Comfort In You

Beauty rises in darkness.
Strength prevails in the midst of a storm.
Courage enlightens us when doubt is near.
We struggle to find our face in fear.
My heart will beat with every breathe I take.
In this storm, I find comfort knowing
All that is known,
All that is felt,
Is easily unblemished when you are here.

Confines

Defeated by boundaries
I give utterly and love detrimentally
To my core, all I endure
Shows remorse forevermore
Where is the line drawn?
Simply, I am who I am
My heart easily devoured
By every waking hour
Madness remains a constant
Filling my discourse with piles of sadness
I give utterly and love detrimentally
With all I do, and all I am
Standing unbalanced in this tainted land
Tipping on foresight
Kissed by death in hindsight
Would my course remain
If I knew this in vein
Or, is it in me to contain.

A Moment Wasted

It is cold in your warmth
All alone
In the middle of the night
Laying beside you
I lie awake waiting
For you to notice.
I dance at the thought
Of you, surrendering your love
Putting down your gloves
Knowing
Tender is my touch
Sincere is my heart
Blessed is my soul.
Wishing you knew
From the start
All these moments
Lost at the part.

The Journey to Perfection

The perfection of imperfection...
Leads us to a beauty...
Not ruffled on the surface...
But muddied deep within...
We have a pleasing desire...
To seek things with noticeable fire...
Though the flame will easily desist...
The chance to never exist...
Keeps us struggling along...
For a glimpse of where we belong...
Knowing that all along...
We are dancing to someone else's song...
Forgetting what we know to be true...
Allowing ourselves to be guided by nature...
We find all that we needed...
In the imperfect perfect.

At The End There is Light

Through the dark I see the light...

Filling within are sorrows of joys...

A morning of shine basking in the sun... 

Trying to take a moment to freeze the day...

Forever making it special in some sweet way...

As clouds of rain disperse...

Parting ways to mother's earth...

I forgive the unknown...

Trying cautiously to seek out the known...

Taking breaths to fill the space...

No longer feeling heartache on heartache...

New days bring old beginnings filled with new endings...

Living a moment in suspense...

To unravel the discovery of surprise...

Never fall to your demise...

Run gracefully to the path you cannot control...

For in darkness there always comes the light. 

Captive Mania

I'm a hostage to my desire...

Running, hiding, I'm always found...

No chance at overcoming...

I succumb only to feel numb...

Simply because I'm wrapped in a notion....

Funded by a greed where I need your devotion...

Swallowed whole by thoughts...

Drowning in pains of never knowing...

Chances taken, I must be mistaken...

Our chances, a moment passes...

Fleeting from romance's dances.

Hushed by a fear...

To draw you near...

Keep you here...

Makes me bare...

Trapped in a mind...

Displaced by an unspoken bond...

In the silence I feel your captive mania.

Holding me down...

An attempt to escape...

Delivers me further...

Begging under the surface...

I want you to stake your claim...

Tell me how you hunger...

Show me how you please...

In the chaos I am captive to your mania.

Guardian Angel

On the sidelines I watch you...

I see the light in your eyes...

The hope in your words...

The pain in your soul.

Guarded by a wall...

Afraid of the fall...

You hide from us all...

When will this stall?

No pain should be a regret...

No past should be a threat...

No fear should be a detriment...

No love should be a reject.

A guiding soul you bare a toll...

Hiding from all those who stole..

A piece of you to give to them...

Selfishly they dug your grave.

Time will wash away the pain...

Truth will keep you from going insane...

My love will melt away the disdain... 

Your guardian angel is how I remain.
