Soul'd Out
Guess I'm soul searching she's on my mind with a heart that is hurting must have been blind I wander these streets where we walked together but places we'd meet are now stranger than ever I think of those days gone by and can't help but wonder why I'm tossing and turning time on my hands with a heart that is burning...

Unrequited Love, a Soliloquy
To love someone who no longer loves you is the cruelest trick played by the world. I didn’t know you wanted me that way, I thought you only cared for my body, so I found another who seemed to want a connection. I should’ve told you then how I love you so, I wish I...

Fulcrum of a Rose
They say the scent begins in bloom, But I have felt it in the fold– where petals hide, and shadows loom, not where the colour are bold. It lives between the bloom and  bruise, a hush the sunlight doesn't see. It stays with those who never choose, to shine, but still learn how to be.  I found it's centre,...

I stand here gazing at stars in the sky, Wondering what happens when I die? It’s harder to see with my own eye, The purpose of life as it passes by. First, I’ll consider the where, when, and why? Who or what it was, that caused my goodbye? What was important, whether girl or guy? A purposeful life, or is that a...

Searching
Born from the chaos that welcomed me with a closed fist Eyes open wide with the taste of anxiety upon my lips I tuck myself away deep into my mind Somewhere other than here will be just fine Is it safe to emerge from the depths of my own despair? Or should I dwell a little longer, and ponder, how...

Too much pain wrestles in my dark, forcing limps that stifle my spark. Trekking "the long and winding road," I seek You for a faith reload. Praising Your road paved with faith's seed, I will find where pain does recede. ...

There once was a sleek silvery sardine Who dreamed of marrying a svelte eel queen With his heart ever lurching, Swimming through seaweed searching In an olive oiled tin, he was last seen. ...

I searched endlessly for my dream. Impossible to find is what it seemed. Hoping one day I would find the light. That light came to me when you came in sight. I felt something special about you, and I was right. When I met you and got to know you I was done searching, because I found...

Inspired by Mati, a Stubborn, Beautiful, Black Angora When Mom sat me on the ground, oh, meow, what fun I found. Loved the out, but now I need in more, so I call and rub our door. Where's our stuff they carried out, I still smell familiars about? They just don't hear me yet, I'm sure there's no reason...

The Trip Back
It was a long way home I had wandered for many miles Searching for that pot of gold That’s said to be at the end Of every rainbow I saw a lot of rainbows That stretched across galaxies With no end in sight But no hint of a pot of gold Did I see I encountered a lot of well-polished stones And although there were Well worn...

Premium Member I Found Myself Searching
I found myself searching for you Through many men who just won't do, As they simply cannot compare to you, But truth is it is never them making me blue. Instead I decided I will follow through On my great awakening, to be true To my ability to show love and woo Every man willing to satisfy my feelings too. I found myself...

Shadowed Parts of Myself
I'm not sure when you left, but my guess is, it's been a process from the beginning. Maybe the moment you left heaven's presence you longed for its essence, and left unnoticed? Or was it when your freedom fell, taken from the grips of hell, and all it taught you to believe about yourself, and life? Or maybe when the one you felt could change...
