Premium Member Waves of Hope, Oceans of Despair
They're children of the sand, sand in an hourglass
Sands of time running out, running from their past
Desert winds howl, howl like hungry ghosts
Howling louder than bombs and tyrannical hosts

Little feet march, march across scorched earth
Marching...

Long Road
Softly moans the blowing wind
	crossing over bright glittering crystals
endless darkness lies black beneath
	swirling dancing blowing white

soft as feathers downy white
	soft drifts flowing softly slow
sliding smoothly across the way
	closing off the un-traveled way

twisting ribbon flowing down
	hard...

Behind the Sharp Turns
Whenever I pass by the mirror
I wish they could see beyond the 
Chemical reactions of optical 
Illusions, reversing all images
Back and forwards
Mazes through technical spins

Behind the Sharp Turns

There is something unexpected
Out of corners of corneas
Pupils...

Strong As a Hearts Resistance
Stone partitions 
stretching somewhere in the distance
borders beckon cross not here
as strong as a hearts resistance
though intentions are most sincere
cobweb covered disappointments
when trust like ancient ruins turn
Divided by protections wall
closing off and closing in
Defenses unlikely...

Apathy For the Apathetic
can't point your finger of blame at me if its broken right
so would you like a broken finger or rib?
can't die from the joke your not telling that is killing you
would you like a broken...

Too Dark the Night
Too dark the night its blackness slipping in
   closing off the light;
 shutting out the world
   its hustle and bustle busyness.
Too cold the winter its harsh white rapture
   blanketing...

From Rose to Rosewood
Pigtails sat tightly on her head
Curls poking through
And framing her face.
The bear kept her company,
Sat close by her head.
The dolls sat carefully placed
Drinking tea around the table.
Her name in blocks
Across the wall,
Not easily missed by...

Little Dark Age
She has flourished into a flower that has bled,
  Far along from a sprout who desired protection from the soil bed
Petals soft and bright deceives the eye,
Ahead a winter that shall let it die
Long...

Her Secret's Hard To Keep
Her tears stain the pillow 
As she lays down to sleep
Dying from within
Her secret’s hard to keep

Violated by one trusted
Betrayed by those she loves
Left alone to suffer
Only wanting to be loved

His hands as cold as...

To Those
To those who made me who I am
By hate or love you gave me strength
To those who knocked me down you taught
What's worth the fight is worth defeat
To those who gave a helping hand
Who didn't...

Peace
What others think of it
It doesn't care at all.
It's not the absence of thoughts
but the presence of mind
It's not the carefree attitude
Regardless, the caring nature
It is not the unconsciousness
but the consciousness
in the inner conscience
It doesn't...

Just Listen
JUST LISTEN



As I lay myself gently down,
I hear the water caressing the rocks, leaping, splashing.
I hear the hawk above me, cawing, screaming.
I hear the woodpecker knocking, tat, tat, tat.

The rain is closing off the world...

Mind Heart
my heart torn out and a thousand peices pass me by
another tattered moment in the scilent night...
though the calls keep coming im closing off my mind
a dreamy dream would simply passify this creeping notion
that i...

Meager Mind
Expressing truth is a gift, but is
often shadowed by corruption 

We see the world through filtered screens
that impair our judgement 
Of how she smiles, and how he laughs

Withered children grow from sickness
as their hearts slowly...

Dna
Life under a microscope dissected piece by piece

peering into cells with x-ray eyes and brain scans

of behavior set in DNA Strands spreading out like veins in disease

contagious in toxic virus attacking the system without supervision
