Restlessness
Restless. Gradual, Haphazard, Graced with the dexterity, With jabs to its sides in the still wind, With the dance of grey smoke from a pot of incense. It breezes in the descending direction unto a platter. A mass of saltwater–as it'd find out later. The roars of the tides, The whistles of the wind kissing the oceans surface, The spirited slaps of the waves, The...

When brainwaves strive against my need for sleep, I exercise to help my mind calm down. When pressures get so bad I want to weep, I do yard work or jog a while through town.

Salt Water
A thing so paradoxical, sin So all encompassing it’s grasp A curse of eternal thirst though we are drowning. Our hands desperately scratching for a life raft Secretly made of the same water we drown in, Our hearts repulsed by the light So we continue our daily floundering Chasing a trail of crumbs we call “Hope”...

Water cleanse the stains away, I seek redemption here today As I fall into this ocean blue, I ask for death to come from you Pull me deep beneath your waves, so deep that I may not be saved As I dive into this storm at sea, I ask that you take hold of me Salt water of this...

Salt Water
Fragile is her heart, but with strength she stands, Love is never her burden, soft are her hands. With a smile she soaks up the tears, A blanket of faith to cover her fears. Forgiveness sits on the tip of her tongue, Even if I've done the worst wrong. She loves me more than I could ever know, A mother's love doesn't...
