American Hi :)
If I could open up I would let all of these feelings out. I’d let them scatter and fall and sink to and through the oceans of endless pasts. I’d let them live behind me forever where they belong and should have resided from the start. No more aimless wondering, no more thinking of ways to cope. Finally being able to converge onto what truly matters most. Happiness slightly ahead of my grasp, inching away as I feel the comfort and warmth that seeps from it’s aura. There only waits a void of incomplete, unreachable depths, dark as the blind stare into shut eyelids. Squeezing out every possible ounce of light. Sometimes it seems easy to let go and be lost in the abyss of helplessness to be alone with nothing but forgotten shadows. The complexity so simple to understand but less likely to be obtained. With a constant urge to grasp and feel. To devour the feelings of endless torment to one day enjoy the soft sweet touch of what we all wish to achieve, to contain, to supply. I do not perceive the notions of which build to create the enigma which we seem to seek intuitively. A naturalistic view that fuels our will to continue, to thrive, to understand. One day, far away, or closer than that, the end will be the start of what we once did not have and what we will never choose to release.

Binaural Consciousness
Long talks with pointless plots Words we never heard shimmer in the wind The cold breeze with attempts to break us free you and me Snow-white woke us up from a middays night to a rare of sights Highlights of picture perfect memories floating in my head Giving flight to what lay dormant for so long, that which I have yet said You've placed reasonable doubt in actions I've left undealt But look to the sky for my downfalls may come clear and high as Orion's Belt Something struggling slowly stuttering to breath life once again A flicker set forth gives hope of strength now and then Tell me once more how impractical it'd be to live and not know Through trials and tribulations though not appealing is how we'll grow Living on a clock its a ticking time bomb Condensing each moment but it's my time I thrive on Stop a moment **** the timer wide eyed take a breath and hold it Remember remember before its gone a piece to life's puzzle no need for force or brawn Tender in all you've rendered complete for most of what's remembered It's the little things like when and where not who or why just that we were there No explanation needed for a proper teaching of how you should be treated true Though human err exists I swear I'm not made of this and that I promise you For a gift is what time is in this moment temporarily pleasant or even heavenly for a peasant Embracing the ticking of every hours races because Time with you is no better time than thee present.

Time is Thee Present
Mental debates of moving on and Leaving the past, she dreams Of working things out to make Them last, she’s all too familiar With solitude, its wonders, Its dedication to her companionship They walk hand in hand Looking, staring at silhouettes, still vivid and bright as the day that she first opened Her eyes to Dalia smirks, truly hurt She watches in awe As he carefully places The pieces to the puzzle of A black and white field Strategies flow easily from behind The dam that is a set of porcelain eyes Sworn to secrecy only for self fulfillment Along the checkered floor she explored Boundaries she had never encountered He leads her as his pawn of choice Through torturous escapades against Rookie creatures and staggering Horsemen They wane on her chances of successfully Obtaining the crown of glory He pushes her forward with a touch Soft and soothing, no reason To doubt his reasoning She gives up the greatest of gifts, trust In his hands she quietly moves With no complaints, forward Out toward a troublesome mine field With every space she’s placed in She’s laced with waste traced with her Demise, he plays the creator, How humorous it seems The slightest sense of secure attachment Provides a false sense of security The way he touches her persuades Her he’ll never let her fall In his embrace she doesn’t see The smirk of disgust as his face Twisted, wretched and gruesome Grins at the only pleasure she provides him Empty bliss he can only wish to fill His grasp, once tender and warm Clenches down on her with splintering pain With silent screams of despair She comes closer to her peril Glimmering crown, in the scope of her sight The only sense of hope left in her mind The next move can be her last With only hopes of a clear road As he once again guides her Calm and steady with the kindness He once displayed when she Naïvely dreamt of how her life Truly should become Her struggles slowly ease away From the pain she once felt Never showed it even in the Biggest battles he lead her through Now she lay motionless alongside her Fallen obstacles in complete darkness Six cold silent walls surround Her in her slumber until another Cruel puppeteer falls across The coffin of demise and despair
