strengthening our peace

this ability we possess
to learn this language
to give a voice to these thoughts
all so we can communicate with others
have them hear our story
their sympathy
their elation
it all means we have worth
...right?

you view my opinion as a direct correlation with who i am
my opinion is only as real as that blimp of a moment in time
it does not carry forward,
it stays rested in that second

a new discovery changes our view
and now your information is outdated and useless
to you, i stay frozen to that moment
you stay rested the same to me
until we meet again in the future to pick up where we left off

after a quick catch up,
feel as though we've been with you the whole time
is it that easy?
it would be nice to say so.

how a yes can bring us so much comfort
a falsity we care to believe
because we feel if we push it off, it won't hurt now
how mean we are to our future selves
how we don't care enough to protect her
how selfish to think she less deserving

--peace in this moment and the next--
--is longer lasting peace and happiness--

changing minds, seated views

to desire someone more than you desire yourself
what little you know of them
yet to be so certain they're perfect
to know they will fulfill your every need and desire

let time take its course
discovering the little annoyances
seeing the habits you wish to change
cause as you grow, so do they
never following the same path
how can they fit your perfect mold anymore?

now to nag, to change
holding onto ideas of the past
not seeing their present self
confused by their developed mind

who is this person i once thought so perfect?
i've allowed you to control my world
yet you're not who i agreed to anymore
i've been tricked, fooled

i want out.

words of thought

a spoken thought
released into the universe
awaiting a response

Infinite

a halted heart
paced and swollen to time
never seizes to find a reason to ache

until discovered
will it understand the depth of love it holds?
all this love intended for itself
yet distracted by thoughts
words muttered in our unspoken ears

to question itself
to believe lies of fear and vulnerability
to release sparingly so as to never run dry

yet if trusted
we will be elated to discover
its infinite depth
its infinite power
to spread our love throughout our body
to project onto others our unconditional love

lead the follow

with the presence of unsettling nature
every bit a tad askew
with feelings of resistance
noticeable to the still

to find the nature of the change
to fix the gap of the miss-ranged
you fill the void of the movement

pieces shift when needed be time
we cannot view the cause
since it's purpose is the result

we follow the guided
trust in our delicate foresight
we see but touch
we know from failure
we shepherd our flock
our i

a try is better than none at all

a guilty thank you
a mistrusted appreciation
against truth in a state of unhappiness

defeated by own useless beliefs
to be looked down on in occurrence
my self trait of absurdity

thy divine nature
makes no part of me false
my truth is existence
what is

my only lie, thought
a life lived as free as possible from
is a life rich in happiness

quiet from the drone of the machine
free from the chains of form
diluted from the constraints of this mental plane

my purpose unspecified
my result still pending

unfreeze the frozen

verbal stretch
play of words to create new meanings
bend the mind and its capabilities

who says it can't be different?
who says we are the same?
who says your worth?

when all i have left are questions
only the unanswered will live as time
only the unthought will manipulate existence

an imbalance of direction
causes tidal waves of destruction
we are our worst enemy
our captain general, our knowledge
our only escape, self destruction of thought

silent enough to hear a first breath
still enough to feel life move
brave enough to let go

reclaiming our purpose

you mean a lot

three words that present;
union, kinship and love

three words that express;
admiration, loyalty, an over abundance of smiles

three words that when it comes down to it, mean;
forever, ever flowing, present

three words that when spoken, sound;
i miss you

halted mental strain

within these human hands,
superhuman abilities are achieved.

those scared of this power
sneak away into the depths of the shadows
all attracted by the bright pretty white light,
then under realization of the magnitude,
scare of the possibilities.

those with strength of spirit
stay rested in their feet,
in some way aware of the good
aware of the bigger

we are not you, not me
we are unknown, unnamed.
weightless,
sightless,
soundless.

we are breathless.

an unsaid knowledge

quiet and still my breaths
beats slow to and from my breathing heart
steadily, silently, i weep for my solitude.
my brain unable to stop
it does not know how to sit
it does not know how to silent
it does not understand why

my self prayer of peace
comes through practice and belief
belief in myself
belief in the universe
in the unsaid wisdom

i love you
you are the divine
i will work with you and for you
my number one priority

the goal to redeliver
only improving to be done onto others
a treat for the unaware
my love for you is continuous.

a see you later'

the moment of a person in your life
attachments grown
afraid to say goodbye

we are the blind [for listening]

following a curvy path,
leading nowhere in particular
ending out of sight of eyes
ending out of sound of ears

not so dangerous as faith
not so cunning as the taught
disguised in good graces
meant for all the best
undeserving of such lies

sour tastes
hungry breath
sucking the very life of your own soul
you blind your very being
with all the lies we listen
we believe
we teach

i used to love the knowledge
i've learned to question the told
question everything

for nothing is ever certain

a quest of ions

a solitude
because i choose it so?

a quiet
because unasked of more?

a lone
because awaiting the best?

unanswered
unbelieved
silent to the tips

once never believed so
never delivered
never opened
never received

a silent heart remains so
until believed more
i am the divine

dream walker

sleep traveler
time shifter

to possess such a thing
so powerful
so precious

to defend with good
fight away the terror
and the bad

dream walker
sleep traveler
time shifter

still unbelieving

unaware of how to start
or where to end

The Voice Of Knowledge

you will know that you are free
when you no longer
have to be you.

-Don Miguel Ruiz
[The Voice Of Knowledge]

silent mirrors

if i am perfect,
then my love is abundant
i have enough for myself
and plenty to share

my story is my own journey
which takes no other tale
you cannot see my path
or hear my foot steps

i am but a mere memory in your story
your own path
sullen with your imprints
a sole pair travel that route

we interact out of love
share thoughts and ideas
express kindness and pleasantries

i am your silent partner
yet both our own stories
share similarities
carved by our love

a changed looking glass

i've rebelled against truth
i've dismissed any intent of good
i've claimed anonymity

afraid to be false,
afraid to fail,
afraid i wasn't real

i exist, but on another channel
pure thought cannot be expressed
words complicate truth
truth is trust
and trust is perfection
perfection equals love

what is really real?

as soon as it is a thought
it is no longer "real"

[it no longer exists]

all just a manufacture

i am the reproduction of a society.
i am a manufactured product.
i am the falsity of realism.
i am a denial of reality.
i am a tool to sell you on ideas.

--if i was really here, i wouldn't have a face--
