RELEASE ME

Clip the wings

Shackle the feet

I am forced down

My eyes seem vacant

My soul broken

I am a shell of a man

This force unbearable

I shall be mute, blind, and deaf to my actions

The key is broken

My escape thwarted

RELEASE ME

I want to fly again

RELEASE ME

I want choice again

RELEASE ME

My love is waiting

RELEASE ME

I am alive

RELEASE ME

I push and struggle

RELEASE ME

Something ignites within my self

RELEASE ME

I stand tall against your will

RELEASE ME

My eyes hold Fire

RELEASE ME

I Strain against the shackles

RELEASE ME

They strain and shatter against my will

RELEASE ME

I jump into the world and soar

My freedom guaranteed as long as I live

I shall not stand down again

I will fight

I will win

Sacrifice

Sacrifice alone is pointless unless it benefits

I could rush an army to be quickly destroyed

Or I could start a rebellion that changes a nation

I could save my income for possessions unneeded

Or I could help feed the weary and down trout

I could spend a minute giving to charity

Or I could help a lost soul once again find his path

I could cry for my losses and short comings

Or I could help someone else not make the same mistakes

I could talk about how the world is a wonderful place

Or I could be a martyr to the belief that this world and mankind as a whole is worth dying for

Why do something if it won’t make the world a better place

Why despair about what is wrong instead of being grateful for what is right

Why sacrifice so little for so few when you can do so much for so many

Our Love

The stories of love hold no torch to the ones we write with our own hearts.

For you i could write forever about your smile and the happiness it brings to my life.

I could write about your laugh and how it draws the very color into my world.

I could write about us and the fairytale that is our love for each other.

I love you so much and this story is one written in the stars for all to see.

If eternal life was without you i would choose a mortal life.

If i could not hold you in my arms i would hold you in my heart and soul forever.

You are existence and existence is bliss.

I See Right Through You

Being foolish doesn’t justify your mistakes

I see right through you

Through a shadowed past and crimson present I see through you

If you needed me why couldn’t you speak?

I have always been here for you

The hand that catches you and guides your path

But now I sit in the shadows and watch as you choose to walk alone

I see right through you

You can’t lie to me and say you want to live your life

You are killing yourself as you indulge

You are different from the world and the world is different from you

Stand up and show how you are unique

I see right through you

You say you no longer love me

A lie I can see from miles away

Look into my eyes

I see through you and there is nothing I do not love

I love you

A Second Chance

Second chances are for the loved. From the lovers Sent with care to the rough. In Hopes to smooth away their sharp edges. Without sharp edges one can hold again without pain. With holding comes love and happiness. Comfort eternal within ones arms. A second chance can either change nothing, or make all the difference. Its wiping a single tear from ones cheek when they say their sorry. Taking their hand in yours when they grasp for it. Or returning their sad looks with a loving smile. You may mean all the difference to them. But without a second chance that emptiness where they were in your heart will never completely fill. You will never know if they loved you as much as you them, or if they to wanted nothing more then to fall asleep within your arms. Don’t rush your second chance but please give it. Because with love you just never know

Falling Leaves Upon the World

I fell forward and clouds passed me as I rushed towards the earth.

I can see the mountains with snow covered tops and evergreen trees

I feel the cool air pass between my fingers slowing my descent slightly

I see rivers flowing into gulfs brimming with life

I see an eagle following my descent with his keen sight

Clouds cover me with the worlds tears both sad and life giving

The ground so far away no longer seems as distant

Homes sprout from the ground giving shelter to loving families

Fires of compassion heat both the body and soul

I open my arms wide to embrace the world in its entirety

The world is so much too so many and so little to so few

And we are blind to its life giving nature

As a babe is blind to reasons of existence

I am but one leaf on the tree of life

Waiting for my slow decent to a beautiful world

Hoping only to make something as grand as life a little bit better
