Shadows of love
Ryan Apr 2018
Once more to far
over the seas
wreckage lays waste
from sunken ships ashore
my guarded heart
treads those waters lightly

Virtual love through screens
what could it be?
expectations left dry
jealously yet again
made broken bonds

Promises left dry
and you went
into another love
goodbye for now

Here I am once more
in a shadow of love

Only now
Ryan Sep 2016
Past and future just an illusion
Only now is forever
Vivid images in reconstruction
Memories fragmented
Our mind
The bank of riches
Growing in wealth
But robbed by despair

No sadness comes to mind
left with blank expressions

Candid confusion
rattling my cage
aided by momentary anger

I manage my insanity
adjusting the dials
to allow for my sanity

Our words become riddles
how can we hope to understand
did we ever try to?

Calm when I'm alone
but left with ruptures in my head
no light shines in loneliness
just left disguised instead

I still ache for a new beginning
some mutual ground to stand upon
yet I know not how to create it
or even if the chance still exists..

Blank dictionary
Ryan Feb 2016
A blank dictionary
I am exhausted of words.
Left with pages bare,
unable to articulate.
But to say it simply,
I miss you.

The Unknown flow
Ryan Jul 2017
one step foward,
one step back
the never ending cycle
of the unknowing
Like wind
drifting calmly
without direction
yet flowing
accepting the way
only what is,
will be

Night dimensions
Ryan Aug 2016
into the deep blackness,
we descend with closed eyes.
Yet we dance in delight
as vast worlds tease us in a haze..
snapshots roll through our eyes
as we blast through
deep caverns of the mind.
we watch on,
as our subconscious perform its play.

The world is black and white
Until you paint it with colour

real or not
Ryan Aug 2016
half the time reality feels like a dream
or maybe I just wish it was.

Reminded
Ryan Jun 2016
Wondering though the same place
I am reminded of you.
Here you energy lingers,
hand in hand where we locked our fingers.
The photos you took, frozen moments in time
when I was around you everything felt just fine.
The calmest feelings I can't explain,
I miss every moment with you, I just can't refrain.
Enduring torture as I patiently wait
we'll see what's round the corner, I know it'll be great.

let the pieces fall back together
I'll glue them in place
I'll brace any storm
to hear the calmness of the waves
to see the soft orange sunrise
shards from such terror left behind
can be washed away into the ocean

— The End —
