I may be dead inside,
I may be rotting,
But Ill keep walking,
until I find you again

The Journey I take is an Arduous one.
Redemption.
And only by the toil of my Blood, Sweat, and Tears shall I be granted it.
I have Cried.
I have Sweat.
Now I must Bleed.

The Road I travel is a Forlorn one.
Forgiveness.
And only by the mercy of my opponent shall I be granted it.
I have Given to Others.
I have Payed for my Sins.
Now I must Give it to Myself.

The Path I walk is a Lost one.
Peace.
And only by the grace of death shall I, Perhaps, receive it.
I have Lived.
I have Lost.
Now I must Sleep.

I'm sorry for being sorry...
I wish there was another way,
to show you of my penance,
and that I've really changed my ways.
I'm sorry for the pain,
All the guilt and the sorrow,
It's not your fault but mine.
As is all the Hell that would follow.
I was to sick to see,
I was lost and adrift in this sea.
I am sorry for the very first breath I gave,
But here I shall lay despite all this,
Never next to anyone.
I am sorry.

You know how I know love is real?
I know love exists because, like love, you’re beautiful
You laugh, but it's true
Beauty is something both rare and astounding
Magnificent and special,
It is a moment in nature that is both rare and sudden,
Where you want to cry, not because you want to hold onto it forever, but because you know it is beautiful; and you feel peace and calm just from having enjoyed the few seconds of it.
I know love exists because, like love, you hurt.
Pain is the proof of life, but some tend bear more than others
Everyone has pain, but a feeling exists that allows others to have strength in taking on others' pain, So as to keep others safe and comfortable,
And nowhere is that more evident than in you.
I know love exists because, like love, your patient
Like a mother waiting for her child to stop crying, you wait, tenderly, supportively, yet passively, allowing space for healing and forgiveness that comes from this care
I know Love exist because, like love, your gone:
Love is internal in the moment,
But that moment will soon pass,
Only to be replaced by another and yet still another after that
So. I know love exists... Because you exist
And it would be a pity if you only existed for me in my mind
So you exist for the world, and that is why I know love exists
Because your touch is felt in the world
And your attention is given to the world
I would say I am jealous of the world…
Kind of a statement to my love life, and simultaneously the loves of my life.

Looking up into the black pool,
I am filled with wonder,
Where only a few have swam before.
Its a curious thing to expect to get wet,
From walking among the sun and the moon.
From swimming among the stars of the earth,
Ones that hold no ambition or desire,

I wonder if I swim alone, in a lonely black pool of thought,
or are there others up here with me.
Waiting to Splash me with their ideas,
Or bless me with their wisdom.

Or maybe there is a sea serpent,
waiting at the bottom of the black pool,
Would it lash out at me?
And constrict around me like the boundaries and limitations of the shore?
Or would it embrace me?
And free me from the limitations and boundaries of my mind.

— The End —
