Dizzy

Tonight the world stood still, While I danced alone in a circle. The clouds have come and gone, As the moon sits on its high chair. Glowing like the brightest night light, Through the crisp dark air. Tonight the world stood still, While I smiled and laughed. The breeze blew through my hair, And brought the smell of night. The aroma brushed my face, I knew everything would be alright. Tonight the world stood still, As my dizzy head has finally given in. I glare at the sky as a tear falls, Falls from my tired eye. Only to know that behind my smile, I have grown. Grown to be truly alone.

Tread softly

The colored Shades of night
Dance across my eyes as they rest open in the pitch black.

While the songs of the restless birds Ring my tired ear.

A soft whisper calls out for me.

Im unsure.

The gentle touch of what feels like a rigid hand

Shuffles down my arm.

Here goosebumps have made themselves at home.

Balance

A barely mangled crate,

Full of the remains of inner beasts and convictions of emotions dwell within me.

Petite segments slip away through the damaged cracks and are lost.

Every so often a moment passes.

Here floats by a warped piece misplaced from another spirit.

It's picked up and stored where your own morsel had gone astray and you hold it dear.

Elsewhere there might be the other shadow looking to fill its own nothingness.

It's own missing fragment.

Perhaps they will find my own meandering by.

Under the incandescent light of the invisibly strung stars,

That also paints the night sky nesting  outside my fractured window...

Might be beaming upon them too.

Daryl boom day!

For those of you who missed it I wrote a poem for #walkingdeadwednesday . So for #darylboomday I decided to write a part 2. Part 2 being possibly how Daryl feels going into season 2. So im posting them both here it just seems right to have them together. I hope you enjoy them!

Daryl

In silence I sit.
Looking At the once occupied land.
Not a sound to be heard, As the pink awning of daylight fades to black.
Crickets lost in the horizon keep me at attention.
My grip gets tense as I clench my bow in my unshakable hand.
Ready at a moments notice, the only way to prevail. Minutes slither past, slow, just as the sweat trickling down my face.
I feel the warmth of a hand grace my shoulder,
But only for an instant.
Could it have been....
I quickly glimpse behind me. No one is there.
I continue to sit and watch the emptiness,
That was once filled with the essence of life.
I count each breath while waiting for daybreak,
Each one moving me closer to another day of existence. Awaiting day..... hoping it will be one without any more loss. In the darkness I see shadows.
Shadows of my past.
I miss him.
I admit this to myself.
I miss him.


Daryl 2

Everything seems hushed.
The orange glimmer from the sun blankets the murkiness that helped harbor the unknown.
Something about my mood feels off beat.
Peeling away the time
While watching a new day break.
A spark ignites something within me.
There is no more haze.
No more shadows commanding me on what kind of man to be.
No one left clinging to the key. The key to restraining me from being me.
My grip gives way from my steady hand as I realize...
The choice is now mine.
In my thoughts I know,
I know his blood still runs fierce and with madness.
This won't stop me.
Its time to shift gears.
Turnover my beaten path,
Take a course of my own.
As I start to ride I can feel the warmth from the light of the sun pulsing through my veins.
The wild air brushing through each strand of my hair.

A new season for survival begins.

Speak

Every time I speak your name,
Or hear your voice Its still the same.
Because every time you come around,
I dig myself further in to the ground.

For what you feel is not a test,
Yet somehow your heart is always at rest.
I still get angry when you get near,
No matter what I hold you dear.

To this day you have no clue,
Who you are, or what it is you do.
Why it is that its so hard to speak to you,
For you have yet to learn how to be talked too.

Cause every time I speak your name,
Or hear your voice its still the same.
Because every time you come around,
I dig myself further and further in to the ground.

View from within

A cracked window pane bleeds,
The wood holding it has died,
A shattered image of myself
Reflects through the misshapen pieces of glass.
I look down upon the desolate streets from my cluttered room.
The snowcovered grass yells for air,
Screaming that no one else can hear.
Tree tops stand bare and cold,
But don't say a word.
Dry Snow begins to pour from the thick mass up above.
My mind is torn,
While my mangled brain tries to process all the distorted information.
My heavy eyes begin to move. Everything is the way I remember it.
I go on to another day,
One of whom might be even more strange.

Absent

Different from how I remember, this place is no longer the same.
The silent wind streams through the tall grass, and in the distance I hear your name.
The waves in the water are soft and dance with the swaying blades.
However the longer I sit here the more the sun fades.
So unlike the memories, its almost hard to take.
I feel like deep down I'm just going to break.
No one is around to hear me and my sighs.
Good thing for they are usually followed by my cries.
At this point I'm not sure what to do, but I have realized that what is missing is you.

Daydream

Fingers interlocked.
A ray of dawns light beams in through the blinds on the window.
You sleep soundly as I lay awake
And watch you dream.
I imagine the stories that go round in your mind.
With each breath you take, my smile grows.
Breathe in.... breathe out.
Seeing the innocence on your face brings me peace.
A moment of truth,
Instead of the lies I traditionally feed myself.
The sun has risen and the picture of you rests in my mind as a drift off.

Weary

Vision goes blurry, the dream has begun.
A faceless man approaches and takes my hand.
Gently tugging, leading to the door.
The exit sign flickers in the background.
Stopped in the hallway, looking back.
Once turned around the rain starts to fall... inside.
A picture hard to make out pass the intense rain drops.
What looks like paper dolls.... melting in the storm.
Kisses are blown in their direction, as they float away.
Once again the man pulls in his direction.
Following... with extreme caution.
The door is pushed open,
But there is no light showing what lies behind.

