Sunny blue skies
Cloudless for now
Waiting for the hour
Of midnight hues

Winds whip up
Shaking trees
Clouds appear
And darken overhead

Creating quickly
An unnatural darkness
Unlike the calm
Of starry skies

Storms threaten
The peace of night
Chaos started
With just the force of

moments

It is moments
Flashes of time, and space

Breathe.

Serenity, comes from within

Our spirit .
Grounded.

An  inner harmony within our soul


Uncontrollable.
Yet within our reach.

Late night spontaneity
Underneath the stars
In the cool waters

Your warmth
Against mine

Pace every quickening
Trying to slow,
The moments you hope to never forget

Bittersweet. Life’s nectar

Nourishing our bodies

And then fading away

Seasons ever changing

Growth inevitable

Unstoppable.

Path’s coming and going
Crossing, and ceasing to remain

Sunshine waking me through my window

I arise to another chance,
Another gift, another day.

months have past
our bodies growing together
spirit, souls,
becoming tangled

But I leave you soon
and my heart is aching

and I am fighting the urge to push you
push you hard and urgently away


the plan for chaos was not a plan at all
merely an explosion of stuffed down emotions
that had been building ever so slowly

fear of losing you, fear of losing us

I rationalize,
this will make it easier
my head full of dark clouds
and now bittersweet memories
that once contained perfect nectar

a rare fruit we created together

and I fear so strongly the demise of us
I cannot tolerate to watch the leaves wither and fall

emptying our beautiful branches.

I 'd rather our tree burn
just as quickly as the fire that started between us

quick.
painless.


but to watch us fade
and watch our leaves fall
and watch our branches become empty

i must not
i could not

i cannot

blythe
When we feel sorrow,        
When we've gone through unbearable pains,
When we're already on the verge of giving up,
When our hope was lost,
Always try to remember
The very reason why we struggled;
Our purpose and our dreams;
That would give us the strength
We need to carry on and still pursue.
These challenges and hardships will soon pass;
We must not see them as hindrances  
But rather tools to make us stronger
And to bring the best out of us.
Always look at the positive side of things and always hope for the best :)
Challenges are set before us to make a better person out of us and not to break us. ^_^

Night grips at my soul

Ebony-clad hand at my throat

Vice in the heart gripping

Sanity in my mind slipping

Propane in my veins thumping

Blood dripping

Anger pumping.

Sadness making me a drunk thing,
Falling through mind's stink

Better think quick
Find a sober relief!

No pretty picture as I slip to the floor. . .

Mad disarray
Grip at the floor.
Mental decay
One hand shutting the door.

Night grips at my soul
Swallow me whole -
Down
Down
Down the rabbit hole.

An ebony-clad hand ripping up memories
Like an overturned desk,
Like an incurable disease.

Pray for release
From the maggots that feast;

Beasts on the mind clots of me.

Now give peace!

Night perpetuating my unease,
Sadness high

Eyes turned to the moon
Tears dry

Scenery dead with gloom
I can't cry

Scenery graveyard's black and white

I'll survive.

Though night grips my soul
While I slip
Into the rabbit hole.
