Works:

Time is but a Breath (06MAY13)

License all breath to a certain

Instantaneous death, for those full of

Faintheartedness ensure their existence

Everlastingly stale and meaningless.

If each exhalation accompanies zero

Substance, then yesterday’s an abomination.

Failing to embrace the moments of day

Is akin to a faceless, pale memory.

Nothing ventured equates to emptiness attained.

Implying without animation, nonexistence is gained.

Take in that succeeding breath knowing it all won’t last;

Every second wasted prolongs a devoid past.

An Exchange (21APR13)

The faintest note

A deafening instant

Alas she wrote

Her thoughts to me lent

Barely a sentence relayed

The edge of my lips curl round

With heartfelt writings she paid

The toll I accepted in pound

Along with admiration I trade

My response boldly resounds

But I fear the meaning is frayed

Such a mishap was never meant

The consequences I now tote

For that feeling I am reliant

The pain I know by rote.

Shooting Star (21APR13)

Keeping all in turn,

Everything seems bright.

Let on it the sun burn

Lest day transitions to night; Yet nothing seems to shine...

Finally, semblance of peace

Inundates all or

Nothing shall cease.

Keeping inside more...

Unmasked Travel (13APR13)

A life less ordinary abroad, But one's, still, truly the same. Pondering differences in self While acting far less tame.

Isn't it puzzling how we Realize and be Whom we deem Necessary?

Experiences fulfilled much more broad As travels waste not a minute of day. The influx of enjoyment increases wealth Of said explorer beyond that of money.

Isn't it baffling how we Pry open eyes to be Whom we deem Eventually?

Century is History (12APR13)

A century of days have passed,

And, still, he remains haunted

By inklings of that fateful night

Leaving him paralyzed,

Jaded,

Daunted.

He feigns composure,

Normalcy,

Growth;

And wills her from mind's sight

Of which he's taken oath.

Yet, history assures it won't last!

Beauty is Omnipresent (13MAR13)

Beauty surrounds us.

It manifests within

And is exuded from

Others.

The placement of a

Simple stone, the

Wonderment of a

Mother's love.

The calligraphy in an

Ancient tome, the

Excitation brought from

Another's touch.

Beauty surrounds us.

Wouldn't it be a sin,

If one masked their's

And ignored other's?

Bravery is Acceptance to Change(04MAR13)

A foolhardy soul seeks other than truth instinctively blockading their heart.

For that which they're yearning all along is rarely guarded with rampart.

The decisive point in battles of emotional matters,

Is neither concentric defence, nor moats, nor cannons.

The moment of your struggle's peripeteia

Only manifests once you no longer deny that

Your army isn't sound, your fortress imperfect.

Allowing your drawbridge to come down won't hinder your structure's erect.

It permits both the fostering of knowledge and self growth;

Then, and only then, is your castle fortified, your mind and heart both!

(02MAR13) "Someone told me of their affinity towards bridges once, though I never saw the appeal. Yet, today, amongst my travels, I was taken aback, astonished by the beauty of steel.  As I traversed, I was struck with understanding and no longer perplexion, for a bridge is not just that of structure, but, also, lasting connection!"

(26FEB13) "Occasionally, the only tools needed to create are those within the confines of your mind, and an untainted, unbridled, blank slate."

(25FEB13) "Sleep has neither come easy nor often as of late. Be it Bic, Sharpie, or Papermate; I know that through such tools I can ink my own dreams, and within those dreams, I will find rest and peace. With that peace and state of being calm, I hope to fall a slumber the whole eve long. Yet, I know that this is surreal, for my mistress, ZZZ, has left me longing her here."

(24FEB13) "Nothing is ever truly over! The past may cease to exist.  Paths may no longer cross.  From one's life, another may exit, and within their heart, they feel a loss.  Yet, forever all'll live on, the good, bad, and great.  For memories are unending, even if slightly faint."

(23FEB13) "Writer's Block isn't simply a pathetic excuse, it's also an overt sign of cowardice. Fear not. Put your Sharpie to paper, and allow your innermost thoughts to be felt by all lucky to read them!"

(22FEB13) "You keep calling back. You keep crawling back.  But if you were not up ahead, you would not have to turn around!"

(21FEB13) "The meaning of life can be summed, simply, by a single noun: Happiness! However, such a state can't be realized through a "buttoned up" existence, nor can one find this manner of being through the act of settling.  Happiness can only be achieved through constant self discovery, the willingness to say "Yes," and the courage to follow through."
