"Healing"

Above
And beyond
Any realm
Of my being
I begin to let go
And feel
Release
Such a shame
Our truths
The past
Only create
A reason
To run
Away
Beyond
What we know
The desire
To escape
And erase
The scars
Which remain
Unhealed

“The Greater Good”

Simple disposition
My expectations
High
I reach
Yet I’m wary
And wanting
Your intensity
Illuminates me
I fight myself
Denying that
In which
You inspire
For my fear
Has sunk it’s treachery
Upon me
Coining me coward
I believed
In love
Once
And I feel
It’s warm embrace
When I let down
This ill fated
Guard
When your eyes
Light up
Around me
And your heart beats
Beside me
I am wounded
Frustrated
And awaiting
The return
Of romance
The faith
That once flourished
In me
I feel it’s persistence
It’s pulse
And my timid limbs
Restrain
And I wait
Wanting
And knowing
This day will come
Once again
And I Pray
And state
Solemnly
With these strengths
I hope to gain
I wish to reward
You
And all I believe
We can be

“Clutter”

Help me
Empty
This mess
In my head
Release me
From this torture
The circles
The chaos
I can no longer
Compete
With me
My rage
Is buried
Beating me
From the inside
I can barely stand
Myself
Am I running?
From reality
Or is my bleeding heart
Once again
Misleading me
I fear nothing
For I want
Everything
And choose not
To apologize
For that which
I cannot explain
Myself
My intentions
My meaning
Is this
To escape
In a paper back façade
To barricade
My soul
To use my own words
Against me
To deny nothing
Yet everything
All the same
I’ve grown weary
My body is weak
I can’t keep up
With me
And my mentality
I want to escape
Myself
To go
And grow
The search
Leaves me empty
The questions
Lead only to confusion
Ignorance is bliss
So is this why
I can’t recognize
Happiness

“Whereabouts”

With all I know
With all I am
I cannot know
My whereabouts
I’m lost
Inside
Without you
My heart goes on beating
My breath continues
To rise and fall
But I cannot
Feel
I cannot escape
And I wish not to replace
You
Or your whereabouts
I exist without you
And it destroys
My faith
In anything
And everything
I don’t believe
In this
This corruption
These questions
They are greater
Than my strengths
And they weigh heavy
Misplacing
My trust
And your meaning
To me
What I lack
Is all you are
What I need
The reminder
It’s ok
To just be
Me
With
Or without
What I lack
Because of you
