We sing and we whistle;
my best friend and me,
together we live;
through our thoughtless singing.

We cry as time passes.
Inevitably,
As caged as we are;
We wish to be freed.

In songs we are flying,
unbinded, and
breathing,
in joy.

Then we come to;
the cage reappears,
I sigh in the moment,
falling? the tears.

Colorful blurs,
remarkable shapes,
I live in the moment,
completely unfazed.

Still we are burdened,
bruised in defeat.
we're giving up fighting,
we'll never be free.

Then I look over,
my friend is singing,
I feel so defeated.
Alone I will be.

I open her cage,
my small canary,
her little voice swoons,
as she happily, is free.

My friend is long gone,
my years have passed by,
sung I have not,
and alone, I will die.

Memories;
Unfocused and runny.
Your smile returns,
And so do my tears,
you laugh as it burns.

Always;
A lovely word,
on the hand written pages,
as all of your faces destroy who you were.

I turn away;
Holding your hand,
I explore on my own,
All the faces hold yours,
and I am okay.

A new page is written;
Cuts deep in my skin,
My mind looses its viberance,
the pendulum gives.

Rip out the pages;
Thats what you do.
I search in the many.
no traces of you.

Screaming;
Theres nothing.
No love in me to hold.
I'm hurt by the others.
How DARE you be so cold.

Gone;
A word,
which describes you;
and me.

Dried up pages;
Thats all there'll be.

I see you!
Do you see me?
Hidden behind the shrubbery.
I laugh, and I am found.

Look Up!
The plane zooms by.
We giggle and groan,
as we say our goodbyes.

WHOOSH!
The flames sizzle.
Consuming and tall.
Heads down, we pray for us all.

Licking our skin;
You've left your wound.
I ask you to heal mine?
Laughter resumes.

I am no more.
Hatred washed over me.
Can you not see me?
Flames block our broken paths.

As I walk down my road, I fall,
Hole after hole.
I trip.
Then, I see you there.

In a hole of my reflection,
I see you in my stream.
I give you food and water,
So you may soon be freed.

But up, i cannot get.
I struggle at the seams.
You pay no mind nor question.
Ghost-like I will be.

Pinch me if I'm joking,
Hold me til i sleep.
Cry if you must do so.
But let me die in peace.

I am red;
Screaming since Broken;
Pain obscured,
Your laughing, i'm dead.

I am orange,
Calming and clear,
You'll come when you need me,
You know I'll be here.

I am Yellow;
The sunshine that arose your day,
The Smile you wear,
and the price that you pay.

I am Green;
The grass that you sow,
Natures own way,
Of saying "Hello."

I am Blue;
Ice colored, speckled with fear,
If only you'd come back,
If only you'd been here.

I am violet;
The Turbulent reminder,
The shimmering gaze,
The Quiet reminder that was taken in haste.

I am the spectrum of colors;
I am stronger than you.
Brighter, and vibrent.
I'll outlive the truth.

The sunshines through the clouds;
I am born.

The warmth tingles on my skin,
the wind sweeps past,
the leaves sing their song,
and I lay back with a smile.

Content, I whisper:
"Inevitably I am,
and will be. You have no power,
Yet all the power in the world."

As I open my eyes
to the blinding sun,
The wind dusts a hair
from my cheek.

I dance in my love.
I am alone.

Lines cut clean.
the silence overwhelms me.
my pain develops;
raw and torn.

I wander up our shore,
Now, one set of footsteps,
I walk alone,
Against your echo in our waves.

The water burns,
salt rushes to the wounds,
Sand gets in,
the irritation sickens.

Hear me?
I'm screaming from your pain.
See me?
Curled up on the shore?

The silence overwhelms me,
Lines cut clean,
I cry for help.
I am alone.

Another me walks on your shore.
My heavy beat slows,
I succumb,
Vision blurs.

I am alone.
As the waves take me,
my footsteps fade.
I pray for you to not look away.

Eventually,
the sand moistens;
the waves crash;
I was never there.
