Sat on a train
and I gaze along
face after face
of strangers
that all share
this same moment
in time and space
and yet they're
all so vacant,
staring into space
and time bears
no relevance,
cause its the same thing
day in day out,
all of us sat there,
headphones intact
listening to our
own soundtracks
as we make our way
through tunnels
unaware of the tracks sound
as we're shuttled around
and I'm dumbfounded
by how wisdom
is found in the loss of interaction,
sat across a
man in a suit 
clocking up percentages
and in a fraction,
I've took stock
and mocked up
a story for him
through his action ,
this one man
of many in this
age of distraction
Until  this traction 
created by volt-age
comes to a halt
as this train stops
at the station,
my station in sight,
this stationary moment
of insight interrupted
as doors open,
my form plateaus
as I step onto
the platform,
leaving this
train of thought
for another one,
adjourned as
I Journey on.

If your Heart's not in it

There's only so long

your Head will hold out..
I feel for me the route of any depressive state I've ever entered has been due to a distinct lack of being involved in or doing what I love in life often because I've lost sight in pain, fear or the mundane

If I put my tears
In a bucket
Sailed them out to sea
The bucket would
Bare  Down
Ship

Sinking
to
The Blue

A tear
For
Every
Wish, kiss and
Time   I     Said
"I    love     you."

Down, down, down

Fish won't pass it by
They know danger
Of Lasses Brine
It would join
The others

In The
Shipwrecked
Cemetery

Where pails
beckon
Algae
From
Long
Lost time

Your pain
Eating away
My memory

A graveyard of
Once loved
But no longer in heart

Creating
A rocky
Start

Pebbles will wash
Upon
The shore

With a rumble
A tumble
Sharp edges no more

One day.      FAR.    I  fear
I will  tred back to that
Place

Pick up a stone
Remembering
Your face

I will not shed
A
Tear

A smile will play
My lips
Instead

I might
Close my
Eyes

I might say
Your
Name

But now you
are just a fond
Memory

No longer sound
Makes  heart
Beat

Adding you instead
To my
Treasure chest

Knowing that you
Leaving
Was best

Created this awhile back. As most would guess it is from a break up. It turns out I was right because I have found my true soul-mate.

We're all victims to our mind
We feel what we let ourselves feel
Our unconscious thoughts drive our activities
Drive our sanity level off the bridge
We are prisoners of ourselves
Free whenever we discover this
Brains wrapped in orange,
Jumpsuits of oblivion
Looking to reflections to define ourselves
Describing not what we are
But who we aspire to one day be

Our hearts play a song
Beat something we cannot understand
Stop beating when we neglect them
Our minds electrify life with the ability
To learn, to change, to grow, to be
Our bodies are a catalyst to these
Moving to the beats of our hearts
Dancing to the electric fire of our minds

Our consciousness looks to the flaws
Looks to improve, and be happy
When if we really pause
To look within at the glory
Of all we have,
The grief doesn't seem like
The hell we make it
Insight is a rarity for my writing.

It is all around us
a realm we cannot see
but unlike this weighted world
there we can be free

It is never subject
to senses yet untuned
it is like a vapor
lit only by the moon

another dimension?
perhaps this will explain
but you will surely know it
as an unseen rain

though it has all knowledge
it will only tell
those who practice wisdom
like the music of a shell

but you must place that cockle
to a patient ear
those who are impatient
perhaps will never hear!

you won't see see it glowing
with a human eye
but it is ever present
as real as you or i

though it is very lovely
through spirt-eyes is seen
it is the real world

our own is just a dream.

I wish I could say that
I have seen the spirit rhelm
(The side of light)
I saw my bible glowing
and shimmering once
When I opened it
But that is the extent of
My spirit-sight thus far.
I know that I know
It exists.
I pray to experience it again!
Jesus Christ is a real person.
And sometimes He
Manifests Himself to those
Who love Him in spirit and truth.

