Let go of the wheel,
Loosen your choke-hold on your life's great plans
Let the world do its own turning,
It's not up to you

You can steer, you can push, but you can't change the wind

You're not God,
Even God's not God

Two choices:

Stare, paralysed,
Frozen in the grip of impotence and insecurity
Deer in headlights,
Top of the world but scared of heights,

Or

Go along with the ride,
Let go of the wheel,
Loosen your choke-hold on your life's great plans
And see where the great world takes you,
Dive deep.

A
You created a religion
that first time I heard you laugh.
You built a temple in me and
wrote your holy book, paragraphs
with every glance you threw in my direction.

I do not believe in a God,
I mean I did,
no
I didn't.
It doesn't matter.
For we were both lost bastardssinnersrefugee's looking for a place we could call home, I found one in you, you in me.
We prayed in a silence that only a
mute would dare hear,
we had that silence that monks meditated, for.
Your eyes, I could not stand to be the object of;
for they were so deep and I,
too short to stand in them.

Our churchbodymind has fallen now,
for you are too far to travel
and
for you believe in the sun, moon and the tree's.

And I, imperfections and insanity
(I wonder where you are now)

I actually like
Black and White
Tangerine dreams
are so Yesterday

White pages, Black dreams
silent words scream

Describe the word Blue
without it coming to play...

It's something born,
denied its first breath
It's skin from cold water
It's the first blush of Death.
It's the cloudless sky
that mocks the tears
in my heart.
It's the only colour
in my Rainbow
when the tears depart.
It's the colour of ice
that floats in my drink
which resides at my elbow
drowning my ability to think.
It's the colour of flame
that blazed beyond heat.
It's the reason I'm blind.
It's the colour of my feet
that walked through the snow
following your glow
to lose the path
with no retreat.
It's the colour of my mind


I repeat

I like Black and White
the colours of Nothing
Ink blots on paper,
a pinch of Blue,
and the murky Grey
becomes something
I once knew.

I sit here and read
The poems to lovers
All the letters and greed.
But these poems aren't nothing
They all have a meaning
It's just finding it.

They don't all rhyme
Or have correct spelling
But authors took the time
Cultivating, dwelling,
Making their words come alive,
And have meaning to others.

Just because they're not perfect
Or make everyone smile,
Doesn't mean we all cant have
The spotlight for a while.

Knowing you've succeeded
In touching a heart
Is just like knowing
You'll never be apart.

I bid thee adieu
Since its early as sh*t
Have a gay day
And go accomplish it.

maybella snow
I lay in bed


back turned to the world
curled up
hiding from everything
huddled and confused
waiting
sadly enough
for someone
to come and lay
with me
and hold me
just to hold me
love me
just because
you love me
because I'm lost
confused
and lonely
and hell
it's cold
turning your back
to  stop the pain
when it's internal
please hold me
just because
Some say 'shyness is pride'
Some say 'shyness is cowardness'
Well what do the shy say?
They are well guarded,
With a wall so high and thick,
With traps and the unknown,
A fortress concealing what?
If shyness were pride,
Could it conceal great weapons?
If that were so,
Will those weapons bring benefits of utter destruction?
Should it be regarded as selfish or humble?
If shyness is cowardness,
could it conceal weakness?
If that were so,
Shouldn't the shy be regarded as being strong in a way?
The shy are mysterious and often misunderstood,
But really, what do the shy say?
We might never know,
Considering the fact they never reveal anything,
Be it great or not.
