Bravery
Thomas Apr 2013
Standing in the eye of the storm
Whirlwind changes the landscape
People and places in the blink of an eye
Content to watch, mixed emotions appear
I'm happy with this sight
I'm happy with my place
At least I have been
But I'm thinking now
Just might be the perfect time
To step through the winds
I don't intend to be swept away
My eyes will betray me
But my feet will keep me grounded
My mind will keep me in one direction
I will cross through this storm
And emerge upon the other side
Changed, and in new lands
Cast your anchor, fall from the storm,
Walk with me

Blindsided
Thomas Apr 2013
Amazing how one person
with one conversation
and one intention
can get in your head
Words are a lifetime lived in seconds
Breath gives them soul,
Mouth give them form,
and listener gives them purpose
How did your words cut into me so beautifully?
When did you make me care for you so?

Defeated
Thomas Apr 2013
Im at my lowest point
Just...wow
but I refuse to give in
my heart is stronger than it appears
Maybe I'm just stubborn
but I'm most different than I was
more than ever
and *******
THIS EXISTANCE
I will see my purpose throgh til the end
And this world
WILL NEVER BE THE SAME

Self meets shadow
shadow meets light
Light absorbs shadow
A soul's true delight

Bold and daring
Mountain with a beasts rage
Eagerly subduing the weak
To make yourself strong
You walk a line with one person in mind
Deflecting sentiments from those who care
Hypocrasy be thy name
you do none of what you say
Psychotic be thy face
evil in your eyes these days
I hope you wise the **** up
May you recover the sanity lost
Before your bones rest under the cross

The Children of the Sun
Thomas Feb 2013
Inner flame lay dormant
Blazing ember hid neath earthly gates
Cosmic union a revelation away
Union with the Light that casts no shadows
Polished perception
Creator and Created
........awake........

You and I
Thomas Mar 2013
Thank you
You have shown me all the ways I will never succeed
in friendship and in deed
Truly I can never be who you want me to be
And I'm okay with that
Selfish and alone
I will stand tall
Though I am the truest contradiction
To perfection and goodness
I am cut from the same cloth as all
Selfish and alone is my path
and I will walk this road until my knees buckle
and all hope is lost

"I"
Thomas Feb 2013
"I"
Thought arises
One after one
An image of myself
has just begun
I am this
I am not that
a constant veil
In white and black
And all the while this show will play on
and silently inside i wait to be gone
Absorbed in a bliss beyond time and space
Essence of form is always my face

duality teaches

You would never believe me
Thomas Feb 2013
Light shown through the pale curtain
Awakened from distant slumber
to meet an Angel with no face
And a dream I dont remember

Shadow pervades all corners of this room
A light from the window reveals the form
Not fearful but not calm bewildered I stared
A butterfly wing immense up there

For a while it floated in space
Above my bed where my body dost lay
Wrinkles in the curtain portray its sway
Familiar in spirit terrifying in form
Ever watchful over my

A sigh of relief
Thomas Apr 2013
Theres nothing I can say
To communicate what I want
this is not an attempt to try
However, may all beings
see themselves as what they are
absolutely perfect
May there always be a light amongst the darkness
and may all people experience what is for the highest good of all

Inevitable
Thomas Apr 2013
I feel you
beneath my skin
Waiting
plotting
but I wont give you the satisfaction
cry as I elude your book of time
you *******
I've had enough
this ends now

A few words
Thomas Jul 2013
Im so tired of these people
Im tired of being one of these people
The majority are mindless drones paving their own road towards their deaths

But I often forget
that when one points the finger outside of their self
They're really neglecting to look at the mess inside
I should pay more attention to the roads I am paving

Alone
Thomas Apr 2013
Laying here
thoughts in my head
staring at the ceiling
may as well be dead
But thoughts keep me going
the way they always have
Mystery and fantasy
Is all i've truly had
for if she lied next to me
id tremble and shake
in my soul id lie in disbelief
that perfection could awake
And in her grumbles awakened from slumber
i would be amazed
for just a second, so happy to see
her beautiful smiling face

Really alone
Thomas Apr 2013
Words spoken
aren't truth
Its like writing a dream
So much is lost in translation
someone show me an opening
show me something equal
To what I feel
I'll give you everything
you ever wanted

This heart
Thomas Feb 2013
I sit here alone
inside my head
and wait for this drive to wear off
The more i crave
your company
the more i feel so distraught

Your eyes mysterious
theres so much to study
the details reveal your soul
And as i delve deep into your mind
your heart i truly behold

But i must step back
and see the big picture
you are not mine in this scene
i pray someday to hold my True Love
Under suns blinding glean

Lifes Greatest Illusion
Thomas Feb 2013
Be mine forever
You make my whole world turn
Be mine for all time
Until the world crumbles and burns
This cant be real
But I've never been so sure
Will you care for my heart?
I will worship yours

Blank, aware
inside this body
a force moving limbs effortlessly
what am I?
How do I do this?
Again and again I ask myself
to no avail
what am I
WHO AM I??!
