Watercolour

Days become nights become days become years

A vibrant watercolor seemingly endless

The grateful heart searches to preserve it

On glass it lies, the sun shining through

But the glare keeps me from what is

A waking dreams only the shards might ignite

I wait in vain as moments pass 

New colours on a new canvas beg

I'm not ready

Dancing paths

Will it reveal itself like the horizon met, the wandering paths that led you here on the tides of you're existence

The vastness of your naivety or a revelation. A slow dance, twirled until safely cocooned or pushed until viciously unspun... only to then search for the true horizon.

Faded colour

It rises like bile, the anger in my veins. 

It takes my breath away, takes me away from me,  but I choose it over pain.

Weaved words in smoke, I fill my lungs to breathe, out towards a place I long to be. In forgotten thoughts of what should never have been.

I leapt into a dream that twisted into dark, there but not a threat until i called it to my heart. I played my part, i played along, i have myself to blame and now i fight with every breath to find the color again.

Fickle heart

And when you find your thoughts alone and at peace 

You wonder about fears that may come to be

You've loved without question only to hurt

Known without doubt only to forget

Changed in an instant as life unfolds

Only to question which heart to behold

The mind will perceive 

The heart will determine

The way to all that is uncertain

How can it be if you don't know that breeze 

that you're able to breathe, to understand, to believe

I try to imagine what sets your pace 

if you can't have felt or seen this place

where do you go to find your bliss 

and how do you hold onto happiness

without the whispers across the sand

without the tides to wash your hands

tell me your secrets,

you're different to me,

for how have you learned

without a touch from the sea.

Humans by nature are flawed. By chemical make up we change. That's why commitment is such a sacred thing because it's a conscious decision to give one person everything you've got not matter what else is happening around you.
