Infatuations...

They drown in thoughts deeper than the surface,
as they paddle in circles never closer to the shore.
The beating of so many hearts fade, an unfulfilled tone of inadequacy echoes.
Filling tomorrow with similar monotonous action.
In a mirror of continued madness.

Toward a sky they cannot hold,
in place of a life that fits the mould.

I stare from the other side,
climbing a tree to get a better line.
As I reach on, my heartbeat quickens.
Lips a deep red, as though dipped in sacrifice.

To take another step forward,
is a risk to fall.
Adrenalised warmth rushing under my skin.
Another breath, thin of air as I look within.

Toward a light no one else can see,
in search of a meaning greater than me.

I take a look at the sky above,
awaiting the stars return.
To a world that doesn't notice.
Why would they shine tonight?

Judgement...

I fall asleep before the day ends.
Shadows pulling me into the dark,
with the promise of filling the void in my heart.
But sweet dreams bring no rest.
They stand by idle, watching the day,
counting down until night, when I can come play.
But when I arrive I bring the waves.
The calming dark water, filling in the shadows space.
Then I can see who they really are,
and I don't know if I want a part.

I touch the surface of the water
it takes me in
not needing to know my sins.

Between the Light...

A dark night, full of light.
A hopeful dawn, at first sight.
The colours above, as down below,
shows the worlds heart, before it knew.
What it was or who it loved,
and why everything hurt each moment of,
a breath still thin, though a weight inside
In its lungs, a breath of life.
I wait now as it did before,
for the light to reach the forest floor.
All things live as the sun shares its love.
And all things are good, I can trust.
