Ghost
An old soldier alone. Just his haunting memories. Old scars and new. The old soldier only wants a rest but the fight goes on. The old soldier is ready for the end

THE ONE

Let me tell you something.
Its been a long ,
Iam having that dream.
Dream that I found the one.

Let me tell you how she looks.
The eyes, which completes the grace.
I wish I could succumb for her,
So I can see her all day.

Let me tell you how she sounds.
She talks, her words can heal.
I wish I could hurt myself,
So I can find peace in her words.

Let me tell you about her posture.
Kind she is , thus she spread love.
Empathetic She got, so she serve good.
Its the breif Iam telling you.

Dreams come true sometimes,
Even more beautiful it offers.
No one can give those feelings.
The moment you found the one.

camps
words on paper airplanes now stalled out
in an electric stasis
shocking like when your blue eyes peered out
and made me realize that

holding hands on twenty fifth felt warm
like morning coffees pouring blessings
the lotion dotting sleepy faces
hung pretty as art on empty walls
trails of roses shaping your lips red
marked the rooms so stuffed with memories
the spasms in your sleep would cry out like
crackles of fires burning bright for us
brushing your hair with lamplight so sweet
showed the comfort of nights staying in
for you these eastern trains voyage north
and surrender to the belonging

you didn't just feel cozy
you felt so much like home

Here, the frozen moment, a most precious frame of mind
That in the greatest beauty, and in the finest art
Lies the hidden truth of man, the hardest there's to find
Belonging begins in the bravery to restart

How we carry the load upon our backs of
memories we wish could once again be our
reality.

We keep time in different ways like music use
to make our hearts skip a beat to a happy
tune, now the music of the soul is gone replacing it
with unanswered questions, fear, and doubt
isolating man within a place of cold unawareness.

Confinement we seem to choose to live each
moment making no difference how fragile the
world of unconscious thoughts used to glow with
hope, faith, and love we shared among all the species
here on earth, appreciating the happiness that we were
free to make dreams come true without the darkness
and shades that surround us.

With unwillingness, we no longer believe or care
for ourselves, only drifting deeper into the void of
nothing matters just time that passes on the darkened
paths that go nowhere, minds empty, forgotten brightness
of light that once filled all hearts and souls.

Now! Look around and see the emptiness in the eyes
of people who threw away their faith for
something they thought was better.

The wind blows past empty hearts that use
to enjoy the simple life, now emptiness
darkens the light away.

Now, all has changed because we choose
to live differently forgetting the joys of
just living as Children of God.

Our Heavenly Father once said hanging on
the cross before he died! “Forgive them, Father, for
they do not know what they do!”.

Maybe in the new world that is upon us now, we'll
remember exactly why we even existed! Till then
we roam without a thought of what Love even
means.  We merely exist.

We are no good to ourselves when we have no
idea who we are!

Many answers may satisfy man's distorted
mind!  But in time we shall find the answers
true.

As she started to trace her steps...
She discovered that she was back on the same trail.
The one that led to her fall.
Well, now she's back where she started.
On the ground again.
And trying to fake a smile
Was like trying to heal a scar with a bandage.
She was a girl in passing...
She was a lady in limbo, and although other people see her.
She does not see them.
Even with her love for bright colors, she couldn't find the grey area in her pain.
Her love was lost!
Looks would normally take this title
However
I find it else where

When alone
Surrounded by nature
Flowers blooming
Trees standing tall
Leaves russelling against one another

The soft breeze on my face
The warm sun on my back
A reminder of the unspoken words
That if you listen close
You still hear the words in the wind

The voices of those we miss
Reminders they are still here
No mater how much time has passed

To me
To be at peace
And with family and friends new and old
This is beauty
The hidden beauty most forgot now
