Premium Member Breakout

I have a yearning
To break out of confinement
The tortured inside
The painful layers of fiery hate
Breakout of prison, be freed

Premium Member The Give-Ups of Life

Anxiousness cause a breakout in hiccups,
When sentences sound like dainty teacups,
I cough them out, like troopers,
Catch audience jaws, droopers,
Hard look made all of them, only shut up.

Bookshelf Breakout

The ancient cracking bookcase stuttered
Books trembled upon the shelves,
Then scattering across the rug bound floor
Where they took up new residence.

Those left in the bookshelf
started to rock back and forth
hoping to join the colonials on the floor.

Premium Member Frosted Freedom

Jonquils, whispering in icy shadows,
Argue with January’s chill
Needling her about her coldness.
Upstart prisoners plotting a breakout
Always alert to a break in her façade
Resist complacency’s weakness
Yearn to mimic the sun’s majesty.

Fearless

Behold the light
Bespoke the truth 
Then there's nothing in the world
That won't gonna be right. 
Its time to breakout, time to be free, 
To challenge the world as we see. 
Then neither fire nor ice 
Will be the biggest concern 
Of your life. 
Walking on the path, set right, 
Fearless, the one you will be tonight.

The Trouble With Poets

If by accident, they occasionally
come near to any kind of truth
they tend to breakout in hives,
or shake uncontrollably.

We shouldn’t expect them to be truthful,
it’s asking too much.
Would we demand a dog
cook its own dinner,
or a pickpocket play a glockenspiel
while lifting a wallet?

Mostly and quite contrarily,
we condemn the author
for having lied
a whole lot better
than we ever could have.

Beneath the Folds

Beneath the folds within the brains
Of some of us exist remains
Of early traumas, tucked away
And if we’re lucky, there they’ll stay.

Yet if we aren’t, they’ll sneak through
And possibly provide a clue
To why some triggers make us snap
As if we’ve stumbled on a trap.

That knowledge, though, won’t be enough
To call that bottled genie’s bluff
For once he’s gone, it’s time to deal
With what his breakout does reveal.

Breathe Again

How many give themselves for love.

Only to find themselves controlled and suffocated

Told what to wear and how to think

Treated invisibly

This is no kind of love at all

Love is something to be shared with all

If you feel as if you're being oppressed

Then breakaway

Then breakout

Then take care of your own needs

Then take care of your own love

Spread your wings and soar on clouds

Of freedom and start to breath again.

Premium Member The Sheltering - Ifl

Owl eyes break as dimming light worms about, Hollow clap surrenders a sparked ribboning, Escapees breakout from their misty cells, Wakes of earthen prints puddling, Harbored ills bade sanctuary, A glassy millpond beholds the begotten, Abrupt warming tempts the absence, Stirred tea sweetly idling, An archer colorfully tools the realm, Directives wondering, Vibrant life answering, A stranger to loneliness, ...I felt like being alive.

Premium Member CRY HOLY

In the land of the Devil’s Vineyard
The cry becomes a silence
Through the tears of revelation
The need for Holy in desperation
In the wilderness of conviction
The fall down on the knees
Eyes of Heaven’s skies
Imprisoned in the Devil’s lair
Shackled in chains
The need for a breakout
The cry holy echoes
Chains break
The heart shouts holy
Cries on praising joy
The release from the Devil’s Donegan
Holy, Holy, Holy
Victory through the cry out.

Premium Member A Bands Backbone

Arbitrary baseline of creativity. 

Believe in the beats that are felt,
ask a lyric to see where it goes. 
Nearby is that heart on a sleeve,
describe what is dying inside; 
say it with all the courage you can. 

Bang it out let it heal your pain
allow for a release to come.
Captivate yourself,
keep calm if tears start to fall.
Best what you’ve created before,
okay it’s hard but always worth it. 
Never bend find the breakout,
eat the hungry audience up.
