The Fictional Whole

Sifting through demands
answers linger
conclusions unattained

Souls wander
tossing around ideals
paths seemingly unclear

Burdened by dreams
drawn into their haze
reality exists nearby

Extinction

The ceiling is non existent

Allowing access

Inviting us in

Lying awake

Haunted by the question

Fear forbids an answer

Life unfulfilled

Predictable and certain

Unable to evolve

 

Distraction

Sunlight caressed the day
for a moment we found love
distracted by desire
not focused on words
knowing the waves would come...

Many Times

I tell myself I know better
yet it seems my heart does not hear
cause it leads me into temptation
that I know I cannot bear

My decisions aren't always based on fact
damn feelings seem to lead me
I ask myself when will I learn
feelings are deceiving!!

Many times I try to shake
that little voice inside
that tells me I must follow my heart
and my head is along for the ride

Damn you little voice, I say
your words I no longer hear
Starting now my head's in the lead
with my heart bringing up the REAR!!!!

:D

When I Look

WHEN I LOOK

at the trees
and the sky
hear the wind
so alive
who am i
to erase all the pain
that it sees
and it feels
does it hear
all the sounds
all around
does it know who believes
im so scared
theres no peace
common ground
will it cease
who will know
no one left
to control all the money
no more pride
its the fog in the eye
of our soul

Who am I?

I am what I see in the mirror
I am what makes me smile
I am what drives me to succeed
I am what's inside of me

I will not be what someone desires
I will not be what they see
I will not be driven by worry and guilt
I will not refuse to be me

I will however compromise
some selfish part of me
that focuses on all my wants
instead of just my needs

I know that when it happens
I may not think it's me
but I know it's time to realize
life is WE not ME

:D

Back to Basics

Where did we all go?
Mentally, that is

Somewhere we got lost
Somehow we've forgotten

Life takes over
Everyday life

Rememeber your childhood
Remember your children

What will they think of us?
our values disappeared

Somewhere we got lost...

Collective Souls

Voices of nature surround me
friends I have lost
or left behind?

Family that is living
but not always there?

Souls I confide in
that hear my thoughts
leading me down a new path

Is it my conscious?
Am I insane?

I just need someone to hear me...

We TrUsT

can you keep my secret?
do you promise not to laugh?
until I do

will you judge me if I tell you?
will you listen?
if I do

they told
they laughed
as I did

in us we trust
in others...
we hope to trust

Beyond Ourselves

So many times in life
things seem out of reach
We didn't try hard enough?
We just don't see...

We are Beyond Ourselves

Exhausted
Energy wasted on want
not necessary for life
Power we cannot control...

We are Beyond Ourselves

So many times in life
the path seems clear
And still we question
Are the answers...

Beyond Ourselves?
