to the love of cold

Posted on November 1, 2015 by jaybeasley2

The many hours of ache
Of the morning being too soon
Top of the roof to the bottom of your shoes
Happy to have friends gather
Ending the harvest month on a good song
Like the edge of a copper moon
Off a portch that can Only be ours
Very funny moments and wine the color Of blood
Every day and Night Better
Only these days last long enough
Final games that’ show no remorse
Can we just lay here awhile
On my chest you recline
Like a cat purring
Doing what every Sunday consists of

slow erosion of balance

Posted on October 31, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Sorrow for the month that passed
Lifted up for the few moments at last
Omitted in the welcome of a new destination
Wanted by many but accomplished by few
Equal to this last connected piece of future planning
Right thought but very little therein
Occasionally thinking about an urgent matter but
Still acting like it was only important sometimes
Intense feelings driving the car of immediate considerations
Opposite to the need of relaxing future stress
Never taking into account the correcting of mistakes
Only aware of others and not yourself in this life
From now until the fortieth year when the changes appear
Being on edge until comfort appears
Across the aisle from desperate times
Listening to the last heartbeat of ambition
Amazed when people bother to show caring
Night is when feelings just get worse
Coasting to a stop on the most desolate road there is
Endings are preferable when the final choice arrives

forever is not enough

Posted on October 30, 2015 by jaybeasley2

For all the years we have not Been here
On this day I would like to recall
Right action and direct conversation only
Ending this hesitation which we have cradled
Voting for the return to our own mental stability
Each bite of the cake was as happy as a
Romantic evening at the best place in town
If their aren’t enough ways to describe it then
Stall the plane before it becomes too late
Nothing can stop the end of days
Only you can make me want to live forever
This is something that I couldn’t have foreseen
Enough time has burned into my brain that
Now I must let the final years wear on
Offering up the meat to the altar of our existence
Unless it means the sacrifice of our own best
Guess as to what was going to be our future
Having this time with a star of tiny sky

two skull cups

Posted on October 29, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Tonight I will not let you go, because I
Want to show the thoughts I have been
Overtaken by for the past year without
Stopping because that is how my brain works in
Keeping in the system of positivity and love
Utilizing these giant mind connections freely
Longing to affirm a bond
Like a moment hiding away from the world
Curled up in a warm room with a brew Or two
Under my arm you smile and laugh
Parties are coming up right around the corner
Starting with you Tonight it’s the best

RANT

Posted on October 20, 2015 by jaybeasley2

When life goes into double overdrive
You have options
There is always
Giving up, but nobody chooses, unless
You have already been so beaten down that
You cannot face it anymore. And you can
See it in the look that ‘people have when life
Had beaten them down enough that they
Give up. You can carry on,
The same old way that you always have been
Without trying too hard to change it or even
Making any waves or trying tip stir up the waters, just managing to keep your head up enough to keep on going and that is the best you can do; but the reaction that would help the most is to put yourself into double time as well, and grab the chance to change. There are plenty of opportunities to deny, but only so many to really do things with gusto, and be a brave person facing the horror of a life unlived. It is your life! Don’t really treat it like a Christmas present you halfway wrapped and forgot to properly fill. Put all the fun and fireworks and fury and excitement you want in it, then wrap it all up in the rest of the calender year and let’s go! You are the biggest obstacle to your dreams so get out there and do your thing!!! And don’t let yourself down!

persuasive sun heat

Posted on October 17, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Part of the calm that a bright warm can bring
Eases you into the beginning of evening
Removing the stress of those kind of days
Some of a returning vacation mind-set
Using this time to find a piece of peace
After all that you have had to Put up with today
Sometime am entire week can be healed by a single ray
Inside the eye of the Sun and
Volumes of comfort like a blanket fresh out the dryer
Empathy to the opening up of all green things beside you
Slow movement of shadows around a small splashing fountain
Until the melting nerves have dissolved again
Now that your glass is full and waiting
Heavy lidded eyes that see small branches shed leaves
Effort only coming in shifting to get more comfortable
Across the sky birds and planes fly
Then I see you and glorious times arrive

no relax moon

Posted on October 14, 2015 by jaybeasley2
the revalations and games needled in,
a dream, a tree,
all of these were helping me last night
  to the tune of a wind chime
and there is a sliver of light that
falls delicately across the floor
whispering to the endurance of
a very particular thought which does
keep its own company after the
demon of sleeplessness releases its grasp
fortune has drawn a circle around me
made of the ground up bones of
past mistakes and painfull memories
but i have defeated that monster
through focussed energies and power of will
yet the relaxation that comes before
rest will only arrive once i have
your amazing sighs by my side
and a peach chamomile hot toddy
to pride inside

particular bliss

Posted on October 13, 2015 by jaybeasley2
placing your hand in mine
another slow stroll has commenced
relaying the visions between clouds
trees that shiver in a cool breeze
inviting this dance of diversions and
collecting seconds that will never be forgotten
using any opportunity to slow down or
lasting pauses that observe
arranged environments of enthusiasm
rallying the good feeling of connections
keep on following where a vision will find
inside this familiar atmosphere
nestled beside a mountain of hope
during the last warm day of the season
now i want it to last and be
endless as the kindness of a hug
she is the glow of my sunshine
she has the fire of my own heat

bright forest

Posted on October 9, 2015 by jaybeasley2

Breezy movement wakes up the skin
Right when the light comes in through the leaves
Inside the courtyard of a cozy tiny kingdom
Golden rays shine on the metal table
Hitting the wet plants and fuzzy red cactus

Tucked into the spot where I can rest in my shady chair
Finding a cool drink and a pocket off silence right where I left them
On the end of today’s long exhausting path
Restless eyes and tired minds shake hands
Evidenced by the weak smiles and slow stretches we share
Soft sounds of nature and
Tiny glad minutes mean so much

ignorant bliss

Posted on October 9, 2015 by jaybeasley2

I am not like that, I can’t
Go hide out in the fort,
No, I have to be out and about,
On the move and always ready,
Really On the prowl or on
A battlefield when it counts,
Needing only quickness and wits
To take over the scenario,
Because you only live once
Let all of your individuality flow
Into the river of universal existence
Stay true to yourself and feel the world
Show your shine and follow your heart
