What The New Day Brings

And through the darkness I see
Light
It's there
I reflect in hope

It's growing with the day
I see it
Through the cloud

The beauty
The dawn

Peace

strength of the imagination defines the risk factor of development
rely on yourself for the future you want
compromise where necessary but always keep sight of your goal
be who you think you are

How Deep
j a connor Nov 2023
My thoughts are a lost ocean
Seeking passage through winding canyons
Leading back to the source
The source of creation as perceived by the regimented structure of modern life ?
Modern life that views man's achievements as a eureka moment
A life that requires an explanation for all occurrences
I must climb deeper to the peak of this inverted mountain
To a time of wonder
No boundaries
Unprogrammed
It is almost within reach
In this depth lies the truth

To Boldly Go
j a connor Nov 2021
Trespassing in the wake of hope
I rise to the challenge of looking for optimism in all aspects of drama
To feel charged is preferable to being drained
What's the worst that could happen apart from the already inevitable

Political Thinking
j a connor May 2021
Don't believe however it is told
Listen
Think
Resist
Question the facts
Break the mould
Within lies nothing
But opinion
And
Interpretation
Judge for yourself
Is it true
Or
Perhaps
Retaliation

From The Forest
j a connor Nov 2021
through the morning mist they materialise
silent sentinels
that seem to rise
drawing hope from we who understand
the key of breath
the belief of man
without their presence
where would we be
our greed will **** us
long live the tree

I appear to have misplaced my life
I knew where it was until recently

I am just a beach
Pounded by the waves
Sand washed away
Different everyday

I am just a beach
Subject of the sea
Never to be free
Lost for.....
Eternity

I am just a beach
Some say the shore
Others
The ocean's *****
No purpose
No more

The Warm World
j a connor Aug 2021
Stray thoughts
Drifting on a summer breeze
Feeling like the new dawn
Warming the disease

It's alright
All is well

This is my kinda heat

But it
Is
Really
The start of Hell
j a connor Dec 2021
far away
                   in my mind
all is well

sheltered from the outside world
dark and chilled
                    far from hell

left alone to create a scene
happy to believe
                    life's still a teen

but late at night
                            when I can't help                   but dream
its a place of nightmares



where my heart
                                                              goes to scream

Here today
Where tomorrow
Who knows
Back to the future
The past will go  
I'm moving on
6.00 AM on the morning tide
Maybe I should just forget my pride
Got a new life  
Don't you know
So
Why
Can't
I
Let you go

Must I look around
Involving myself in expanding intimacies
Something created from so much
But very little
Pushing me from the importance of the infinite
Rotating without break
Encompass all
No matter
No willing
I must float
Flex
Descend
Cease
If I am here
I must belong
