NOT DIMINISHED It rightfully died A few years back Perhaps… not death.. Just a slumber… just a lack Lack of knowing where to put The little pieces The only thing I own My portion of self Yet even that.. Is borrowed some would say God made this slice And I do my best to give it away. Hands open Mouths open I pour and I feel robbed Empty and yet still overflowing An Ocean where no one swims Movement …. That is lost Eyes turn and silently ***** … such a cost. Funny how I feel it turn Like the slumber is finished A starting line with no runners The line.. Still not diminished. Tf 2/2016

Not Diminished
Sharpen my spirit. We miss it Like it’s not even there Or that we don’t even …. Care. But fools we are We feel it But we hide in the noise And lose it in the chaos Because it’s too big to feel Too much to …. Take in. So deny and turn But It plucks me like a string And I vibrate I step closer and.. It’s lonely How lonely you must be Your hearts edges must sag Still you burn You burn and bother How unworthy are we Of your efforts. It should straighten us It should shame us But we just laugh.. Until we swell and brake Into pathetic pieces.. My spirit sharpens In lonely corners I find peace Tf2/2016

Truth
FOOLISH QUEST I step over you In my foolish quest No time to stop Hungers tug .. an impatient guest Numb fingers Know not what they touch I stretch and reach At nothing …. Much You haven’t moved You continue to stare I can’t be bothered.. Still I’m seeing you… there. Hands turn up… empty Nothing left in this place Familiarities teeth Now wanting a taste I step further.. A change of mind Un-tied…. by old thoughts From another.. Time. Moving on in The hunger withdraws Not even sure What I think… I saw. I border you now And comprehend it all My foolish quest Finds a higher.. Call. Tf2/16

Foolish Quest
U. You’ve no idea Your absence.. My poverty I can plagiarize myself Of….. the growing need in me Follow proper channels Ignore the piece In me …. Your presence Is… my release. Tf2/16

slumber
THE DROWNING Inside the… drowning Where you can’t stay afloat. Life has no preserver Just … Routines .. filling minutes that Rob you of air. Beneath .. You just want to breathe Just want to be Something more Than everything to everyone one Left with nothing No thing And yet your song screams To be sung Your words spill Just to be written Your arms stretch To merely …. Hold But there is no Moment waiting. No song.. No words Empty arms… And The stone sinks With No one …watching No one …Reading the ripples Of what it meant….. Tf2/2016

The drowning
Sticky I crossed your darkend path And felt how … sticky you were. Roped with irritations Everything… just clinging. I watched you Unknowingly chase The tail that is your own Amused.. Like a juvenile. Unable to shed your malignancy …of choice Everything is your trigger Clock waits… loudly. ********* blame You remain.. Wide eyed Looking for reason To explain affect. The presence of you Films me.. I step away.. And brighten. Tf 2/2016
