So simple it seems to be swept with the tide
Shore in the morning but deep sea by night
To follow life’s journey wherever it leads
To let the breeze sweep you through thousands of trees

But tell me, how often do you stop and think?
Stop for the roses so brilliantly pink
Put a halt to the day and stop the whole earth
Ponder the countless ideas at birth

Stop for a moment, think for me now
How much time for yourself you allow
It’s your only life and it’s all that you have
You can be different, amend your own path

Sleep in the day and awake in the night
Stay tranquil in chaos but in calm, you fight
When life is depressing you push on until
The light comes to take you away from your will

You have a purpose and you are much loved
The one who will guide you’s the father above.

If I was a mountain

That soared towards the sky,

With craggy snow caps

And stormy grey eyes-



Then you'd be the clouds

That swaddled my peak,

That silenced my thunder

When I tried to speak.



If I was the earth

The desert, in fact:

With arid dry soil

And mud, baked and cracked-



You'd be the rain

The downpour that soothed;

The balm to my bruises,

Relief to my wounds.



If I was the Moon

In the indigo night,

With stars as my blanket

And silver; my light-



Well you'd be the Sun

Just always behind

That lent me your glow

And caused me to shine.

I slide into my car
But I’d much rather be
In my car with you
Unaware of the time or place
Lost in your eyes
Lost in a car

I collapse onto the couch
But I’d much rather be
Tangled up there with you
No need for anything else
Fingers in mine
Heartbeat in sync

I roll out of bed
Another day lacking you
Me without you
Is like an earth without the sun
You are my sun, dear
And my world is dark

could it be?
he is here for me
choices past
chances cast
it is not true, I’d deny
the time sure did fly by
gone with the wind
never to be back again

could it be?
the perfect thing for me
dreams lost
risks cost
lonely nights
losing fights
another day thrown away
nothing left to pay

could it be?
the setting sun I can see
a seeming perfect resting place
trimming and embroidered lace
money runs out
no one devout
no longer safe
in this threadbare place

is it true?
eternal life with You
no need for riches
mended with stitches
happier than ever
alone, never.

I am simply a pawn of my environment
I wish to roam free in the plains of my lover’s heart
To soar carelessly through life without emotion or feeling
If only I could escape the clutches of the menacing soul
To strengthen my vulnerable nature
But instead
I wait in a delicate crystal globe
With flakes of greed, jealousy, pain, and heartbreak floating about
I wait uneasily for the courageous one to break me out
Because you can not escape from your own emotions
Maddie Borisov Jan 2015
I gave you my reliance
I supplied you with my sword
You showed me your trustworthiness
You sewed my soiled heart
I turn away; you turn around and stab me in the back
So many loyal qualities I never saw, you lack
I, though, was hurt by my assumption
For the sword in which you put your trust
Will be the sword of your destruction
