The Ethereal Ride
In the great hereafter
white horses we'll ride
Yet now I am burdened
So empty inside
In dreams, I've known you,
A mix of sin and lies
I have my freedom,
But time quickly flies
Faith has shattered,
Tears need their due
Let's live a little,
After life is through
Swing open the stables
where the horses all dwell
Ride those white stallions
To heaven or hell
white horses we'll ride
Yet now I am burdened
So empty inside
In dreams, I've known you,
A mix of sin and lies
I have my freedom,
But time quickly flies
Faith has shattered,
Tears need their due
Let's live a little,
After life is through
Swing open the stables
where the horses all dwell
Ride those white stallions
To heaven or hell

Ice Aged
Glowing embers
In a cooling hearth
As a cold winter wind
Begins to creep through
Cracked windows
And groaning oaken doors
Followed by the ice
Sculpturing crazy patterns
Across the glass
Like frozen snowflakes
Soon
Even time stands still
As the pendulum
Is caught
Mid swing
The ramshackle
Almost derelict cottage
Lies alone
In the midst
In a frozen desolate wasteland
Lying within the beautiful bleakness
And the loud silence
Other than the sound
Of cracking ice
And long muted...

A Perfect Lore
Look into the quiet place
and ask it what you are.
I am of course an atheist.
When I look at creation I see
the great and ready-made chaos,
proliferating always like
the strain of some disease.
I cannot see in anything
the hand of some kind scientist,
observing us as Harlow did
his lovelorn simians.
But in this chaos there’s
a fire clean and pure,
a reason still to learn what’s here
and make at last a perfect lore.

days above/on ground, and impact landing
head quarters are flawed by design; the engines are expected to run or fly within a deadline; airlines; stations of all kinds....
this is why questions like, is there truly such a thing as "freewill" come to mind?one could say, that the machine keeps everything aligned;
who is responsible for headquarters? one shouldn't ask questions like that, right?-nevermind....
a numbers game; the numbers rise-faster than the sunshine hits the skies....
don't gas me up-the mileage is high; the road...

the most "high"
when that high off the tree hits-life continues to show how deep it really is; "simple"(for perspective's sake) but at the same time way too deep....

Soul mates
In the darkness, while the world sleeps;
I close my eyes and I can hear your heartbeat.
Our hearts beat as if one in the same
Playing a song that screams out our name.
Reminding us that though in body we are apart
Our souls are conjoined; sharing the same heart.
Creating a symphony that plays our song.
Remember our separation will not be long
So listen to the rhythm when it speaks our name.
Always remember we are from the same flame.
That bond can't be broken, not with space nor time
Our love was written in the stars over...

shackles
looking up, down, and around; cheat codes? this "game"-this "simulation" without breaking the "law" won't hardly allow; trapped, and jacked in the box; going through the motions is my primary know how....
perhaps one of these days-i could jail break my way out; or just maybe one of these days, it'll all come down; I'm an alien no doubt; deeply discouraged-from most that surrounds

In the Cradle of Her Body
In the cradle of her body, a secret unfolds,
A tiny heart with a future untold.
Within her a miracle begins to play,
A symphony of life in her wondrous sway.
Her body so beautiful, a source of pleasure,
Now harbors new life and untold treasures.
Curves blossom and grow as her petals unfurl,
A canvas of life from one precious pearl.
~By Megan for Lauryn

cut-throat culture
I don't need a holy book, to show me what is seen; i don't need a holy book to tell me don't fall in love with this reality;
I don't believe everything I hear, see, or read; by design-there's hardly any room here for peace and harmony;
best case senerio is having food to eat, clothes to wear, and a place to sleep.... everything else are potential reasons one seeks a cope to maintain some sense of ease

Hearts in the Sand (song)
Sunlight on the harbour
sparkles like mischievous eyes
Laughter of seagulls
Questions float on wind and tide
The trees where we used to walk together
They miss your footsteps now
Life comes in waves, they just keep coming
We don’t get to ride them all
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
It’s gonna be alright
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
I’m gonna be alright
The tides went on and on before us
The tides go on and...
sparkles like mischievous eyes
Laughter of seagulls
Questions float on wind and tide
The trees where we used to walk together
They miss your footsteps now
Life comes in waves, they just keep coming
We don’t get to ride them all
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
It’s gonna be alright
Lifetimes wash away like hearts in the sand
You’re living in my memory
I’m gonna be alright
The tides went on and on before us
The tides go on and...

"good on paper"
a deeper meaning could be behind a few words; even when I say that I drink to numb my nerves; everything looks "good on paper" until paper has no use;
then it becomes about, how much more good are you in groups; I'm an "introvert" who day by day learns "the truth"....
and the truth is, ones' vulnerable to sleep, depend on plenty things external, and thoughts run through the mind, more than the body outside could ever do....
why many times, I wish that I could.... just.... poof.

I'm a spectator
watching the landscape of humanity
let me know
when the credits roll up
I'm not watching this film again...
