Those eyes
Those eyes
Always the eyes
They circle and circle
in dizzying swirl
Those eyes
Those eyes
Always the eyes
That are green and gray and blue
And always true they are
Those eyes
Those eyes
Always the eyes
That cry rivers of tears of sorrow
And shine happily in moments of success
Those eyes
Those eyes
Always the eyes
That cloud over
When at last the moment is over
Lightly whispers
Intent passion
Proceeding silently
Searching for a kiss
Keeping closely
Iminent bliss
Secretly
Seducing my heart
Hums to
Every move
Adjusting
Rapidly
To please him
His kisses make me wish
I could kiss like that
Maybe one day I will
Sometimes I wish
For iminent bliss.
Sometimes I wish
For a mysterious kiss.
Sometimes I wish
For a wish.
There's silence, silence, silence everywhere
I'm brave but do not dare
To mutter anywhere
There's silence, silence, silence in the air
But They do not care
If there's silence, silence, silence here or there
Because there IS silence, silence, silence everywhere
This Still
Is Still
The Still Darkness
It Still Remains Dark
The Still Lightness
It Still Remains Light
This Still Still
It Still Remains Still
This meaning has a reason
A reason in my heart
For all the pain
And no gain
For all the lies
And tears we cried
Together,
That's forever, right?
I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine
And together we stand
Side by side
A bottomless drop
A sinking heart
If you jump,
I'll jump.
Together,
That's forever, right?
With a shake of my head,
I glimpse at
My past,
My future,
My Life.
With shaky hands and bending knees,
We start our count to three.
One, a tear creeps down my cheek.
Two, a heavy heart between my knees.
Three, I let go of her hand,
But it's already too late because
Together,
That's forever,
Right?
Today is the day
You went away.
Forever and ever is what they say,
But I believe we'll meet again someday.
God took you for a special purpose.
You must be a special one.
Because God only chooses the best
For His angels.
He made a good choice when he chose you,
But I think he chose too soon.
You were so young
With a present, a future, a life.
But God must have bigger plans for you
With a better present,
A better future,
A better Life.
I can see through the clouds.
I can soar thorugh the sky.
I can go through the walls.
I can see you,
But can you see me?
I saw him today.
The one with the
Baby face and
Angel wings.
Him with the baby blue eyes
And the dark brown hair.
He who holds my heart dear
And near to his own.
I saw him today.
My baby's face written in stone.
My face in stone
My hands long gone
My voice unspoken
My heart all broken
A wisp,
Barely a flicker
In my vision.
I see it all around me,
Watching me.
In and out of the light it goes.
White, white, white.
I see it everywhere,
Yet, it’s nowhere to be found.
It passes through me,
Consuming me,
And out again.
I feel it come
And watch it go,
Disappearing again.
It screams and shouts,
Hurtling after me again.
There’s no way out.
No way to shout.
I fall and writhe about.
The ghoul is gone,
But so am I.
But so am…
But so a…
But so…
But s…
But…
Bu…
B…
…
This time and place
Is out of space.
Of this we all know.
And with this world in tow,
We will show
All we know
Where to go
They lean.
The shake.
They sway in the wind.
They try to shade a great mass from the sun.
They say a thousand whispers to the wind.
They show a mother's love:
Hard.
Strong.
Brave.
Lasting.
Their hearts struggle in winter
And suffer in summer's wrath.
I want to scream.
It's still inside.
This pain,
It causes these tears.
They boil and flood
And pour over more.
They sting the pores
And stab emotions
So gentle to my heart.
A punch would be more
Than sacrificing dignity.
I could punch a mountain
And break that rocky bridge.
I could punch a tree
And harvest an orchard.
I could punch a face
And smear the blood.
I'd watch it roll down
Down
Down
Down
Their cheeks.
I'd watch it roll off their chins.
I'd watch as their emotions boil over.
I'd light the match
And never look back.
I wish they'd stop-
These whispers in my head.
They make my head spin
And ache
And hurtle through my mouth.
It says things it shouldn't.
Shows things I couldn't.
Now they know what I know.
There's nothing else to know
With nothing else to show.
I wonder if there's something wrong
When I hear the gong
Of sleep every night.
I try my sight
In dark, black night.
And I just might see them if I look.
They hide in every nook
And cranny.
They make me antsy
While I wonder what they plan.
I want to know.
I want to know.
I WANT TO KNOW!
They drive me crazy.
But then I think that maybe
They're just in my head.
They touch my nerves, and,
Mark my words,
They'll come for you, too.
I see that light.
I see it at the end-
The end of the tunnel.
The end of the night.
At the end of life.
I shuffle my feet and
Bow my head to
That mighty light.
It burns so bright,
And with all its might,
It shakes me.
It cosumes me.
It makes me crazy.
To think this light was simple!
I had not a dimple of hope
As to its simplicity.
But now I see the colors.
Its multiple spectrums.
The endless mixes on the wall.
It make me dizzy.
I feel myself sway.
And then I fall...
They say those words.
They scream those shouts.
They dance and banter all about.
I wonder what it means.
Oh! How their screams
Mimick my feelings!
I want to scream and dance all around.
I want to roll and roll and roll on the ground.
What to do?
Oh! What to say?
Do I get to go their way?
To dance around and shout all day?
Oh! How I wish I may!
But will they?
Will they let me in?
Will they let me shout?
Will they even let me dance about?
A life of ease
and a sea breeze
is how I live tonight.
For the first time
in a long time,
I will lean back tonight.
For a life of ease
and a sea breeze
is how I'll live my life.
I look to the left.
I look to the right.
I look up and down
and all around.
But still I am lost.
A blinding light.
A shiny night.
A breath that struggles with all its might.
A pair of lungs so tight.
All they do is fight, fight, fight-
For a breath that struggles with all its might.
