Biding Time
Current mood: determined
Category: Writing and Poetry

Riding my magic carpet

Flying high up in the sky

Passing the clouds faces

As I swiftly fly on by

I can't see anything but blue

Touching it with my hands

It disappears like truth

Lightning flashes a command

With their mocking breath

I sing a song out of tune

The smiles turn to frowns

Fly towards the suns loom

When I reach it's sizzling surface

My dream will surely end

Tasting rainbows along the way

For this life I cannot mend

Prevailing would be surviving

Just breathing until its time to not

Like a patient fighting terminal ail

Biding time before it gets too hot

I want to keep flying high

Forgetting all the whys

The taunting ground laughs

Evil's tear drops into lies

Will never mend in this fantasy

Must become wild and strong

Combat evil that reigns my heart

To ride in truth... I long

Tearless Nights
Category: Writing and Poetry

My thoughts are all running together

Like rain into a dirty sewer drain

Into a secluded vat of indifference

The light no longer shines for me

Merely glows where I cannot see

Cannot breathe under the tight of this chain

Alas… punishment is well deserved

 However, not by the beast you think

One where the world is beyond lovely

The light no longer shines for me

Merely glows where I cannot see

My eyes are bleeding from taking this drink

The ache for forgiveness is blinding

A shadowed sun beams pure black

In an existence of lackluster ignorance

The light no longer shines for me

Merely glows where I cannot see

Faith in the sea will one day bring me back

Give me your strength to borrow

To fight for what is right and light

In this gloom of ridiculous treasure

The light no longer shines for me

Merely glows where I cannot see

I stand here begging for tearless nights

Metaphoric Sky
Current mood: adventurous
Category: Writing and Poetry

Ocean sparkles with flecks of a fire orange sun

Growing darker and deeper in a moment it sets

Mangled in a tangle of wind and metaphoric sky

The same time-stopping day our eyes silently met

Through the dark alleyways and nighttime secrets

Only the streets lights and stars know the truth

I lie in wait for discovery to find me, all alone

In the hollar of fright in my dreams, I sleuth

Searching for the church I have lost my faith in

Under a bloody moon, of deceit and beseech

Carry a torch of things that haven't happened

Insatiably thirsty, beyond a soul sucking leech

Too many hard decisions, must be decided

Round up the spirits to show me the divine way

The razors edge has sliced me in many places

As you read my ink in blood on this very page

Chasing tinkerbell, my heart knows no bounds

Obtrusive in a fairlytale, I call my existence

Hear the silent bells that ring inside my head

Liberate your selfishness with my indifference

Call my name in a fit of rage, under surface

With my hand, I can make all your dreams real

Taste the magic I offer, in the vice of your mind

Nothing is absolute, truth is just what you feel

How?
Current mood: blessed
Category: Writing and Poetry

I remember that day

That day when you said "baby, it's going to be okay"

When you wrapped your arms around me

And I saw the ocean in your blue eyes

Telling me so… and it was true

At least for that instant, it really was

You held me, more than tight

But somehow I knew it wasn't going to be alright

Something in my gut, told me so

But that I better keep holding on

Because later was a mystery

And your love was like a rollercoaster

Up and down, in and out, upside down

And around I went, lost deep in you

It was never supposed to end like this

It was supposed to be forever

How did forever end up only being five years?

I haven't been the same since

Playing that broken record from that rollercoaster ride

Over and over in my head

And I was dead…for a while

I couldn't eat, sleep…even breathe

Without you

I cried with the wind... blows

Telling me to be thankful for loving at all

But they just tortured me into another emotional fall

Into the quicksand I fell

All I wanted to do was lie there and die

Every song had a piece of us in it

Some happy, but mostly sad

You weren't supposed to leave me so soon

And every star I see, I picture you looking

Down at me, through the floor of heaven

How am I supposed to live without your love?

Answer me!  I need to know how!

How am I supposed to do this alone?

