We pick up where we left off
Those deep brown eyes
And that side slide smile
My heart offsets its rhythm
Your arms wrapped around me
And it feels like perfection
A completed puzzle
Of lust and safety
Never-ending summer evenings
It feels like home
And I think you feel it too

Bin
Sometimes I wish I really was a bin.
Trash could fill my surrounds, and in.
******* would be in my mind,
I sometimes I could hope,
that a coin
might land
inside
.
A graphically pleasing poem written about embodying my alter-ego transformation.

As I lay in the darkness
Playing with shadows
Entertaining phantoms
That may never pass
The moon slowly ducks
Behind some houses
The sky is still dark
But a solitary birdsong
Cuts through the darkness
Like a knife
A lonely but brave call
To the sun to free it
From the darkness
So it may spread it's
Wings once more and
Take flight.
The solitary song
Continues sad but
Brave and beautiful
My heart hurts
For this tiny creature.
For how can it trust
That the sun will
Respond to it's lonely call
As it echos though the still night?
But then through the inky darkness
As the silence settles in
Another faraway song begins
To ****** through the night air
And another and another...
Beautiful brave calls
Determined to break the darkness
In their unity.
Different sounds echo in
A chorus across the already
Lightening night sky,
As though their very calls
Are strong enough to call
Forth the sun
And pull it up by it's roots
And for a moment I nearly believe it.
The chorus grows louder
And more diverse
Pretty song birds
Twittering sweet notes
To the lush low of seagulls
Calling to the sun to rise up
And suddenly as if
Beckoned by their calls
A single ray of sun breaks
The horizon
As their song
Hits a crescendo
And then a lull
As though temporarily humbled
By the sun's answer
To their call
Before bursting
Into full chorus again
In celebration and awe
As the sun rises
For another beautiful day.

And the bravest he felt,
When she smiled at him,
Giving him the simplest pleasure,
Which could rival with the God's garden of Eden alone
red
out there I see a red world
but in here all there is is a faint white glow
the glow is small
it's found to be very few
among a world of giant flashing red lights
lights that black out all the beauty within
the red lights channel anger
my anger inside
the faint white glow gives hope
hope to all those lost
in the world of red

Flow for the soul
Art for the heart
It's time for your mind to see
truly able to be free
Did you know that your influenced
By people you don't know
Would we continue to let people
Be the front runners of our species
Who just hate who just bring pain
Who lie and cheat for the only reason to get more rich more money more power. Is thius what life truly is. No this is not. I know you know this is the truth... It isn't some *******. Actors and story tellers amount te highest paid.... People who control social media are paid more then so many doctors... While hospitals. This makes no sense... How is it we let the industrial revoulutial and the birth of commercialism a ruin the human race. Not saying we were perfect at anytime... But like really there were people willing to give freedom and we sat by and let those people be pushed away even killed... This is why we need to stand tall talk about the issues the brain washing by mass media to tell you what you want what you need. We are human and we must learn to live together.

I need some happy poetry
I'm tired of sadness
I'm tired of not seeing the sun
And the bright side of things

I need some happy songs
I've been lost for too long
I need to find myself now
No time to get stuck in the past

I'm more than what
Never let me smile
I'm tired of this charade
I'm tired of being cold

I want to get lost gazing
At the possibilities in the stars
Not at their fateful destruction
Not at their fall to nothing

I needed some happiness
For some time now
Because I broke the chain
That dragged me down
