Feeling Lighter

finally i will fly
i can touch for real
this blue sky
this feeling overwhelms
as i lay suspended
in limbo
emotions and memories
from a not so distant past
broken hearts and empty bottles
all those heavy worries
and forever saying sorries
blurs away when i close my eyes
this blue sky i float
lightens my sorrow
fades away my sorrow
this dream i dream
leaves no tomorrow
to wake up again
my dream will forever last
no more pain to bury
no more deviations from sober
this limbo takes me over
finally i will not fall
i can touch for real
this blue sky
this feeling overwhelms
sorrows shall disappear fast
my dream will forever last

tired thoughts drifting abound
racing home
body stay still lay bound
left alone
among thousands around
blending into black and white
they live their dreams of tonight
blending into this background
those thousands fade away
a text message
a single line to my phone
blurs my world around
leaves me spinning
in a vortex
of my make

with wide eyes every dawn i wake
when the morning wind beckons
and blows open my doors
it takes me hand in hand and walk
side by side through new doors
shows dreams sweeter than before
because i’m a forever daydreamer
wrapped tightly in sweet memories
i fly around new cloud castles
my friend the wind is my redeemer
it tells me new stories
secrets passed only lips to ears
opens every vestige of my mind
it wakes my ever sleepy muse
sets up an easel i never refuse
makes me work on a blank canvas
to paint my ethereal visions
guided by my magical brush
my muse now awake and smiling
she sends me colors in the wind
sealed with a silent kiss
Whisper
you:
one sweet evening
by the river shore
whispered sweet wordings
eyes filled with adore
i:
whispers in the air
dreams i linger there
by that river shore
feeling time for more
To Fly Without Wings
i woke one autumn morning
a crispy golden feeling
in the air a new dawn flows
and by my window wind blows
trees sway bare with leaves falling
on crystal water sending ripples
sparkling drops splatter around
distorting a mirror of sky above
i look up at the autumn sky
tiny speckles are moving away
in a file of dots further away
i do realize what i do see
swans are finally flying high
i was bound to fly i do agree
if only i had grown wings
that favor was not gifted to me
but i am not sad even a tad
a gift born out of the kernel
is snuggled safe and warm
by me is my love so eternal
springs are for love newborn
nourished in summer days
in autumns when the leaves fall
love grows strong cozy and warm
i look at this spreading field
coated in endless auburn leaves
rustling playfully to wind they yield
i guess the earth feels warm tonight
in its coat of auburn leaves
beside me is my gift my love
my beauty my wings of freedom
the only crowned one in my kingdom
in this new dawn of autumn
i relish every feeling golden
when wind echoes in playful blows
and come up knocking at my door
for wings i don’t crave anymore
because my love makes me believe
i can trace the path a leaf weave
i can fly higher without wings
Winter Moon
look down at me winter moon so blue
these auburn forests dare hide thee
so look from behind their rustling twigs
come back enshroud me in your magic
we made hay in the autumn
our barns are full thanks good fortune
those fields we toiled are now bare
our frozen lake is now crystal clear
my barn is warm but my soul is cold
so with emptiness i tread this land
violin in hand and a tune in heart
to spend a lonely night by the lake
i like how it mirrors your silvery hair
and etched within ice is your smile
my forever childish soul does care
about winters long ago past
oh my moon how so fast
this emptiness shroud my soul
these shadows cloud my mind
with frozen tears i look at your sky
with heaviness i set my violin to chin
and i will strum this saddening melody
that i can’t play at harvest nights
oh winter moon so blue
come back to earth
my violin tugs for you
come back to earth
my strings tugs for you
so again let us play on ice
let me connect eye to eye
for a kiss oh i can’t reach
beauty oh why so shy
dear you are so high
The Beach Run
i want to run with you like a feather
hands clasped tightly together
these countless beaches shall inspire
words of love just set in your name
your sweet looks from the corner
of your eyes i shall cherish forever
footsteps in the sandy beaches
i love the sight of our winding ways
though they get washed the sea
love it because it’s by you and me
when darkness give way to light
i want to watch the sun rise
bask it it’s heavenly glory
with you by my side
my beating heart ever wants you near
i love my dream with no sadness or fear
forever is the word i want to whisper
forever i will be yours
beauty you are eternally sweet
every glance at me shall shrink deep
in to my heart which is fine
because forever you shall be mine
you are my guiding light
the only candle by my side
you are the stars i hide my pocket
my feelings flowing from every socket
is etched with your name
love shall be forever same
Phoenix Rises
one day i shall give way
one day shall be my end
nothing will forever last
the end it comes so fast
one day i shall give way
fire turns to ashes come the day
embers shall dress this night sky
again for the final time i will fly
. . .
