Breathe, Eric.

Breathe.

Breathe, before the storm sets in

Breathe, before the anger takes over

Breathe, before you lose control.

You don't have to be the monster 

But you have a long way to go 

If you want to calm the storms 

Because the rage 

Does not give up so easily.

These battles are fought one at a time 

We must fight for happiness 

A battle, to keep the p...

Upon trying to measure

The universe, the infinity itself 

The sheer impossibilities that will 

Inevitably present themselves.

Love is, as immeasurable

As the cosmos itself.

The heart is open 

And the mind is free 

Just remember to breathe 

It's all a bit of fun.

A play on life and love 

Experience it all 

And laugh 

Laugh into eternity

The only voice inside my head 

Is my own 

But the echoes 

Of my screams 

As the noise dies down 

And I'm left in my own silence 

It's painful 

It's numb 

I'm sick of the negativity

I can't stop hearing it 

I'm screaming at myself constantly 

Like I'm walking around an empty house 

With a can of gasoline 

Soaking every square inch 

Before I prepare myself

All I hear is the tinnitus ring 

And a fan 

My heart is beating

But I don't feel alive 

Numb to the pain of being alive 

I assert a separate role

This body laid on the laminate floor 

But my spirit is elsewhere 

Exit the body 

And enter the stratosphere 

Watching a planet 

Peopled with busy lives 

And anxious thoughts 

The pain of lost lives and broken hearts...

It's funny

How I start to recede 

And lose my voice

Whenever I realize how far I am

From being one of them

I forget how to speak

I forget how to interact

I tell myself I am not one of them

Though I live among them

My family is lost 

Lost somewhere in the void of time

Lost somewhere I can't return

I don't belong anywhere

And yet 

I know I belong everywhere

I can feel the whole universe right now

Buzzing under my skin 

I can feel the inner workings 

The greater creation going on 

Flowing through my bloodstream 

I can feel my nervous system 

Connecting my body to the cosmos 

I can feel it all 

I can feel an eternity of light and dark 

The infinite space between 

Being breathed into my lungs

I can feel all of the consci...

It just feels like 

Socially 

I am so small 

My size doesn't help 

I barely have a voice 

Nobody hears me 

Because my words are of no value 

Or maybe I talk too much 

But I can't help it 

When I'm happy 

And my social battery is charged 

I get loud

Which I much prefer 

Over my quiet, introspective self 

The one that hides in his shell 

Afraid of letting...

A hollow silence

In the vast expansion

The dark void beckons

And the unknown stalks

Time stands still here 

On the edge of it all

Staring into oblivion

The end is near

And it is inevitable

But do not fear

As all things come into being

All things must come

To an end

To begin again

Ever changing

Ever growing

This is the Great Journey.

I know I'm not weak

But I don't get to see my strength

As I have no reason to fight

So I look inside myself

And fight the inner battles

The ones for peace

For happiness.

Information is too unreliable

No sources can be trusted

So I avoid the outside world's struggles

Because how can you pick a side

Based on all the lies being told

To make the other side look bad.

I'm sitting on the edge of the universe

Dipping my toes into the cosmos

Feeling the warmth radiate upward

All of these souls in this universe

And they can't see how lucky we are.

Free your mind from thought

Get lost in this moment

Find your free will 

And walk a path 

That branches off

In the direction of happiness

You're exhausted

Hanging on by a thread

Finding more reasons to let go.

You're losing faith in yourself

Losing faith in the universe.

But I'm here to tell you,

You have within you

A burning spirit,

And you have the strength to fight.

Go- ignite your flame, 

Set your soul on fire

And fight! 

The Universe wills it! 

We all will it!

Sometimes it feels like

The universe is very attuned to me

When all the others in the world

Have the same voice that I do

I watch my words get written

And sent out into the world

And I know that it's felt

So I need not speak 

But then sometimes

I find myself being silenced

As I recognize negative words

That I might have said

Without considering

Because we all need someone

You are a Warrior of Light.

You can restore balance 

And bring peace.

Close your eyes.

Look into your heart.

Blinded

By a new-found rage

Fuelled by a hatred 

For all that he had come to understand 

About humans

And this place, once called home,

Corrupted long ago

Tainted by the foulest souls

Who had long since lost their way

Too far gone to be saved

He took to the skies 

And unleashed his fury 

Unable to control himself

He would destroy it all

But just before he ...

I'm only here once

In this particular time

Within this flesh and bone structure

And I only have so much time with it

I will make all that I can make of it

I will find love

I will find peace

I will be happy

And I will scream it to the stars

That we are only here

To open our hearts!

We are here to share our souls!

To reconnect with our spiritual families!

I often find myself having these

Screaming matches inside my head

The Darkness vs the Light

Sometimes it feels

Like I'm close to oblivion

And other times it's like

I'm off the deep end

No saving me.

But then I have a day

Where the Light wins

And let me tell you,

Those days

I could challenge the Gods.

My subconscious 

Is focused on a goal 

One which transcends this flesh 

Death is but a transformation 

But the rebirth that follows 

Is where growth lies 

Happiness found 

In the journey 

Because the destination 

Is an ending

That comes all too soon 

Ground yourself 

Take a breath

And remember the universal truth 

Of why you've taken this form

One day

There won't be anything left

Your body will die

But the consciousness will live on

This planet may survive a while longer

But everything dies and changes

Stop wasting time being angry

Let go of that hate

There's no reason for unhappiness

This moment may not last

Don't let that cause any anxieties

It was never in your control

Falling short

Bending

Breaking

Will anything I do

Ever be enough?

