Canadian I am not really a poet, but I have a love for writing, and latley I have taken to writing poems. Most probably are not that good, but I feel like sharing them and I hope you enjoy at least one of them.
I'm a nervous wreck. A hollow shell, A lifeless Lazarus brought Forth from the grave, Forced to keep on living an unnatural course of life. There is no joy. There is no light. All that remains is gray. Sun and Moon have morphed to one Barring down from the heavens. Forever engulfed in this gloom, unable to move from where I lay. Yet the cell is evermore unbearable. Stuck in this never ending purgatory Where there is no hope Only bland consistency. Excitement: dead. Senses: numb. Limbs grow gradually lifeless. Yet I cannot die, A part of the soul clings to the past Hopes for a return, To the way it was once. Yet life will never be the same. I seek to change, yet how can I well so dead? I want it to end All of it Just. End.

There is a girl I know Her heart encased behind a wall of stone Hurt in the past Looking for nothing in the present Leaving the future unknown. When I learned these things I knew that I had become ensnared Needing to see what lay beyond, And so I took the call to break through the blockade. Everyday I chip away chisel in hand and Each day I hear over the wall her heart beat Such a beautiful melody! A rhythm crying to be free, yet Veiled, suffocated by blocks of marble Like a diamond wrapped in granite. Except for two hazel orbs that Grant me the ability to see, Clear as day, The garden glistening perfectly in the morning dew. And it gives me hope that my task is not in vein.

Girl Behind The Wall
This is my plea, My one call for help. Please save me! Save me from my boring drivel called life, I fear I have run out of the words to say. No longer do thought flow free from my mind, Instead they lay lost in the sea blandness. Save me! Save me! Rekindle my spark! Ignite the dormant coals of my soul. Let my words flow from my brain, Give me more to say then just hello and goodbye.

A Plea
Come and travel with me Together we will journey to lands never imagined We will see sights that could never be Side by side our creativity shall be awakened Take my hand in yours I will show you everything you could dream We will crawl through the rabbit hole on all fours And we shall follow the river downstream And if ever we reach the end of the ledge Hold my hand tight as I cling to yours Then you and I shall soar over the edge Safely carried across to foreign shores Then when our adventure has reached its end and we lay I will look into your glittering eyes, and you into mine, both hoping to stay And as we rest in our bliss I shall summon the courage and lean in for a kiss
