HE PAUSES
He pauses two times every day around the first and the last light…
Once after his eyes open in the morning…and once before they close at night.
At night…a peaceful moment…where in his bed he lay…
to relive some of the memories he collected throughout the day.
And in the morning when he wakes up…
as his eyes becomes accustomed

P A U S E S
P A U S E S,
They'd say it's good.
How far? I'd wonder.
S T O P.
If you need,
Wonder, for how long.
P A U S E
If you must,
But Tarry the journey.
E N D
It's a name
They'd give.
All remains the same
Life like a game
That's all a name.
The ripples continues,
There's no end.
No stopping.
No pauses.
It's a construe.
We exist to feel

A Meaning For Each Day
A MEANING FOR EACH DAY
The long-distance run begins again
From its dawning burst upon
The route of each unique day —
Evolving, exerting, energizing, elating.
The far distances: a crossing from
Vague inspirations to verses, persisting
Like the birds that squawk at treetops,
Wondering how their cousins sweetly sing?
The deepest longings prayerfully
Reach up:
thought to motion,
With the blessed guidance

Passages ---- and -- Pauses
there are passages in life
gaps between jobs
between marriages
even between... deaths
hear the stillness
there are pauses in life
spaces between words
some spoken
others mute
a few...written...
feel the emotions

No Silence In the Pauses
Listen
Listen to my ugly words
as they scratch upon your eyes
Searching for the truth in my world of lies
Beauty springing tears from this false facade
Love hidden in the hearts
of the brokenhearted
Spitting thoughts from within
to ease the congestion
Sickly slick i take a trip
Trying to lie to cover future lies
Forensically analyse my evasive murder
and accuse the accusations
Your world

Pauses of Life Meditation
WE FLY OUT OF LIFE WITH TWO WINGS AND A PRAYER,
HOPING FOR SAFE JOURNEY AND DAYS FULL OF SUNSHINE
WE RUN, WE WALK, WE TALK, AND WE STRIVE TO ACHIEVE.
WHEN WE STOP, WHAT IS IT WE DO... TO BE? (B)
TAKE A PAUSE IN LIFE AND THINK OF HOW TO
