UNRESOLVED MYSTERY
A puzzle I am even unto myself…a mystery not even I can resolve.
I have never understood why I do or act the way I do…the mystery never dissolves
With every leap I take into a brand new day
I blow myself away
Thinking and over-thinking, analyzing and configuring myself like an unsolvable equation
I’ve shot prayers up to the heavens asking the Almighty to explain, awaiting with anticipation
For answers never answered…not even by the Almighty One.
So, I’ve re-traced my footprints paved across the miles of my history and found...

Prussian
Out of the blue blues
Stains the walls blue
Turns the lips blue
Heart pumps blue
Breathe the air blue
Cold hands are blue
Feet dark and blue
Mind over matter blue
Will it drown
Will it float
Will it become
Out of the blue?
Stains the walls blue
Turns the lips blue
Heart pumps blue
Breathe the air blue
Cold hands are blue
Feet dark and blue
Mind over matter blue
Will it drown
Will it float
Will it become
Out of the blue?

In this moment
Darkness is creeping in
Coolness kisses my skin
Familiar churning in my gut
Cheeks stained hot scarlet
Tears sting my eyes
Head pounding with pain
Thoughts a tangled mess
Unable to remain still
Bricks rebuild my walls
Solitude becons me
Insecurities heightened
Overwhelming emotions
Darkness is now closer
Pleading the dark to stop
Please please stop......
Please stop......
Please...
Stop
Coolness kisses my skin
Familiar churning in my gut
Cheeks stained hot scarlet
Tears sting my eyes
Head pounding with pain
Thoughts a tangled mess
Unable to remain still
Bricks rebuild my walls
Solitude becons me
Insecurities heightened
Overwhelming emotions
Darkness is now closer
Pleading the dark to stop
Please please stop......
Please stop......
Please...
Stop

The Gravedigger
The Gravedigger
"Why are you digging an unnecessary abyss?" she asks,
"It is a grave for whom i cannot say!"
The man stands and recalls,
Too many times has given up his life,
Too many fears force him to stall.
The first cut ripped like a knife,
that does not mean so do all!
A cynical view does him his harm.
As content as he may seem,
Perhaps a look at his life would set the alarm.
A realization that there is a fear within him!
In maturity a windfall fell his way.
Not money! But another,
Which...

Walking the Streets at Night
Walked home via Aldwych. Reflected that nothing really changes. I’m still walking about this city dragging my loneliness with me, putting on a front, whistling in the dark. It is getting darker all the time.” - The Kenneth Williams Diaries
Walking the streets at night,
I look at windows overlooking alleyways
and tangled gardens long since given up,
and picture myself inside those rooms
just outside the dangerous corner of pitch,
where anything might be lurking.
I’d never tell my grandmother,
who once freaked out
when I said that...

Legacy
I used to stay up just to stare at a star
its eternal flame in a pool of black tar,
giving me comfort as it duelled the dark.
sizzling sweet solace with its electric spark.
But the truth is, that star was dead long ago,
all that remains is its vestigial glow,
swallowed by time and forever now buried,
now it’s that knowledge that keeps me up worried.
Will anyone care when I am dead and gone,
or will they rejoice, and forget before long?
Will I be lost in the void for all of time,
or part of me stay, like that star...
its eternal flame in a pool of black tar,
giving me comfort as it duelled the dark.
sizzling sweet solace with its electric spark.
But the truth is, that star was dead long ago,
all that remains is its vestigial glow,
swallowed by time and forever now buried,
now it’s that knowledge that keeps me up worried.
Will anyone care when I am dead and gone,
or will they rejoice, and forget before long?
Will I be lost in the void for all of time,
or part of me stay, like that star...

Bottom of the pond.
Once you’ve hit the bottom of the pond,
You become content in the waters and forget about all of the pleasures that lay on the surface.
You find peace and tranquillity in the silence of the depths; bury and hide all negative thoughts, memories and feelings of regret. But without returning to the surface all positive opportunities remain undiscovered.
Return to the surface, give yourself a breath, remember to indulge in happiness.
Cause although the depts are silent and emotionless, your stuck amongst the mess of your past regrets.
You become content in the waters and forget about all of the pleasures that lay on the surface.

Frozen
Somewhere, far away
the stars cry
glistening teardrops frozen
forever...in the dark sky
the stars cry
glistening teardrops frozen
forever...in the dark sky

Light or Dark
Suffocating inside my own skin
My heart is cold and unloving
Reaching out into the unknown
The darkness is overwhelming
My mind won't stop screaming
Thoughts begin to consume me
There is no place I can escape
Allowing myself to be pulled in
Must choose which road to take
I've created many ways out
Everyone's feelings are dismissed
Everything I think is only for myself
Worry not my loved ones
Your hearts will heal quickly
Cannot think about others now
I don't want to care about the outcome
All I want right now is...
My heart is cold and unloving
Reaching out into the unknown
The darkness is overwhelming
My mind won't stop screaming
Thoughts begin to consume me
There is no place I can escape
Allowing myself to be pulled in
Must choose which road to take
I've created many ways out
Everyone's feelings are dismissed
Everything I think is only for myself
Worry not my loved ones
Your hearts will heal quickly
Cannot think about others now
I don't want to care about the outcome
All I want right now is...

Dad(Description gives you info that sheds more on the poem)
I can read, dad
Pictures aren't books
I made a friend, dad
How did that happen?
I can walk, dad
Now you learn to run
I can speak, dad
Now you get your degree
We won, dad
You struck out once
I can score, dad
$100 never will
I'm good, dad
Too small to be great
I learned to write, dad
Next, the typewriter
I got an A, dad
If you didn't then I would be ashamed
I want to talk, dad
Well, I want a clean house
I want to achieve, dad
Got a long way to go
I think I tied my shoes,...

The sun still shines.
It creeps and crawls
And eats away at
Whats left of her corpse
All she wanted was to
Die in unison
With the cold branches and
Lifeless leaves
Her
Blood leaves
Her limbs and the
Color in her face
(you once loved)
No longer
Makes its
Way there
And you cry out
Again
Again
Again
But your words are wasted
Her ears are decomposed
They
Belong to the
Ground now
The ground beneath your feet
Yet
You're shocked
(Shocked? Shocked...
And eats away at
Whats left of her corpse
All she wanted was to
Die in unison
With the cold branches and
Lifeless leaves
Her
Blood leaves
Her limbs and the
Color in her face
(you once loved)
No longer
Makes its
Way there
And you cry out
Again
Again
Again
But your words are wasted
Her ears are decomposed
They
Belong to the
Ground now
The ground beneath your feet
Yet
You're shocked
(Shocked? Shocked...

Singing To An Empty Choir
At and empty church,
i sing my confessions.
no one is around to hear,
who have I become?
just another stain on the glass windows?
i prayed for it to come,
to set my mind in stone.
my heart beat me into the ground.
so, I bought a boquet of orchids today.
just to spend the change on the rain.
i sing my confessions.
no one is around to hear,
who have I become?
just another stain on the glass windows?
i prayed for it to come,
to set my mind in stone.
my heart beat me into the ground.
so, I bought a boquet of orchids today.
just to spend the change on the rain.
