Hope for more Than individuality Amongst the throng Of arachnids To be the organism And know what meaning means Power and fame Provide the human ego With fleeting satisfaction Love is a connection Outside ourselves If real Not man evolved lust Energy between us is palpable Passion amplifies Yet we are all lonely And yearning souls Trapped in a shell of life

Beyond the Shell
Am I happy Am I not happy Am I afraid Am I not afraid Do I believe Do I not believe Can I make it happen Can I not make it happen Is this all there is Is this not all there is Can someone else make me feel Can no one else make me feel Will I act Will I not act I will die

Yes, No, Die
I am a fool To think my consciousness is unique My purpose somehow important That I can alter a greater course That my perspective has more depth My connection prescient To deem my view important So in the end how might I be satisfied At my time of passing Can I be satiated through goodness Fulfilled by experiences Comforted through love To fill myself with hope My connection part of a oneness That I have lived meaningfully That my spirit will live on My energy in tune with a greater being To fool myself with hope

Hope
Am i the water Drifting, flowing within the mass Sometimes rushing rapidly At times stagnant Or am I a rock Slowly being eroded by constant pressure Or a leaf Cascading wildly until saturated

The Stream
My body is connected To a sensory mind As the heart beats faster Tense with fear, or excitement Like a wild animal frozen before flight Until I center Breathing...into...strength Of recognition and oneness Desiring the connectivity To be beyond me A soul collective Despite differences and greed Difficult enough to find love In a partner, or friend Let alone the thought Of omnipresence between us all As I struggle to tune myself

Body & Mind
My mind is disconnected While my body feels I don't feel A vessel for a journey Occasionally stirred by touch Or deep lostness in my eyes Like looking at a flame Dancing dangerously for fleeting moments Alive as it exhausts itself In continual asphyxiation How deep thought can go Beyond animalistic instinct Cascading like a stream Wandering an infinite universe Yearning for understanding Of some greater purpose Wanting of some feeling That is sensed beyond senses Yet the mind degenerates With the vessel to which it is tied Like the flame extinguished After only a moment Just a grain of sand Passing through an endless hourglass

Mind & Body
A love formed in creation As oneness becomes individuality Unconditional in nature Through a miraculous connection Bourne by challenge of reliance And want of independence A love that endures separation A beautiful rainbow Seen clearly after rain Through generational reflection Timeless like a mountain And ever flowing stream

Mother's Love
Moments Of a lifetime In a lifetime Passing Like traffic Blurred or sharp Forgotten or framed Valued Hoarded Lost Over-ripened Preserved For a lifetime Through a lifetime Moments

Moments
Eternal Fleeting Rushing all of it Most valuable yet wasted Patient Lost Running out Unrecoverable Permanent Unforgiving Going to end and then there will be nothing what the **** am I doing?

Time
Dive into my mind Silent exploration Of this universe A black hole Of infinite depth and unknown boundary Where I am trapped By overthinking Caged from free flying Jailed by self-imposed law Lost in the vast expanse Unable to see Weightless yet weighted Awake but not awakened In the absence of gravity No direction is clear A conscience without compass At light speed, unmoving
