An angel, Guardian of our little Big adventures. A boat for Carrying precisely two Of every kind: The stories You read. The games you still play. Auspicious one. You create Lego masterpieces that I rarely see. But I do See an Ark. Protecting all.

Ark
You're a shard of broken light That barely escaped the night. You're that eery howling wind In the house you're living in. You're the ache upon your back Reminding you what you lack. You're a shadow of yourself From the light of someone else. You're a broken man inside, Yes, humility; reside.

Broken
I am. I do. I always have. To self pity to to try laugh. I guess we all do. We have to. Drown the past and wait for the new. Or Drown the past and drown ourselves too.

Dweller
I closed that door. Barred and barricaded it, Left a bomb inside, I didn’t wait to know it had Set off. I haven’t stopped stopping, Staring through the small windows, Everything blinded; myself folded. A tornado streaming through my past, This gush sets me free, flying uncontrollably Somewhere else. The more I fall, the more I find the shards of that broken world. I let them skewer my mind, imagining them mended back together. I closed that door. Yet here I stand its way, a silhouette. Neither here nor there.