when embers dress this night sky
when falling ashes turn to dust
from those ashes shall i rise
a new flame will be in my eyes
i will fly again shining bright
glide between snowy mountains high
in flames i shall set my path alight
inspire thousands with flaming might
as ancient embers fade
old dreams shall wane
when the phoenix rise
new dreams will arise
Yet Another Poem In Vain
my poetry is stale like
meat of my ischemic heart
ripped by yet another last strike
but why i still pen this poetic art
because i gave love another chance
and lost my last bit of sanity
again let myself dance that dance
and lose myself from reality
so i write about tears like i did before
but this time the game is different
these are for the one i still adore
even though i can’t bear this torment
endless tears come easy this time
again i shall do my salty ocean worth
just to drown once more in my crime
of sweet hate and rip my heart forth
should write some words about my lost heart
stale meat yet tireless till time to depart
pumps my soul, yeah still does it’s part
oh faithful beat, but don’t tear me apart
i wrote of loss, yet another poem in vain
this ink will disappear when it does rain
but rain will not wash away this black stain
of a dying heart beating in a painful refrain
Departure On Roads To Insanity (A Poem In 3 Parts)
–[DEPARTURE]is it time for our departure on these roads?–
all this sane brain
washed in cold rain
leaves only disdain
and dreadful pain
where is the miracle drug
which can kill this bug
of memories hard to avert
and cure this swollen hurt
when it rain it does rain so hard
all left in hand is this final card
and nothing but a throbbing heart
and an intense desire to depart
–[ROADS]are these the roads we tread searching for sanity?–
memories all condemned fake
with no leftover desires to make
salvation becomes the last word in mind
so are there anymore roads left to find
roads where pure joy fills a pained soul
to drown in desire of a new found goal
to wake pure everyday as a newborn foal
and immerse in a drama with a new role
roads to salvage wounded pride
where a cure to all ailments reside
where love is boundless and wide
and can clean this despair from inside
–[INSANITY]did those roads lead us to our lost sanity?–
when this path of reason disintegrate
this train of thought finally will derail
down the drain flows sanity
with all of yesterday’s vanity
sense of logic is now failing
in this vortex it’s sailing
memories now fail to arrive
through this waves they dive
flashes of different lives
colors of all radiant hues
leaving behind only this insanity
an illusion of alternative reality
in a different dimension
beyond comprehension
this path of reason had disintegrated
this train of thought finally derailed
Lullaby In Death
sweetest love linger so calm
so pale, the ethereal silence
stoned emotions in sleep
your face so icy cold
sleep my beauty
sleep in my hold
warmth you gave not
cold you gave a lot
rest in eternal dreams dear love
to death your cadence consoled
silent light from treetop highs
let it graze your quiescent frame
let the depths of earthen grains
take hold of your crystalline gaze
sleep my beauty
dream in ethereal calm
in your silence to to my hold
see the images death conjured
Boy Like A Butterfly (and the critters of his mind)
in this open fields where grass grow tall
sheathed within pods of silver white
are critters of vivid colors and small
sleeping, waiting for the day of flight
while dewdrops adorn the morning grass
he hums the tune of a early butterfly
flute music in harmony with a dancing lass
while around her swaying arms morning birds fly
with spring flowers blooming like lace
growing with grace on the earth’s face
colors of a butterfly is in the melody he sings
his vibe is on a story how critters grow wings
he hears the whispering voice of lusty wind
as he watches her grace playing with his mind
within his mind’s eye her tricks runs deep inside
silently pushing him to the brink, senses collide
the critters of his mind, encrusted in a silver sheath
sway in harmony with the tune he choose to play
silently her charm is what conjure love from beneath
