i am cold
distant and hardened
to expose what lies hidden
be patient, and be warm
take heed, I am like glass
fragile to the touch
to which
i unfold

The Harbour of Le Havre;
A seascape
A perception of the heart
It’s brightest point -
Is yet diminished when deprived of colour
The canvases memorized piece

Not one moment to lose
I practiced my dancing
and put on my shoes
As we proceed
Arm and arm; you lead
One, two, three, four

it’s a kind scent that invades my lungs
it’s in the air like it is in the trees
how they can move without being pushed
how I can feel without being touched.

Hiding from the sick, the loud. Ugly world.
Never ending night. Turn on the porch light.
Little illumination. My only admiration.
Lock myself in. Wont come out.
A comfort home I am without.
For heaven's sake. Destination: new creation. Wait for me.

A fair, peaceful, cheerful, wonderful real world.
It's what I need. To escape from this poverty.
The bitter taste. Filthy waste.
The chronic venom fills me to the brim.
I hide my eyes from the foolish disguise.
Scream on my knees.
Moonlight barely seen.
Holding to this desperate plea.
Please hear me.

With my head and heart in His hand He said so pleasantly,
"My sweet. My lovely"

For the first time I could feel.
In a secret place. I can heal.
An everlasting dream.
Curled underneath a cherry tree.
Ribbons tied around so elegantly
Sunlight. White. Bright.
Rainbow view, shines through morning dew.
Velvet earth. Something gentle.
Take a breath. The brilliant sights. The soft sounds.
Clean, warm air. All that's rare.
Flood my veins.
Complete. Surreal.

Give me eternity.

Her hair winds down like branches on a tree.
Possesses the eyes of a doe, for they are kind.
Her skin glistens like rain in sunlight.
She wears garments like moss that spreads over nature.
Her movement is like the wind. Smooth a swift.
Travels like a cat chasing prey through terrain.
But her soul is far brighter.
She owns the spirit of an Eagle. She is strong.
Has the heart of a swan. Protecting her own.
Holds to what is good and curses the bad of intention.
With curiosity that beholds old and new.
Even in youth she practices wisdom.
Patience that transcends understanding.
Grace that bewilders the merciful.
Faith like ivy. Clinging, climbing and unshakable.

You said Trust me
I said Okay
And I did
I let you manipulate
All I knew
Was all you told me
And I was happy
Being lied to
But then I broke out
Of the box you placed me in
And I realized that there was more to life
Than cardboard and tape
I never knew
Because you said Trust me
You said the sky wasn't real
But then I flew
Here's the truth, the whole truth
Don't even ask if I left something out
This is my side of the story, my truth
I'll be hurt if you've a brain enough to doubt
Because this is the truth as I see it
And as I see it is the only way to see
So don't question, don't pursue answers
Close your mouth and mind and just believe
