We are spirits, simply floating through time
Searching for a purpose;
A beat and a rhyme
For these are our only sources of agony
Yet through destructive imagination, we have created more problems for us to endure
Why must we do this?
Minds so great, creating things so dark
Making life more difficult for all, not just us
Selfish intentions, greedy ambitions, and unfathomable destruction
This is the dream we have turned into reality
Paradise lost, for we are no longer looking
Perhaps one day we will gracefully pass through time once again
For now we must first find our footing
Never give up;
Never stop looking

The eagerness to write is slowly fading
Ideas dry up as the days pass
My hands,once tools for the manifestation of imagination, have began to forget their purpose.
As the title of creator slowly moves further from my reach;
A deep depression overcomes me
The realization that all that I stand for is becoming a myth
The will to live has eluded me
Unable to find a purpose in this world, nor can I see one being possible
As the grass grows and the sun shines, I begin to fade from memory
Sinking slowly into turmoil and despair, I envy all able to float
I hope one day soon I am able to rise above

Loud voices bleed through the walls;
And echo through the house
The sound of doors slamming rumble like thunder
Blankets pulled up to my chin as I cower in the dark
My brother does the same in his bed next to mine
The stairs creek as they're stomped upon
The front door slams;
And the house becomes silent
I can faintly hear the sound of my mother weeping
This has become a family tradition;
And hopefully will become a faint memory

When we have all gone, to the silence of eternity...
To first be forgotten, and lost in, the records of the earth
Could I still miss you, then, in the time and space after life
When no one is searching anymore, and where we are nowhere to be found

We didn't spend our life together
and I will miss you forever

The choice was mine, To long for a time, that will never come
Though we leave the world apart, I, still went peacefully, quietly,
with you, still, firmly... in my heart.

I will wait forever. I wait...

Moving slow through the corridor
Saw some guy with a random *****
Excuse me I mean human being
Unknown to my seeing
Continuing my way to an unknown location
Mind wide open, eyes forged in gold
I see the truth
It lies all around me
How did I end up in this party?
How did I arrive?
Did I fly in on a Pegasus?
Perhaps on a griffin, flying through the skies
These people, I do not know them
I sense their pain, being drowned in drugs and alcohol
But this technique shall not show results
A waste of time
They waste their lives
Once having dreams and goals
Now only caring about the next unholy event to show up too
Never amounting to anything, remaining stuck
In this purgatory we remain
I was once a person with aspirations
But now I lie in here with the other rejects
Suffering is my only destination

The smell of coffee breathes life into the new day;
The aroma is a constant reminder that today is the day to start;
Anew

You prefer tea over coffee and the scent of a warm cup does the same for you;
As coffee does to me

Our morning routines may differ, yet they make us closer;
And allow us to begin fresh from different perspectives

You are the cream to my coffee;
And I am the honey to your tea

Small embers burn ever so slightly on the edges of my heart
Hopefully someone will blow very gently upon them;
Possibly starting a never ending fire in my heart
This takes a special person;
Someone who does not give up easily
One who would want to do such a task;
And to maintain the growing fire;
Making sure it never goes out
I believe this person to be my soulmate;
The guardian of my flame
Never to leave my side;
And I will never leave theirs
I too will make sure their inner flame never goes out;
Becoming their guardian in the process
We will always be together;
Burning ever so bright;
For all of eternity

Mothers Day is in the past
Fathers Day in the near future
Although a future with my father;
Was never something I could celebrate
Left early so I couldn't relate;
To your ****** qualities
But little did you know;
It was you who I turned out to be...

Hello darling
Do you remember me?
The boy you left standing in the rain
While you went off and started your life
Remember me now?
The boy you left with his thoughts
While you spread your wings and soared into the light
Remember me yet?
The boy you left with feet swinging in the wind, heart filled with regret
Now you remember and it’s too late, for now you see that I have left
Farewell my darling, I hope your heart does not weep for me yet

Words fail to fall from my fingertips

As I sit here, feebly trying to write something

The idea is there, yet my imagination eludes me

Trying to press words onto digital paper

Seems like an impossible feat

But I try anyway

With hopes that something creative will come from it

But in the end, I feel all that I am doing is

Rambling

I am no one and will forever be no one
I am but a figment of your imagination
Traversing through life unscathed;
And unharmed
You see me and you hear me;
But you do not acknowledge my presence
Ideas worthy of admiration
Yet you do not care
I change for the better
Unrecognized talent best describes it
Forever I will be a nobody
This is my fate
Please will someone acknowledge me?
Before it is too late

Why do humans divide themselves? Why do we work so hard to come together, then within an instant divide ourselves into groups? Straight, gay, bi, republican, democrat, black, white, it doesn’t make sense to me. Why not accept each others differences? Why not learn to love the things that make us different? Why must you be put into a category? We’re living things, not inanimate objects who serve no purpose other than rotting away in a box that we ourselves created. We were meant to flourish, reach for the skies, not judge one another, and wither away and die. We’re all unique and bring different traits to the table, that’s what makes us special. The way we laugh, the way we smile, even the way show interest in one another, those are the things we should focus on, the ways we show emotion, the new ways we find to help one another, those are the things we must bring into the light, not cast them into darkness. We focus too much on ways to divide us, when we should focus on things that bring us together. We are humans and we can move towards a future of acceptance. We must be the change we wish to see.

