A sudden sense of self Came awash over me Could this be the 'I' ... That I am.... An ability to see... me... Can I now be my 'I am' Thats within me Eccentricity The ability To be ...... To see and be Unashamedly My 'I' that I am My me.

I am Me
A fuzzy mind from restless sleep No respite from counting sheep Ideas swirling like alphabet soup Words and letters can't regroup Thick and mirky, a wonderous haze Eyes closed tight against the maze Of thoughts and dreams not yet dreamed Of future worries not yet deemed Less important than unattainable sleep And no respite from counting sheep.

Sleepless
Heart felt depths Descend beyond bodies physical self Profound strength Crushing from within A weight we bare Mere mortal souls For loves caress And promises told

Destiny Awaits
Too long to be bound to earthly need When following the spirit can only lead To what we find we ultimately need Is a desire to give and in turn we feed The human need to ultimate greed To give as much as is needed to feed

My 5-7-5 poem
The things we keep close to our hearts And in return reluctant to part Are only things after all And a reminder when we hear the call That we begin our lives with only a breath And leave this world totally bereft Of all the things we have collected But if we truly live are rejected So how do we define what we keep From material things that we seek To fill in gaps of good times past Holding memories in our hearts But if we free ourselves of our worldly things And really live life that experience brings Isn’t that what life’s about after all Live it to the maximum and be enthralled

Things
I scream a silent scream but a whimper escapes I ride the winds in this windless place My spirit is cramped in this mortal shell As I bend and twist in this earthly hell Trapped in a world with freedom of choice But work ever day and have no choice 'Fit into the mould and don't argue.' 'We've made it this way, it's what's best for you!' But the years go by and a restless soul stirs No longer able to hold back the purge A cathartic release, an eminent end As heart felt screams and wild winds blend

Silent Scream
Whim Carefree Within me Ideas abound Feed and make me happy No structure in my head they pound Searching for the one idea that’s profound Capture thoughts as they spiral around unknowing Like alphabet soup swirling all around Rhyming and rhythm they can sound Ideas can not foresee Thoughts will surround Keeps me free Simply Vim
