Baptized in death incarnate, shown the worlds reality at a age of inspiration, with dreams dance upon the wings of butterflies in fields of daisy's, ******* the nectar of life, to sustain the biological imperative, that everything is connected beyond life and death. Merge pen and ink, upon the fallen trees, show the world, the vulnerabilities of a soul lost in the shadows, were light fights the darkness to escape to another day, beyond the pages you write, beyond internal dialogue of devils and angels upon your shoulders. Shower your soul, in the tears of angels, who have lost their wings and laid to rest upon the battleground, the lives of men, to stain sacred ground with life sustenance, every breath a battle you must tell now, so they are remembered in the pages of history Purify this ground, with the ink within your veins, poet, rise from the ashes of reality, sprinkle the air with stardust, of fallen souls, in languid waves of desperation to live again, beyond the tragedy of death you've witnessed, here today. entitle, designate and cleanse this world a new, so every heart may know, deep within the recess of darkness within your eyes, incandescent flames burn the birth of a poet

Birth Of A Poet
Every question pontificated upon deaf ears, ear marked in outer space drifting aimlessly to distant stars, where shadows reign in open hearts that betray our silence in milliseconds Basic recourse, every letter of every word inscribed in memories of dreams of some joey loves dawson fantasy. the unrequited notation that every syllable betrays my own self-confidence, my duality of existence to live but not to have lived and so it goes that every question comes with hours upon days of internal self dialogue, over analysis of every gesture, every word, hidden meanings and double speak, that I have to find such betrayal in something as little as a Solemn smile, but the question remains what does it all mean? Short of action, long of thought, mindless wandering of distant dreams, that one day I may find, Answers, to every question that such expanded diatribes may ease the pain, and mend the wounds, so that my own existentialist facade may crack and wither to dust in the sands of time, to once and for all I may just be another speck of sand wandering aimlessly between the stars, in a shadowless beauty that is my misery, so that every question comes to conclusion with easy, understandable answers

Every Question
I stood there in darkness, smoke rising from another lit cigarette bellowing out from tarnished lungs stain with tar, from this habit but it could not lower my tension as the moments descended down til white lights enveloped me in a deserted parking lot upon the waterfront memories flooded back, only months ago I thought were locked away within scrambling thoughts and words to say but all I can hear is my heart beating within my chest, pounding upon the walls to escape, to be free from another round of torment but like ice cream in the sun, I melted the moment those emerald eyes met mine lost within them, the world disappeared just me and her once again "I am truly sorry" she says like a ring side bell ringing a knockout I felt my knees go weak, the ground beneath me quaked off put and disoriented, reeling from a 1-2 blow to the head as tears streamed down her face, craving canyons into my mona lisa speechless she left me.

Speechless
Cold dark eyes as pure as the driven snow swallowed in illusion "Don't go" She screams fighting against a world she doesn't understand On hands and knees she gazes upon me begging me to stay Cold dark eyes as pure as the driven snow tied to this illusion she creates an indifferent world where sorrow and misery quantify what love has betrayed in silence tears she cries small as raindrops, as deep as the ocean but as empty as the void within her heart Desperation in her eyes to unravel the mystery, tangled in me beneath the illusion, she cries, silently, all alone

Eyes
this existence is worthless the hollow shell of happiness that i paint upon my face a facade to the world so they won't invade and beat me down with cheery words and fake smiles to numb my pain

Not always
The words we once spoke and what they meant though if only we knew what smiles betray and what our hearts would reveal in time when love was all that remained heard in the silence of our eyes when our gaze no longer lingered but swept to the heavens above for the angels to weep once again

I Still Remember
in blood, sweat and tears a legacy of failure has been sewn upon this ground were legends born and men have died. its the long grey line that connects past, present and future that must endure this legacy where we have to sing first tradition steeped in battle among us every year a new chapter written to the victor goes the spoils along the honor of singing second on this ground here today leaders born, forged and ready for trials ahead beyond the gates of this game of honor whether black, grey and gold or putrid blue and gold 60 minutes locked in battle to forge a bond unbroken by something deeper something greater than one's self

in blood, sweat and tears
Moonlight chorus of broken dreams sung upon distant foreign shores echoing upon the horizon before the ground gives way First a spark now an ember burning bursting into flame beneath our wanting desire, we'll explode lighting the way for dreams to heal Daylight verses of hope dancing upon broken glass lost in silent acquiescence fading upon the wind stretch sands second a current now a charge burning brightly illuminating light in darkness giving our desire merit, we'll fight for hope to be amplified in the hearts of man, anew.

Moonlight chorus
I pose a question does my life hold meaning? it should be easy to ascertain but too many questions remain a quest for life unparalleled yet death holds uncertainties answers about life, and my meaning its Schrödinger's cat for me for i will never know till i look temptation beyond words like a slow undercurrent milking its way along the ocean floor always there and powerful, yet silent until you find yourself within its control twisting and twirling to escape the cycle i find myself in introspective yet distant from reality yearning for the release of despair from regret while the question remains does my life hold meaning
