I have tried to fly
but don't think it's for me
trying on wings
just so i could see

Most they were pretty
and some of them small
but this little bear
couldn't fly at all

Some were so grand
and some were just plain
i tried them all on
again and again

And each time i tried
to fly in mid air
it didn't feel right
being way up there

So i'll leave it to those
who have their own wings
and let them fly high
where their music sings

And most little bears
just want to be free
to wander the woods
so that's where i'll be

And I will stay here
i'll make my own sound
and sing my own song
where my feet touch the ground.

No my baby
your monsters aren't real
now go back to sleep
there's no big deal

Yes my love
have the sweetest of dreams
it's just shadows you see
and dancing moonbeams

No little one
it's not your monsters you see
no need to be frightened
they are here for me

Yes my child
mummy knows how to fight
i'll be right back
night night sleep tight

Somehow even in death my spirit lingers
My tremulous spirit as the tassles on a purple curtain
My dreams which consume me are airy thoughts of substance
Pulled in by hungry fingers and engraved upon the stone
Once I was water
But I died that past life as something to make you drown
Next I was evaporation
The wetness that I left exposed to brilliant suns
Then I became the clouds
Your eyes are skies and I pass them in different forms
Last I became the rain
And as I fall from uncertainty your skin feels all of me
I cover every inch of you
I am the red dress that you wear
Still, bones are bones
And bones are brittle
They live by magnificent half-lifes in our world
And then fall into the ever expanding ground
Its not a meaning
Its just the feeling going around
Round as the circle I try to draw
An inexplicable bridge to cross the ocean
An impossible feat of engineering and imagination
And always in all ways leading me
My feet
My staunch and heavy heart
My hair meant to be one of the first sights of your morning
My skin, and sin, and my repentance
My liberation, my salvation
The way no one else can touch me
No one else can save me
And no lover ever lived
Could wear the red dress the way you do
Get wet!!!!

Despite my trials
i will continue to be on trial
as there is no way to justice without
and despite my sufferings
i will continue to suffer
as in my pain
strength will be born
and despite my tribulations
i will remain on the path set before me
as the way forward must be travelled
and despite my fear
i will have courage
safe in the knowledge of a new day
and despite those who would cast stones
i will continue to gather them
building a shelter for those at the roadside

But i beg.. understand this
i do not always know the way
and doubt often clouds my mind
but i know deep inside
that wisdom comes from a humble heart
and therefore
love can only but follow.
A very personal write for me.
I guess it might not make much sense
but to me it makes perfect..

I refuse to be broken.

Writers are crazy
the most batshit eccentric weirdos I have ever met
they will insult you, your entire family
and your dog..
in such a way that you will be moved
your heart will take it's delight
you will be in awe of their delicious profanity.
it makes you want to be a mewling ****-fed flap dragon
how divine
how could you possibly refuse?

..
You inspire me to be me
You make me believe i am brave
You have shown me that courage
comes from within
You may not change the whole world
but You have blessed mine
i have never seen nor felt
such undeserved kindness
You are one of the few
i am indeed a simple soul
But i know what chosen looks like
i have met your kind before

Under a jesters hat in the court of kings
is a dancing peasant before the queen
such fine robes of purple silk do I wear
fancy that.. you pretty thing.
Such splendid tea parties with the finest of ladies
conversing gaily of the weather
and other such nonsense
things I know not
What utter tripe
guttersnipe
ne'er-do-well
pouring tea
Such dainty things the tailor brings
twirling in such finery
while the little piglet powders it's nose
and calls herself pretty
