Doomed

I thought time apart was what we needed.
But I can see now that’s what you wanted.
Trying to talk is like trying to hold water in the palm of your hand,
Always a losing battle.
 
Its all you and no me.
While that’s how it always seemed.
My head is beginning to compete,
With my heart’s denial,
 
We are two stubborn heads.
The lightening and thunder of a storm,
You grab my attention and I grumble,
Just waiting on the storm to pass.
 
At least for a brief moment
Wasn’t there a happier time?
When we were unstoppable.
You made my heart go a flutter.
 
So what went wrong?
Was it my rose colored glasses?
Wanting something so bad,
It was doomed from first glance.
 
No.
It was us.
So take your time. 
I have spent all mine.

Nightmare

You disappear,
You run away,
But you say your okay.
 
To us,
Your mother, father, friends,
We have lost
you.
 
We try and convince each other,
That there was nothing we could do,
While putting on a brave face,
While not believing any of the words.
 
Surely there was something we could do.
Listen more. Ask more questions.
Anything at all,
Even predicting the future.
 
You lost yourself,
But it was our job,
to get you back to the real you.
To avoid this nightmare.
 
But this nightmare we must face.
We can’t change the past, all we can do is hope,
That when you find yourself,
You will come back to us.

Bliss

Early morning,

Image

everyone is sleeping

and there’s just you.

No one to bother you, interrupt your thoughts,

Or remind you of the present.

When you can just think or not think.

When you can dream or fantasize.

Time to think of your life, friends, or family.

Escape into a book, a movie, or just the silence.

My time. Bliss.

I Crave The Me That You See

Me.
I crave the me that you see.
I have lost sight of my own eyes.
Disbelief has made my reflection compromised.
As if my head has been disconnected.
My heart, my brain, infected.

 

I feel like an absentee.
I crave the me that you see.
So much potential you say
Do I believe you or fade away?
How much of me am thee?
Like tasting fruit from a poisonous tree.

 

I try to give the third degree
I crave the me that you see
Me is turning into you.
A lost soul with no point of view,
A vision of what you craved
This is the path that you paved.

 

But I will be an escapee
A mirror I will come across
My poetry is like my sign of the cross.
A reflection that my mind can recognize
I will not need the sight of my eyes.
To crave the me that I read.

When the Wall Breaks

When my shirt hit the floor,

The feeling of hate was no more.

This was just what I was looking for.

A time to forget, a time to remember.

Your lips are on mine, I feel myself tremble.

Just close my eyes and live in the moment,

To act before we lose our momentum.

I don’t love, I don’t hate.

What you are is fate.

Giving me a moment,

To not torment,

But giving me fulfillment.

Heart’s Destruction

My destruction

Washing over me with every notion

Every touch and feeling

Leaves me reeling

How can it be?

That you have this effect on me.

We are not what each other needs.

I try and fight to be free.

But you pull me back

My mind under attack

With a single kiss

You’re hard to not miss

We are volatile

Making our attempts futile

The definition of crazy

Doing something over and over again till we are hazy

When I see the light

It doesn’t seem right

An attraction so deep

 so hard to keep

I guess with love

There is so much more than the above.

Living Fear

Fear

What the human race is never short of.

Emotion that is consistent

Among races, ages and time.

What makes it thrive

Through so many lives?

Bodies riddled with

Fast paced hearts,

And Sweaty palms.

Automatically choosing to give into the feeling

That swallows us so easily.

Are we to believe that this has to be?

You only live once

Can only be if we truly see

What fear has to be to be free.

We preach about taking charge

And letting be.

But we can only be if we are not

Constantly fleeing.

But if fear is the way to a new beginning

Trusting that our fleeing can be deceiving

That it’s our unconscious way of leading

To the life we should be living.

Then maybe our fearing is relieving.

Disbelief: When there is nothing else to say

With every passing year

I take a deep breath

In with the knowledge that nothing has changed

And Out with the disbelief.

Love is Beginning

A girl with a crush

Feeling the heart rush

Conversations so hush

They make her flush

She tells her thoughts ‘shush!’

Their hands brush

She wants to gush

His smile makes her blush.

Do you think he has a crush?

Glorious Sun

Under the glorious sun

try and find the fun

With so little a stake

It’s not hard to partake

Feel the heat on your skin

It’s not hard to pin

Everything is so alive

Under the big blue sky

Find some water to splash

Go out with a bash

Find some children that laugh

Climb a tree high as a giraffe

When the sun is out shining

Don’t leave yourself pining

For the night will come calling

The sun will start falling.
