Blockades
blockade number one
apparently I'm anti-fun
blockade number two
my parents will never let me have you
blockade number three
what if you don't even love me?
blockade number four This love is making my heart sore
will there be anything for you to love left after i withhold feelings
will my heart be thinner then potato peelings
blockade number five
it would seem that I will not be taken live
These are my blockades and many more are here
each one blocking me from you my dear.....

The Nature Of The Storm
Glare at the cloud
Guarded by fog and shroud
And see the storm will be here
Soon it will be quite near
Brace yourself my dear
And yet before
We have to be torn at the core
Torn to and fro, there will be a calm before a calm
A time where there shall be no qualm
And yet the calm is terrifying
The silence before war is maddening
It is not the nor consoling calm of peace
But a maddening roar of quiet
I fear the calm more than the storm because sometimes 'Not Knowing'
That's the worst

Watch Him Twitch
freaking out.....about time i got a gun
freaking out....about time u started to run....
closer....closer....closer to what...
freaking out..... the long knife ready to cut
freaking out the amatuar will start to do
closer closer... to losing a limb..now
freaking out... ready to die you too?
freaking out... how did this happen how
closer...closer...death come
not freaking out...inevitablility and fate..... arise
blacken and bloody my skies
i see no future ahead
i see a future where im dead

The Chronicles of A New Day part 4 Looking Back, and Seeing the Present Has Changed
I look back at my old feelings
frayed memories, scarred, burnt and black
as day after day passies by
I obessess over the past
I try to find a part that would last
I try!
and try i look back deeper and deeper i am very deep in now deeper
very deep i am lost in thought, my consciousness, frayed, and memories seep
out and seem to drain away
not here to stay not even for another day
the Longer i look back the more the present passes me by
the world changes, moves, and hates without me or at me.

Sure Why Not
though do not mistake me for one who indulges in causerie
or causeries for that matter sometimes i like to be a mystery
but in my times of need sometimes i allow the seed
seed, of causerie to take root
sometimes when people want to chat i don't give them the boot
this is one such time
told to you in a rhyme
that is why i say sure why not?
its not like the open book can keep himself from being caught
This is why i decide when i hear the words do you want to chat
that i say yes and thats that

Dedicated to..
this one rhyme
is dedicated to this time
to person unknown
to one who has not flown
out of a cage
just like me... me on this page
its to the girl... to the one...
but i lied this battle i have not won...
who
who is this for?
is it to you?
no...no... maybe i should go
not this time... won't stay
unless i stay away...
who is my love devoted to... love...
cage up like a chained dove
who is this to? who is going to let it free who do i love? who?
who are my love songs to.... who is this dedicated to....

Just Look Up at the Night
...No you'll never be alone.
When darkness comes I’ll light the night with stars,
O fair lady gaze at my stars and they will sing for you their secret lullaby
Look at the stars and how they shine for you and everything that you do,
Though I will stand away from my stars and sing you yet another song of peace
Till u fall into your heavenly sleep
It will be strange and drawn out,
Not high and not low,
But I sing it not only with confidence,
But hoping you will like it too
I sing the words I love you....

Pensive About This Cage Thats Me
do i have your permission
not yet o i see im in complete submission
my mission not to die
condemned never to fly
never to fly away
not even for a day
trapped here
never out there
what is like
is it like those day in which i used to hike
or i have never truly seen
anything more then my suncreen world
heh if you dont understand that
why even get a pat
on the back for something you never did
sure sure i never did either
but i never got now did i
my misson not die
my misson not die
condemnned to stay

I'm Glad Too
I'm glad too
to have a friend so great as you
someone to be there
someone whose kindness adorns her like flowing long hair
someone who will care
someone who might dare
to get to know me
someone who i can spend minutes... hours with happily
glad to have you, a friend who won't tear me down mock or hurt
not someone i have to watch my back around or be alert
a wonderful individual that i can flick a wave and flash a smile and think 'friend'
someone i can trust some who is amazing
i am glad to have a friend like you

Blank
what can you say
when your mind is empty
I suppose come what may
there is not much to me
I'm just blank
nothing to say
what do you expect me to write?
I'm like one who has lost his sight
but has no dog, and no guide whose closest friend is blackness
and only comfort is darkness
i see no more than nothingness
yet now is when i can most clearly see my blankness
blindness
timeless but not unforgettable timeless
because of a lack of perception- all i have left is blankness
not even worthy of a 'ness' I'm just blank...
