I am dead
But I am breathing
I have no pulse
But I swear my heart is beating
My body is gone
But I am still here
My smile is bright
My eyes are shining bright like a deer's
My feet are moving
Yes, right towards you
Down a long path to a place
A place of beauty
A place of grace
A place of perfect art
A place where I am free
A place I like to call your heart
For my Nana :)
:Light:
Not every place is cold these days,
No not everything is dark,
There is always a spark of light,
Yes a light
That ignites the dark
It warms the dark
Yes warms it
And reminds it of happy times
It makes the dark smile
Yes smile
Even though it must frown
Light makes the dark joyful
Yes joyful
When everything is bad
You are the light to my darkness
That spark that always glows
Yes that spark that always warms me
From my head
To
My
Toes
"Dream"
What's it like
To dream a dream
You know can't come true?
Is it like flying
Through space and sparkling stars?
Is it like
Writing a book or making terrific art?
Is it like
Loving someone you cannot have
Yet they love you back?
Is it like
Traveling through time to a place
Of magic
Or is it like
Just imagining the things that you can do?
Because every dream you have can come true
With a little work
It can be real like you
"Heart"
Grief and pain are not the same
Pain is a needle in your arm,
Grief is a stab to your heart.
"Dark Days"
Train Station, wind whips, train station, gone,
Remote Park, dark clouds, remote park, gone,
Lonley Memorial, sobbing rain, lonely memorial, gone,
Day time, numb feeling, day time, gone
Crying children, no lights, crying children, gone,
Shrieking women, trembling much, shrieking women, gone,
Helpless men, no hope, helpless men, gone,
Last man, wind whips, last man, stays,
Last man, dark clouds, last man, stays,
Last man, sobbing rain, last man, stays,
Last man, numb feeling, last man, stays,
Last man, no lights, last man, stays,
Last man, trembling much, last man, stays,
Last man, no hope, last man, stays.
Not every soul is broken in these dark days.
"Stand Alone"
Sometimes you want to stand
and face things alone,
but you can't.
You think your stronger, tougher and more clever,
then you are.
And when you finally realize, that you can't
face things alone,
Your already beaten with broken and swollen bones,
Accept the help that you need,
when you can no longer, stand tall
on your feet.
"Love"
Love isn't butterflies,
or shy hugs goodbye,
or saying "I love you"
at the randomest times,
It isn't conversations,
you won't remember,
or a small thing that lasts,
from November to December,
No.
Love is a warm feeling,
and tight hugs goodbye,
and saying "I love you,
at just the right times,
Its long conversations,
that you always remember,
Its a big thing that lasts
forever.
Morning Song
Listen.
Around you the world goes
quiet and calm,
the leaves whisper
silently as the wind sings a song
the voices soften
as you hum along,
ever so soflty
as the morning moves on.
Listen.
Around you the world erupts in song,
the leaves, the wind, they all,
bellow along,
Not afraid to share
their voices,
as long as yours in strong,
ever so loudly
as the morning marches on.
