I can not say you're the woman of my dream
Because I have not dreamt of someone so
perfect
As I sit thinking of how whispers with the wind
And your eyes that hypnotize me with every
glance
And as I lie in bed thinking of you ( with eyes of
enchanting sky China blue) there you are
With a laugh of majestic tune
But as I wake from this splendid slumber
That's simply what it was a dream
For the women of my dreams does not sleep in
my bed
With a heavy heart I lit a smoke at the edge of
my bed
My love and hate will never die for it is written on Paper

I haven't written in so long I don't know what to write anymore
Me?
So broken
So lost

Do I write about you?
How you broke me
How I got so lost in you

I hope you remember who I was
I don't

Who would of thought
A thin piece of steel
Could make you feel
So much better
If you know I'm sorry

I heard  a song not long ago and it made me think of us.

The song ended and that to made me think about us.

Alone
Sometimes peaceful
Sometimes loud
Sometimes sad
Sometimes good
Lonely is different
Lonely is bad
And scary
Can’t see, can’t hear, can’t breathe,
Loneliness suffocates

He said he was drawn to the ocean attracted attached.
Standing in the water, the tide rolling out pulling at his ankles as the sand covered his feet.

Every time they would ask why. The simple answer was this scortched world put the  raging fire in his chest out.

One night as the sea tugged at his ankles he slipped away, like sand through your fingers.
The only thing left behind was his barren foot prints and a note .

Claiming he had found a new world, a space nestled at the bottom under the cold and stormy seas. A new world calm, mute and free.
He wrote goodbye, I love you. Wanting the water be his bed to rest.

You must have found this new world, having fun? Enjoying yourself? Because I haven’t seen you since.

I live in the wilderness
The Sun shines on the trees and through the leaves
Warmth envelopes my sanctuary
Until darkness approaches like a fog
The darkness is pregnant with sounds
I hear animals snarling while bones are breaking
Whimpers turn into blood curdling gargles
As the darkness renders invisibility among predators
And the darkness engenders vulnerability among prey
I desperately want to help but there is a darkness barricade
The darkness follows everything
The darkness swallows everything

I can hear planes crash
And the passengers scream
From within the darkness
I can only see muzzle flash
And the barrel's steam
Creating hardship
The darkness converts men to shouts of agony and rage
The darkness blinds us from the writing on the page
The darkness makes us believe
That it's our reprieve

Darkness has us in it's sight
When we choose to live in light
Even when we do what is right
Darkness takes flight
Becoming our plight
We try to fight back with futility
The darkness' bite has more utility
We are engulfed by negativity
As we lose all connectivity
And our mouths begin to foam
When the darkness is our home
