Howling at the
Deteriorating
Pale moon

Straight jacket fashions

Perishable
Fault of thy own
Readily life stops flowing

An~ Empty cover

Speaks blank volumes
Pages full of pain
Screams back without permission

Coming up for air

Somatizing
Expressions have
Negative energy and feedback

My body fumbles forward

Blue blossom
Days fully encase
My mental state

Needing a botanical garden overhaul
Physical states flustered
I’ve had my limitations

Cleansing my palate

The ambience
Of stabilizing colors
Shows face value

My complexions become aware

Dry Ink can’t talk back
One day my veins
Will not flow

Just like that of the pen
Which may have at times
Been mightier then any sword

My existence could have flung
In my direction
Jay Jelly Aug 6
Swerving Bi-Polar
Future tripping
Hallucinations brought

Me back down to a harsh reality

A quick spit shine
Doesn’t always get
The dullness out

Barrel rolls

Not recoverable ~ mayday
A phoniness that’s spread
Like a hot knife

Through butter

Un ~ Clean
Gray and white Equals Black
The desires of my flesh

Aren’t mine of heart

I’d rather
Love myself unconditionally
Then pretend the masses

Ever cared about me

I’ve had a handful
Of true friends that
I can count on one hand

Five to be exact

Autonomous contours
Pleasantries are
Warming until

The Devil peaks his head in

I have to barricade myself
Up for safe keeping
I’m not sacrificing my

Sanity at the cost of another’s
False pretenses
Jay Jelly Aug 6
Obstacles inhabit
The weight of the
World’s on my shoulders

The closer I

Get too the light
Thee enemy will push
Back that much harder

The creator of the universe

Heaven and earth
Everything and more
All mighty one

My security blanket you are

So beautiful
You’d never forsake me
Leave my side

There’s an aching in my chest

A void that
Needs to be filled
Hurting so deeply inside

Yet I’m still standing somehow

You’ve always been
Thee one constant
When everyone else ran

You stood tall hands folded

Head looking up
Blue skies gleaming
Suns shining brightly

Eyes closed deep in thought

Calling out too you
Insecurities hamper my being
Faults splinter my path

My soul bleeds for comfort

Far from perfection
A work in progress
Slowly repairing the broken pieces

That are scattered

Make me whole again
Walk by faith
In that which is unseen ~ unexplained

But always the one constant in life

Felt in your heart
And your spirit
Not by misguided words

Lies that are spread

In thee darkness
There’s always a light
To find your way home

Wether you see it or not

It’s there guiding you
Protecting you from harm

Cover me heavenly father
Now and forever more
Jay Jelly Aug 6
Surrender the sun
In a world that’s
Gone cold As have I

Everlasting bliss
Allies unite
Becomes one whole

Clarity in sight A looking in view

A celebration of life
Angels fly closer
Breathe me in

Sleeping beauty comes too life

Patience no
Longer a virtue
Fresh ink ~ blank pages

Time for a change of scenery

Supernovas in my head
Open up the door  
To another universe

Where neon Lights shine brightly

Paint me a new picture
Worth looking at
Sing me a different tune worth hearing

Wishing wells run dry

Penny’s from heaven
Not sent
Between thee stars  

An array of colors sparkles

As there own
Free to roam as they see fit
Saving grace

Why have you forsaken me

A resurrections coming
Rainbows bright
Pots of gold at the end

Of thee tunnel

Grand central
Station boarding my train
All abroad one way

Ticket punched home paradise at last

No looking back in shame
Green pastures glisten
Golden valleys stretch for miles

Peace and quiet
Conquers all
An epic clam a stillness like no other
Jay Jelly Aug 5
Colorblind to feelings
Inhaling bliss
Exhaling a calming

Arithmetic you solidify

My highs and lows
Enticing to thee imagination
Some equations add up

Seducing beauty

Belle of the ball
May I have this dance
Sometimes you

Know even when you don’t

Your hunch was correct
Soft delicate touch
You could never hinder

My steps why would you

Your mysterious echoes
Vibrate and send chills
Down my spine

Endorphin rush magnified

By a million times ten
I wanna bottle
That up for safe keeping

Put a cork in it
And put it on a shelf and admire

It’s eternal eyeful glimmer
All for myself
Like taking a long walk with you

And getting lost in FOREVER
Jay Jelly Aug 5
Rolling hills
White water rapids
Night and day embrace

A 360 degree reversal

Of good fortune
Clearly rearranged
More assembled

Resembling more of a man  

That faint voice
In my ear brings tears
Shaking like a leave in the fall

Not as advertised

Let’s flip the script
The hollow steps
Beneath me

Driftwood on a sandy shore beached

Mediocre life amounted to what
Lost yet found some how
Sometimes you’ve gotta stop

And smell the roses

Acknowledge your growth
Many accomplishments don’t
Come with an award

But be proud anyway

Running without a care
In open fields of gold  
I’ve finally settled

Into accepting me

Tip of the cap
I salute Your brilliance
For mending my hurt

The best you could

A steadier hand
Guides my movements
Falling isn’t flying

In a stand still position

Floating isn’t infinite
Unless your soul is taking
Off for Heaven

Finally realizing that I made it
Jay Jelly Aug 4
Dream weaver
Riddle me this
Why did you suddenly

Appear out of thin air

You’ve knocked
My socks off
Such a sweet caress

With those Transcending eyes aloud

My yellow brick road
At the end of my rainbow
What an absolute joy

To know that we are

More alike then you can imagine

Less hectic
Speed bumps traveled
Would have been more easy

To manage the hardships
That almost
Broke us apart completely

Refreshing tones spreading

Like lavender my
First breath of fresh air
In a long while

Encapsulated by your warmth

Intertwined souls dancing
Is there really
That much difference

Between us

Dimming darkness prevails
Unexplainable light
Flourishes In both of us

Astonishing doesn’t even begin

To sum up how incredibly inviting

You truly ARE TO ME
EVERY NOW AND THEN… YOU CONNECT WITH THE RIGHT SOUL… AND EVERYTHING FEELS ALRIGHT… 🌞
