Gracefully dancing standing still
no destination nor force of will
no catacombs can claim or tame the thought
one not to be abused nor left to rot.
as i stare in awe it amuses me
a weightless cloud is what I dream to be

Fresh out of the Cocoon.
                   Waking up in the Eastern Sun.

                    Truth is depressing,
              it only digs up deeper questions
                                    and empty answers.

The Secret is
          Embracing the Emptiness,
                         filling it with Breath and                                          
                                                      Compassion.
          
          The Wild Spirit
                  Seeks
             Adventure

                                          Yet the Open
                                              Hungry
                                                 Mind
stays quiet
     behind a composed exterior
              unafraid to have fun and be crazy.

that piece of personality is as real and
           humble as the quiet

                                                          ­  There is A Proud and
                                                              Un­spoken Spirituality
                                                               that Guides how you
                                                                ­    *walk this Earth.

Him:
     "The moon as you are, so soft in lazy motions.
  The ease of your comforting words.
     As a patron of this Earth I gaze for more than one night.
  I know there are all your Phases like frames in each Creation.
     Where I am is in the Water, and in the Waves you make me Move.
  I will continue on these tides for you are my Moon.

     'Fly me to the Moon,'
   a great man once said,
     'To your surface, surrounded with me in a crater.
   Like a Child with a telescope I gawk, amazed, lit up, and naked.
     See your skin, dark to begin
   still waiting as the Tides in the ocean Sin.
     To the Moon and more,
   If only I could tie a String.'"

Me:
     "Gravity pulls, her winds blow.
   Balance of the two create the Waves.
     When she feels Threatened, her senses are Heightened,
   and her Emotions cause Commotions in the Water.
     The Waves then shut down, not making a Sound,
   which angers the Moon.
     She is there to shed Light in the Darkness.
   When the Waves won't give in,
     she casts Dim."
*I take no credit for the poetry of 'Him',
he was another lost and confused soul,
but whom did not want to be found*

Him:
"Yes, I agree, just keep your head up.
And yes, you can unleash
on me whenever you want.
Just understand I may do the same.
But I do listen to you,
and I do know how sensitive you are
that's why I don't..

I'm sensitive,
but I can look past
I'm not made of glass
and people need to vent,
or just tear someone down
and to pieces cause it makes them feel control
of something
and keeps them sane,
which is normal.."

Me:
     *is it?
     no but
    for real,
      is it?
*no credit for the writing, I just put it in poetic form*

Him:
"I love you,
the Sun will drop, the Stars move aside,
waves subside,
to the calming of a head on a pillow.

Here it is the case of blood and gold
that's backpacked a thousand miles
and the square footage,
of a Human Soul Infinite."

Me:
"Traveler's Dilemma:
                  never Satisfied.
  an Adventurer of the classified,
     to what might make the Questions
                                                              Real,
so the pupil will not live Insanity.

At least to know what she does not is Truth
so the Journey is not a wasted youth."
I am 'me'
He is 'he'

Nothing is Real.
none of this matters to me.
               I am going somewhere I feel I am making
         a Difference
              to a world
                  of Truth.

Goodnight,
       to the distant man
               who's always there,
                             but never here..

                                                         ­     forgetting
                                                 ­                 or letting,
                                    controlling,        ­                                open,
                           ­                      phrase,                                       cage,
                                                                ­                                         escape,
                                                                ­                   wage,
                                             tell me secrets,
                                                      li­es,                                  hide,
                                                                ­                                 lost,
     abyss,
                                                          ­                                           everyone wants,
                                                         needs,
                                                            desi­res,
                                                            ­                                               give,
                                                                ­                           take,
                                                                ­                                        waste,
                  ­                                                                 ­              why?
                                                            ­                   sigh
                                                          ­                    escape:
                                                                ­                high
                                            ­                                                 I don't know anything,
                                                       ­                                               too young to realize,

past tense too late,
                                       Help!
                                  I can't;
                                                          ­          sad song,
                                                           ­                tune of the world
                                                           ­                           slowly dying,
                                                          ­                                     crying
                                                          ­                                                  solves nothing,
                                                        ­                                 water the Earth?
                   Love?..
                   avoid,
                 = dismay
                                        confusion,
                                             never clear
go away,
   always there,
       but never here.
