If you stay still, silent and out of the way,
People will walk by without even knowing you're there.

How many things do you miss as you live your life?

Out of corners that look empty and corridors that blend together
The truth will appear

Blink your eyes open

I'm waiting there.
Have you stared into the flame
Knowing you're it's master
All the while catching fire

Believing the illusion
That nothing really matters

We're slowly being murdered
Consumed while we wait
Not realizing we've lost control
We've sealed our fate

Your eyes are as blue as the sea
Matching the raging ocean inside of me
My crashing waves calm in your presence
I wish to drown in your essence

i was told that she moved like the wind,
and her eyes carried whispers from the ocean that
her hands breathed like the leaves but

it wasn't till i saw her in the lights,
dancing as the music swirled around
speaking like she could chase away sorrows and
singing because the world depended on her words, that

her voice reminded me of the home where i belong.

i'm tripping over shoelaces
and falling over beating hearts
while you are watching
with amused, worried eyes.
my fingers turn to ice
and i manage to mumble
"i like your hair" before
the world ends and
my shoelaces are strangling me.

Haunted by love, amused by pain
Finding solace, only in disdain

Heart continues burning, while the mind suffers
No more scar now, left to discover

The lonely night howls and crumble
What road is this, oh why do I stumble?

I am craving you bravely with this pain in my heart
I am craving you bravely, with all this love I am feeling, these feelings I keep ignoring
I am craving you bravely, I'd like to embrace you, taste you..
I am craving you bravely, I love you, come back to me..
I am craving you bravely, mami, princess, come back to me
This took a turn

Constant chaos in a single mind
Massive noises and disordered voices
Cloudy, dark, misty thoughts
Filled into a weakened being

Screams of tension
Shouts for help
Listen to their breaths
Feed them profusely with negativity
Hear their every...
SCREAM
SHOUT
ESCALATION
AMPLIFICATION
AMPLIFY..
US!

Just then
He held her close
Whispered softly
Gently...
Carefully...
And she breathed with ease..

*For his love roared louder than her demons

Love slithered up my sleeve
like a sun parched python
coiling around my soul
making its home in the sanctuary found within
venemous words spit forth their guile
antitdote saught in nights comforting arms
the moons radiant smile comes forth from a bottle,
stars decadent radiance cascades from a tear,
I'll hide in a sucumbant dream,
on yesterdays and alibis I shall rest this weary head.
°°•¤☆¤•°°

the night's as a dark cave
when you're in a test
you can look unto the east
look unto the west
no light to follow clearly
like a banjo out of tune
you chant a mass of chaos
to an uncaring
moon

BUT

there are
stars around the corner
there are
stars behind the door
stars outside your window
when you can't take anymore
stars, they have a sparkle
all their very own
they can warm you
like a hearth
or chill you to the
bone

look up!
dark nights don't last
and though there may be rain
the thunderstorms are passing
you will see the SUN again!
this ol' earth, it keeps on turning
and though the stars are gone
you know it's always
darkest
just
before
the

dawn

so just keep looking up
for Jupiter and Mars
but be sure
to make your wishes

to the

MAKER OF THE STARS

Its almost 3 o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep. My father went into the hospital last night. I am cheering myself up with this poem. I don't know what's going to happen in the future. If my father goes into a care home I will be moving. But whatever happens I know that God will help me through it. I am relying on him more than ever these days. I am praying more than ever. If it seems like I'm not on site very much, it's because I need to be communing with the Maker of the stars.

Thanks for understanding.

☆ LOVE YOU ALL! ☆
