#scatter
If we’d carefully addressed our nuances We wouldn’t be in this mess… If we’d spoken to the heart rather than the heartless head… If we hadn’t turned this planet into a closed and open hell… Like a giant burning cruise ship full of mere shells, piercing into the earth’s former self… We ignore the trees; the trees that show us magnificence and mystery; destroying their epic lives in a heartbeat… But the trees whisper through connected fungi, working as a team for longevity, with no concept of antipathy… And in dark forests on the sunniest days we still glimpse those rays of true beauty… We still have a responsibility in our vastness to steer this ship of souls in the right direction, in conjunction with nature and all of it’s adaptations… Why stare into one hole in a cave when there are a million different pools and palaces shining through the crystal cracks, all waiting to join as we chip away at a new haven… Imagine what aliens would think then when they came to visit our shimmering, all-embracing, reciprocal creation… I remember ones almost my age who saved this vision early on, looked at me straight in the eye and winked as I was gone…

Scatter-ship
The loneliness I face Will never be forgotten by my soul. The darkness that caught me, The light wind that scattered me, Wondering like gossip whispering near me. I’ve faced many waves, but none like that. Now fear enters my soul— The fear looks like a killing weapon to my soul. Yet still, I stand—unbroken, whole, With hope and fire within my soul.

The face of darkness
I leave myself all over the place then retrace my steps and while I try to collect myself there's pieces I forget

In pieces
My emotions Are scattered And you are the salt shaker, Using them little by little, Until I'm bare.

Scatter my feelings
never ending possibilities of you, and i; tearing you apart in pieces, scattering away your happiness.

never ending
Your thoughts are far from the ground, Like cumulonimbus clouds thundering by And pouring rain. 
 Life seems to pass by, scattered and wispy 
 with the sound of the wind like a whistling train playing as you stare at the elusive silver lining. The pit patter of Peter Pan being lost dwells heavy in your heart, As you revise the sequence of the cumulus memories. Life paces As you ignore the malice and bantering of the crowds Sticking your head above up into the clouds half-deaf to reality in the room. You have a foot in a fairy tale, And one in the abyss.

Clouds
A trail of smoke rises, A died down pyre,broken clay *** Crows eat scattered rice.

Remains of an eventful life
You made the stars And I scattered them in the sky.

Stars and sky.
I raised my hopes amazed From dust to package and ****** Blinded by charms into your arms Forced to watch now without affecting the how Twisting restlessly beneath sea Doesn't matter if they scatter or drop and shatter Heard them fall and not hurt at all Crashing is nothing new in fact it's why I grew Another crack won't cause a heart attack If my hopes weigh too much that's okay Let them go to be swept below I will pick up the pieces and use glue to stick Until every single hope I own is ready to once again fly

Raised Hopes
Fare well hello there, Put the comma where you like, Goodhi, I am pleased to had been meeting you, In this world of mime, Our hellos, the same as goodbyes, As soon I say hi, you already said bye, And vice versatile how we speak our words to mean different things. Hello Poetry, I am please two half met you, Under these circumstances, If only I could see you later, Talk to you next time we meet again and again we find ourselves in these strange situations. What ever will we do things really have to be this way? Fare well hello there. I guess it depends on what words you decide to read me something nice so I can fall asleep. .Goodbye Poetry.

Scatter~Gather
Ride through my veins, driven by your cruelty and anger Leave me nothing, but those shadows and dark places, You were afraid to touch, afraid to enter, As my broken hands clenched red fabric, Twisted it ‘round as whispered screams echoed. The cracks though my being, held together by silken webs. A rough touch enough to break me and scatter, My mirrored reflection towards the stars.

Ridden
Shadows dance along whitewashed walls scattered dark shapes float in the air outlining thin patches of sunshine splattered like yellow paint on my bedroom wall staring out the window feeling more depressed than before thinking of reaching up taking the glowing ball by its feathers of light taking it in my arms and carrying it away not to hide it from the world but only to scatter sunshine

Thoughts take off From dandelion head I lost them but found one In the palm of your hand

"We'll dance with monsters In the night" *You say with pleasure; With really blind sight You told me it is fine But I think you are too kind Onto me you have thrown All your suction of hopes Cutting down the thorns; Cutting down the ropes Ousting this flame To show me that you came I am sorry to be saying But all your love was wasted As my garden is decaying Before you could have tasted What I hold Is not so very sweet So I will just be bold We should've never meet I failed to be the light You found in love I failed to be your pigeon; I failed to be your dove And the monsters killed the melodies, the ones that you dream Unloved they forever were; Their sorrows built a stream A stream where tears shine And the lost beasts are mine These silent beasts are now Just beginning to sound Mercilessly, I cried out; Blatantly, I have fallen down And I just can not pick my Happy off the ground You're building a palace Where I do not belong 'Cause I have only been taking The sing from your song I know that you have Been very burnt But every new fire Is a new lesson learnt I am Sorry for making You feel this pain I am Sorry for putting Your heart through this flame Just please do not say You love me I might not say it back Please just stay in intact And stop all this play; Forever is not real. Just really close your eyes 'Cause I do not want you seeing Throughout my disguise I am carefully trying to replace our bodies For to all my cages and doors, Are very lost keys There is something terribly wrong With our lungs It is this poison of love   That we have been breathing in too long It has fractured our hearts Turned it really mauve Made us golden pale It has destroyed our sail Shattering our wings Scattering all the feathers Like fast demons fly Through the weary sky As pretty as you make this tragedy feels, Broken and poor Life is just too blue To ever truly be La vie en rose* -fir.m

Secrets
My lips are pierced shut While my brain is scattering across the floor. Everything is spilling out in front of you. I'm breaking down And loosing composure. Struggling to collect the the pieces In time before you make sense of it all. Tiny fragments of grey matter Covered in words you should have never read.

Grey Matter
Scatter my broken heart on a bed of thorns, Trample the pieces, make it splinters, Look ahead, it's all forlorn, What is the point of mending this nothingness?

A broken heart
Pearl flakes, delicate shards scatter, shatter. Woven silently, heavily softly, slowly, wafting. Swirling into sparkling sundials.
