I give this love That whisked me away With the wind Carrying a dead leaf. One chance in hope of salvation. #Poetry #poem

Put other minds behind you And wonder what freedom Exists within your soul. You never took more than 100 steps to progress And, perhaps, just by moving You can leave These steps behind. You spend days in your head Forgetting the world without. #Poetry #poems #poem

I feel the keys rattling In my pocket. Each key is a talisman Drawing me back. For now I sit On a shoreline As salvation beckons me. I scuttle silently Picking up shells as I will. Loneliness is my navigator As I return to where I dwell With all my fears. #poems #poetry

Help your pleading eyes That stare at A question unanswered As I realize this is The first and last greeting. We may never meet again, So let us learn the insignificance Of strangers, enemies, And friends. #poetry #poem

As knowledge expands I leave aside man and his fables While seeing symbols For what they are. A white dove of peace Is shot down. I try to push over bookshelves But they fall over me. All this knowledge And preserved memory Forever leaving me bound. #Poetry #poem

Dealing in open wounds Like standing On an exposed heart. Holding down the love Of a disgraced man. The smell of blood Conjures memories Of angry love. The site of light And darkness Pivot around the other While two stand Over the edge. #poems #poetry

In my loneliness I could not recall my past, present, or future. There was only void and bruising. I could not even self-edit my awareness. I was left to feel the breadth of a sad reality. Learning truly the lesson of impermanence Knowing truly that we repeat it time and time again. #poems #poetry

Stomping my feet around my head. I do this not to prove that someone is home, But to wake up and then regret a memory. I never considered her insight. Now I can see that Half the time the world really is beautiful. #poetry #poem

Life feels pointless— A breath cursed And justified by fragile purpose. You age into loneliness, Stare into coffee, Regret every word. Rage silent, Sincerity rare. Your note revealed it: We never reached the stars. Now, just flesh, bone, And fading sympathy remains. #vss365 #poem #poetry

From the child it is clear That their elders are Generally careless. Wearing their youth In a larger suit. Not on the left Nor on the right. No direction Shows approval. This is how We perform existence With little knowledge Of our destination. We receive nothing But silent applause. #poetry #poem

We dreamt of deep caverns, Shielded from light, Guided by unseen wisdom. We turn inward to survive, Shaping futures We don’t yet grasp. But when we return, All is changed— Displaced by insight, Left with only The will to carry on, Riding the echoes Of greater souls. #vss365 #poem #poetry

That incidental force Lacking concern For the next five minutes. Living in the moment For the pulse Of our glorious momentum. Pushing forward Like an artist's brush. Material turns to dust. We come to form, Then we shatter And fade. #poem #poetry

She turns to the side, And I see No smile or frown, But a nose And I may sit and wonder What reason is this That I may sit and wonder Of nothing but My own heart And not the complexities Of a silhouette. #vss365 #poem #poetry

My head is blank. Once life felt like a puzzle. Now it makes sense, But thoughts come slow. I chase the focus I once had, Grasping for flow. Men grow on knowledge, Yet I stall. In dreams, we fly. We are heroes in sleep, Blind to the wounded Soul inside, Waiting to be seen. #poem #poetry

I call her My heroine Of the vanishing. I pay the price To smell her flower, Trying to keep The scent in my mind, But the flower withers And the scent turns sweet. Into my nose, Into my mind: Sweet. In my soul I can feel This abundant light #promoting Completeness unknown. #vss365 #poem #poetry

We've all felt pride in living, Glimpsed the cosmos, Then shattered— Seeking the next to infect With nirvana’s Violent beauty. We marry uncertainty, Bury courage, Tire of insults. Screaming, kicking, We emit air— Failure’s scent Is guiding the way. #vss365 #poem #poetry

He is an angry young man Fed with guilt. Walking around like A wounded animal Too full of pride To show pain On sunny days, Proving his Imagined strength To his enemies. In his wrath He prays for some god To smite his brethren In an attempt To cover his shame. #vss365 #poem #poetry

I speak, But the abyss Swallows my words. Truth lingers In one selfish thought. I won’t claim to give meaning. War fills the void. In the end, Justice is The butchering of one's senses. #vss365 #poem #poetry

The moment we come to be We cry that we're born Upon this great stage of fools That's built upon the labor of life's scorn. But we're made of brighter things. We live to grasp the brass ring. Oh, take the carousel home and call in the morn’. #originalmusic #diymusic #musiciansky #synths

All my life I have defaulted To these excuses, Forgiving everything That is done unto me. On late nights I travel home, I reflect On every second of the day Dividing good fom evil. The passing lights Flicker a message Of love indescribable. Blinded by the illusion. #vss365 #poem #poetry

You remember how You bled emotions Onto paper, Marking thoughts in An inexperienced language, Meant for your eyes only. Poetry felt easy— Until you saw its depth, Its artistry The experts seemed Like gods or Distant stars Shining far beyond Your reach. #vss365 #poem #poetry

Dripping love thoughts Into eternity, I risk December’s chill— An amateur with no escape. Purpose should keep hands From pen, sword, or crown, Yet I failed. The crown gleams, And I stride into emptiness, Sore and bare. When we lose, We invent meaning. #vss365 #poem #poetry

I am far too eager To get out of this place. I long for a land Where there is One true calm. For now, I crave What you have, So jealousy And anger mix While witnessing The ease with which You handle life. I feel I have not evolved. I am stagnant, Clinging to old ways. #vss365 #poem #poetry
