I am Worthy

No more will I be brought down
by someone elses words
I'll take my chin and raise it up
and stand without the cords
because I won't be chained up
and taken down like that
I'm better than the negative
I'll get past the regret
I know that I am worthy
of friends who trust in me
and ones that will stay by my side
and stick things out with me
I no longer will be the one
to dwell on misery
I have found a way to happiness
it has risen up in me
I wont let myself fall back
into my darkest mind
I'll pass through all my trials
and keep an open mind
because all things work out
in their own due time
and all my trials are blessings
they just change with time
they always make me stronger
they give me strength to give
and so I'll keep on living
cause this life is mine to live
I wouldn't want things any
other way than this
I feel I am wrapped up
in my own sweet cloud of bliss

The Door

The world will continue to rotate tomorrow as it did today
but nothing is ever the same.
  No moment is identical to any other
and no person is either.
  Knowing this makes goodbyes difficult-
because no matter how hard people try to stay in touch,
we can never recreate the circumstances that drew us together.
  We can never relive fond memories;
  and yet saying goodbye acts like a door-
  the people can choose to leave and never reopen the door,
or they can revisit the door and create new memories together.
  Whatever the case may be
we never forget those we loved
and those who loved us back will always meet us at the door again someday

Channeling Foreign Emotions

Channeling foreign emotions;

my frequency flows through your veins.

Blood type A now I'm tuning.

This spirit of mine is singing to you-

convincing your cells to recieve my sounds,

my screams and whispers and soft cries-

those things fleeing normal perception.

You hear me when I'm not speaking,

listening to my heart inside you

around you and without you.

Intertwined without a single touch.

NonSimplicity

Passion of weeds

or love like a rose?

What do we sow

and whoever knows?

Typical symbols

of storybooks told-

chasing a rainbow,

looking for gold.

Greener pastures,

brighter days-

yonder where the sun doth play.

Maybe what we want to see

isn't always there,

hidden in a secret garden

along with other dreams ditched without care.

A castle for one

A bridge for another.

A fighting soldier

and star crossed lovers,

a distant friend

or a terrible foe-

where our life takes us

nobody knows.

Coupled with love

doubled with hate

Whichever we choose

is another man's fate.

None the Same

I came across a man one day

And it seemed he had a lot to say

But it was only spoken with his eyes

For his voice was compromised

Through catching glance

He conveyed by chance

A love he had not gained

Looking back it was such a shame

A marvelous fellow

Although rather mellow

His smile overwhelmed one’s heart

Only then till he fell apart

For when sorrow took place

It appeared on his face

And his demeanor was as grey as the rain

But he loved her all the same

The man with telling eyes

Never could find a deflector or disguise

As the love he could never achieve

Became his swollen grief

Everyone could tell

The pain he could not quell

It ate him up inside

This love he never denied

But one he could not attain

For she loved him none the same

Passerby

A statue stood in front of me

not quite the image I thought to see

for when I looked upon it's face

there was a mirrored image in it's place

But looking upon this molded stone

I realized it was all alone

except for I looking on I

yet I seemed to be just a passerby

Hardly recognizing what I saw

it seems I stood there in great awe

not because it was nearly artistic perfection

but due to the lack of knowing my own reflection

Open Book

Looking through a different lens

than most people do

the message that I comprehend

is something meant for you

and if only you would take a look

you'd view my thoughts quite clearly

because I'm like an open book

and it only takes a query

to make me disclose what I see

it only takes time to behold it...
Oh what you could see!
And it all begins with me.
