Twisting wind whooshes,
Thunderstorm’s uncontrolled fits;
Town and country floats!

Weak minds
   block stronger voices.
for a voice that speaks
                              truths
always conflict with the
     rationalization of others
                             ignorance.

Never let lies seep beneath the
                          waters of truth
and float like away in the
   undercurrents of denial.

There are always layers to
                        truth..
But lies are only one layer
folded upon another getting
tighter and more unstable
with every moment its breathed.

Rain makes love to earth

I float in a dream,
Full of rain’s amorous sighs;
In fecund earth’s hugs!

Genocide Floats Beyond View

An estuary of decomposing
    virtues, bloated references
weave on the silence of a stream
                             of hidden dread.

Trying to hide the crimes of yesterday,
                flowing beyond their view.
But everything will eventually
                                caress the shores
of what was washed beyond their guilt.

Nothing that is washed away
         will ever be kept secret.
For everything will find a river
                                             of truth.
To be seen and deemed in dismay.
            Life isn't a river to be washed away.

Love and other drugs

She felt like she was on ecstasy

Whenever he was next to her

He felt like he was high-

She made him float

They became addicted to each other

For their company to one another was

Endless nights of euphoria

Pull Me Back

I feel like I been floating
Floating in life
Floating with every step I take
Floating into nothing
Just wasting space

My mind is floating
While my body functions

My thoughts are floating
Yet I can have a conversation

My body is present
Yet my soul is floating

How can I be one whole person?
Without pieces of me floating
I feel everything
Yet I feel nothing

I am emotionless
Yet my insides feel it all

I can breath
Yet I don't feel like I am

I can function
While I float away
Away from you
Away from everyone
Away from everything

Pull me back
Stop me
Stop me
Or
I will float away
All of me
Forever

No notes.

Warmth

It felt right. For the first time in a long time, I've never felt so aligned with the stars. It wasn't oh-no-whats-the-catch kind of happy, it was live-in-the-moment kind of happy, a one-gaze-for-communication happy, a clean-slate-start happy. It was everytime you'll fall you know someone's looking out for you. It was the warm and gentle water giving my back a place to let all my worries float, then I floated.
