Poetry: it’s the annihilation of discouragement The projection of your inner self It is my nourishment, my self-expression, My correlation of constellations between your sky and mine. We thrive on its beat Like the very air that we breathe. it is what keeps us from defeat, gives us the strength to stand on our feet. It enlightens us! With the beauty of a magnificent spark With light through the dark! It is the glisten in your eyes, it is the glare of despise, It is eternal hope in disguise, Let it free! Let it rise! Let it see… That this world…is much more than a prize It is the beauty within our cries. It is the beauty found in the skies So don’t hide in disguise any longer! Make the ties intertwine your eyes with mine. Hear the pleas, see the sighs. For the sake of our world… Describe poetry… Inscribe poetry… With your very own cries. Make it yours, just as it is... mine.

Gaping eyes breathing the night-cool air. despite the dark night skies there is no room for despair. the time will come the time when the sun rises above, and mends the coldness in your heart. light will fill the gaping eyes, to glisten the pupils amidst the dark lonely night in the skies in the gaping eyes.

Calming sounds of water droplets, pounding on the floors. Tiny water droplets running over people, running over mountains. Blizzards of powder whitening the peaks of glorious mountains, and slowly, covering the tracks of this violent world. The tides softening the cliffs up above evenning the jagged edges. The jagged edges of humanity cannot be softened or overcome unless we realize that united, like water droplets flowing on the floor, we can overcome whatever comes, like the blizzards at the top of the world.

Freedom lives. Freedom dies. Freedom resides In the hopeful eyes Of the masses. So blind, So kind, Its all a matter of time Before we see That freedom lies Where we dare not set our eyes. Indiscrete, A ruckus so loud It speaks before it sees, It runs before it walks, and so it falls. All is in the hands of freedom, Your life and mine. Without it we lie In a catatonic state Waiting for the food To land on the plate; Not living, Not free, Loving the near-sighted views In our eyes, Knowing… There is nothing more To live for, When freedom dies.

When Freedom...
Falling down the Twisted fools, pools of them Just waiting for more of them Demanding attention, but you don’t Realize it is pointless that When in the pools of the fools You become one of them Denying the existence of lying Denying the existence of crying Erasing the existence of your brain Not using it, leaving it Just wasting it. Destroying it, or letting it Be controlled by the fools In the pools… We are all tools Building the structure Of a deceased infrastructure, Without morals. Quarrels over land Designed to rid the world of those who follow, Follow the cause no god can swallow Death is rising, Afraid… Of losing its role in our lives When we all just die, by our own secular hands.

Pools of Fools
The whispering wind blowing in my ear, bouncing off your voice, which I want to hear. It distracts me like the cells on my brain discovering a new voice inside my head; not letting me listen to your soft voice instead. My eyes receiving the reflecting light from the objects right in my sight receiving the glistening light of your eyes, unleashing an explosion of colors that only compare to you and I. The nose on my face gets a whiff of your scent and like a hound dog on your trail, I find you but the smells around don’t distract me like the reflecting light from your jewel-toned eyes. Your taste has penetrated my tongue and with it a satisfying sting like the sting of an arrow crusading through my heart, and revolting the soldiers of love so that they don’t care about anything else but conquering your heart. That’s the way you make me feel but when I touch and feel your warm soft skin, it all seems irrelevant. My senses don’t respond around you they ignore me and just distort around you, delivering a blow of abstract sensations and giving me a hypnotic observation, in which I get lost in your world. My mind obliterated by your presence, and when you wake me with your light, our eyes get caught in an eternal dance funneling my sight into your eyes, wondering… "Why don't I do something?"

Senses
Your tendencies to feed us white lies make some feel safe. You know that, but the truth is: no one is safe from you. Indiscrete imperialist nations taking over each other, yet they are so discrete dropping bombs on the innocent and saying “bon apetite.” **** your sugar-coated ideals blind-folding the already ignorant eyes distorting my views of human kind; making me wish I wouldn’t be a member of this primitive, violent race. Beasts with the dangerous advantage of intelligence; feeling superior to all life on earth, even each other. Beating each other over colors, Beating each other over ideals, Killing each other over pointless emotions produced by chemicals in the brain. Behind the curtain of our repetitive lives, lies the world so easily hid under the glass, but people turn away from the truth; afraid to realize that you are driving us to our Doom. Dancing in the rain of freedom, instead of drowning myself in the priceless, suspending ocean. In your perspective, complete freedom is too much to handle, but I sit here writing my thoughts, delivering the truth Of the freedom within ourselves; while you think of ways to give us illusions of choice and freedom that prevent us from discovering the truth within ourselves and releasing the truth behind your masked self. Shoving in our face free buttons that say, “Freedom isn’t Free.” War is a business! So of course, You want us to fight to be free.

Doomed by YOU
The mist obscured my view, I couldn’t see anything but my hands. The air was breezy and cool And I had goose bumps on my arms. Although my sight was blurry, I could see the EYES of the woman with fury. She stared at me, without eyes, but I knew she was looking at me. I could sense her sight. She was hungry for them. I could see why she was furious. All this time she had been a part of them And yet she had been starved. Starved of the reality she couldn’t see without the EYES. Starved of the world around her. Stripped… of the beauty… within her.
