Bright New Day

The light shines in my eyes.
To what in this day lies.
I grab my coffee and go to the quiet outside
The trees surround me far and wide.
The winding road is off in the distance.
I am thankful for all existence.

Wandering mind.

Focus!
I cant seem to put thoughts together.
Mind wanders about irrelevant subjects.
Bring myself back.
Find a point of interest.
I her a million voices in my head.
Continuous pictures float above the surface.
Nothing seems to make sense.

Insomniac

I hear the clock ticking.
I twist I turn cant seem to get comfortable.
Why cant I just drift into a deep sleep.
Turn to the left.
Turn to the right.
I try to count sheep.
I feel like I have tried everything.
I restlessly get up to turn on the light.
It seems to be another sleepless night.

Summer Release

Sun beats on our skin.
We frolick through the streets,
feeling free to be.

Optimism

Run as fast as you can.
Jump as high as the castle in the sky.
Swim through out the seven seas.
Sing louder than a banshee.
Be all you can be.
Live the life dreamss.

Game Night


Twister
Bend, stretch, and flex
Body tries to stay up
Slipping, tripping, mixing of limbs
Twister

Life in Music


As I strum the string,
I think of the beat.
It takes me to a different place.
I feel the verses meet.
My voice sings out.
There is no stopping now.
I look into the distance,
And stand up to take a bow.

Chasing Happiness

The car continues to drive.
No inclination of our destination.
I feel safe by your side.
All the sadness begins to fade.
The miles disapear through the day.
As we are succumed by the night,
you put your hand inside mine.
I slow down the thoughts in my mind,
to dream of better times.

A Look into the Past


She walked down the street.
Who was she to meet?
Nervously turns the doorknob;
She began to sob.
She sees through the curtain of lace,
The smiling on her daughters face.

Empty Thoughts



We jumped and ran down the tracks;
Running away from decisions in reality.
As we tried not to step on the cracks,
I held close to my mentality.
