Mountain Top

I climbed a mountain
and I saw the world
as I stood there
up so high
I could nearly touch the sky
I looked down
at the world below my feet
the trees were dancing
in the breeze
Adrenaline rushed through my veins
as the beauty of the vast scenic view
grasped my heart
and took my breath away
tingling my eyes
as to shed a small tear
glued to the Tip of the mountain top
the soles of my feet lay heavy like cement
hypnotized by the Awe of the setting sun
sinking in to the sea of the peaks
the winding road outlining the edges
a river of grey threading through
How I longed to bare feathered wing
to take a leap of faith
and fly off this tree covered rock
I climbed a Mountain
and I saw the world
experienced nature's true beauty and grace
as if I were staring in to God's face
nearly touching heaven with my fingertips
a moment of pure peace and serenity
Recalling each challenging step to reach the top

Lustful Beast

The Animal within me
is breaching security
clawing from the inside out
forcing me to scream and shout
How do I stop this
how do I control myself
Don't try to read me
you could never figure me out
No not this time
the pieces don't fit
but somehow this is it
Fallen through
Now in to you
too involved in the matter
couldn't escape if I wanted to
no reason for a way out
Tearing at my core
Yet I only want more
Fighting Myself again and again
only to find out in the end
The Animal always wins.

Flooded

Swimmingly
swim swim
I'm diving in
pulling negativity
and confusion
off my shelf
in my library
burning these books
leaving the ashes behind
left to blow away
deep in to the wind
I've read this chapter
many times before
and Now I'm bored
finished this tale
over and over
as your words scream louder
only to be a def tone in my ear
repeat and repeat
but I'm done now
searching for new ground
turning the page
the pen's in my hand
time to begin
this new chapter
I'm diving in
Ready to swim.

Mumble Jumble

Click Click
my Keyboard
spits spits
these letters
as I
type type
typing away
mumble jumble
who knows what what
what these letters
will form in
to too two
more minutes
then I'm done
done done
causing commotions
with the things
I say say
I Love yous
and stay stay
stay away from me
Negativity
don't hate hate
hate my words
its only truth
that confuses you
you you
silly thing you.

Random Lines #2

I will be your umbrella,
always there to catch your tears
I will be your giant,
to chase away your fears
I will be your warmth,
for whenever you are cold
I will be the Childish Heart,
whenever you feel old
I will be your pillow,
when you need to rest your head
I will never walk away,
I am your friend until the end.

Random Lines #1

My family calls me a dreamer
so dream is what I'll do
and while I lay there sleeping
I will only dream of you.

Lesson Learned

You bare no weight to the soles on my feet
I'm walking forward and skipping along
to the sound of my own beat
Your silent ghosts do not haunt
my already haunted head
you can not break whats already broken
you can not steal whats already taken
you can not kill whats already dead
your storm can not stop me
from dancing in the rain
I smile while you wear the frown
you're the king
but I wear the crown
You try to push
but I've already been shoved
You fume with anger
I play with laughter
You cant move the mountain
that refuses to budge
You can not tarnish pure gold
you can not lie when the truth's been told
you told me once
you told me twice
this time I took your advice
so I'm walking along
ignoring your stop signs
I got my green light lit
Veering off the pavement
making my own tracks in the mud
enjoying each step
as further away I walk
your voice becomes faint with the wind
walking turns to skipping
skipping turns to running
running turns to dancing
laughing all the while
in your tower of solitude
tears of loneliness flow
from your ever flooded head
and you wonder why
I get further away
no turning back
up ahead the sun is shining
flowers all in bloom
Storms all above you
you told me once
you told me twice
this time I took your advice
and you wonder why
I never said Goodbye
I'm Playing in the sunshine
you can enjoy your rain

A Farewell To The Dust In My Wind

I am washing the blood of my hands,
burying the hatchet,
cutting old Ties,
Repairing old broken bridges,
and casting fire to those who could not be fixed,
releasing the skeletons in my closet,
Forgetting the bad
holding on to the good, 
while looking forward, 
head held high,
confidence within each step,
take One last glance behind 
and kiss it all Goodbye
 I'm letting go of the rope, 
and diving head first
in to the vast unknown called
"My Future"
