Lost in the haze Whisked right by words Slammed left by actions Thirst for clarification From the source Hunger for sincerity From the touch Back and fourth Back and fourth Soon you will see That is not for me Refuse the haze Protected by my own You can watch me go

Actions
I need you I don’t know who you are, But I long for you You, who will fight for me You, who will jump to see over these walls And brick by brick you will break them down I need you You can see the things I do not realize You can speak the words I do not know I need to hear You, You can make me feel You make me WANT to feel I need you to help me I can get there someday, Maybe. But first, I need you

You
Minds cannot be set By passers by, They know not depth, Nor soul, nor reasons why So said, next sunrise, They shall venture, Unbeknownst, of the rays With un-found luster Sayings that lack heart Must be kept in the mind For they are facile, A toxic grime A journey never taken, Is a picture never seen, A message never heard, A warmth never felt, And a story never shared If you hold desire To see the unseen, To hear the unheard, To feel the unfelt, And to know the unknown Then, set sail Do it quickly Horizons hold So few tomorrows You may begin to grasp The depth, the soul And the reasons why You’ll be more then a Passer by

Passer By
Like the swing lingering from the tree Our past is all you can see Spiraling down the winding path of insanity An exit, you must get Our end has far been met You put kind words on paper Even wrote them to a melody, Filled with flash and flattery You even say, you love me Yet, this endeavor is vain I am sad to say, You’ve already had your day No longer the same, You wouldn’t know more than my name Each day the cracks grow bigger, The breaks stronger, The limb weaker, Time to cut the swing down Before it crashes to the ground

No Turning Back
Many a days have passed Since our eyes met last, My heart you have, still Don’t let go, Don’t drag me along, Mud, muck and leaves, Scratched up knees, Am I doing this to myself? Am I rolling through, Or is it you? Don’t let go, Lift me higher, I want you, You made me smile, You made me laugh, With you, I sweat joy I cried happy, Mud, muck and leaves, Pick me back up please.

Dragging
Your slanderous comments, burned in my brain, carved on my wrists, tattooed on my forehead. The laughter, always forgotten The tears, always on hand Unable to execute perfection Trying to beam, You thieve my light Etching away my soul, My rock, no, But the shovel, you are Deeper and deeper I go Daunting, the route my mind treks, A menacing sight to see

Shame
Closer it is coming, Crashing fills my ears Alas, it is here My toes are grazed by water Pink and orange steal my sight My hair is taken in the wind, It is brisk to my core, A hand on my shoulder, Another on my leg, I am taken over. My foot sweeps the shore Lifted into the air Arabesque, achieved. The wind knocks the stress away And blows happiness my way I turn to see who is there, Nothing, I call out to them, Nothing. Darkness steals from me the pink and orange, Only for me to see one glinting star, Suddenly, I know, It was my Liam, And he loved me so

Incessant Love
Evade my memories, you never will, no longer do I see the slope of your nose, the arch of your brows, the curl of your lashes. Feel your lips, I do, see your eyes, I may, but your face, evades me so. From green to orange, The snow, it drowns, Life comes around. Four times, this pattern, Evade my memories, you never will Feel your grasp, I do Taste your words, I may still, your love, evades me so. From green to orange, The snow, it drowns, Life comes around Five times this pattern, Evade my memories, you never will.