I am not boring


          I promise there is more to me


                                                                       On the inside

Are you a portal?
I wonder what is inside
Dare I open thee?
And take a peek at what resides;
Inside of me
Or perhaps somewhere else
A glimpse of what I truly am
Push and poke;
To open up
My bellybutton holds secrets
Tales untold
But dare I touch thee
To open up
I think not
These secrets must remain;
Always locked up

Present yourself before me;
And I'll take your hand;
As we;
Traverse the back of our;
Minds
Lost within our thoughts;
And fears
We can overcome anything;
As long as we maintain;
Faith;
Within ourselves

As we ascend
Free from our mortal bounds
We rise into the grand open space above
We soar;
Floating away into our imagination
No longer our we forced to be where we do not belong
We are finally us
Now able to be ourselves;
Transformation can begin
Let us be better;
Let us be wild;
Let us ****** into the great blue above
Our minds transcend
Eyes now seeing those which used to be invisible
I was invisible;
And now I can see me
An open minded, open hearted being
My path is unclear;
That is ok
I am me;
This is who I am supposed to be

Let me dream
Let my mind be with the stars
Let me be the outlet for your pain
Let me be what keeps you sane
Let me lick the blood from your lips;
And the rythm in your hips
Let me be you;
Because I could never be me
Let me be your moon and your stars;
The thing that keeps you afar;
From the dark within
Let me be your sin
Let me be your saviour
Please, just let me be;
Everything I couldn't be

With warm hands and soft feet;
You approach with a gentle presence
I can feel the warmth of your heart,radiating from inside you
It is calm and inviting
You smell of wildflowers;
I am intrigued
Tips of your dress blow gently in the breeze;
Exposing soft and smooth flesh
You are of humble nature;
And I know you mean no harm
Free as the air around you
Who are you dear wild child?
For I do indeed wish to know you

Here I come
There I go
Traversing through the universe
As a solemn soul
Don’t know where I am going;
And I have no need for directions
I seek no destination
Among the stars is where I belong
Out in the blackness
It calms my being
No longer have eyes;
For I use my mind to guide the way
Here I am, traversing among the stars
For this is my purpose
This is where I belong

As I leave this world;
And enter another
I must first crossover the river of death
The River Styx they call it
A ferryman stands idly by;
Waiting for new souls, lost souls
To guide across
I approach this guide, with hopes that he will guide me across
Into new light
Or maybe he will guide me somewhere else
A place that’s only purpose is to provide fright
Onwards we go
And as I look down into the cold river
I see lost souls, their purpose only to find their way
But alas they are trapped
In a realm in between ours
Not quite at peace, but not in agony either
Maybe they will find what they seek one day
And as the ferryman helps me cross over these souls
I can only hope that I do not end up in their same predicament
As I grow closer to my destination
I can see the light
And soon we will cross over into the grand unknown
Maybe I will finally know peace
Maybe I will finally have a home
The Ferryman had other plans though
For he tipped over the boat, leaving me in the icy cold grip of the river
Now I am forever lost, among the other lost souls
My journey is now over
The river is now my home
I succumb to the darkness
My only purpose now is to forever roam
It’s funny how I once pitied the souls;
Lost to this river
Now I am one, gone without a sliver;
Of hope, my body, now cold and forgotten
I forever serve my punishment
Simply because my heart was rotten

As you can see
You took everything
That was;
Me
And Turned into something entirely;
Different
A creation of your own
Forged from the fires of your hate
I am now something;
In which everyone can no longer relate to;
Thank you

Flying up above
Looking down below
All I can see is a war torn world
A man made product
A group of beings who make up excuses for inhumane conduct
Lies conjured specifically to make others suffer
Those who differ from another
“Be the same or don’t be”
That’s the motto we live by
Or at least that’s how it seems
Hearts once pure now blackened with greed
Hearts belonging to those in charge
Oh how they spew lies
Democracy and freedom for all
Perhaps the biggest lie of all

Mister man behind the wall

Can you hear me call?

Can you hear me at all?

‘Cause I can hear you

Trying to scratch your way out

Why don’t you come out?

And be with me

On the other side

Why must I cry the same liquid that falls from the sky?
Perhaps it is because I am holier than thou who resides in the clouds
Maybe it's because were made from the same materials?
Maybe because we're the same individuals?
Am I God?
Or is God me?
I believe God is a man made creativity
Formed in our mind, to cope with the pain
Of life after death, a sky without rain
We are God and God is us
We must worship thyself
To worship anything else is insane

Life paints poetry upon our flesh through scars we earned;
From the battles we survived

Each one, significant

Each one a reminder of how we thought we were weak;
And useless

Now they serve as proof of our strength;

Wear them valiantly and with pride

Show them to the world

Let them see how you survived

If you don’t learn to love yourself, then who else is going to love you? No one will love you the way you deserve to be loved, no matter how much they claim too. You are truly alone in this world, no one to look out for you but yourself. No one will stand by your side until you both turn to ash. Learning to love yourself is the most important thing you can do, do not wait for someone else to love you, for in the end there is only you.

You sit there, staring;
Judging every ounce of my being

Chipping away at every flaw in my character;
And every mistake I have made

I see you whisper to yourself;
Under heavy silent breaths

Words of chaos and destruction

I am unbothered;
For I know you no longer know who I am

I'm not entirely sure I know who I am;
But I do know that the being sitting before me

Is no longer me
