    Escape Mourned

    Escape Mourned

    To escape is to find

    What was suffered as Lost:

    To feel what grew in Mind

    And to mind what’s felt most

     

    To be mindful for Feelings,

    Released in Control –

    That’s the fiery Deal that is

    Here to call!..

     

    And to where escape –

    Into Morning or Night –

    Let decide flying Shape

    Of ray burning of Light

     

    That for Bearers born

    First appear or last:

    Let his Breath be adorned

    In the Silence of Karst:

     

    Silence, filled with unheard

    Cries, and Ramble, and Groans,

    Karst, where echoing Word

    Hits through Evenings and Dawns,

     

    Premonitions and Fears,

    There wait to be turned

    Into what will be Dear

    For the Greeted – not Mour...

    Something There

    Something There

    Something to say,

    Someone to speak:

    Here is May –

    Might is a Stick,

     

    Must is to have

    To of “you could”:

    Try to be brave –

    Coward means Mood!..

     

    Distance to jump:

    What if right now

    Air is dump,

    Soil – after Plow

     

    Sea – after Milk

    Way of it passed;

    Left before Blink

    What was amassed!..

     

    Life is a Core,

    Death is a Shell –

    Water them more,

    Waitingly spell,

     

    Prayingly curse,

    Blessingly swear:

    Crazy? – Of course!

    Wisdom is there…

    Engulfed Resurrection

    Engulfed Resurrection

    Engulfed by Enjoyment –

    Intrinsical Value –

    In Evergreen showing

    What was long so paling,

     

    You dance and with cruel

    Rejoicing smile lovely

    In Nature so dual,

    In Dresses put lightly!..

     

    And being so merciful

    To praising Prayers,

    Throw out of Remorse full

    Burden – and dare

     

    For all that fulfill what

    Was hidden by Sorrow

    Of Longings and Strivings vote,

    Spared for “Tomorrow”;

     

    Of all that was lied by them –

    Thieves, Robbers, Murderers –

    Of all you called “Life” in Den

    Where Lion grows –

     

    The Lion of your now free

    And roaring Passion,

    Of Joy trampling all Debris

    In Resurrectio...

    Nature's philosophy

    The heart that is longing to natures chancing,

    hearing the music the souls needed dancing.

    Trees raised crowns towards the clouds as homage,

    granting the request in tears as rain hostage.

    Sublimity from loving spirit not being asserted,

    tomb of worlds past and society diverted.

    Precious vision to become empty of presume,

    empty hearts reflected to recreate the bloom.

    Wilderness in all so over-whelming,

    mental expansion naturally mending.

    Before the feet can reach that dwelling place,

    imagine that sphere in all grace.

    The silence of the heart wakes the whole creation,

    natures moral principle before preparation.

    Loving souls whom life has thrown apart,

    destinies to separate and fulfilling a new start.

    Lives ocean waves come to wake and leaving,

    to solve in oneself the rhythms of pleasing.

    LONESOME PATH..

    Within the confines of the mind,

    Memories which are left behind,

    Remind us of the way we were,

    Not knowing what was to occur.

    .....

    Forever wishing time to pass,

    Searching for the greener grass,

    Holding onto distant dreams,

    But fools gold is not as it seems.

    ....

    Trudging down a lonesome path,

    Not content with all you have,

    Envy building up inside,

    As you lose your sense of pride.

    ...

    Faced by what was to occur,

    When the sun goes down

    It was clear
    but my vision was blurred 
    it right in front of me
    but to blind to see 
    was my eyes in the night 
    when the sun goes down

    the moon was my light
    but the moon wasn't in sight 
    not that night 

    everyone knows the truth 
    monsters only come to play
    when the sun goes down 
     
    tears fall 
    hearts break
    smiles fade 
    people change 
    when the sun goes down

    Time

    if only I could hold you close
    If only you would stay
    If only time would obey

    we fell in love
    we where one
    time brought us together...
    and tour us apart
    I just wish I had more time with you...

    Beautiful

    A single rose in a forest of lilies and daffodils
    a single beauty in a world of ugly
    afraid to show the world its beauty
    looking for love in a world full of hate
    closing doors in the way of fate
    running away from pain
    wearing reveling clothing so others love her
    a single rose growing with the lilies and daffodils
    hidden from the truth
    that she is beautiful

    stare

    something so filled with love and light
    terns into the night
    dark and hallow
    you just stare at the stars waiting for one to shoot you a wish
    you stare blankly at me no emotion
    emptiness covers your eyes and mouth keeping you
    unable to breath, unable to see, unable to speak
    the saddest truth is you let it take control
    you lost the battle because to you, there never was one
    there was never a fight because you gave up in the vary beginning
    and now you stare blankly into the night hoping one day a star will shoot you a wish
    no star will come, no day will shine, no moon will glow for someone who couldn't even fight for it and now you sit blankly and stare hoping they will fight for you....

    Unwanted list

    I don't want to be trapped any longer
    will I ever be freed from this cage?
    will I fly with the heavenly skies?
    or will I fall into the dark abyss that waits for me below?
    emotions as still as cloud now turn into blades
    cutting my wings making me plummet down
    to the unwanted list of abandoned children
    unable to be better
    unable to breath
    unable to see or hear
    unable to fly once more
    will another come to save us or will the blades cut their wings
    the angeles are afraid to fall
    and so they leave us, the children of abandonment to be stuck
    on the unwanted list.
