As I drift off unto the sky touched days,
the tranquil sways of the myriad waves,
underneath this wood build raft,
I crafted with my hands for this sea lain path.
The chilled touch of the scared hour,
continues to devour my will and power.
Sun set palace beacons down like untouched snow on the ice covered ground.
No fear, regret, worries or troubles
as I drift in closer to my dream islands double.
Earth has been a gift to us,
the ocean has received my trust,
what seemed like hours fluttered past
before my eyes coloured gold and brass.

As I reached to touch the grains of sand
that signified my arrival to land,
I felt my body concave in,
the beauty I held from deep within.
The pure surroundings I had befriended,
awarded me with belief that has never ended.
What lies beneath the grand horizon
was stunning,
of that I could not hide from.

The welcoming call of the overhead birds,
translated into human words,
as I became one with the flawless landscape,
my three wishes spent on that
to never escape.
I want to tell you
everything.

Everything there is
to know about me.

About how I ran from
the highest hill down
to feel the air push
me behind.

Once I bent down
before God
and asked Him to give me
death over happiness.

I used to believe that
dust was nothing but
dead memories
fallen away from us.

I will tell you everything.
If only you asked.

Because I want to.

I want to give you
a piece of my mind.
I want you to get
inside the mind that controls
this melancholy body.

I want you to get
inside the chambers of my heart
and wrest dark secrets
from its broken symphonies.

Fix it.

You?
I will tell you anything.

art is bisected into three categories
and other subcategories
painting & drawing
poetry & literature
music & dancing
i happened to become an
martyr to poetry, logolept
and framed masterpieces
not written down on paper
kept inside of wires attached
to my brain, smoldering my
grey matter and my feelings
melting like candles, slowly
but urgently sweating out
unspoken power and ungodly
overwhelming thoughts need
to be shared, but only show
your passion to someone
worth writing about who
is just as complex as you are

A microcosm of the world was what I would say
and the hurt kept coming in every way
Money religion and all that can divide
it was all used to hurt my pride
Friends, parents, and heritage were to blame
When love is not love  its all the same
Where is the "for better" where is there "for worse"
believing more of what's out there, that's the curse
Lied about, framed, and hurt deeply with neurological drugs
aligning herself with common thugs
Thousands of magical moments they really did bring joys
even though they are  now used for other people's toys
Deep in our hearts they'll never go away
How I love you in every way
I don't care what anybody will say
More Roses from me to you on more of your special days
your are of my greatest gift s in my life and our moments I will always cherish
there are no words, no actions, no charades that can blemish
our bread is buttered today that's what we say
some creativity will find another way
so many things remind me of you
not the worst human being alive deserves what happened in lieu
In my mind I gave more than I ever I could
The drugs made hardened feelings do what they would
stock market losses another reason to blame
moving and changing lost much more just the same
but all the justifiers come out to make sure she disapproved
when all our lives were changed with her horrible moves
when all chances taken were for love and generosity
and all she could see to make her right was animosity
No human being could ever bare to hear the pains I suffered
and to even reveal the truth takes all I have to muster
but the truth is that I would do it all again
if that was the price for you to see
the beauty beyond all attachments and the splendor in thee
Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Socrates, Galileo and more have been jailed
and what were the greatest truths ever and how they later sailed
Unconditionally loving you and that is what will always be in me
and for that I am the luckiest person I can be

I met you and I saw
brighter parts of the world
everything I looked at
was more vibrant
your eyes gave me a new sense of vision
and life was easy
the clouds always parted for me to see the Sun
the Moon always shone,
bright enough to encase me in her love
(as though I needed it anyway, with you there)
but when you left
so did my light
my saving grace
and all that was right
the water which used to be
the bluest of blues, infinite and beautiful
was nothing more than a place
to fill with tears, tainted by mascara
as grey as my life had surely become
and morning strolls
were torturous
the sharp fresh air was no longer refreshing
it felt like daggers
plunhing into my chest with every breath I took
reminding me that I am alive
and living a life without you

But the storms passed and the days grew brighter once more
and I am more than you and more than us
and I began to see the Sun and the Moon
shining for me once again
and I took in their love and life
I breathed in the morning air that made me feel alive
and it made me realise what I am

I am stardust and moonlight
I am the sun shining through the dull sky
I can grow flowers from my skin
I can fix the world for myself
and heal my own soul
and I am what I need to carry on in this life

Alone or together
I am all that I need

When I saw the rush of red
I panicked
sobered up
Ambien no longer had its sleepy hands around my throat
I threw my silver knight against the shower wall
Ran out shivering and naked into the hallway
Dripping life force
I made the mistake of telling someone
Because only the next day in the white four walled cell containing me
Did I realize how much I wanted to no longer exist
I laid in bed for three days on and off crying and shaking
Finally got released
To an even more cold family
Even more estranged from everyone I know
And everyone that thought they knew me
I act happy jump threw your hoops
Make sure I seem back to normal
And every night go to bed
praying to not wake up in this life

There's a tree I see
through my bedroom opening,
a sacred tree only I see.

I climb up high
feeling life's weight crease.

I see birds dancing on winds.

Why wasn't I born with wings,
free to take flight,
would I return
or become absorbed
in awe of views.

I do my thinking here,
one with nature,
bark my solace,
branches my balance,
leafs my cover
sparkling in bright light.

I see  beauty as far as my eyes can see,
new life unfolding
surrounding me.

My sacred place
where I can be me,
dreams,
Reality,
words pour from me.

the emptiness and the quietness are the things that woke her up
she couldn't move, she was in a white oblivion that she put herself into
she tried to feel, or move, anything
but nothing worked, she was frozen in time
slowly, reality crept in, snapping her back in short white flashes
sharp pain pierced through her skin, as a ruby red river flowed from her wrist
she was freed from time and fell to her knees
as her labyrinth came to a halt, she was left to think,
"what if i took another turn?"
but it was far too late for her
the river overflowed
and she feel to the floor
the white oblivion was her new home
i thought of this in the shower last year as i rinsed soap off myself, idk

Sunrises over the sleepy ocean
The light reflecting off the shimmering water
And the clouds scattered across the sky,
Contrasting with the morning color
That kisses the beach once again

Late night’s that lead to early mornings
Watching the sky turn a lighter shade of dark
Until you can see the light beginning to kiss the horizon
And the mist settles in the valley hovering where it’s safe
The world is quiet and peaceful
The day is so innocent and young
You watch the stars and the moon fade out of the sky,
But you know they are always there
Watching over you as you continue through the day

Raindrops outside your window
Burrowing yourself deeper in the covers
And relaxing to the rhythm of Mother Nature’s song
Simple joys