"how damn it?" …I softly whisper

Sobbing in agony, clearing your headstone

Fool in Translation
Current mood: discontent
Category: Writing and Poetry

My cup~ it is empty

Where it used to overflow

Rain down like a dream

From the center of a rainbow

Clowns on clouds are laughing

Etching my foolish heart

With words of distorted lies

Left ignored to translate the art

Where do I go from here?

Fabricate a goal from thin air

Leave the ignorance that bleeds

Fall in love with a blind stare

Chew the phat of lies

Under a harvest moon smile

Hold the hand of a stranger

Bet he'll linger for a little while

Exuding raunchy indifference

Is sickening, to say the least

Tired of sipping an empty cup

From my heart that's been pieced

Smile, for the truth is out there

And it will certainly set you free

Let go of the plaguing pain

Open your eyes... and believe

Sleep Apnea’s Residue
Current mood: focused
Category: Writing and Poetry

Yesterday, I was cleaning the cobwebs

From the memories statued in my mind

The twist-n-shout of my checkered past

Shook hands with thoughts I can't find

An explosion ignited, my heart bled out

Into an oblivion of thoughts and songs

Took the hands of my tiny, broken soul

Meditating stupidity of actions, all wrong

Wanted out of confines imprisoned mind

Taste the sweet freedom of deafened eyes

Skip through the jungle turning a wide right

By the motor skills I lost when I sighed

Smiled brightly at my childhood fantasies

As I dove into an abyss of untamed desire

Invigorating emotion slapped my bare ass

Must admit, I enjoyed swimming in this mire

A violent shaking awoke my sleeping soul

To the reality known as my tattered existence

Washed the results of sleep apnea's residue

To begin another day in a world of indifference

Learn the Truth
Current mood: happy

Sometimes our minds make us believe

Whatever we seem to beg it to achieve

So badly that we forget to see the truth

Slapping us repeatedly like a swaying noose

Ah the truth, whose to say what it is or not

Is it really only so, when you get caught?

Running through the jungle alone is not fun

Surviving with skewed happiness, all done

Let your own "fight or flight", lead the way

Don't let me intrude, or make you stay

Gloria Gaynard said it the very best

I Will Survive... this fiery, sick test

So, I'm on my way and leaving my woes

To worry about what matters most

Adjectives
Current mood: animated
Category: Writing and Poetry

Vanished in a meadow

Shimmering in gold and green

Found a piece of myself there

Amongst the beautiful scene

Caught in the under toe

Of the mighty North shore

Swam in every direction

Couldn't breathe anymore

Tripped down the stairs

Of a dirty New York subway

Everyone told me not to move

"I love you" was all I could say

Dove from a high cliff

In the Jamaican town, Negril

Liberated, free, and alive

The only emotions I could feel

Pushed as hard as the Dr. said

Ripping and tearing my body apart

Screamed at the crowned head

Little girl born with a piece of my heart

Danced the moonlit night away

In Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville

Haven't felt completely spirited

Since the hours that night I killed

All my experiences in this life

Is a testament that I live

Make me who I am right now

Crafts all my life's adjectives

And the Sky Cried Today
Category: Writing and Poetry

My heart is a splintered mess

Of emotions undressed

Didn't know you cared less

And the sky cried today

Take care of the treasures I gave

Of love and spirit I engraved

Didn't know you were enslaved

And the sky cried today

Be good to those who love you

By heeding every word ensued

Didn't know you could be so crude

And the sky cried today

I gave you everything I had

Through witches and warlocks bad

Didn't know without me you'd be glad

And the sky cried today

Unawareness breeds indifference

Egocentricity is far from elegance

Didn't know I was insignificant

And the sky cried today

And the sky died today

DON’T BLINK
Category: Writing and Poetry

The clouds broken wings

Fell out of the sky

Thunder crashes boldly

Lightning taints my cries

… All in the blink of an eye

Cherish languished softly

Among the trees lies

Someplace in a distant time

The fairies all lay down to die

… All in the blink of an eye

Summer burns the earth

When beauty lightly sighs

Wrapped essence thinking

So many reasons why

… All in the blink of an eye

Everything

                          …is forever in the blink of an eye

                                                                  … Don't Blink
