One More Time

g
rasping all that floats around
dancing in the prickly prongs

shattered pieces slipping by
slightly muffled desperate sighes

silence ripping through my soul
captures all i wish to know

yielding gently to the sound
pulling me to higher ground

stealing moments from the sky
i hang on for one more ride

Escapade


Strolling through the shadows

Running from my past

Jumping over troubles

Chasing silent screams

Forging through diversity

Walking past the signs

Falling into outstretched arms

Waking to a dream

The Guide


A light dawned and awoke hope inside
The parched desert of my soul

I followed it through the loosely
Tangled curtains in my filtered mind

Distorted visions appeared in
The reflections of light, leading
me astray, temporarily.

Then I saw, emerging from
The gloomy darkness I had become,
The luminary, again, shining as a beacon

I now focus on it like a faithful lover,
Letting the clarity of it's truth
Guide me to my liberation

The Drenching


Slowly subtly gently

steadily drizzling

dripping dropping

on my head

and at

my feet

growing stronger

plinking plunking

falling harder

soaking through

hiding covering

layers dampening

freezing chilling

toes fingers spirits

Starlightwhisper's poetry

Shaken


Take the veil from my eyes

Wake my longing help it rise

Make the starry heavens shine

Break the bars that hold my sighes

Quake the feelings that I hide

Shake my world and paint my skies

Focus

wistful glances mournful sighs
chasing unrequiting knights
musing convoluted scenes
groping long-forgotten schemes
i seek out knowledge from above
reflect on unexpected love
enlightenment so hard to find
infiltrates my fitful night
searching out the course to take
wondering if the keys were made
a soothing comfort washes down
and drops my soul onto the ground
there in the corridor of time
it is revealed to my mind
the power to control my life
is not an obscure, hidden prize
illumination shining down
has cleared the foggy, muddled pond
the dreams i harbor can come true
if i stay focused on this view

Dust

Love is like a bomb
exploding inside your body
burning your soul into flames
and turning your skin into
a furnace inside which the fire
transforms your heart into ashes
and you are left hollow and shelled
as your remains float to the
ground and once again
become dust

sorrows song


haunting songs in harmony

drifting through the air

find their way into my fears

and fill my soul with grief

I long for pardon from remorse

and unfulfilled desires

my patience growing thinner

as my heart begins to bleed

I cleanse my wounds and carry on

though burdens weigh me down

I will not let these mournful tunes

take me as sorrow's slave
