My mind haunt me again,
no reprieve that I
see in sight.
With heart
aching so badly,
in seeing shorter days.
Light of day end
so quickly,
and misery
pursue
for
weeks.
The silver rose has bloomed
and will not blossom 'til spring.
Withered petal long blown
in winds and decayed.
Ruined are my dreams
that lay scattered about me.
Just like withered petal,
I am softly in misery.

White are the barren trees
and covered are the boxwood
in ice and snow,
they sleep.

In the wake of giants we sing
We see no boundaries
We see no walls of abhorrence
Only prevalence
If we are not chasing a dream
We are helping someone else catch theirs
We think our dreams are too far fetched
We think because we are us we can't
What separates us from prosperity
Nothing but one fact
While we say "no I can't"
Those who prosper say "yes I can"
It's more simple than we imagine

From musicians to professional athletes nothing separates them from anyone else but heart.  The only person keeping anyone from their dreams is themself.  The person who says I can, and the person who says I can't are both right.
Ok
I am a strong girl
And independent individual
Who only need herself,
I can open my own sauce jars
And catch my own spiders
(Yes, catch, I never **** them,
They get rid of the more pesky bugs)
but in the end
Alone at night in my bed
I wrap myself up in layers of blankets
And pretend I'm in a mans arms

The same man that walked away
Just like that, the other day
There was nothing I could say
But it's all going to be okay
Because I am a strong girl
An independent individual
I know I'll get over him soon and it will be ok but for now it doesn't feel like it. I miss him. Not just as a lover but I miss our friendship.

Breathe.

Settle yourself.

Try to understand.

We were meant to love.

And if we can not love, then we were meant to try to love.

And failing that we were made to breathe.

And try again.

This is the product of an exercise. I was instructed to grab the 7th book on my shelf, turn to page 7, and use the 7th line as my first line. The poem was restricted to seven lines.
Any song can sound sweet,
if you tune your tone appropriately,
and add a lyric,
with a melody
and I have seen where there is a life,
there is a song
but some songs are not only a love song
that notion was a loop, intense, black and blue passionate song
was not romantic

She was a sad song
and I thought I would know how to make it better
like if I could be the only to love her again,
I believed that everything would fall into a melodious love song
but  I lost a few lines of lyrics
and there was bit melody missing that I couldn't find
and I saw too many scratches on the disc
I couldn't let myself be made no longer
trying to fix her entirety.

scratches on the disc
I want to be a bard in the consciousness of the confluence of your eyelids,
Where the sounds merge into silence.
And nurture me from where your consciousness sprouts,
I would thrum like the waves of the ocean to the emanations of your reverberations....
