I will paint a sky
of stars in our room
away

from burdening lights,
fill the road
with laughter
even as
the sun sets behind
a shadowy treeline

The city across the lake
will stay quiet
as ripples
make their way to shore

lather the sand beneath our feet
wiggle our toes
close our eyes
look up

and taste
the scent of manna
everyday for the first time.

When glass shatters,
all you can do is
pick up the pieces.

When we shatter,
all we can do is
pick up the pieces.

Things remain broken
only if we choose not to
fix them.

I declared today..that... I will stop...
I will put things on the shelf...
I will dance my Last Dance with my words to you on those papers...
With all my happiness and sadness, I'll stay behind the scene of Love writing its plot without being on the stage....
Without asking fate or destiny to give me the role of lover..the role of Hero!
I give it a try and couldn't tolerate the distance...!
I give it a chance and I felt the time is not with me...is not my alliance..!
I felt I'm the silent and mysterious composer!
I'm sorry...
I loved my moments with you...
I hate my time without you...
But...
It is the time to...
Calm down
&
Carry on...Alone!
or
Deeply alone!
When leaving things behind became the only gift left for me!

We live In a balance we cannot maintain
A cycle of despair and pain
In a world where a moment of peace can't exist without war
And Love without hate
Overwhelm by the struggle in our life's and the loneliness in our minds
Some are content and some are satisfied
Still we carry on
The bravest thing I've ever done
Was continuing my life
When I wanted
To *die
Quote - "Juliette Lewis"

Is it possible to run out of words to speak?
How far into our minds can we see
How many times do we have to tell ourselves we don't believe
Kevin Seiler Sep 2014
Walking amongst the fog
I see nothing but my fears
Lungs choking on the smog
I have been lost in here for years

Seeing only shimmers of light
I'm struggling to find the way
I become colder and darker every night
Searching for the words to say

Unsure if I can make it all alone
Harvester of my own life and the seeds of death I have sown

My thoughts in this fierce world are to brutal in truth for the Lions den to handle.
Your facade gives you weakened followers who know no better.
When the thinker speaks and followers listen, then this is when the truth becomes feared.
The truth begs and makes you not only see, but face the reality, the reality which you fear so deeply, the reality that you can not see by your own.
This is a brain washed society,  with few hopes nowadays.
Don't be a follower,  don't feed this negative energy being used to shut out hope for a better you.
We need encouragements for our selves, our lives, our strengths.
To believe in our soul and speak only with our heart shows the greatest of all beings, a true being.
We need not the "fear to think" we need to display our thoughts and need to fear the resentment towards a free thinking society before it is too late.  Please help show others there is hope and it is never too late.
