The day has come
We will meet
Most of us
Can we all sustain
Our intentions or bust
Can we find intimate moments
Where we share pain and guilt
Where we find joy and happiness
Where we rekindle our trust
Can we walk side by side
Feeling close and be fine
Where we want to lead and to follow
All the same in one steps time
No annoyance uninhibited laughter
Give us a few hours
We rebuild
There is still one central figure
When we part
We hope  we are all in this guild

Felt as if I was in the barrens
No Horizons with a setting sun
No trees giving shade
No mindless fun
Tried to reach out
No responses everywhere
Where was I all this time
Didn't catch realities diverse
Now I woke
The barrens have left my soul
I feel free
There are no doubts
Welcoming challenges are on their way
(c)near_lane7

To a new age
Replace door
Between incompetence
And applied principles
(c)near_lane7

Three points
Three directions
Interruptions
Connections
Set destinations
A triangle

Circles' lines indefinite
Parents' follow
Families move
Within the circle
Distances shift
(c)near_lane7

Ideas plummet into belief
Solidify
Become convictions denials
any true facts
Caught in the eyes
Which close
To avoid *******
Conserve and intensify
Their own misconceptions
(c)near_lane7

Don't want to go back
To before I met you
Tell me there is no need
To dig up old wounds
Long gone history
A place I have been
Where I felt lost and weak
Trapped in my own skin
You helped me shed
My layers of doubt
Which strangled my senses
I realize now
Thank you for being
A beautiful mind
A treasure of hope
In this enduring life

Drain me of pleasure
To be numb frightful and bound
Sink your teeth into my flesh
Rob me of willpower
So I can crawl into myself
A heap of my being
Let me rest steam for the hour
I will escape my jail
And head for the shower
(c)near_lane7

A young boy in surrender
To his skills' fears and foes
Is overhearing arguments
Affecting him most
Youthful and helpful
Naive it can't be
Troubles are brewing
Not to be told
It
He can't see
Not to grab the extent
Of problems not his own
His family's fairing
No solution to save home
So he wanders and abandons
He did listen through the wall
Never spoke spoken to
The end of it all
(c) near_lane7

Populists gaining attraction
Throwing lies
As they were Molotov cocktails
Single words
Repeated in different colours
Crowds are on 🔥
Repeating
ancient techniques
have resurfaced
Sidestepping humanities values
The heat is building
Reason lost
(c)near_lane7

Revealing to myself
Who am I
Not hidden away
Under clothes
warmth and comfort
Now an explicit show
See my faults
Enjoy my features
Like my presence
In the ****
(c)near_lane7

Gone down the ladder
Climbing back up the steps
Positions are changing
In societies frames
(c)near_lane7

Passion eludes me
When I get lost in a task
Can't let go of the draw
To change and to build
Awake my passion
For love and desire
Give me your yearnings
Let's once more
Light this bonfire
When we ****** into sensations
Together we are whole
And soak in uncontrolled dreams
Nightmares are now on hold
(c)near_lane7

An organism is born
Out of laughter then envy then fear
A pattern easily followed
Mean deeds remain and tear
Truth not the subject
Imaginations have the reign
Battle is brewing
Yet there is the laughter
Of conspiracies' fame

I walked to the hollow
The empty in my soul
Trees surrounded me
Moving and tall
In the middle a dead one
Bare of skin
Now a pole
I looked up alongside
There to find hope in the blue sky
I am where I have been

Break through my wall
My **** of distrust
Relieve me of anger
Show me a new pass
I beg you to lead me
Away from who I am
Into a new sharing place
An illusion just has been penned
(c)near_lane7

Somewhere I don't know yet
Urge myself into seeing
The truth in mankind
Not the questioning feeling
Why is life like that
Competitions and must smells
Odor interpretations
Paintings in words
The abstract is forming
Got fuel for my fire
Play with my naked toes
Desires are churning
Sparkling Amber's up close
Erotica comesto me
My doom has become hope
Aware are my senses
I will stop any speculation

Where do they March
Symptoms of a time
Repeated in history
Collected discarded resurrected
Blunt statements of ideas
Based on good will
Distorted and fractioned
They divide become a bitter pill
Blunt statements of facts
Pushed aside
Blamed as treason
Applicable everywhere
Explore and discover Reasons
(c)near_lane7

Repaired but not really broken
Was the verdict
When I examined my online find
In this time of distance
Brought home by a third party guy
It showed within a few days
Paid up and as honest as being seen
Repairs done by professionals
My BMW requested
some careful screen
Now home she likes the street
She hugs and she leans
A thrill to drive
Great pleasure indeed

More running into lampposts
Glass shattered
Lightbulbs explode
Bump on my head
Radiator blown
All in a one night's dream
Just realized and remembered
Where is the core
Where is the truth
It never did happen
Mind games
Drawn from the unconscious
It's good to be still living
Brainwaves in dis array
(c)near_lane7

Sooner or later
I ought to write this letter
A decision has been made
Families' history prolonged
Like it or object
There is no room for that point
Flowers shall be placed
Every summer
By an unknown
Every body welcome
to stop by
And wonder
Where the descendants have gone
(c)near_lane7

The day is waiting

(c)flatfielder

Drum up the memories
Slide into your past
Enter a long lane
Where blurred memories
Identify dreams
Long ago cast
Push away your Demons
The ones who haunt you
now and then
Cause those you want to forget
Not the good times you had
(c)near_lane7

Feel like crying
Scream literally
Tight in my chest
Want to bust that wall
Release my anxiety my fear my none
Been told and ignored
Must endure but how long
Longtime ago said goodbye
To my flashes hotspots
It has come back
**** the past
Am I a fraud
A Scheister looser
Bailed so many times
Brought forward are the questions
move on your miles are stretched
One last hurry
Walk that mile
Make that a quest
(c)near_lane7

