Editor's Note: We Do Not Recommend It
there are so many thoughts within one mind.
some lost others forgotten, begin bleeding out as I write.
Shed tears while missing the sun, all while gazing at the stars burning bright
reminiscent of the garden where my heart still resides
take me back to ground zero. beginning the circle of life.
Wishing to a well of living water,
as reconstruction continues within my mind .
water rushing downstream, river running as much as I.
Was sent a key and a mirror to illuminate what my eyes can't hide.
This never ending shift in the revolving door of emotions and morality.
leaves me without breath somehow still breathing.
cut open is my flesh, as rogue thoughts crash like waves on the shore.
restless is my mind while eyes lock in a steady haze.
the dryness in the air causes blinking eyes to wonder.
how most lose their sight, not many stop to ponder.
to live faceless in a blinding world.
Hearing the pain in anothers song- we must all somehow be related.
Having poured out all of one self
questions remain
was it ever love or always lust.
voicing my reality becoming like a temperature too hot to touch.
unable to unsee what has become fragile,
while I became careless
Snickers across the room holding as much weight as the finger food left sat upon each plate.
another disruption, not clear in instruction.
wilting while alive living somehow dead
abra-cadavers a magicians box left unattended.
the editor's sticky note writes "we do not recommend it"
word of advice you might want to resend it.
resend as in once more, in case the message lost?
or resending as undoing words spoken in fear of another loss
Terrible person with good intentions.
Forever flawed intermixing with a hopeless hallelujah.
Prayers to the Lord for he knows my heart.
He's seen how it ends for it was through Him it starts.
