Life Tests

Life Tests

 

Everyday, everyone is tested

From a house, to school, to outside

We will never be well rested

To be fully focused and abide

 

Since we can't really say no

As life falls like an endless rain

From a text to a tornado

Or a hello to a hurricane

 

While the choice being ours eternal

To be affected or effected so simple

To take it personal or genera...

Preliminary Relief

This anticipation is like fire

Which is fed more wood and coal

Breath so deep like the sea

Seeming to be my only friend

 

As people surround and attach a wire

I can physically feel my blood boil

Sparks of fear give me reason to flee

Yet they only mean to help tend

 

My body shakes with unpleasant desire

An icy serpent scales my arm into a coil.

A bright light b...

The Controller of Life


The controller of life

Everyday we see levels of control
From the day we gain consciousness
To the day we lose vitality.
it causes our blood to boil
But then let's our air flow freely
Yet no matter what
there is only one.
One controller to decide if we live or die
One controller to see how hard we try
One controller to test our faith
One controller to keep us safe
One controlle...

Words too hot for the tongue

Words too hot for the tongue


 

I was once a flame kindling with every thought

The fire inside grew brewing hearty soup.

Everyday i checked to see it was hot.

My cooking cycle seemed endless, a constant

loop

 

nothing in the world could put my fire out

My flame made the sun look like a candle.

this scorching affection burned through any doubt

The slightest touch ...

Let Me Sleep

Let Me Sleep


 

Blinded by the heaven's streaking light

Trying to get some good old humble rest.

Sinking deeper into the night's abyss

Knowing one day ill rise like a phoenix.

Give me all the reason to stay asleep,

while trying to shake me awake.

Well I won’t miss much if I stay this way

And that’s no problem to me

[2x]

So let me go into the darkness

Where I ca...

Away From The Wave

On a clear radiant day

Wrapped in a blanket of sand i lay,

Lathered with warm windy kisses

Managing to keep my mind at bay.

Like the still water world before me,

I let my gaze go astray.

A cloudy sigh escapes me

As the wind jogs across the sea,

While that same sigh soars high

Wings spread across the pacific sky.

An ominous shadow above is cast

Yet my peripheral vi...

The Notebook

The Notebook

 

My own personal canvas

expanding its pages like a universe,

existing as my personal codex.

A safe-haven   

holding my deepest darkest secrets

dormant in a chamber of my heart.

My best friend

created as my book of revelations

counting the years

my notebook and I share.

Holding it close

and keeping its meaning closer,

jotting every thought rac...
