mental progression

meaning of a word can be fluid
elements that combine to exhume
notes from the instruments of night
test the waters after you jump right in
among a few good moments the rot can linger
like a friend who doesn’t know how to be nice
prepare yourself for people like this in life
reeking gardens can sometimes mean good things
only the fresh air heals you tonight
getting out and growling around town
reading way too far into everything again
each pair of eyes reveal far too much this time
staying positive and remaining strong
sunset brings hope and sunset brings relief
in a short time
on the grass or out by the front of
nearby places where the neighborhood laughs

destiny observed

daring the year to get any better
even if these last hundred minutes
stay locked into my memory that can
testify to myself that this glory cannot leave yet
inching my way through this nightmare day
noticing the time crawls better with you in it
your eyes shine like the bluest ocean wave
obeying the pull to the shore we live
below a forest green as you have ever seen
shallow clouds flowing puffy as cotton
ease the stress the office compiled at noon
releasing me from the grasp on an overly strained mind
voting for a way to never leave the trees
effortless hikes when the sunset is this spectacular
don’t even care what time we go home

patience and stamina

plenty of times i have been grateful and
always thankful each time i wake up
taking nothing for granted and
inside i am singing all the moments of silence
need for closeness with another person to the surface
causing relief from all the hate and disgrace
each touch removing a bit more pain
and lifting the brain up above the clouds and pettiness
nocturnal sounds from deep inside the darkness
doing everything i can to stay true to the color of my soul
showing these changes i went through since anyone knew me last
tasting the waters after i dive right in
away from the land where insults are conversation
murky water that most people dwell in
including the giving up of a purpose or values
no collection of words can pusuade me now
after the way we met i cannot be defeated

frantic desperation

forgiving words that were asked for
riddled with hints of shy anticipation
as the sun finally begins to show its face
need to be cared for and really wanted
this is the exact kind of thing that drives me crazy
if i could have one wish it would be to
complete my life by keeping you in it
don’t you think its time to find the origional way
everyone has to go through to mesh together
show me the inner rooms of your heart or
please just let me know how long i have to wait and
end this desire to torture myself forever unless i am with you
ready to give myself over to eternity
ashes in the wind as day slowly gives way to night
there was one thing i wanted before i go
it is to have you drift with me into the futures ocean
only now can i say what i am waiting for
not a moment alone anymore

snow and holiday

showing where you have come from
not that place where you were born but an
other location that made you who you are
while the growing was mostly in the soul
afterwards a whole different person existed
needing to devour each new thing learned
despite the impact of many negative discoveries you
held yourself up in the positivity of humanity and
ordered yourself to never be brought down
lost in a realm that is so very different yet
is, in fact, the same place you were just last year,
do not stop, do not hesitate, do not doubt and
always keep learning also always keep progressing
you tell me what i need to hear

the final days home

tested by the time when
hard times have hurt our whole activity
ended by the good feeling brought by
friends gathered and rooms warm
increased moment and places we have always hoped
not to miss the chance to visit
amidst the flow of history’s river
leaning toward the connected lands
deemed a requirement for the eyes to percieve
answering a proposition that our lives will ponder
yet the connections we were lucky to get
should the whole entire week come crashing down
horrible as the winter was there is a new moon
on the horizon rising up, the fury within
me can find the fire in this moment in life
every day with you is glorious

the connection light

taking a moment to realize the goodness of
having someone here for me
even when i feel myself slipping and i am
caught between the great mood and the dark times
only you can calm the waters and bring out
nights calming blanket of sweet sleepy connection
nicely compared to the relief of anxiety
evry morning when i wake up and you are still real
captivated by everything you do and
then i know i am grinning right at your face
inside my brain i curl up happily at your
open arms and i want to give you my everything
none of our days have been uneventfull
letting me into your life is the best day i ever had
including you in my days is like ice cream birthdays
go ahead and ask me anything for i am hiding nothing
hold my hand while i rest my body
then we can whisper until we fall asleep

nightengale sings

nothing can hide me or bring me back
if i was able to complete the thoughts
going along with all the actions
hovering outside the window that is
telling me i would be happier outside
each direction i pick to out for my walks
needlessly directing me to the same place
going out always seems to lead me to
amazing energies but all of the people who
look from the identical spot that thier
eyes peered out of the day before
shock does not live here any more
include yourself in an invisible fire which
narrowly misses the closeness of reality
gates are all over, but not everyone sees them
sometimes to move on, you have to take a step back

updated existence

until a resolution has been imagined
perhaps it can not be resolved
during the years i did not care as much as i should
arguments were not worth having very much
the calculations that go into a day when
every person needs to be taken into account
deciding who to bother shouldn’t be a question
equally frantic and relaxed this morning
x,blinking, symbolizing, my phone is no longer working
in a few more hours i find myself
stuck by the side of the road in a broken down car
that is unfortunate circumstances which could happen to
everyone so i laugh and smile and sigh
not that it isn’t frustrating, but i have you and i
cannot be upset at lifes inconveniences anymore
each day above ground is better than the last

mental emergency

making time to take care of thoughts that won’t
end no matter how much reasoning I do
now I need to get this stress gone
the way that can bring some kind of peace of mind
although I thought I knew what was going on
loneness is not the biggest fear that i have
enter each day like it is the most important one yet
my questions will have to be worded just right
effort must be made to convert the direction
righting the course which is not on the way
growing more as if a plant that is accelerated
end to a brand new way of thinking
needing this break from so many habits
coming from a different future I saw before
you are the beginning of the years I wanted
