I wake up everyday
To thoughts of fresh starts
And though some things
Weigh upon my mind
Today I will try to keep
my heart
Light
And give thanks to the sun
And the air
And my breath
And to that which
I already have in this
Moment
Tag: inspiration
goodbye love
It’s a game you play
With my heart
And it causes me great sadness
To the point that I am leaving
All this behind
I would rather spend a lifetime
Chasing dreams
Than another moment
Running after
Illusion
You are simply too much
For my heart to endure
mirrors don’t lie
There’s nothing more to be gained
By holding on
What was once forming
Now, like smoke, drifts in the air
And I would remain here, too,
Inhaling your divine incense-
sustaining thought and feeling-
But, that I know your truth…
Mirrors are never good liars
And I see your reflection
In my own minds eye;
Your smile brings pain to my heart
My uneasy mind now let’s you go
With the understanding that your
Soft words and smooth flow
Find other ears to softly caress
silent birds
A black bird lay in my path
Stiff and empty
And all I can hear is the song
Of change ringing in my ear
A man with long nails
And a pinned black bird in his hat
Divined for me… yet more
crossing energies
Birds speak to me now
From spirit guides… making me see
That this darkened doorway
Is but a portal to a bigger me
Resonance of change binds
My heart and mind
In an unyielding
Spiral of noiseless singing
And these silent birds have come
To tell me to hold on just a little more-
For maturity of thought
Will find my heart before long
unknown destiny
my body, a vessel, floating
alone
in the vast dark of the sea
and i wonder now
what will become of the broken
pieces of me
never in the darkness
have i dwelt so freely
and within that bleak freedom,
longing to find more
of me, I surrender
to the deep waves
with no breath left
inside my chest
i sink into the oblivion of my heart
to search out what it is
that ushers me
towards an unknown destiny
too dark to shine for you
i am sorry for the pain behind your eyes;
hidden by the lines forged once by smiles…
i am sorry for the weight upon your chest;
a place i used to lay my head…
i am sorry for the push and pull of confusion
that has dragged you this way and that…
i am sorry that i cannot be
what you long for, what you need, what you deserve,
my failure is only outshined by my despair.
i just keep asking… how can i hurt one who has been so loving?
i am sorry my heart lies here broken
….by those who came before you…
they say that the gold that fills the cracks
of broken vases only makes them that
much more valuable…
would that I could be your gold,
and fill your broken places
with light…
alas, i am too dark to shine for you…
Field of light
I am full of pain and anguish now
For that which I held close
Is gone from me
And that which held me close
Is leaving
The push and pull finally over-
I am left in the middle of the fray;
Alone, with nothing to guide me back
But myself, on my own,
And who’s to say i cannot fill my own space?
Yet, still lingering, hovering, below my emotions
I wait for some sign to guide me past
All this business on love…
And into some field of light again
For I am lonely and quite sad
what is this?
What is this hold upon my heart
that keeps me tied upon this throne
of the past?
What creates within me this desire
to remain steadfast
even in the face of logic?
What is it about you, dear one,
that locks my feet in place
refusing to move away from you?
I long to know your secrets, and what
you could possibly have to bind me
so to your spirit…
I will linger here, but a while longer,
in hopes that all will be revealed
and clarity show me the way.
If not for this ringing in my ear and
the longing in my heart
I would not understand a thing
i miss you
i miss you- your voice, your touch, your light
i miss the way you brush your hair out of your face
and your laugh…
i miss you- simply, because you
are no longer here with me
yet your essence- it lingers in my memories
i miss you- and will try to turn off these feelings
for fear that i would drown into them
and sink down into misery
missing is a game that i cannot win
nor should i long to try
i will let it go like smoke or wind….
