A Spine Within A Heart

A spine within a heart

My heart aches within
Something pushing and poking in 
Poking out
Knowing out 
Trapped in

Happiness is within trying to seep out 
Through the little cracks of grey, it seems
Gold elixir fading away 
Into the grey clouds, we know today
Pouring with pins and needles
That just pins you and kneads you
Intoa paste that washes away 
To come back
Better grown and better known
Better thoughts and better knots
New things this time around
A spine 
A spine within my heart 
Better prongs to use
And a lot of power to abuse 
I thought it came better 
Yet so it came back worse
Worse than the grey clouds and the muddy paste
Where do I go from here on out
A spine within me 
I know the pain I can endure 
The pain it could cause
But yet 
I stay doing what I've done before 
Will the spine get sharper until it burdens too much within myself
Or does death come upon me before the end
A Spine within a Heart

Love is a Rose

Love is a Rose

Love is many things but the thing you want

most.

Love is a Puppet
Love is a child
Love is a Phase
Love is in
	   finite
Love is a shape 
Love is a Rose

A rose that take time to grow
Time to opens its petals
Petals that shine in sunlight
Shining like a ruby underneath a flashlight
Lighitng it’s deep details not seen due to its extravagant petals
Petals that deteriorate 

Love is deterioration 

Love is a construct by you and I 
Me and You
Love is a rose
A rose that makes you smile
A smile that makes me feel loved
Love is a rose?
A rose with spines throughout its body
A love with challenges among ourselves
A rose in which you have to see it die
Or live.
Love is a rose 
A rose in which you have to take care of
You only receive so little roses
So treat it like a rose.

Love is a Rose
A Rose is Love
Love is a Rose

Ode to Chameleon

Ode to Chameleon 

You are many people in one 
That disguises himself but still is himself 
You hide beneath the tree because you know danger
Yet you are danger to others
Many skins in one but you portray only one
Green and naive but out comes red when you need to hunt 
Out come blue when you need to chase
Out comes yellow or orange or brown when you go to hide
Why hide chameleon 
You have to power to be someone else 
Someone loud
Someone that shows their true colors
Someone that has a name for himself 
You get to be someone 
But there you are 
Frightened by what's to come
Shaking from what's out there
Afraid you might lose it all, so you change 
You change to better yourself 
A new appearance, Same person
Same thinking, Same hunting
Same hiding, Same pain
But there you are 
Many people in one 
But still is himself

The Key is no Key

The key to happiness is to stop looking for such key
Cause no such key unlocks the happiness you seek
Your “key” is to shuteye for a key 
Make your key to your lock
To expect is to dream
And to dream is to expect
Setting up standards you don't need nor deserve
Because to expect less is to want less
To want less you receive more

I don't know

I don’t know 

I don’t know
I keep thinking and thinking
Thoughts revolting
Emulsifying
Into one
With questions left to ponder on  one
With more than one answer
But yet I can't find the key to them all
Which one should it be
The less aching one? 
 I don't know
Because wouldn't that be my answer to these questions? 
My comfort? My ease? My solution? 
My calmness? My question left to answer?
 
I don’t know
Should the answer be those that discomfort me and leave me thinking if it was the right choice?
The key fits
But not within me, so what is the answer I'm looking for?
An answer that just doesn't comfort me but is the solution to all my problems
I am the only one with answers to these problems, my problems, but yet not one fits.
The sea of thoughts has yet to reach its limit but yet does it have one? 
 I don't know 
Is there even an answer to these thoughts filled with questions, worries, and aching in my heart and head
 I don't know
Should that be it
, I don't know
I
Dont 
Know

No Reality to Echo From

No Reality to Echo From

To live is to echo a reality 
In which there is no reality to echo from
Because reality as we know it isn't here, nor anywhere
It's always moving
It's always echoing
It’s always shifting and filtering within itself
It's always relative to oneself
To itself 
So what does the echo…echo?
The lives of one another? The memories?
It's the stories, the legends, the anecdotes
the laughter, cries, pain, pleasure, sadness, and happiness, shared among us 
That is the echo, that our Reality
The reality with no reality
The echoes that are relative to us as people that also echo in the echo
Bouncing like waves from reality walls
Walls that keep us going 
Echoes in our reality
Reality in our echoes in which there is 
No reality to echo from.
