Beckett May 13
I remember when I was happy
I remember when you were mine
I remember the day I fell for you
I wish i could turn back time
maybe my heart will heal someday
till than I just want to forget
I cant risk my heart breaking again
if it does than that might be the end
THE LONER May 12
Who knows what I am seeing while I sleep and why my mind never allows me to remember but the fall
maybe its for my protecrion
the mind and the heart wants me here,
the soul wants to drift
to find other souls
people I ve never forgot
or lost
but laws of reality must be obeyed
and I must remain
here
maybe thats why travels never exited me this much
maybe I travel by moonlight too much
an old soul
I ve been around
A breath away
In greek mythology Dream and Death were brothers
A breath away

Surrounded by ideas and plans,
you were paving your own way—
an American, Chinese, or European dream,
it all looked like the perfect world.

In chasing that vision,
you lost sight of yourself.
Stirred by the illusion’s chaos,
you chose to listen to a fairy.

That grand design in your mind,
planned out over a lifetime—
how much it shapes
what you allow yourself to feel.

One life, one chance:
follow who you want to be.
Stop forcing, stop pretending—
don’t chase who you “should” be.

Your great magic puzzle—
you can shift it however you wish.
Step outside your own design,
and let yourself feel again.

Rodeado de ideas y de planes
estabas preparando tu camino
sueño americano, chino o europeo
todo parecía un mundo perfecto

En la búsqueda de ese mundo
te olvidaste de ti mismo
la consciencia de una ilusión agitada
a un hada decidiste escuchar

Tu gran proyecto mental
que planificaste toda tu vida
cuanto influye, en lo que
te permites sentir

Una vida una vez
sigue lo que quieres ser
de forzarte y obligarte
no sigas lo que debes ser

Tu gran rompecabezas mágico
como tú quieras lo puedes mover
sal del esquema de tu vida
y permítete volver a sentir
Thanks little fairy.

ITS A TRAP

Adulthood promises freedom, but often steals wonder.

years have come and past but I am not
going to let anyone stop me
my life is for my own and keeping myself safe
bringing my husband on the ride with me
this economy ***** but love is all that matters
I don't like the shiny things if I can't spend time with the
man of my dreams, protective and kind, and an ******* some of the time but who isn't we live for ourselves and for each other
Sam Grotke May 10
Comes the sun with my waking eyes
and it's almost worse than last night
I'm feeling wounded from my dreams
so far away she is from me,
When I wake they fade away
places so familiar in sleep
treat me as a stranger in their own
and I feel wounded from my dreams
Until I wake to find her here with me.
Ellie Hoovs May 10
They laid me to sleep
in a coffin made of glass
lined with velvet apologies
thinking I'd dream of oceans
or forgiveness
or that one perfect nectarine
I'd dropped in 2003.
The ceiling shattered
while a symphony played
... wolves chasing Peter,
and me.
They chewed on my ankle -
wearing a voice that once prayed for me.
My nerves bloomed bruises.
My hands turned to questions,
tossing runes to the laughing sky
that held no answers.
My skin peeled,
old wall paper from worn bones,
regret curling
smoke above untended altars.
This is what it must mean
to be haunted by your own heartbeat,
to taste rust on your tongue,
with feet that remember
what a mind will not admit.
Love letters delivered in salt,
signed in static,
that simply read
"Persephone,
come home."
Sharp pain is my life
It spirals and turns
Twisting into knots so complex that only the darkness can be held.
We learn and we love and we live
In a broken world where sorry doesn’t mean I care, and I love you doesn’t mean I’ll stay.
We’re sitting ducks,
Bound to fall from the sky in a shower of faith
And drop faster than air
And smaller than life.
The pain is a full throb,
An ache from a far away life
Past the barriers I’ve built around my stone raging heart.
These walls seem to live and to flow and to breathe.
In.
Out.
In.
Out.

Let your mind and soul collide in a moment of silence where only the crickets will chirp.

For why would you sing in a long broken world.
Why would you swim in a soft little desert?
Why would you fly in a cage made of concrete.

How can we soar without any wings
How can we dream without any snores

What has this world come to, to feel so alone, in a world overpacked, with rooms overfilling.
Yet each one has a heart with a cage made from steel, and the barriers too high to ever break free from.

Farewell me to a place where dreams die, and lay me down, and forever I’ll cry.

But why would you cry in a heaven made perfect?
Are you ATTUNED
with your LIFE???, or
are you ALIGNED
with the STARS???
Do you TRAVEL the HIGH
GALAXIES, from SATURN to MARS???
ARE YOU ATTUNED???,
are you ALIGNED with your DESTINY,
ARE YOU READY TO EXPLORE,
YOUR BIGGEST, GREATEST FANTASY,
OKAY, LET'S SEE!!!
DO YOU SIT AND PONDER,
about your WILDEST DREAMS???,
HOPING that ONE DAY,
they become......
TRUE REALITY???
DO YOU SIT AND WONDER,
about your DREAMS COMING TRUE,
If you want them EXIST,
It HAS to BEGIN WITHIN YOU,
START with a FOUNDATION, and then
Some kind of a PLAN,
PRAY OVER IT SINCERELY, and
THEN PUT IT IN GOD'S HANDS!!!!
So, ARE YOU ATTUNED???
Do you TRAVEL the HIGH SEAS???
Do you want to see the WORLD,
and explore things that
you would not believe???
Don't worry you will, and
it's coming real soon,
Just stay within balance
So, ONCE AGAIN,
ARE YOU ATTUNED???
