She is Spring's first bloom;
She fills any dried out river
with her smile;
She is every wish made on a shooting star.
You can't help but feel your heart
in your chest in the presence of her.
She'll take your gray and make a rainbow.
Her delicate hands will always touch you
with every ounce of her love,
and bring out your ever fair orchid
hidden within.
A kiss from her gives you wings
to fly from your troubles,
and fly above the clouds when they
cover the moon.
You've never seen a rose
like the one in her hands.
You've seen beauty, but never
felt it like the one from her soul.
Has anyone ever explored the worlds
in her e
It comes; I hate it; I want it gone.
It lies to me; I like it; I realize it's lying;
my world crashes down; I want it gone.
That sequence keeps repeating,
all the while I'm waiting
for this universe to throw a miracle
my way.
Why cry for things in the back of me?
Why go moping on about things
hoping for sympathy?
Why dive into infantile thinking
that has been the fall of so much
potential?
Yes, the fact is I put myself here,
and it hurts to see where I could be,
and where I have to go.
Is sadness and regret the same thing?
There's no point in having this pain,
but I can't exactly push a button
and have it exit from inside.
Never go back
Never hold it in, to kill you faster
Let it breathe...
Believe you can be everything
Realize you can feel anything
Pain...
Love...
Sorrow...
RELEASE....
How can I have forgotten about you, baby?
Your warmth?
Your touch?
Your seductive stare?
How submissive I became at the sight of your lips touching my skin...
How can I feel such chainless freedom now?
To be able to explore the possiblities
Without you pulling me back...
.....so far down into the abyss.
Where do I come back to?
This emptiness...
This unimaginable loniness?
Here.
Into a place were I feel weightless.
Alone and yet...
Free
I do not know.
Its inner and outer beauty are one,
and it wakes up my eyes to see,
for me and others, that so are ours.
Only I'm not yet strong enough to let that truth
completely enter in where it should and bloom from there,
yet it still makes me smile,
and so many things start with a smile.
I imagine it has stored up so many blown kisses;
I imagine the light of our love for it
gives it more light than the sun.
When it's going down
it's like a million diamonds
acting like children,
running frantically everywhere,
with an extra helping of innocence and joy on top.
For me
The lights have turned off,
as they often do,
but then comes that
There once was a little spider,
who wove a web on the windowsill,
insidious eyes always watching,
body tensed as if time was still.
The flies would never notice,
a figure as focused as he,
as they buzzed into their deathbed,
he would later feast with glee.
Mummified to be murdered,
lives wrapped away with white,
as his legs spun faster their hearts beat slower
till' they stopped squirming, gave up the fight.
If they had not been caught in the spiders web,
would have wandered wall to wall for days.
Their false freedom was gone, through they knew not,
glass would have stopped their escape anyways.
In the spider's mind a favour
i know that i look tired
it's because i'm burning out
you are
my personal high
but you turn into
nicotene headaches
my eyes are red
devoid of life
you think
i'm just losing sleep
you better watch me
i'm losing my mind
i'm looking in from the outside
i see you
looking toward the glass
both of you
making steam on my windowpane
with your ragged breathing
but it's bulletproof
i could never get through to you
this plan might have been foolproof
but we'll never see
you were
the only question i never answered
you kept me tongue tied
and when i was looking up at the sky
searching for answers
all i ever saw was us
six
Heavy in your arms -
deadweight, limp and loveless
tied in a sack and sown with concrete
to rest on riverbeds below.
Washed out to sea and out of your sheets,
still clinging to the carpet as if it was yesterday.
Curled like a child and shaking
till you picked me up out of pity.
So heavy in your hands-
my head lulled back and forth like the tide,
tongue bitten and blocking breath
thrown to the roof of my mouth.
Our love like backwash, escaping
the normal flow and ebb,
drying up and dying alone.
Heavy, heavy in your head -
memories of me crushing down
like waves, swallowing
my last breath is your last thought.
It is in th
"I will never...."
"I can never...."
"I swear I'd never...."
"God...."
The word,never, breathes it's lie into every conversation
Every aspect of human interaction
The word....the phrase
It stings the lips of all who repeat it an all who recieve it
It immediately closes our minds
And breakdown the very fabric of reality
What world can be trapped in such a dysfunctional existance?
"I'll NEVER truly know....."
The concept of 'never' is a never ending cycle of uncertainty
Insecturity-
Unsincerity-
Rejection....
A weapon
Used to sheild the emotions of those who weild it's power
It's charge
It's fire....
NEVER.
NEVER.
NEVER.

A Sunflower in the Shade
A Sunflower in the Shade
By: Adam M. Snow
O' ye Countess draped in sorrow,
Grasping fear of coming morrow.
With eyes like those of torment slave,
Sad innocence, yet herself she gave.
Living in shadows of sun cast,
As if no soul of solstice passed.
Gentles thy heart that long to be seen,
Urge thine life into worlds between.
Withering away like a sunflower in shade,
Consumed by life, embarrassed and afraid.
But thy lives only bitter affliction,
Crossed my path into my reflection.
Baring the weight of worlds upon thee,
Living life as it were meant to be.
But this be not a wakeful day,
The broad stream bore her far away.
