Never Learn
There i go
Showing the weakness ididn't know
once again
Unable to learn
Circling, bend after turn
once again
Wishing to fall
Swifter to Angel's call
once again
I try to
Dream again of you
once again
Staring into sky
Where stars and angels fly
once again
Dazing off untill
The tommarrow of chills
once again
Till I'm slain

Reflection in the Window
I feel outside
I feel the cold
under my almost bare feet
The tear doesn't run down my cheek
I hold her in my arms,
Feeling the unknown warm,
chills me to the bone,
Shows what I'm missing
I can see the many smiling
faces, behind the icy
Glass
Two faces don't smile
I see.
A frown and a curse
over the words I would not speak

Reaching Your Sky
“keine Bäume erreichen überhaupt den Himmel'
“no trees ever reach the sky.”
They stretch with every branch
Of their being
They dance giving leaves and wings
As messages to their sky….
A tree can never touch the sky,
They just grasp for it
To reach the sky,
There has to be no roots
There only has to be wings
With still a place on the ground
To call home…

Sickening Words
The feeling of being sick
Surrounded by these emotions
With no name
They fill me up and
Consume me
Until...
I can't breathe
I can't speak
Only cry to myself
In pain
Sickened by the words
I can't say
I choke as I try to stop
Those dangerous words
I can never say
Nor can I ever write
I would be the unknown face
Behind a millon Works of Art
Famous yet Unseen
But I can't speak

Words you wouldn't Sing
You wouldn't mean it if you had
only said it.
You sat wondering with curiosity
Why I would call it my favorite song
Because you could not see that it was
My dream
I longed for those words,
Then I drowned in emotions,
When you never did it.
When you wouldn't whisper gently
in my ear.
You wouldn't tell me all was 'Okay'
So I continue sitting here
Fear the distance
Listening to happiness and dance
Someone else telling me the words you wouldn't
'I Hope you Dance, and never fear the mountains in the distance'

My perfect white grave
As I look out to the white grave
I wish to stay here all through the day
Peace and quiet and only me
Writting poems and stories for all of time
I wish for all to leave
Just me alone
Let the white terror stop time
And let me be in peace
Let the white terror outside my window
Slow the everyday life
Let me be in my peace of mind
Quiet and peace and only me
Writting poems and stories for all time
Just let the snow white danger slow all time
Please let me be
Let the snow white monster give me my peace
Slow the everyday life
Leave me to gather myself alone

Today sounds like Yesterday....
Everything stays the same:
Blah blah blah…the world goes by
Songs are sang
Words are spoke
Music is played
Speeches are recorded
Blah blah blah….the world full of noise
Bumps go in the night
Kabooms rock July
Thunders scare the innocent
Guitars entertain the guilty
Blah blah blah…..the world sounds still
Everything remains changing:
Blah blah blah…..the world goes by
Different
Songs are sang
Different
Words are spoke
Different
Music is played

Raining Blood
Don’t you wish the rain to wash away all fears
To blend with and dismiss all the tears
You wish the rain to calm all rage
To let you out of the emotional cage
You want peace to reign
Let all other thoughts fall away like rain
But when the rain doesn’t take all away
You wish the rain to not stay
When the rain is blood
It comes over you like a sudden flood
Fears come out to taught you
Tears come and attack too
Rage set free
Cage wont let you be

Bordom
Sitting
Nothing
No sound
Not even the dog in the back
Then a song comes up
Same ol song
Never ending
I just keep pushing play
Thinking
What will tomarrow be like
Nothing
Same ol life
Same ol thing
Nothing changing
Not even the song
Not the dog barking
Not the creaks and cracks of the haunted floor
Not the feel of someone watching
Not the wish of something else
Nothing changeing ever

Little person in the well
Little person in the well
Why are you still here
Is life so hard to look at
You must linger here
Must you be out of sight
From something with no eyes
Little person in the well
Why are you still here
Is life so hard to look upon
That you must linger here
Little person in the shadows
Why are you sitting here
Is life so hard to look upon
That you must hide in the shadows
Must you hide so nothing can find you
When nothing's searching