Reflection of me

I antagonize those around me.
I can see the blaze in the reflection of my enameled eyes.
The anger seeps through my pores and surrounds me.
Doesn't take long to consume all of me.
I begin gasping for air as I sink in to the quick sand I created.
Those once bright eyes slowly dim,
Through them I start to see my old self.
Please remember me.
I will keep breathing through the memories,
So I can go on without agony.
Beads of fear start to run down my face,
As I stare in to the looking glass.

Paradise

Eyes closed.
Sound of the grinding waves rebound through the mind.
Sand teases the toes with play.
Every grain casually coats the feet.
While the searing sun beats down,
Gently igniting the peach like fuzz preserving the skin.
Deep warmth creates a barrier all around,
Which shields one from the thoughts that dig holes in the mind.
Those few moments when life is reasonable and tender.
A brief period of time that is wished to never end.
Still the sun must set and the delight must retire.
As the Eyes begin to open,
The hushed pink sky waves goodbye.

Uncertainty

I'm slowly wilting,
Cracking and peeling through all my layers.
I can feel pieces of myself drifting off.
The fractured parts of life being washed away,
Down the drain of misfortune.
Lost in a maze filled with disappointments and regrets.

Enclosed

If you look at just the right angle,
Raindrops skate across the window at night.
The wind blows,
Pushing them along.
The soft sound bites your ear in silence.
The iridescent rainbow the water creates shields you.
Shields you from seeing the world at night when the clouds cry.
Its so dark you can't see the sadness.
The window becomes transparent,
As the loneliness dries up.
I am able to see the world clearly again, but I look in the other direction as though the outside world is not there.
As though its not ment to be seen.

Floating Until Dawn

I cry out to the bleeding sky,
Hoping that the stars will pour
Their glorious light and beauty upon my unfortunate soul.
The darkness comforts me.
Its been to long since I have seen
What has become of myself.
What life I once had is suffocating,
Suffocating by the surrounding air.
What once gave me strength,
Is now bringing defeat.
I have conquered myself,
I have lost what had made me happy.

Precious Sounds

A length of time to great has passed.
Hearing the sound of your voice
Is like feeling your touch for the first time.
The soothing sound slides
from my ear to my soul.
Your bouncing melody causes my heart to speed.
I can feel your smile through your harmonic tones.
The music that can change a life.
If only I could hold on to that sweet tune forever.

Where was I

At four years old I saw your face.
Everyday at 6am
I was brought to the same place.
The love you gave me had only grown.
A contagious smile of yours
That was always shown.
Each and every day
You helped me laugh and play.
Forget the world at home
Keep all my demons at bay.
English was always spoken
Even though it was extremely broken.
Before I knew 20 years had gone
Yet somehow you were still going strong.
One night you waited till I showed so late
You fell and broke...
Everyone told me it was fate.
Something I had trouble believing was true.
I would forever blame myself ... this was the only thing I knew.

Quiet Thunder

The quiet thunder roars,
As the powerless rain pours.
The sky lights up with fear,
As it waits for the storm to clear.
Thoughts run through my head,
As I sit and stare from my bed.
Confusion sets in,
And then I get lost within.
I see myself making this a trend,
For hours and hours on end.
The days go by,
And the quiet thunder goes on.
For reasons I can't explain,
Suddenly the storm is gone.
Yet somehow the fear didn't leave,
And I see things I don't want to believe.

If he had listened

Do you think if he had listened
To everything they said
That I would not be here
Lying so near dead.
Do you think if he had listened
And done what was right
That I would not be here
On this cold and dreadful night.
Do you think if he had listened
And not drank the whole case
That I would not be here
I wouldn't be in this place.
Do you think if he had listened
Even just a little
That I would not be here
On the pavement in the middle.
Do you think if he had listened
Maybe he wouldn't have had to lie
That I wouldn't have to be here.
I wouldn't be saying goodbye.

Mystery dance

A flame jumps off the mirrors reflection,
Then dives behind the bed.
A soft breeze flows in through the crack in the window,
Causing the shadows to dance around the empty room.
Leaping, hiding in every nook.
A lone candle powers a game of chase.
Can you feel the warmth on your fingertips while you try to follow the swaying wick.
The sound of thunder crowds the room.
It's echo suffocated the life from the weaving glow.

Father

Surrounded by soft whimpers that begin to fill the air.
The dark smell of death seemed to invade the dim lit corridor.
All the way from his room.
The room where he lay motionless.
A disfigured face left by a lifeless man.
He's not coming back.
This is not the man I knew.
This is not my....

Inconstant Moon

Who would have thought that when the inconstant moon casted it's lighted silhouette across the water in it's most serene state,
That one could feel every emotion that they've ever felt in their life at once.
Feel as though the world revolved around only themselves for that one moment.
Even when the dancing clouds strutted over the face of the moon, you could still see the bright smile of light even through the darkest shade of grey.
Everything stood still for those few minutes.
For those few moments,
Time had stopped and I felt more alive than when I was going on living life.
The enchantment runs through your body while your star gazed eyes are entrapped in the night sky.,
It's so powerful that one could feel as though you were on top of the world.
And no one and nothing else mattered.

Untitled

The glazed thickness of thoughts continue to run.
No one will ever get through the maze of darkness in my mind.
For only I can see what I have been through,
No one else cares to know, or understand the meaning of my being.
I don't understand the meaning of my being.
The fear runs like rapids cross checking big jagged rocks in my veins,
But my expression shows otherwise.
The fear remains,
Its just not shown in the 3 way mirror that all people look in to see.
I have been dropped and cracked open,
Every word seeps from within my locked box of memories.
The pain that once lingered around the grey clouds of passionless feeling has wandered off,
Though the fear has found a way to continue to hold me.

First time around the block!

My first post. It is what it is. I will mostly use this for my poetry!
