self reflection (Remove filter)
Always with you
I am here, connected to you
Hiding in the corner
Growing darker as the light grows stronger
Formed shape, cajoined to you
I follow you in the street or lane
Looming dark in mirrored form, defined
Ever present, twinned by shape
Creeping on the floor or wall, a mirror of your soul
Ever here, your silent brother
Shaped in your darkest desires
My friend, your friend, a soundless mus...

Reflecting
What is my heart saying?
nothing I’m not already tired of hearing
Make something new
Build something unique
Start from the ground up, no stealing…
A hug can only help the healing process, not make it
Can I even do this?
Am I even capable of success?
My previous accomplishments taunt me,
With the apparent answer to that question.
Nah, that ain’t me Chief...

Golden Boy with such courage
How do you do it?
How do you know them?
Peoples faces turn when you walk
The talk is more than what you say
As you strut with such glory
Golden Boy with such praise
How did you get there?
Why do people love you?
You’re admired by many
People strive to live the life
You’ve made it golden Boy
Golden Boy why the facade?
Wh...

Once
I don't know my way,
I've always walked blind,
dazed by the light,
bound to the dark,
heart tattered and torn,
mind vacant and worn.
The soul had a song once
but I lost it in the fog.
Alone now,
I wander
forever forlorn,
the bird long flown,
my hope echoing blue
shatters on the sun.

Sane × Insane
Why do you expect so much good in other people
Why do you pray so much under every steeple
How can you be ok to be disappointed all the time
And hurt yourself with so much hope inside
You’ll never learn your lesson if you try to be blind
To The bad side of people you try to hide
And let them inside your heart again
Is it a crime to let them cause you so much pain
To the poi...

Reflection
The waves come and go
And the sea remains the sea
The reflections come and go
And the mirror remains the mirror
Joy and misery come and go
What remains is what is me

Reflections
Reflections...
times and places and being....
always there...
always just out of reach...
glimpses flitting between lenses...
shimmering a way off
in the play of the light in your eyes...
reflecting back
from the window to my soul...

It’s okay
in our own ways
we all break
apart sometimes
when we’re apart
sometimes
I break
I saw the light one evening
walking home
what was I doing
lost, there
when I should have been
with you
just you
It’s okay
in our own ways
we all break
apart sometimes
Walking home
I face myself fully
face all I’ve done
And tell myself
it’s okay
it’s alright
we all break

A Noun in White Open Space
A noun all alone in the white open space is at risk,
if it doesn't know its own definition or purpose.
Without knowing its identity, this noun may search for a verb.
Once it finds this verb, it may begin to become active.
After it is active, it may come to dwell upon passive.
Should this be the case, it may call itself just a subordinate clause.
Still without the sense of cause, ...