Walls surround me
I think I am trapped
Pressure is building
Where is my map
Misplaced with other things
Too focused I have been
On unimportant matters
Will I find the escape
To once more try again
But time is running short
Options No
Have arrived at the stormy cape
(c)near_lane7

When a king went into exile
Someone rescued his soul
When the crowd came closing in
Freedom fighters
with survivals' goal
Stern rulers now must leave
The story of revolving
A cycle mankind weaves

Looking at my own head
A globe on a torso
Two ears are the poles
Two eyes the oceans
Flooding empathy's tears
Add many selfish looks
No answers expecting
Long nose the sniffer
distinguishes fears
While the mouth is the gobbler
will **** in all the pleasures
A foodies tastebuds at work

One has chosen to be in exile
Even when submerged
in a crowds game
Done to myself there is no shame
The feeling of exile
Within the whole of me
Suddenly my ear itches
It shuts me down
It throws me off
My irrational thinking
The buzz in my ear
(c)near_lane7

Rigid thoughts defy
(c)near_lane7

Clinging of hard heels
March of oppression
The arenas are packed
Lies shine there is no lesson
The pendulum swung
In this one way direction
Fear and cowardice
Don't even dare a different mention
(c)near_lane 7

Left and erased
A connection just dropped
By technical action
Didn't overpower that want
Still widened the distance
This one way street
Will there be a sign of living
Coming down against the beat
of souls' connections never ending
Let them be lost
but never gone
(c)near_lane7

Life as it is
The etching it leaves
Soft core
Engraved
Through an acid rhyme
(c)near_lane7

Naked in the sunrise
Reflection on crusting snow
Short time  refreshing
Dare the gentle cold
Temperature is rising
Blood rushing
It feels good
(c)near_lane7

Feel free to enter
You may open this book
A moment in my time
It's not about the look
Where I dare to express
With professional photos and lines
To you and me
Let's discover the fines
There is me now
No excuses for a life
Supported and shaped
So wholeheartedly
By You not just my wife
(c)near_lane7

Try to tame my rhyme
To find more expression
free verse reads so well
Many writers have the possession
Would like to try
Will be reading more
Moreso in succession

Complexities these verses harbor
Climaxes achieved
Always makes me wonder
Of the depth of the seas
(c)near_lane7

Leave stones and sweat
Floers' fragrance in summer
Limitations set forth
Watching the blue sky
Or the waves of the sea
Erased from view
Parents' nightmares
Memories, war, refugees ,prisoner
Yet the earth doesn't budge
A spiritual foothold
This plot remains sacred
As long as I live
Plants shall now die
Transplanted and sad
To either in the sunlight
They lost the will to live

Words are meaningless
Actions are what matter most
So I have been told
Just not my view

Words of comfort
Words of hate
People's reactions
Will tell you of their fate
(c)near_lane7

Weigh the unconscious
Movements and touch
Put into hibernation
There is liberty
A state I found such
Never want to wake
Keep doing
You Angles of Dreams
(c)near_lane7

Romance fizzles
Acts still alive
Alive as well as always
Giving high fives
(c)near_lane7

Will tell about
An individual's fate
Raising one's hopes
In realities scorn
Horizons seem closer
Far away now
One's day of birth
Longings for love
Emotional highs
Triumph the lows
In memories' Grove
(c)near_lane7

Democracies yield
To capitalistic excesses
Then destructed by revolutions
Which end in chaos
(c)near_lane7

Remind me of You
Cause I devour Love
(c)near_lane7

The Ode to Joy
Hummed everywhere
(c)near_lane7

My old bike
It just didn't want to take me
Another kickstart
Was this a maybe
I did feel resistance
Another try
And you go
Now we can ride
Feel the oxygenated air
Until reminded
I am low on fuel
Stop and replenish
At the next feeding station
We burn and we power
Every day every hour
(Near_lane7

Sit still at this minute
Legs dangle in the wind
Feel like tall grass
In the open meadows maze
You climbed
The edge of this rock
Where mind and body unify
Sense of mild disclosure
Who are you
Where have you been
#(c)near_lane7

Ya right
Down the middle
Separated or joined
Ideology or mayhem
A country split
Let healing begin
Outsiders are listening
Histories' comparisons being made
Read and educate
Acknowledge true Media
Start your own
Throwing insults at each other
Never heals a bleeding womb
Ignore slapstick politics
A tool right now used
(c)near_lane7

Short whispers
We long for silence
A cushion of air
invisible distance between two
leaf drops in the zone
Eye lids whimper
Glowing irises
Meet in pairs
(c)near_lane7

Soft was my texture
When we met
You liked my eyes
I was enthralled by all of you
We shared a new Lands sheet
Worked made children
Raised them fair
Love is a big word'
You once said
Just before our journey slowed
to a long days love affair

Not to need a reason
For explaining a state
Found in advanced aging
When past nowhere on a scale
Avoiding comments or displeasure
With oneself
It's society within to reside
Steps are shorter now
No leaps leaning wide
Enter the new hemisphere
Without temptations glide
(c)near_lane7

My time is limited
To undo what I've done
Remorse never questioned
Tunes majorities sang
Quietness overwhelmed me
Hearing the warning bells
Everybody had the possibility
To at least help turn that key
To the truth documented
Defined observed
A glance
(c)near_lane7

When resolutions become
empty space
In a lifetime
Why wanting to change
Only to adapt
To what is the question
Individualism is speaking out
Remind yourself while living
Of your adrenalin your strength
Do you hear your breakout shout
(c)near_lane7
