maybe it is still (just) sleepy time
once again,
we left the doors open
for someone—
it's the Western
or the Eastern light
peeking in
seeming again
to chase shadows
out of nowhere
but let me begin
the neverending
waking moment
because you do not
know yet—how lucky
you are
for not seeing
the aesthetically
pleasing
in every mists
that surround you
You play with me,
You tease me,
You give me your full attention,
I play with you,
I tease you,
I give you my full attention,
Playing together feels so right,
Its never too late,
We can play together any time,
Sometimes we dont have to play,
We can just talk,
I dont want to lose you to the darkness inside,
Take my hand,
Walk with me through the woods,
All the trees clearing to a field of grass and flowers,
Clear sky overhead,
Lay down with me,
Hold me close as I hold you,
Stare up at the endless blue,
I want to stay like this forever,
With you,
Listening to you breathe,
Play with me,
Chase me,
Grab hold of me,
Pin me to the ground,
Dont hurt me,
I wont hurt you,
Neither of us deserve the pain,
Please dont leave me.
Eyes wide open,
Heart pounding in my chest,
Breath catching in my throat,
I choke back the tears,
All a dream.
in what dark recesses of torture remain
exists a dreaded seed for us to obtain
to keep us sane and deliver us from evil
so goes the creed of an everlasting people
unending doubt resonates to be
impermanance rooted in an everlasting dream
scarcity of hope glimmering in dusk
prevention of fortune in a world of luck
forever told from stories past
eerily reminiscent of perpetual task
systems of new destroyed wisdom once known
for all apart of a world unsown
grimmace and malice plagued once more
in dire times that conjured vile scorn
but it was hope that was given once last chance
now grows a tree from the seed of our past
I dreamed a dream of stars and light
Shining brightly in the night
But then I saw, to my surprise
That they existed in your eyes
I had an illusion of desire
It's scarlet flames were rising higher
And soon after we took flight
You quickly vanished in the night
I gained an insight of your being
Sitting, broken, hopeless-feeling
I sat next to you, contrite
To tell you it was all alright
I bear a vision, dark and deep
It has me turning in my sleep
Your memories I'll keep and keep
As I sit to sigh and weep
All she really wanted to do was to live her life the way she wanted to live, not the way the protectors thought she should.
She wanted to be set free from the bonds that bound her to the ground.
Freedom is what she wanted to soar like an eagle, to explore the world outside of her unwanted secure safe haven.
Explore, learn, experience life, her life on her terms.
Explore the unknown world near and far outside of the only world she's known. She needs to crush the bonds that bind her and prove to all she is capable of living a healthy and happy life.
Just to let her breathe and experience life.
She's been told what, where, how, and who to associate with since the beginning of time, she's ready to destory the bubble that the protectors have formed around her over the years for her own protection they say...
She just wants to experience the outside world herself. To see the world as it is and to meet people from all walks of life.
She must have a first hand experience not just through books, because you can only learn so much from books, but to be able to experience it first hand and to feel that awe of excitement while she experiences the wonders of the world as others have done
Her overbearing protectors ask, ' Where will go? Where will you stay? What will you eat? For you have no money, so they ask How will you achieve your travels when you have nothing?'
Thinking to herself never a spoken idea or thought to her protectors for they shoot her down with arrows every time, so why say a word at all? When she can remain happy in her thoughts by remaining silent as a lamb.
The protectors tell her to get her head out of the clouds, stop that daydreaming, that's nonsense, you're being foolish with these thoughts and ideas. For it will only bring you sorrow and grief to you.
They act as though she's a helpless lamb who cannot defend for herself without them, when in all actual reality they're suffocating her.
The protectors tell her it's a waste of time that it's a cold, cruel world out there that's why she must remain where she is and to do as she is told to remain safe and secure.
For they tell her if she leaves she will lose everything that the protectors have worked so hard to give her a life, a secure life. If she leaves the protectors she will have nothing, she will leave with nothing, and when she fails she will come back with nothing, but she's willing to take that chance in order for her to live her life to the fullest potential.
The life that she was meant to have, a life of a newfound freedom. Adventures lie ahead in her new way of life that she has chosen for herself and therefore to be an adventurous young woman she will learn and experience all the excitement that awaits her in the unknown outside world.
I dreamed about you yesterday
We talked about how it had been a long time
Since we were last face to face
And the experiences we had
While the other was away
In this false reality I saw somthing new
I saw love in your gaze
And I believed it to be true
You read out a poem you wrote
It consisted of my own wording
It was a heart felt love letter
Forged by a mind diluted and yearning
Your words haunted me
As my mind furthered the fiction
A beautiful girl
In such an imaginary position
Forward you leaned
Approaching me for a kiss
And as our lips met
I recalled creating this
Your body was ethereal
Your speech was vague
You were filled with passion
This was not our true fate
So I held that moment
I captured it in my mind
A love dream of you
Featuring a letter I forged and signed
Love is like hot cocoa
On a cold winters day
Snuggled up in a blanket
Watching the snow outside
Love is like having a dream
Good or bad, it doesn't matter
Because if you roll over
You'll be held all night long
Love is like waking up
To dew outside your tent
The birds singing for the morning
And the smell of a woodfire
Verse 1:
Take a look inside:
What do you see?
A divergred road in two?
Or a new journey?
Chorus:
Take me into your arms
'Cause you're my safe haven, babe.
If I already knew
That you were mine to keep,
I wouldn't have wasted time.
Verse 2:
Take a look inside:
Will you choose the diverged road
Or a new journery
Of life's mysteries?
Bridge:
Now, things are collapsing
Onto my feet again.
Take a look inside:
What do you see?
Last-Chorus:
Now, the time has come for me
To put myself into your arms tonight.
Wrong or right,
I won't even try.
