I have something I wish to say
But drowned by the noise, my voice fades away
I have something I want to make known
But away with the wind, it's once again blown
I have something that's important to me
But nothing I do will get them to see
I have something I want people to hear
But lost in crowd, my words disappear
But drowned by the noise, my voice fades away
I have something I want to make known
But away with the wind, it's once again blown
I have something that's important to me
But nothing I do will get them to see
I have something I want people to hear
But lost in crowd, my words disappear
Literature
Dreams
What wonders the imagination can bring
With opened ear and untamed eye
Dreams that we shall toss and fling
And float about towards the sky
By luminous light of thought
Day and night will awaken newly
And become what you have sought
To find your most distant Thule
Never letting go of that which we cherish
The spirit of innocence and truth
Why without it, what would we but perish?
In the darkness of lost youth
Literature
Agoraphobic
He would often catch the coursers of a newly printed page
or lock upon the wingspan of departing poetry.
But once the years corroded and the pages crumbled,
fantasizing was no longer enough
Soon he found that these shallow fabrications had all the depth
of a black and white page.
Literature
Battle Cry
I write poetry to ghosts in my dreams
awakening with ink stained sheets
from nights I can't remember,
meaningless phantom words upon my flesh.
And this cigarette between my fingertips
taunts me,"Hey baby, heycatch me on fire
and I'll burn you away." I laugh, hollow
unafraid of flames & smoke & shadows.
I've felt it all before.
I'm washing away the ink with homemade
remedies. Like it never was;
Like I never was.
But there is love on my arms now
smirking and itching away at me.
I'll claw it out a hundred times over
because remembering you
that is worse than self-inflicted injury.