critters grew wings in tune with his melody this day
Feelings For Rain
another rainy day to be wasted inside
still wonder why the raindrops splatter
making puddles in the clay roads outside
should have drenched some other land that matter
boredom can’t be cured by a bleary cursor
of a dusty old computer screen
rain calls for eerie sense of a looser
when the sun would have called for a ball team
they would have played out in the sun
with laughter and heartfelt smiles to shine
it was just ok to have some fun
but this drizzle broke dreams and more plans than fine
sun should have called the beauties out
should have dragged them to a park on a date
rain broke plans made them complain and doubt
made another day wasted on bed with a wet taste
Thought I Was (Deceiving Grace)
over the valley is the cooling breeze
but all over the sky is written your deceiving grace
in my fading love craving for your embrace
i remember your dreadful promise of silence
in your embrace i wanted to cuddle tight
thought you are my knight in shining armour
but you made me feel like falling leaves of autumn wind
memories of last summer is now a bitter taste
i thought i was the queen when we played the board game
but you mated my queen with your knights and pawns
never i thought my fate was written in the sixty four squares
never did i realize the board game will be played on my life
i thought i was the queen of the card deck
but you held all your aces tight to your chest
i built a card castle and you shattered it with a poke
all i thought was it is not for real and it was just a joke
i thought i was the queen of your heart when we walked on the beach
it was all i wanted to believe when we held our hands tight
i searched for warmth in your embrace when cold winds blew
never i believed blowing winds echoed the coldness in you
i thought i was the queen when we played in the moonlit barn
you was my bard in my court of golden hay and ripe corn
in a deep voice you sang a sad song of swans and a betrayed princess
never i dreamt in your chords was written my soon to be empty fate
over the valley the breeze is getting colder
it is the autumn winds echoing the coming winter
my crown shattered with summer i wanted to last forever
all i can do now is bury my heart in freezing snow
footsteps we walked are now swallowed by the salty sea
now i see for real all your promises were fake
as i watch the setting sun slowly but disappear
i see all over the sky is written your deceiving grace
Hallucinating in the Midnight Dreams
she thrashes the sheets beside me
acidic froth spews from her deepest pits
flaming birds circling above is all i see
i knew what i was looking at, i summoned my wits
she watches me with bleary eyes
as the world comes smoking down
damnation, all above me flies the lies
crumbling scenes of desperation all around
entwined around the sheets lay our calm
as her acidic spew burns my throat deep
soothing like a whisper of death, she takes my palm
no more regrets now as my soul weep
(more…)
Sleep Baby Sleep (for a sleeping beauty)
nighttime birds are singing tonight
deep within dream deep dream light
calling you to join them fly aloft
sleep baby sleep sound sleep soft
your water is cold because you forgot to heat
your lunch is cold because it’s unmade
got a hell lot to study but your resolve is wane
you are hungry you don’t know how to be sane
the sun was high all along and you are still undone
got parties to attend and still you are in bed
switch that bugging cell phone off
they shall not bother you anymore
they have been ringing you around the clock
those buggers need to get a life and sleep
why the hell can’t you lay little bit more
the bed is warm and outside it looks cold
you are lazy as your fluffy pillow
you are warm in your wooly blanket
was down since twelve hours or is it more
day ahead is hard and got no idea what to do
if you get up you have to cook but you are weak
also will have to study more and it’s long overdue
so better sleep more and sleep tight
dream more wonder why can’t you sleep forever
nighttime birds are singing tonight
deep within dream deep dream light
calling you to join them fly aloft
sleep baby sleep sound sleep soft
