It has been happening for some time now.
The screams have been filling my head.
Maybe they are from something normal,
Or something soon to be dead.
Maybe they are just from here,
My mind is playing tricks on me,
The screams are non-existent.
There is nothing I cant see.
I look into the distance,
But the fog hinders my sight.
I see a shadow in the dark
Moving closer in the night.
I know to run, but nothing moves
I sink into the floor.
I find myself closer with
The man at my front door.
I know I shouldnt answer,
I dare not find the source
Of all the screaming in the distance
Right on my front porch.
I am not a fearful person,
But I now cower and weep.
I wonder what will happen
If I dare to fall asleep.
I drift towards the door,
Not thinking whats ahead.
I open the door slowly
Filled with fright and dread.
I see a figure standing there,
Its covered with the night.
It raises a hand towards my face,
As I reach towards the light.
The light floods upon the figure,
It reveals the face of doom,
The brightness makes my eyes blur up,
They adjust to the light in the room.
I look upon the face with fear,
It looks at me with a smile.
I feel a sharp stab in my stomach,
I lay screaming for a while.
I find the source of all my fears
Im carried to a stack.
I find the other screams in the distance,
As my life fades into black.

Love So Strong

Its known for long your presence near,
Its brought me from afar.
Has struck me from within mine ear,
Your voice, my heart is char.
For you, I know, I cant possess,
Thy face, away is turned,
My mind, collapsed beneath the stress.
This love so strong was earned.

Through your smile, I lived the day,
I longed to hold you near.
You see me, though you turn away,
Pretending Im not here.
My best, for you to notice me,
You know now how I feel,
You come to me a let me see,
This love so strong is real.

Midnight Sun

Upon the sands I stand alone
I gaze upon the light
It seems to be the midnight sun
That shows the way at night.
It shines upon my path so clear
Ill see before Im done
Where my path will end up near
The shining midnight sun.

Burning People

The people here are burning.
They burn through day and night.
This burning does not scorch or burn.
It does not give off light.
They burn with passion and desire,
They burn with love and hate,
This burning can be good or bad,
Increasing at an incredible rate.
They cant contain the fire.
The flames erupt from within.
They let the flames spread around
They let their feelings win.
They express themselves in many ways.
Through poetry and song.
These are the words of their hearts and souls
They will show how theyve felt all along.

Light Pieces

The sky is filled with them.
They shine the whole night long.
The tiny little light pieces
Shine right where they belong.
They flicker in the night sky air.
The shapes they make are filled with awe.
They make me wish I flew.
I want to fly around them there
This is when I knew.
I must find a way to be with them.
To be up in the air.
But now I know this can not be
Ill live down here not there.

Hidden Voices

The voices overflow,
They appear and are often lost.
They are known as inspiration,
They come at a small cost.
If you hear one, listen well.
It will tell all you need to know.
The voices help avoid the block
That hinders your word flow.
If they are missed, which they often are
They continue to another ear.
The inspiration flows from those,
Who tend to listen near.
The voices always have a job
To help the inner voice provide
The words needed to express,
The imagination hidden inside.

River of Thoughts

I love to go to the River of Thoughts.
This river cools when ideas cant win.
I often swim in this river of dreams,
When my mind is worn to thin.
This river revives the imagination,
Giving inspiration to those at an end.
This river gives birth to a new generation,
Expressing themselves to their fellow friend.
The words from that water will flow like the river
Never ending til all swimmers are gone.
I depart from the river for now til whenever,
For now with this river, Im done.

Wildfire

The fire that burns inside,
The fire tears and chars.
The fires flame destroys the self
The fire spreads afar.
It crosses fields like wildfire
Making the hills glow.
The fire from with me
Has nowhere else to go.

The Block

Everything that's done
It's done against the main
You try to knock it down
Despite all of the pain
Your efforts are the best
No one can stop your rage
Except this thing that hinders you
That keeps you in your cage
Your mind is running wild
Your body only saves
A little against this massive block
Against which your only making waves
A little push
A giant shove
The strength is coming
From the love
You have for freedom
From this mass
This block by which
You cannot pass
Try as you might
You cannot nudge
For this large object
Will not budge
You try and try
Then you give in
This block of progress
You have let win

Jade wings

The creature flies upon the sky
Up in the sea of air
It flies upon its wings of jade
This sight is very rare
The glowing wings of jade shine down
They flow like waves of the sea
The shining jewel from eye to eye
This creature it flies free
It flies about without a care
No thought for those it can see
This beauty is hidden from others
For it can only be seen by me.

Sea of Skies

I look down into the clouds
I see a ripple from the breeze
The sky it shines into my face
In the chilling wind I freeze
The reflection is around me
It is shed upon my eyes
As I swim around and look
Down at the sea of skies

Sea of Fire

Sitting on the sandy shore
The sun is fading in the sky
The colors spread across the clouds
Then the fire starts to fly
It spreads across the rolling waves
It tears apart the air
The fire burns the water
Its colors often rare
The time crawls as the sun sets
The fire seems to die
I get up and leave this place
But the memory will not lie.

Soul Fire

What to say
I do not know
I search for words
There is no flow
I think, I strain
To fill the hole
To ease the pain
Of my burning soul
It needs a way to speak
It tries but there are none
My mind and soul alike
They have become one
They fight together
The win together
They battle with
And against eachother
Until they come to an end
They found why there is a hole
Words express the mind
But emotions express the soul.

Changing Times

 

Things I knew are all but gone

They change as does the tide

These things I see will soon pass by

Remembering them where I hide

I wish they would, as I sit here

In my cave of a selfless child

That they would pause and stay a while

So I could watch them for a while

And yet they pass without a word

Changing in the flowing wind

I know not one who has stayed still

Letting me watch from here within

I turn away from the door

I know nothing is that sublime

That they would stay and never change

Amidst the changing times.
