Grasping

And I beheld fog
Swirling, echoing my thoughts
Reaching out; to feel

If we could be so in tune with everything as the fog, we might know peace.

l had dreams of meeting you.
prayed that you and l could become one but l was never a believer who could fall in love at the first sight.

Blind Man’s Bluff

Offer sight to a blind man and he may refuse the notion,
Preferring to view the world through the lens of his heart;
Limited only by his own goodness and intention.

Or lack of it, as the case may be. :)

‘I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind. Blind but seeing. Blind people who can see, but do not see.’
- Jose Saramago, Blindness

Justice

My eye tells me I'm still 17 years old.
Sharing time with these classmates,
Their strength and compassion.
I am my criminal acts and the response which the law made against me.
Why did I hide my light of character in them?
To refuse my brother's good?
That I may stand with my own eyes - evil though they be?
For to live always under the guise of another's eyes is not justice.

Batting Your Fangs

there was something i wanted write
some thing i wanted to make right
but in the end, i lost sight
and moved on

there were many things i wished to do
many a thing that would've borne fruit
but nearer the finish, my light grew dimmish
so i moved on

you told me there was never
an answer to the question "forever"
but death knows different
because we move on

and there is no trying now
no sense in staving off the dying, anyhow
a distance merchant comes to pick up his purchase
of a bid you can't out

Zeus created lightning

You are to my eyes
What the stars in the sky
Whisper to their sisters
And to my ears
What the clouds
Rain down—
Zeus created lighting,
And sent you
To supply the boom
Thunder stolen
That i may hear,
Not only see,
You

Veiled sight

When your eyes go blind your heart tends to help with your sight, but when your heart goes blind you won't be able to see clear.
Even when having the best sight of all time.

Ocean Of Air

The pearly snow
Beneath my feet
As I tread

Underneath
Looking
Sky unfolds before me

Bright blues
Your silver-lined clouds interrupting the otherwise smooth ocean of air

Vast
Vibrant
The white-capped mountains zig-zagging along the distant horizon

Trees laid bare in front of eyes
Waving branches
As if in distress

I am inhabiting a dream

Believing found poignancy to be a temporary illusion
Too beautiful to exist in actuality

Reflective sight reminding paradise does in fact take residence on earth

About a beautiful almost enjoyable winter day in alaska

LIVING IT UP

LIVING IT UP

Never lose
sight of
the goals
you've set
for yourself.

Because only
you can
make your
dreams
come true.

And the best
way to earn
a dream is
inventing it
by living it up.