Really looking back
I noticed there are many different kinds of people

Some were meant to leave
Some were meant to stay

Some needed you
Some wanted you
Some were closer than a brother
Some were very far away

Some loved you with all their heart
Some never loved you
Some were mothers
Some were sisters
Some looked right through the smoke
Some couldn't see tomorrow

Some needed saving
Some needed to drown

I've felt them all
Follow the map

Don't think that I don't see
just because I'm not there
for you to view me
glancing through you.
I know.
The Terry Tree Dec 2014
You are the echo
On the other side
Of the room
In my heart
You are the beat
That drums within
Every brand new
Day I start

You are the rise
You are the fall
Of every sun
And every moon

Every moment
That I turn around in
If I want to give up
You tell me,
"Not yet,
It's too soon..."

You are the hope
In which I live and dream
The silver clouds and
Colored schemes

I am grateful for my arms
To embrace the love
I've found
In you

I am grateful for my words
To speak the truth
Of how you make
Me feel

I am grateful for my nerves
That send the signals
To let me know
You are here

I am healed

I am grateful for my eyes
For without them
I would have
No sight

Hold me now
In this moment I have found
I am on a journey
To your house of
Living light

I am empowering
My deepest nature
You are the word that
Enlightens my
Destiny
You are the echo
That resonates
Within me

Unearth this infinite
Measure from within
That I can sense
You are the ultimate
Eternal presence

Wake me up
No, let me sleep
You are the holy place
Inside that I never
Want to leave

There are two wolves
Deep within my heart
A wolf of love
And a wolf of hate
I feed the wolf
That resonates
With your love
For your love
Is my love
And my love
Is your
Love

Brilliant, shining
Gorgeous love
Penetrating
From above

I allow this place
To hold me at
All times
I allow your
Breath of love
To rise
Inside
Me like
A dove

My lungs are filled
With truth
My lungs are filled
With you
A breath of wings
Fly like prayers
That say thank you
To your incredible
Warmth as you
Swarm around me
You are there
With a vibration
I can't see
But I can recognize
As your fire
Melts away all pain
Before my
Eyes

You are the echo
On the other side
Of the room
In my heart
You are the beat
That drums within
Every brand new
Day I start

My echo
My sacred journey
My love-connection
The ultimate direction
My favorite footprint
Unsurpassable
Presence of
Protection

I am open to your love
And the boundaries that
Separate me from
The rest of the world
Fall away as I
Evolve

You enlighten
You revolve
You are
A bright blue
Reflection
A sun-filled
Soft Blanket
Of affection

I journey to
Your life house
You are my
Dreamcatcher
My new way of being
You are
The beautiful echo
I'm living and
Breathing

Black eyes, bruised wrists, mangled genitals.
Ribcage extruding; calling for love, lust, and cigarettes
Faces offensive; unmet eyes, and searing expressions.
Scars on arms; speaking louder than quiet voices
Staring blank; at bills yet paid
Thinking there is no way
Imaging the fall from your 3rd floor
Apartment
Weighing funeral costs over living expenses
Death would put you deeper in a hole
Not able to get out, saying how
Did I get here.
Looking up seeing the opening nearly
Closed; finger lye at the only opening left.
Hope.
Being crushed brutally, whilst you see it all
happen.
Blood rains on your pale face, craving
Sunlight.
Dismemberment of fingers, brings you into total darkness.
Styles Nov 2014
Be yourself cause everyone else is taken.
Because everyone else is faking.
Life is yours for the making,
All that money making
Ain't worth what they making.
They just making bread
They not Caking.
I over here
we celebrating,
Records spinning
Until I break them
These moves you gotta make'em
The time is yours for the taking
Being broke could never break him
Got me going hard, causing mayhem
While haters try to slay him
too busy balling to even play them
To focused to pay attention
Not even an honorable mention
On my path
Had it coming
Now it's time to make that day
My mind Manifest and I stood the test
Now my blessings are on there way.
