SOUL (Remove filter)

Naked Soul

I've given my soul to the world in a blinding way. I've allowed for them to speak to me laying their hearts on the floor within these four walls. I have seen humanity at it's worst and again at it's best. The human soul is stronger than we give it credit; it can withstand a storm of cruel words and actions that meant to change even the softest individual into someone who looks out upon the world w...

REFLECTIONS OF A LIFE

Gaze into the mirror

at the face behind the mask

and wonder if it's really you,

or don’t you dare to ask?

 

Who can know what lies beyond

the mirrors fragile face,

reflections of another life;

another time or place?

  

Touch the chill upon the glass

and see a tiny ripple,

was it real or in your mind,

did it really feel so supple?

 

Gaze into empty eyes

I Wanna Know. . .

When you're empty...it shows much character, shows much emotion, it is very vibrant, You say so much being silent...I feel as if i can read you, but there is days when i see you, you look so beautiful being happy, and sometimes i wonder is that really you or are you just masking your poor soul contracting?...I wanna know. - Oscar A. Ojeda.

twisted trees

A twisted oak coiled round its self the perfect home for a mouse.

He climbed up a twisted branch and made his peace there, he built a nest of twine in the hollow center.

twine woven in brade, ants climbing up in parade. the army came to a hault and flead, they

feared for their lives and would rarther not be dead.

 

the stars a gemstone, the moon an ivory marble in a get jar.

POOLS OF LOVE

Gaze into a persons eyes,

far beyond the mask

and wonder at the questions

that you’re too afraid to ask.

 

Gloriously gazing

into depths of deep emotion,

currents running deep

within a cool and placid ocean.

 

Dive into the loving soul

of one who gives their all

and marvel at the feelings

that are waiting for the call.

 

Deliberately diving

into stro...

DARK PANACEA

A crowded room

is such a lonely place,

wear a fragile mask

upon a weary face.

 

Everybody’s here

but there’s nobody there

and there’s nothing to do

except sit and stare.

The distant sounds

of joy and laughter

drifting like echoes

in dusty rafters.

 

As you slowly subside,

sinking way down low

and you're silently wondering

how far you can go.

A LONELY LAMENT

The flickering flame

in the dream of your eyes,

is a glimmer of life

in a darkening sky.

 

But little heat remains

to warm the weary hearts

of those so slowly left

bereft and torn apart

 

A chill wind blows a tear

across the cooling fires,

a rain of lasting love falling

softly through life's briars

 

A trickle of silent sorrow

leaving trails on shall...

Insight

In the mirror I see your face
In the birds I see your heart
In the clouds I see your mind
In the rain I see your tears
In the ocean I see your depth
In the trees I see your strength
In the rainbow I see your beauty
In the wind I see your breath
In the sky I see your soul
No insight sees deeper than no sight.
