suddenly heaven is within reach

reach and fall

If you reach, you may fall
If you fall you may lose it all
I could prevail
Or I could be put out in the hail
I could be like them 
like the heroes
I will reach for the stars 
And I may very well fall
But destiny calls

Premium MemberA Writer's Reach

The pale blue lines on which I write 
stretch to infinity, 
and hint of a distant, misty line 
where heaven touches sea. 

The reach of sight, the eye's extreme, 
as far as the mind can go, 
is but a candle in the sun 
of all the heart may know. 

A writer's reach must far exceed

Premium MemberFulcrum of a Rose




Souls arrive on earth compelled to survive dramatic impacts.
Each child of spirit will eventually reach for reasons to be here.
Living finds the soul striving for intangible roots, tangibly real. 
Foundations are sought to lead, gift and uplift one’s true self.

Fertile roses grow blind to the forces aligned on their behalf.
Unconscious insistence diminishes man’s resistance to

Staying Out of Reach-The Siren’s Story

She was a fish out of water, only in the metaphorical sense, for the sea was her song and her home, where she played, where she laid her head, and where she was taught to bite with the most melodic twang, but she loved humanity, and her sisters hated her

Reach Down And Touch The Dirt

Reach Down and Touch the Dirt
How far will you take it?
How bad do you want it?
Work hard at all things you do.
With strong work ethics, just follow through.
Reach down and touch the dirt.
Be open minded and alert.
You have to suffer to grow.
Put in the work, be headstrong, let go.
Pick up the iron and never look

this will never reach you

sad, sad boy
you sit across from me
and I can't remember,
had we spoken before?
new clothes, favorite hair 
same boy
I can't help but stare
stupid boy
i hope it's my influence
look at me
I'm your solution 
I'm your solution

Premium MemberJust out of reach

i listen to your voice
but you're not here
and may as well be
lightyears out in space

tonight the moon
feels much more present
as its allure sways me
to a most bewitching beat

His legs would not reach to the ground.

Premium MemberREACH OUT

I reached out to shake your hand but you pushed it away
I asked you what was wrong but you had nothing to say

I reached out for a hug in a warm embrace but you pushed
me away and slapped my face

I reached out to help you to take away your hurt
But you just insulted me and