Or do I keep failing 

Never quite making it 

Right before the end 

I crumble to dust 

I'm small 

And within this cosmos 

I'm struggling to find 

Any reason why 

Anybody should

waste their time 

On me 

Will I ever be enough

Will I ever be enough?

It's hard being an adult 

Responsibilities like boulders 

Tied to my feet 

And I'm sinking beneath the surface 

Losing the thing I need most 

Social interactions 

I need to be close to the people I love 

Because they give me strength 

Enough that I feel I can take on 

The toughest of challenges 

They spark the flame 

Which is more like a wildfire

When the silence came 

And my breath fell short 

I forgot what it was all for 

I let go of all that was eating me alive 

And within the peace that followed 

Came a voice

So softly spoken

Whispering a reminder

That happiness is found within

The heart is but a gateway

Our passions are the boat

And how we navigate the seas

And guide those lost along the way

In one moment

The world turned upside down

And all of the light was taken

Only darkness

And then the pain came flooding in

Like a tsunami, washing away

I can only hope 

Time still heals all wounds

Because this gaping hole in my heart

Might never be fixed

But the blood dried long ago

That I carved out my own heart 

And threw it into the sea 

I can only tell you 

That I'm sorry 

For not being more than I am

Lost inside my thoughts 

Lost in emotion 

Counting grains of sand 

Telling stories

Of the universe inside my head

I watched as the sun fell 

Over the horizon 

And as the darkness came 

I understood 

That all things come to an end 

Light turns to dark 

Dark to light 

Life to death 

Death to life 

Balance will always be restored 

And the pendulum 

Continues to swing.

I saw a version of myself 

In the mirror 

Only caught by my peripheral vision 

But the dark circles around his eyes 

Showed me what lurks 

In the shadows of my mind 

Not representative of who I am

But all the pain, the hurt that I've seen

It's easy to fall 

Into a corrupted state of being

I've sat among the stars 

In the vacuum of space

Breathing stardust into the cosmos 

Creating entire galaxies 

With like-minded creators 

Whispered sweet words

Through the void 

And had them echo back 

With no hope of reaching you 

I drift among the floating rocks 

And imagine myself 

Having not existed

And see just how nothing changes 

I've made no impact

Suddenly the world fell silent

As I stood on the edge of oblivion

Staring through the blackest void

Into the eyes of what I now suspect

To be the Creator we know as God

I do not fear death

I do not feel any negativity from this being

But pure love and compassion

For I am but a part

Of the molecular structure

As is each part of the cosmos.

My home cannot be found

My soul guides me where I need to be

In order to shine a light in the dark

For life is all one

Every living thing

Works together

Most don't see it

And won't ever know

But the beauty of life

Does not lie solely in love

But in all emotions

In all of the struggles

We endure pain

And come out stronger 

We feel broken

But we are not

For we are each a piece

A piece meant to be put back in place

A wonderfully chaotic place

Of balance

Between all the good

And all of the bad

All the ups and downs

The highs and lows

And I let it all go

Life is an experience to be shared

Lessons to be learned

And moments to be enjoyed

Enjoy this moment

And let the past go.

Forgive others

And most of all

Forgive yourself.

Of flesh to spirit

I've got a heart that beats inside my chest 

And feet that want to walk 

A mind that wanders beyond the skies

But my thoughts are chained and locked

I need access, I'm losing track

Of all the masks I've worn and broken

My mind is shattered like heated glass

I no longer recall the words I've spoken

I need release, I'm lost and scarred

This is the beginning

Of a story with no conclusion,

A tale of souls, lost,

In search of a solution

A tragedy, a comedy,

A loop that never ends,

Same mistakes, made over,

'Til we all can make amends

In this vicious circle,

Few find their peace inside,

Hidden in the chaos,

Unseen by the naked eye

I close my eyes

And leave this place

I no longer belong- or rather

I never did 

But I've only just realized

I can call no place home, and yet

I'm home wherever I go

I'm not lost, I never was

It is a lonely existence

To spend an eternity 

Wandering the cosmos

But I meet many souls along the way

And they all remind me of myself 

In the best of ways

Maybe I'm a horrible person

Who deserves to be burned alive

In search of my self

He was always so light-hearted and free

I sit in silent solitude

And let my spirit drift

Across the universe, the cosmos

And let my paradigm shift

There's no greater feeling

Than the freedom which I find

When I let go of all attachment

Find my soul, and lose my mind

And my heart feels so connected

To each and everything I see 

Because, like looking in a mirror 

I am all, and all is me.

To shed light and find the paths 

Of lost souls who cannot find their way

My strength is infinite

And need a little light to find my way 

But each time

And brighter than ever before

I am

Overwhelmed.

Life really has taken it's toll

On my body, my mind, my heart and soul.

I'm a mess

A 365-car pile-up

One for each day I fall asleep at the wheel

And lost control of my own body

I am exhausted.

Fighting to regain the strength I once had

For the spirit is still there

It is my only weapon

My sword.

And I carry it with the highest self-respect

Eric 

Don't fall apart 

You're not broken 

Just in pain 

You don't deserve

The way you punish and torture yourself

It's okay to cry

It's okay to feel

But don't beat yourself up

Remember

To shine your light

And when it won't turn on

Don't panic

Don't stress

Whatever the reason

It will pass

And you'll find your way again

Alone and scared

More than just flesh

I gave my soul

At least a piece

Now you should sleep

And get some rest

Or rather that you,

Souls of the living

Trapped inside mortal bodies

Don't be afraid

And we can guide the way

For years to come

No fear, but Sorrow stays

A loyal friend

Who knows no end 

You will see brighter days

You'll feel the pain

You'll not do well

Unless you stand and fight

And all that you have known

You'll find your way
