have to watch out for nightmares.

Deep breath
Head held up high
walk forward
One step, two step
Shake off the nerves
breath
continue
Three, Four
Look forward
think positive
breath
almost there
just one more to go
five, six... Stop
Deep Breath
And Go

Needing more
and more
and more
The craving that never seizes
just wanting more
Waiting, wanting, needing
more more more
pacing back and forth
back and forth
The need for so many things,
wanting to cry out
for just the taste of that one thing
that gets your blood pumping.
more more back and forth more
Can be so many things
have different meanings for so many people.
All we need is the satisfaction that will put out the need for our addiction

How does someone think of something so beautiful,
as something like a poem or a book.
How does one simply write their feelings down like they were breathing?
It takes time for some, but others only mere minutes.
The beauty of what some people make
the flow of the words that relate to so many...
How does one accomplish it?
How can a person achieve something so beautiful?
with just a flick of the wrist

Friends can be found in many places
Friends can be your family
They can be there for you when no one else is.
They bring you joy and belonging,
They can make you feel like you are important.
When the feelings of loneliness and sadness arrive, your friends
are there to shoo them away.
This is what friends are for
they can your best friends or just people to talk to
They are always by your side,
all you have to do is look beside you.
