where do I turn
where do I run
you were the one..
the sun that lit me up
the fun that kept me high
all in one..
no cure for this malady
no antidote
you're buried deep within
as pure a love I've ever known..
twisting and turning
you own this heart
in the big unknown..
to know it in my bones
the unseen
this kind of love
is to be set free
in a time that was made
for you and me..
it’s anything I want it to be
a sweet perfect messy..
moments starting and ending to the different ways my mind is bending..
ink spilling freely
words filled with intense meaning
no one questioning or demeaning..
The wonder lies in the path of my journey
not the end itself..
home again..
where is it
when everything changes..
moments evaporate
loved ones following
dissipating into thin air
undoing my sure footing ..
can I take it back
rewind time
set my foot back behind..
is it real
can time stand still..
Or wishful dreaming
holding so tight to the seams
as it all seeps through the tears
of life as it wears on you..
let the wheels keep turning
while all i know is burning
setting new ground
where my heart can take root
and there I'll be found..
nothingness..
refuge from it all
the first sound of silence I've heard all day..
loud raging invisible sounds
banging round my heart to
my mind..
looking for ways to escape and unwind..
never certain what's real or a dream..
chaos - a life of its' own- is never quite what it seems..
what I seek can't be touched
won't be found going round and round..
it comes in whispers
when my heart settles down..
What I hear in the quiet calms down the riot..
grateful to walk through these moments
they're mine
time will do what time does as
i unwind...
eerily quiet
wasn't prepared for the sounds that dissipated
searching high and wide
for any familiarity
to keep me grounded
trying to remain true to myself..
what is truth ?
can it be found
when all that fills me are covered in lies ..
I will rise
not to be held down..
in this empty space I find myself
I hear my thoughts
I feel my emotions
the present moment never more clear
as I draw near to the silence I feared..
unexplainable
undeniable
existing
within a world of your own..
take my hand
hold it tight
together we’ll create a home..
so many moments
so many days
You’ve roamed all alone..
isn’t it strange
how it can change..
hearts connecting in the quiet
space can’t erase what one knows..
feelings pounding
against the chest
Slamming..
can you feel it
can you hear it
after all this time..
Or are you trapped in your mind
moments keeping you stuck..
I’ll take reason over choice
mistakes crumbling
losing their power
in the bewitching hour..
no promises to keep
wisdom keeping me on my feet..
tear-filled eyes
heart cries
hating goodbyes..
each tear willing
time to stop
slow down
rewind..
give me time in this fleeting space to untwine my heart and mind..
intense passionate
sorrow ensues..
but without goodbyes
one can’t savor the moment of new beginnings
the winnings in letting go..
the hope of the unknown
joy and sadness intertwined like two lovers with one mind..
teaching us the goodness of leaving it all behind..
Longing —
The echo of things to come..
Running to it
running from it
reverberating so loudly within
it’s become my sin..
make me or break me
my soul cries out..
cleanse me from the fight
That destroys my might..
Different shoes I’ve been walking
living miles blindly
winding this path
looking for green grass..
only to discover
the color is whatever I choose it to be..
can’t run from me..
We
won’t be lost in translation
blurring the line
beautiful ghost
never decline..
not quite reachable
yet teaching my soul
that lost doesn’t mean
one can’t be whole..
you are balm in my heart
teaching right can be wrong
and delight can be had in the sad..
no sound to tragedy
a numbing silence ensues..
no sound to joy
no such rules..
yet moments boxed away
come out to play
creating an explosion of the heart radiating from the inside out..
a beautiful destruction is on display
reconstructing what began
our beginnings..
everything is nothing
and nothing never ends
our story is forever
in the end - my mind wins..
