Let my heart soar as high
as the summer sun
While I daydream lazily
caught in a reverie.
My mind wanders joyfully
through happiness
As I forget the trials
of being human.
How shall I describe thee
From my mind's eye?
Thy smile is warmer than
Sunshine rays in June.
Thine eyes of turmoil
Hold a mischievous twinkle
Thy infectuous laugh-
Deep, but bright with joy.
Thou art my equal
In many things.
Yet far above me
In many others.
Thou art my true friend, and
I cherish your very presence.
bite
rip
tear
charred bones
hungry souls
needing
crying
hatred
hold out empty hands
to feed
empty mouths
sadly
they're vermin
underground
creatures
animals
sneaking in the shadows
desperate times
call for
desperate measures
orphans
abandoned
abused
out in the cold
alone
their tears
aren't
dried by love
green
leaves dancing
twirling, writhing, singing
spring's song
I am writing you an apology.
All the things I said,
I'm sorry.
All the things I did,
I'm sorry.
When I cared for you,
I'm sorry.
Because I fell in love with you
And refused to deny it,
I'm sorry.
Deep in my memory
lies a moment of time
full of light
and joy
bright with feeling
and remembrance of you.
Love's tear
Out of darkness and death,
Infinite sadness and desolution,
Falls a tiny bead of light
Full of faith and hope.
This crystalline droplet of goodness
Travels to our pitiful world
And finds itself represented as
A child's tear of happiness.
Angel
What is angel?
An immortal creature selected
By God, to be given wings
To fly, and a voice to sing
Harmoniously; perhaps
A sagacious one?
What is an angel?
Deceased who have
Shown good judgement,
And never sullied their reputations
By contemptuous acts.
Whoever has done no wrong?
