Set My Emotions to sea

I have never been the type to shy away from my emotional side|

I display them|

Allowing the limited few I fall for|

In like an open door|

Yet the women I have fallen for|

See this as a sign of weakness|

A fault|

Am I too old fashioned|?

And they would rather have a man with no emotions?|

Is what they want only a protector?|

Someone to feel safe with?|

And not someone to confide in as well?|

Or am I just swimming in the wrong sea?|

Should I just let the breeze carry my emotions to sea?|

Until the correct hands grab onto them and return the emotions back at me?|

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|
