Broken Legs

purposefully induced

dreaming state

just to see

reasoning

where there is none

these are the things that keep us there

in my mind

it seems at times
I'm not alone
in slumber
when you reach my home
while in a cage
encased in stone

but breathe and be
alive in me
I would love the company

TO PROSPER

No reason for it all
Just a feeling
it should be

there

but when it’s not
the wonders spread
the how comes
we don’t share

the reason why I felt that way
the reason you are you
the reason you are next to me
when I should be there too

the reason my eyes drift at night
and drift when I don’t dream

the reason I can stop and stare
when you look right at me
the reasons life is not at all
what it has always seemed
the reason I can’t die today
and what this life all means
the reason for my life

has all but shattered blind
the eyes that saw it
tearing up
with red
they flow with wine
eyes that when u see them they are everything
divine

eyes that belong just to you
because your souls entwined

they see no reason to it all
they know the truth as well
they know that life was over
and they know they may as well
be desolated
isolated
pairs that solve a crime
thievery
not so heinous
that he would give his prime

I wished this song….. it would come true

The music in my ears is filled with weeping and with grief
The tune it carries follows with the longing for reprieve
Ever hopeful bulging heart
Contracts with every beat
The heat it carries dwindles off
Burning icy feet
I wish that I was standing there
Winter in my eyes
I wish the summer
Could die off
And I’d be filled with life
I have so many wishes
But no fountain to comprise
A fortune fit
All for the king
Willingly deprived
The poor they know
They know the song
Wishing wells they drink
His magic fades
Memories of days
That he no longer sees
Winter stretches farther
In a world where I am blind
My senses have no use for me
They cast my will aside
For I am just a useless thing
Just wishing for a key
Unlock the beating
Living thing
That has its grasp on me
Enclosed in hand
A chest of sand
It slid all through my teeth
But I’d forever hold it there
If he would just see me.

The Words Could Not Be Pinned~When I Died Yesterday

the colors
the magnificence
of all my eyes could see
the way my heart
it thudded strong
the beauty that was me

it all was new
meant something more
than what life meant to me

the brilliance
of the souless sky
it shined a light in me
I knew I had a gift of trails
in an uncharted sea
uncharted no one's territory
just my thoughts and me
my sea of life
that no one knew
but just my love and me

the words could not be pinned
when my life ended yesterday
and reconstructed a new me

If You Knew Me

throbbing ribs
misplaced your shame
weakened bones
but none are lame

shaking walks
and lengthened lives
so take the metal
while I lie

evidenced
in lesser tales
you can't hide
behind my veil

mistakes are shown
you cover's blown
now I can finally be my own

for with this paint
all on my hands
this once red wall
still couldn't stand

Such is Life

a twist a turn
a new skill
learned
my flesh
knots up
with pain

i wrench it firm
and you in turn
wish you'd remain the same

too bad for life
say C'est la vie
yes you should speak it now
the end of vie
is coming now
your soul will not remain

Acquaintances

complications
never shake the hold
they live inside
and tear the fold
thought to be
all mapped and planned

but life held up
just couldn't stand
the blows of death
the blows of love
incessant tricks
it boils their blood
they love the heat
so will ensue
and barter trade
and we buy you
oblivious to the trader's will

my slave steps farther
till he is killed
a golden coin
and meat is served
no life long work
but one day learned

to never trust
the smiles of friends

for we die slow
by hand of kin
