You are neither the stars
Nor the sun
Or even the moon

To me, you are everything.
The distance between it all.
Roman Pavel Feb 17
Guided by the starlit night
A new moons waning light
Painted colors of green and gray
Patiently wait till the break of day

And in the twilight, darkness breaks
Comprised of combative colored flakes
Golden sands mixed with amber gems
Light blue sky, and earthly stems

Sitting perched on mountain tops
As the light creeps and crops
Calm winds gently nudge
As the chorused birds sing and judge

Pathways brighten to twisted trails
Gypsies jumping from misaligned rails
Subtle lovers come and go
Timely teachings of passions show

And now, to stand amongst the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore.
Brave, because fear is ever present
Bold, because boring is not pleasant

Burdened by bi-polar thought
That the horizon cannot be caught
As if to capture a moment of a flame
That even the gods could not tame

No place to call home
To be infrequently alone
To sing and dance, with strangers still
To give love a chance, with serendipitous skill

The last trap of a wondering soul
To try and consume the world whole
When they corrected all the wrongs
That’s, when traveler finds where she belongs

And yet, she travels still
Looking for life’s thrills
One day, she’ll know peace
Maybe after travels cease

Wether being conscious or not
One day the flesh will rot.
And turn into Stardust once more
So she may guide others as they explore

Challenge me intellectually
Inspire me spiritually
Support me emotionally
Excite me physically
Roman Pavel Feb 7
I was born, a blank canvas
Propped up, on an unstable easel
Outlined in black, by a myriad, of life’s choices

(BY YOU)

And then, you colored me in
With magnificent hues
In places I dare not know were empty

(BY ME)

And then, i found color within me
Made of magnificent hues
In places I previously feared were empty

(BY US)

And then, the world colored me in
With magnificent hues
In places I never imagined exploring before

(BY NO ONE)

Filled in with magnificent hues
And then, society stripped me clean
Bleached my colors, and left me empty
The first 3 lines stay consistent

And then “painted” in 4 ways
Roman Pavel Jan 25
She told me “nobody loves you “
(Well, she’s wrong)
She said “nobody needs you”
(To leave her alone)
She said “nobody wants you”
(Around… and to go back home)
Yeah….
But hey! that’s why I stay , I only hear what I play, live my life on display

Because out there “somebody loves me”
(More than you)
“Somebody needs me”
(To get them through)
“Somebody wants me”
Oh This I know, and. I’ll let them show. Just How far in life I can go

For someone “to love me”
(Everyday)
For someone “to need me”
(In every way)
For anyone “who wants me”
I promise I’ll stay! At least for Today
And Ill give my heart away

To someone who wants me.
Roman Pavel Nov 2023
How mundane the world must be, if everything was in perfect symmetry
How boring is life, if you never encounter a moment of strife
Please try to explain, how perfection is not mundane
I much prefer to see, only one floppy ear on a collie
As if they can hear, better from only one ear
And all the perfectly pretty people, well they look like sheeple
I like the way the branches grow on a tree, as if it was made for only me.
And only the tree knows, where it’s branches goes
I love how your socks never match, how onto my right arm you latch.
I like your left eye far more than your right. Because when we lay, that’s the one that looks at me at night
For all your imperfections, you may think I don’t love thee, but the truth is, you’re perfect for me
Roman Pavel Nov 2023
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

I think back to the time when my search first began
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there
I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere

When the summer sun is shining
Shaking the sails of my heart I know

When the world that had been hiding
Has opened up its doors for me to go

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Is what I aim for!

And though I traveled far from where my search began
Over seas of green and shores of sand
Through the endless everlasting world out there
I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere.

As the cold clouds are colliding
Starting the storm of my journey home
All these feelings that I’ve been finding
Now I have to let them show

Yeah yeah yea yeah
It’s the start of my WOAH!

I think back to the time when my search first began
I left behind those shores of sand
For the endless everlasting world out there
I know that with this burning passion driving me
Someday, somewhere I'll finally see
The light I have searched for everywhere
