Dust to dusk sings, the setting sun sinks,
Dimming the horizon in a blaze of blue, orange and yellow.
The memories of what once was
Now dance the tides of the ocean.
Bring me my vessel, that I may unshackle it from these shores,
The seas rise to meet and I will rage against the storm.
But even as the winds cry and waves roar,
Unfettered lands will come at dawn.
Just a little open poem about moving out of my home and away from my friends, the chaos that inevitably followed and a hopeful attitude to the future. Cheers to my friends who gave me new insights to the world around me, I'll cherish those memories :cheers:

She's in the stars in a whole different universe
While I'm watching from the edge of my dusty war-torn planet
Her shine radiates throughout space, giving off a saintly glow
I can see, but I cannot touch,
For comets and asteroids are blocking my reach
She's in the stars in a whole different universe
I don't have access to her universe, and never will.
-
high up above the clouds
above the stars aeons in the making
sucked through a turbulent wormhole of warm emotions
blurring and condensing into a miasma of coloured streams
feeling the pulsing energy of the archetypal soul
breathing into me making me whole
glistening and soaked in a wash of the cosmic sea
only to fall
fall
into a deep sleep
am I dreaming?

Wrote this while I was a little stressed at work.
Wisps of steam fluff,
Clouds of milk pluming,
A cup of good stuff,
Keeps me from fuming.
And another one...
There once was a spider named Murtle,
She rode on a friendly green turtle.
They drank up a flagon and slept on a wagon,
when they woke they'd forgotten what happened.
I got bored at work and jotted those down :dancingcow:

Wrote this for the people who don't fit in.
Little ghost boy,
With your see-through eyes,
With your soundless cries,
Made of all the stars in the night skies,
I see you.
Violence sits alongside the saint,
And when you disembarked
Others died fearing the dark,
But you came through unmarked,
Leaving life behind.
Now feel the anger,
A wooden stake they grew,
Threatening to cut you through,
To take your life anew,
If you give in.
Little ghost boy,
Reflection of the hate
Of those whom you would liberate,
Do not fall under the weight,
I'm here for you.
Come hide from the light,
They don't understand
That under the sea and beneath the land
Truth alone holds out her hand
And waits.
-
I climb into you, with my claws like knives,
I fall threw the dark, ripping up your inside,
I know that you've got me.
There is no where to go.
Each way I run I crash into the Whole.
Collapsing within, yet we're still looking out,
flowing like water over life's doubt,
Drowning in wisdom,
Fighting threw fun,
Trying to forget,
That we know we are one.

Is it cheating to post a previously-written poem that fits my current mood?
------
I can vividly recall
When I was wee, petite, or small;
My mother warning me that time
To play outside was in decline.
"Fifteen minutes left" she'd say
"You'd best get on with no delay!"
To me the words were meaningless —
Might just as well be "snib o bhess."
I parsed the grammar fine enough;
To hear her speaking wasn't tough.
It's just that with no reference point,
No mechan'sm with which to join
One moment's passing to the next;
No way to place within context
The heft, the mass, of one minute
How much or not to fit in it,
It mattered not at all to me
If I had fifteen, ten or three.
The future wasn't, nor the past,
Just the ever-stretching, ever vast
Present moment, always here;
Rich, untainted by the smear
Of the limits and confines
That comes with knowing about time.

Concrete Dreams
Crumble in light
With echoes of screams
And impressions of flight
Falling to dust
As you open your eyes
Turning to rust
Revealing the lies
He lives in the seams
Between awake and asleep
Among the death of the dreams
And the rising deep
The King of Ash
And of the Silver Chains
Adds to his stash
The dreams remains
So when night does fall
His kingdom reigns
The dust will call
You back again
Down below
Your time outran
Behold his show
All Hail The Sandman
-
Through time and space
I try to catch and embrace
that spark divine
encased within our earthen bodies supine
yet find no trace
no clues in this dream like place
that is the world
into which we are hurled
with no map or explanation
to find our way through life's web without hesitation
so many questions have me vexed
as I pass from one day to the next
but the world can not be found in thought
it is far beyond any concept taught
so I finally come to rest
feeling I have finally past the test
until thinking then flickers into action
and I am drawn back into the world of distraction
-
In all the breadth of time
For the smallest reasons your mind
Has been lead across this word,
And now, lead back through all you've ever heard
Lead to who you truly be
Lead through the confusion, lead to me.
Through this that you read,
There is something hidden like a seed,
It will send its root out in your mind
Like a weed it will unfold, unwind
Sprout and grow and then unbind
The truth that you already know.
You know that we all must go,
Go and leave every thing, every one,
All we've ever lost and all we've won
We all will go, and then
Beyond the grasp of 'where' and 'when'
You and I will meet again.
Time is Uniform,
The tail was bitten by the wyrm
Before the dark and before the light
Before the day and before the night
Before earth before the birth
We existed.
I knew I felt what was true,
I felt all of time through and through
I felt all of love and I felt you too
I put pen to paper now
Knowing in a million years somehow
It will fall into your hands.
It will fall into your precious hands.

Is there sense for life under pretense that there is a plan for a loveless phantom whose withered tears bleed could there be a quintessence does his life have essence?
-
Do I exist
It's like I'm not a part of the human race
I must be something else not human
No one listens
What would happen if I started listening
Being from another world
What would I hear
I'm going to start listening
And find what I need to know
So I can be at peace
-
Space reduced to memory
A scorched plane devoured by time
The implosion comes without warning
But for those whom need it most
-
You act out of character
When your're not yourself
What made you lose yourself anyway?
It might have been the anger in you
That was all wrong
It might have been listening to all the wrong people
So be yourself
Listen to your conscience
You've been away for far too long
Trapped in a cage
Built by negative beliefs
If you choose not to believe the lies of others
And believe you can achieve
Anything you desire to happen
Start creating the life
Only you could ever ask for
Believe in yourself

Because I flew too high the wax gave way
So to the Earth I crash in hysterical grace
Just to drown in doubt with rhetorical praise
From the voice in my head plotting how to save face
-
Unquenchable thirst
Like a never ending curse
Deep enough to make me burst
Nothing else comes first
A burning passion in my heart
Nothing will set me apart
-
I'm so frustrated im so confused a friend needed help and I'm of no use
Explain the reason tell me your rules,my heart is torn my fury is exasperated
How can they be so cruel.
If I can understand their game I'll abide by their rules!
All I wanted was to show care but they took me for a follow!
They shut me out so take care my friend!
Someone out there is waiting to hold your hand!Take care my friend!

Oh autocorrect :) The times you pop up. (Nice poem btw)
-
-
you don't know who to believe
but there's something you've belived in
all your life
it's not what others might think
it might be your own intuition
but really it's your own dreams
become lucid tonight
reconnect with that part of yourself
and start living to your full potential
-
In the living room plays movies of ignorance
While the kitchen plays tricks on hunger
Not to be outdone though is the bedroom
Where a lack of sex renders both irrelevant
-
The air doesn't move in this room,
the nice shirts will not be worn.
The guitar laughs more than it sings these days.
At night the boxsprings creak
as the bed grows heavy on one side.

Everyone else's drama
Is not your drama
You've got a life to live
Stay mad for as long as needed
But let it go
After all this
You've got to stand up for yourself
