my thoughts are mine as such my words are mine they form inside my head they brew a storm of pure emotion mixed with thought a dash...

trusting

one day i'll write a story
it'll tell all 'bout my life
all the things i wondered 'bout
will finally be clear
and i
yes i will find a peace in that
'cause one day it will show
that trusting was the best idea
i could have ever known.

to those who make decisions in the dark

to those who make decisions in the dark
let me tell you
the hell you raise is hell you pay tomorrow
you see
the truth you hide with lies among the shadows?
it's out.
what's harmless now becomes a nightmare later
and then
the monster you created in the darkness?
it angers.
the conspiracy you formed among the few?
it breaks.
the safety net you thought you built around you?
it rips
when all wake up and finally see the truth.
i tell you
we'll wake up all enraged and you will flounder
ashore
like a stranded seal abandoned by his mother.
we're like
a group of writers censored in their efforts
why not
just hold a lighted match up to their blood and sweat and tears?
why not
just bring a riot right upon your doorstep?
don't fear
it's not a bloody, physical affair
you'll see
it's more of a goodbye, we've finally had it
and then
you have your lies but no one wants a share.

fly

to fly from one tree to another
to leave the safety of this nest
wove with down from my loving mother
tended by the love of all i've met.
to fly to branches unknown as yet
have i now the means to fly?
now i look down 'pon myself
and see that i have fully fledged.
perched on a branch and yearning to fly
fly to a nest i've never seen
set on a tree i've scarce explored
where nests a most beloved bird:
patience has he with my indecision
strength he shows in the passing moments
compassion he gives with each complication
love he gives without reserve.
wings i have and feathers too
desire and soul that longs for you
how soon shall i fly there? soon please soon
i'll conquer the fear and fly out to the blue.
