Path Unwalked

Been everywhere, but no where at all
Headed down a path that's not there
To a place inside my head
Trying to find myself
Only to lose everything I had
I lost my sanity
The hand that held my heart
I lost my mind on that rocky road
Lost control of emotions
I never knew were there
Through my double vision
I see things I want to see
The outstretched hand I run to hold
The heart I yearn to keep
I see my imagination run astray
And my insanity keeping me alive
These things are not real
They never will be true
Headed down a path, but motionless I stand
Look around to see where I've gone
Been everywhere, but no where at all

Last Time Forever

A mother’s loving look at her newborn child,
Never able to relive that moment again.
For it’s the last time forever.

Walking into kindergarten for the first time,
Feeling so alone and afraid, don’t fear
For it’s the last time forever.

Kneeling in prayer as you are born again,
Living as a sinner no longer,
For it’s the last time forever.

Walking across stage on graduation night,
Nervous because it’s your last few steps as a “child”,
For it’s the last time forever.

Praying to God to help you jump the hurdles,
Seeing prayers being answered, never doubt
For it’s NOT the last time forever.

Road-Block

What to do 
What to say
Jump in my car
I’ll run away
From all the confusion
All the craziness
Yet all the insanity
Leave, away
Tank’s nearing “E”
Out of money
A growl deep in my belly
Reminds me again
I pull to the roadside
Cars pass without
A glance
The caution lights
Throw an eerie glow
No music, no ears
Only silence
I ran
But my thoughts, my past
Still followed from behind
Dancing in my car
Around my head 
They utter words, phrases
My scream fills the air
I look at my hands
See what I’m holding
The clay discolors my skin
I mold, then destroy
It’s temporary existence
How I wish my life
Were this easy
I could make it however
Then erase it
And start again
But my life’s not that pliable
There’s no erasing and redoing
My thoughts bounce off my head
Step out of my car
Slam the door
On my fears
And walk
Once again away
From it all

Relief

My mouth is bound      
By unspoken words	
Refusal to allow	 
Emotions to be	 
Revealed
The danger of
My silence
Of unspoken words
Teases 
Flirts
With occasional
Mental escape
Endurance
Insurance
These lucid
Lies of truth
Fingerprint my 
Frustrated heart
Alone, yet
Not apart
From
Unspoken words
From 
Transparent relief

Hidden Home

My stuff is packed
I’m off to my home
Home-a place I’ve never known
I’m an aimless wanderer
Headed no place in particular
For no place bears my name
I’m a late night creeper
Constellation keeper
The world is my playground 
My imagination is my motivation
The stars are my inspiration
I have nowhere to go
Yet I feel not alone
No need to run or hide
From feelings I’ve pushed aside
I am but a tireless walker
Off to see the wonders of nature
And what the world has to offer
Cares-not in my possession 
Fears aren’t there either
The faces I meet have no names
I only pass in conversation
I have only one destination
Yet it remains mysterious 
Hiding behind my emotionless masque
I seek for a place
Where I can hide
A place of my own
Somewhere to call home

Runner

Empty mind
Full of no thoughts
Blank canvas
Fill to a desired heart
A runner tired
of endless passages
Take a sit
Stay a few
Paint
Tired runner
on the blank
New ideas
A change
Just calm your soul
Runner
Not impossible
Free your thoughts
They won’t be your
Agony, despair
Once released
Only nightmares
No more
Memories
Runner
Tired memories
Scars
No more pain
Decorate 
Canvas so blank

Thought

My head is spinning fast,
as I am tumbling down.
Troubles are coming fast,
as I try to choke them down.
Suffocate on the distortion.
In my mind's eye, misery abides.
In my charred, beatless heart,
your words emphasize lost hope.
My fear and your faith...
undeniable friendship...
my solitaire release.

Dance

The kaleidoscope effect
of summer's weathered haze
A kiss from unremembered love
hangs loosely overhead
Faces shadowed by greed
morph into enlightened hope
Emphatic
Karmatic
Bittersweet bliss
Hippie twirl
Patchouli scent
Overloading all senses
Holding hands
Embracing summer's greedless
heart

Delirious Ecstacy

Spontaneous Attraction of Erotic Mystery
Champagne and Wine Create an Orgasmic Emotion
The Yellow Flames from the Candle
Caress the Spacious Dark
Two Souls Bewitched by Lust and Desire
Hot and Bare- They Quiver in Union
Red Blood Kisses the Tranquil Rose
Love is Hell's Illumination

Unbreakable

“I love the way you smile,
but hate the way you leave”
Tripping with a full heart
The words kept tumbling
Fighting with my heart
A half-emptied spirit
I found myself
Perhaps it was only
I who knew
I left
Those unforgettable words
Repeatedly remembering them
“I won’t leave one day”
I meant that
Didn’t know the possibility 
The truthfulness 
In both our words
In my web,
Finally I captured 
My desire
No intention of releasing
I didn’t want to leave
but I did
Not again
My web longer is
Fragile
As I longer am
“I love the way you smile,
I love the way you are”
