Falling Away
I want to fall away… but I held on I want to hold on… yet I fell away Feelings sway to belong to begone I wanted tomorrow from a yesterday We invented time Does it mean it’ll never end? Timeless to find Lifetimes to never know when I would wish for something I never knew Yet never can we understand beyond Living lives exhausted to...

Premium Member The Falling Out
The Falling Out I find the ceiling fan quite interesting – a whirling meditation; -- blades whiz! – air cooling unseen yet felt apparently all affecting not overtly visible how one’s heart reacts to currents oblivious to detached others -- when we had our falling out a great storm rocked worlds no mention by the local meteorologist nor cosmologist seismologist or an especial priest -- What’s one more or...

Premium Member In the abyss of silence, where thoughts are born like falling stars
In the abyss of silence, where thoughts are born like falling stars, We let ourselves be carried by the invisible currents of unspoken dreams, Searching among the shadows of time for a meaning that never arrives, On untrodden paths where eternity weaves its webs. In the cosmic dance of light and darkness, we find ourselves lost, Each step is a...

Off The Map
I took the road less traveled to hear if a falling tree with no one around (aside from yours truly) does make a sound but lost my way veered far astray and for the life of me couldn't see the forest for the trees but if I could it would feel so good not a bump on a log nor lump on a stump as then I'd be...

Falling
Sadness fell. And also puzzle pieces. And also things and trinkets. And also rocks that seem to think. If something fell from outer space… It would fall straight into my orbit. A space rock. Would thank me for catching it, then die suddenly. I don’t think anyone or anything could circle me. They dipped away. New...

Emotions
A muted echo in the bone, A world I cannot call my own. The breath I take a heavy toll, A restless sprit, losing soul. Not darkness craved Nor fading light. Just weary limbs, That cannot fight. The endless climb, The endless fall. I yearn for nothing, Least of all. This constant thrum,...

Falling Leaves, Fading Chapters
I watched a leaf release its breath, A golden sigh upon the air. It tumbled softly into death, A quiet dance without despair. The wind, a gentle funeral song, Caressed it with a lover’s grace. It drifted, weightless, swept along, No bitterness upon its face. I thought of all I’ve had to leave, The hands, the homes, the hollow years. I thought of how we...

Falling In the River Inn
Is Simbach Austrian? Is Braunau German? Buda’s bumpy, Pest is flatter. The Danube does it best. Is history a palimpsest? (Think Durer, think Blatter). And spare me the sermon. I forget the rest. Does any of it really matter? ...

Smoke and honey
you trace my constellations you put stars in my eyes you whisper sweet nothings which ended up being my demise the sweet taste of honey you leave on my tongue numbs the pain of the nicotine in my burning lungs you say the lace of my garments traces my bones but all i see is a girl way out of tone...

Premium Member Under the dome of nights shining like a sea of falling stars
Under the dome of nights shining like a sea of falling stars, The fruits of summer pour out their fragrant burden in a waltz of dreams, The aroma of encounters with you, my love, like an elixir of hidden gods, Intoxicates my senses and carries me on wings of time and longing. Your body, a sanctuary of summer, sculpted...

Falling suns
You’d think it’d be pretty, To see a falling sun, Yet here in the city, It seems much less fun. There’s nowhere to hide, From the heat and the fire, No oceans to find, Only jobs looking to hire. Yet the pay is atrocious, And everyone is depressed, The manager has halitosis, And there’s civil...

Premium Member Nightmare of falling
Eye's closed fast asleep in a nightmare I am breathing deep Decending spinning never hitting the ground I am trying to Scream but I'm making no sound. Voices that taunt me they come from my past I can't see their faces as I am Falling to fast I reach out for something to help stop my fall I grab...

Premium Member Falling Into The Darkness
It seems my life is spiraling Spinning so far out of control I feel as though I'm falling Deeper and deeper into a hole All around me is this darkness The drowns out all the hope So why am I looking for a way That I may be able to cope I'm lost and alone...
