Softly the rain falls today. It's telling a story of glorious days to come or maybe saying "I'm washing away grays for days or feeding the needy and yes the greedy, I'm saving lives and giving back life to those most in need". As drops of water touches the earth replenishing thirsty hearts, Life returns to thankful souls, not wet with tears of sadness, but yet rather of gladness.

Tomorrow a new day dawns. A new path i must walk. Away from familiarity and similarity, away from what i know to what i don't. I ask myself the question, "why so scared of a path that's been chosen for a reason"? "I don't know" i should say. Maybe cause getting away from today seems more intimidating than keeping it together with yesterday. Strength of heart will prevail all darts of fear. It will be okay not to stay. It will be okay to walk away into a new day.

Beauty is
In the eyes
Of each drop
Of dew

A painting of men,
tangled in a web of flesh.
Drifting into hell.

Drifting into sleep,
I put on your mix CD
to rinse my eyes clean.

I would pray for you.
Writing it gives me chills and
I might wash my hands.

I yearn for your arms,
and exhale daydreams of love.
Pretending to breathe.

I want you to breathe.
I choke you as we **** and
say something nasty.

You know, John Cage said,
"In the dark, all cats are black."
Maybe that's why we

close our eyes to kiss,
or sleep in each others arms;
We don't fear our night.

Thanks to you I can hear what I think,
And thanks to that my sanity bleeds.
So because of my thoughts I'll have to drink
To wash away all of my bad deeds.
I can't take my depressing thoughts,
The darkness takes me in and tells me what I'm not;
It's the light that screams forget me not,
I guess I'm not who I thought.
The lack of sight is from the lack of light,
The voices in my head thrive at that time.
I’ve never been a fan of the night,
Or a fan of this stupid, every other line rhyme.
The cause of my mind’s insanity,
Is the darkness in which I live and breathe
It’s slowly killing me,
And causing me to lose my sleep
With no hope to carry on;
But along with my sleep, in the endless night I weep;
There's no where I can find to belong.
I find peace within my misery;
The darkness will always take over,
It will take all of my sanity, every part of me,
But it's the light that keeps me mentally sober;
There is hope, because the darkness always comes to an end,
And the black of the night will give me up.
The light I will depend,
The darkness it will disrupt .
The light reminds me of who I am.
It's the dark that I will always fight,
Until the night swallows me whole again,
I’ll have to depend on the light.
