On the threshold of yet another
This something, not so distant…
Blurried visions, looking forward,
Wish this world were more persistent.
And the night sky, struck with
Lightning-like storms of stars,
Of hail, of haze,
Just lies there
Looking out.
Ignores the blues and clouds of daze…
Awaken from your slumber,
But stay here in your sleep.
Believe me when I tell you that
Your dreams have fallen deep.
Caress my mind, engulf it
With your empty open stare
Leave me wondering
While you’re hovering
In the darkened wintry air.
Secrets
Held tight, held close
Whisper silence.
Not a word…
And yet, glinting with excitement
Are your eyes
So undeterred.
Tell me,
Sky of darkness
Why do you shine so bright?
For even in your bleakest moods
I see your inner light…
Fails to understand
That this night outshines the day
Calls my thinking backwards
As do others.
Let me say…
I know not common reason.
My ways are all my own.
I speak in words hypnotic,
Inspired by worlds unknown.
This second sings for hours,
Humming slowly in my mind
And all the while, three thousand
Lifetimes flash before my eyes…
Calm. Seemingly quiet.
Like the night.
So undisturbed.
I’ll lead you by the hand this time
If you take your place upstairs.
With the stars, with the nights,
With the music.
Anywhere…

poetry night mystery future new year no rules

Music pounding
Heartbeat sounding
i don’t wanna stop.

Here you found me
Arms around the
curves you wanna cop.

Feeling frenzied
Rushes send me
sailing over edge.

Tasting, touching
Not too much, he
needs to be misled.

Nevermind the
Games this time but
don’t leave here caught up.

When we’re done it’s
All in fun let’s
leave this here. enough.

crazy fun mystery done haha living life poetic

mmm. something tells me this won’t be easy…

My heart feels visionary.
What i see - u cannot find.
The Future exists slowly,
Though He pays me no mind.

but Secrets (kept) unspoken
and Passions (gone) unheard
are the Truths left here, a’broken
and the Lyrics sung half-slurred.

Exhausting affections
and treated ever kind;
Reflecting my deflections
but the spirits still they bind.

fluidity contagious.
(Naturally & True)
thinking it degrades us -
if conscience strikes on thru…

Flirting with Disaster.
and still also with Fate -
Clinging to QuickFaster…
but really wanting Wait.

Oceanic supernovas:
glistening with charm -
Seem to panic, deep within, yet
quickly they disarm.

Delirium and Ecstasy
are really quite a pair!

Now Fading…Gone
is all my thought
With you just standing
there.

mystery fun exciting poetry love it!

Confined to the cold, murky depths of remembrance.
Memories in my mind seem to be my only hindrance.
And the vibrance is gone from your eyes
Now, I see,
So my consciousness deletes you.
Yet my sub-ness continues…
Through the venues of the past
Burned in my eyes
As the salty water seeps down
Flooding my lungs,
Making it harder to breathe
As the skies become foggy and
There’s no way to leave
Since the exits are blocked,
And all the escapes are locked,
Away in a moment
That began yesterday-forever-ago
And there’s no going back because
Hi-s-tory is written in stone that
Cannot be broken
And the magic words are syllables
That cannot be spoken
Anymore.

And what’s a girl to do?
When the swamp pulls you under
Cause your heart’s full of quicksand
That sucks you inside yourself
And forces you to do
Some much needed soul-searching.
As you’re trapped within
Your own feelings and thoughts
And it’s a vacuum of time
That won’t let you go forward

Rewind then…

Play the record in reverse.
Hear the hidden messages
That you failed to recognize
Your own voice speaking
The first time around,
Or the second,
Or third.
So often our vision becomes
So blurred
That we don’t realize
We’ve been locked outside
Until we find ourselves,
Walking in the darkness.
Searching for the answers
To the questions
That run through the doors
To your mind.
But your eyes are glued shut.
Fortunately, blankness is
Nothing new to the blind.
Yet not those of eyesight,
But rather of mind.
And the currents of deterrents
Have altered me this time.

Follow the ink path -
To the ends of the page.
The blank white in between
Has the makings of my stage.
Don’t tell me what to write!
Or I’ll go into a rage.
Just leave me be
Here in this dark
And I’ll unlock this cage.

Take this permanent marker
And draw out a new world.
Create new eyes.
Make this mess,
Into abstract art.
Scratch out all the things
You don’t wish to remember.
Beauty’s in the eyes of the beholder.
Leave the others unassuming.
Turn this cold cruel world
Into the fantasy island
Everyone thought it was.
Then superglue these pages shut
And put them away forever.
Bury them at the bottom of
The world that you used to know.

Now, GET OUT!
You were holding the key
Upside down, all along.
Your Eyes Know.

But…
Shut your eyes and you’ll find the way
Push past the darkness and see the light
The new world
Has opened its eyes
For the first time
Today…
