Meaning

Meaning

A certain amount of matter
And a little bit of mass
Have found themselves together
Just to process carbon gas
A transformation ever changing
But to the world, a different view
It passes in an instant
Unfettered and unskewed
The scars will heal so quickly
As is they had never been
The struggle to be heard
Above the maddening din

My muse has left me…

My muse has left me…

My muse has left me
It thought itself free
It wonders the world
Having forsaken me

Carried away
On a wish and a prayer
Looking for answers
Found god know where

Bound but still separate
In heart and in mind
My muse will return
With love in good time

Hourglass

Tired of playing ifs or ands
Watching the glass run out of sand
Time is foremost on my mind
Pages turn and years unwind
Tomorrow is gone, no more is the light
Anguish unbarring, the struggle, the fight
Decisions will come, time will seem brief
Taken away by the words of a thief

Decisions

Decisions

A fleeting ball of gossamer
Floats precariously on the wind
My soul’s sanity is dependant
On sticking a needle in
I’m no tower of strength
Built so tall and compelling
I’m not a font of love
There is no joy over welling
The line will end with me
Not drift infinite into space
It will never be the right time
The right person or the right place
Hopes are dashed here daily
Don’t come here to have your tears quenched
Truth cleans brighter then cleanser
Lesser emotions must be benched
So gird your loins and enter
Don’t be surprised when I say
I will not lose my center
There, at least, you have no say.

Within

Within

Passion ignited by lust
Burns quickly and brightly
But never lasts for long
To sustain love, you need more
You need intimacy
More than carnal knowledge
To know each other
Inside and out
Without a touch
Without a word
Within

Questions

Questions

If I forgot your name…
       Would  the wind whisper it back to me?
       Would the stars light it in the skies?
       Would the seas spill your secrets?
If my heart forgot to beat…
       Would you breathe my breath for me?
       Would you cradle me in your arms?
       Would you share your life in my veins?
If the world were to end tomorrow…
       Would air still move through the land?
       Would fire still burn?
       Would our tears quench the parched earth?
