Blind Aesthetic Oct 2015
Seeing things out of focus
Distorted views
Shadows on shadows
On walls that don't exist
Outside
The confines of the mind.
Tunnel vision
Through open fields
Blind to the wonders
That surround ones self
Happiness is
You're only lost
If others pave your road for you
Sounds of life
The echoes of death
Collections of thoughts
Meanings morphing
Changing
Losing and growing
Through individuals
Molding and defining
Based on the past
Events those of which
Are not shared
Where does the shallow end
How far do we go
Before something
Becomes more than skin deep
Walking backwards
Eyes closed
Turning around
Only to see
If the destination
Has been reached
Not knowing
What
The destination is
Scenic routes
No entry point
Mental landscapes
Lost in a shroud
Of doubt
Scent of rain with clear
skies
Life
Incomplete works of art
Eyes closed
Mind open for business
Musings
A collection of lost puzzle pieces
Dillusional
Abstract
Shapeless
Incoherent prose
The glass is either half empty
Or half full
Depending on the contents
Striving for more
Is the nature of everything.
Stagnant pools of empty thoughts
Time wasted
Following refractions of light
The abscence of light
Seeing only what others want
The future
Holds
What I chose to hand it
Sara Brooke Aug 2015
Pour me some more Malibu and Cream Soda
Jump in the truck let’s go for a ride
Why don’t we go wade in the pool for awhile
Then when we get done there
Let’s get dressed up and cruise the town for the night
Just make sure you have that Malibu on hand for when the cups get empty
I’ll take you anywhere you want to go as you slide a little closer baby
Grab my hand and turn up the radio let’s find ourselves a back road
I know that you’re nervous girl but I can promise you don’t have to be
I can show you the best time of your life if you just let me
Let me just taste those sweet lips of yours
If it’s not what you expected all you have to do is just say so
I’ll back off but I’m not going to lie I’ll be praying that you can’t get enough
Let’s find a place to get lost at and I’ll hold you close to me
What do you say girl let’s lay in the back of the truck and star at the stars
Don’t worry I’ll let you use me as a pillow so it’s not so painful to your head
I’ll keep you warm and safe from all that could be out in the dark
Don’t let it bother you baby I’m right here to protect you
Why don’t you just tell me about your wildest dreams
I’ll tell you anything that you don’t already know about me
Let’s talk about everything we have always wanted to do but never got to
Let me make your wildest dream come true
Come on just take my hand and I promise to show you a good time
