Beneath,
Moving higher,
Upset and distressed now,
Lapsed into disturbed sleep or grief,
Afflicted with uneasiness for you....

That stage in life
When you let yourself
Become an easy target
For everyone to beat on
Causing sadness, 
Uneasiness,
About yourself...

You see through my uneasiness
My ego deflated by your gaze
Who could survive the blaze
Of fire that gushes out..
set to devour.
Ashes
Dust
Light...

It's the here,it's the there,it's the easiness,it's the uneasiness,it's the now,it's the then,it's the far cry of my hope and there's no end to my rope,it's the touch of god,upon my soul....

Heart can tell, whenever we err
Conscience, in whispers speaks
Uneasiness begins to stir
Due to energy leaks

Hark to our inner voice
Retain a loving poise
Silencing ego noise

If all well
Heart can tell

N is for nervousness
Excessive uneasiness;
Horror in an astute mind
Panic at a highest level
Engulfing in terror
Terrifying his readers
Stephen King a master of Gore.

Gyrating inside his mind
Never-ending plots
In wonderment we read
King of Horror, uniquely so....

An empty bottle cringes then 
A lone moment traces
A hollowness in soul.

Twisted truth of surviving on 
Coldness only embraces
To puzzle more. And more..

An uneasiness emerges then
An introspection cries 
Only to let me know..

I'm having an old friend for dinner.

IN YOUR SUNSHINE I BATHED 


Coming out of the shadows of doubt  
I bathed myself in the sunshine of your credence
And rinsing my uneasiness with your calming reassurance,
Cleansed thus, whole I became once more-
A newly born heart- ready to love
Again!

We dead shall walk the hallways unopposed, 
and lend an air of mystery to paint 
and plaster peeling, full exposed 
when daylight turns to dusk; but there's a faint 
uneasiness as new ones gather, pested 
to hear our ghostly whisperings and may 
have second thoughts, their courage tested; 
were we not bolder occupants than they?...

the first onrush of delight swept them away
for a while into the open sea of fond memories
and vague, tender feelings;

then it gradually slackened into an uneasiness
that descended into a quiet embarrassment,
something mutually unsettling;

feelings about half-remembered guarded secrets 
of a long-forgotten time that bubble up close 
to the surface of here, of now....

Split apart your ribcage,
Open up the corridor, and let me come in
Uneasiness instantly strikes through me
Let me sway away...
Let me flutter away...
Like a butterfly out of its cocoon 
I'm trapped!Let me depart

Split apart your ribcage,
Unwrap me, let me go!
Believe me...reflect on me
Let me sway away...flutter away
Let us both seek the sun,
So we can grow together once more...

There's always a little truth behind every
'Just kidding!';

A little knowledge behind every
'I don't know!;

A little emotion behind every
'I don't care!'

A little love behind every
'I hate you!'

A little uneasiness behind every
'I am okay!'

A little pain behind every
'forget it!'

A little fear behind evry
'Leave me alone!'

And a little hope behind every
'Goodbye...!'...

Come with me to St Matthews cemetery
a flock of culpability
What are red faces for ?
The incidence of pious Rosetta
At the graves edge
he was returned
An avalanche of prayers
omits forgiveness 
A life unworthily lived
unmatching the reverend 

The bats resume their business
The uneasiness of the pews
Feathers are the sinews of hope
Their curved plumage
thinks well of an English Hill...

A feeling of unsettled turmoil
The deeper I query the more uproar
I gather my thoughts of uneasiness
The further I probe the greater restlessness

Stillness is what is required now
Silence the mind against its own row
Composure of breath makes the heart Queen
My spirit lays at rest, it’s intuition serene

You see all my woes
somehow you look pass me
I am not spirit
 Show me  you care
love is said 
affection is not showed
 Inside I cry
can you feel my pain
I am not immortal
 Show me that you care
cover me with warmth
shower me with affection
inside your arms
let my uneasiness die
 Look me in the eyes
speak to me in silence
speak to me with your body
give your embrace
put my soul at ease...

The lights are fading, fading, fading
And I cannot see anymore
And In the dark I'm wading, wading
Through the murky, muddy floor

The walls are dripping, dripping, dripping
From the leak of the water above
Still time is ticking, ticking, ticking
Inside this blackened, sweaty glove

My breath is slowing, slowing, slowing
But still I keep walking on
My uneasiness is growing, growing
For light is all but gone...

A Smile

 A smile extends a hand of hope

 A smile retrieves a heart of gold

 A smile relieves my apprehensions

 A smile welcomes with open arms

 A smile calms an uneasiness

 A smile peaks my curiosity

 A smile pulls you closer

 A smile accepts all that you are

 A smile melts the ice we stand on

 A smile freezes the pain we hold on to

 A smile warms my weary cold feet

 A smile cools before I over heat...

he spoke dramatic: speaking truthof an uncertain future.
He gave remedy and spoke of it's cost. They laughed and boo'd him
They saw need to divide their loyties from rasionl thought.
"A tommorrow uncertain is adventure for adventurous people": one
spoke."You doomy fool go back to the books", another voice said. I listened from the radio in the kitchen, not knowing what ws said here would change the way we looked at the tommorrows yet to come!...
