Autumn 2008

Windowed Storm
A once whispering wind now screams
innumberable water pellets dart
like bullets, a target my weak window
the grey above is angry, dark, and unforgiving
It shakes the world
with tremendous grumbles and grunts
throws down heat
light to startle a salted eye like mine
sitting near that fragile outlet,
and the glass breaks...


Young Oblivion
Beaming childish eyes
Captivate the luminous rays
But obliviate the suns caress
The backdrop and permanent trivial
Was chalk
Written about the sidewalk when the sky decides to cry
But he was etched in stone
Carved neatly simmering within her skull
To have that chance to blush and grin
Equates to living in the preceding moment
Here, past is impossible
Miles and time away
Playground love fades to fairytale
Fictional in mind, in sense
But dieing to drown in your eyes
A wish never to be fulfilled
If miracles are true though
And our paths cross like our childish gaze
Will you remember?


Always Be
changing angles will keep rotating
made of two hands, plastered to a ticking face
But this, time cannot change
And mist will be dew
atop leaves that will brown
But even mother nature cannot make this seize
The grey above will tear
cry, then again blue
But weather is not to stop this
So as the wind blows
people and time move on
yours I'll always be
