Follow The Light

You see the light shine bright on the other side|

Try to catch it before it hides beyond the clouds|

Shadows fallow as you stumble|

One last breath as light runs away|

Speed up to catch one last glimpse|

Try to preserve its brightness for another day|

Tears flow down as your last chance fades out|

You know there is no option for another day|

You reach the mountain top|

Though the light lost its bright|

No more life as you see your last days slowly fade away|

  1. Oh, I love this one. I love the image of climbing up a mountain, but it's so sad at the end. It gives off that wonderful sense of urgency through the entire thing. Maybe that's why I love it.

Inside Your Hands

Parables fumble in unprepared hands| Deprived of gifts bestowed to thee| As humans we seek shelter beneath a tree| When our feet become weak| And our needs extend beyond our means| As rain pours| It cleanses our soul| Dormant ideas start to grow| Yet we turn a blind eye| To what's before our sight| Taking the easy way| Shunning plights| Fighting is not a physical ordeal| It's more of a rejection to extol the almighty rule| Exploring alternatives to fables disguised as facts| Letters shredded in half| Eulogies embedded on a golden calf| The story was written for you to digest| The ending inside your hands| Inside your thoughts is the rest|

Spoken Word

A word once spoke is only heard through an opening in a cracked wall| Shrunk in the balance| Within strings moving from the wind's hold| Escaping push| Reinforced from strength of vibrations from a secluded silence|
