Weight, of all the things been done. Crush my soul, no bleeding comes. Lost, the willingness to breath, its gone. Habit, still keeping some lights on. Can't hate more, myself or I. Wings all broken, that used to fly. Ventured hard but where's the gain. Easier to love the pain.
Take the splinters from my
heart.
Then slowly watch it fall
apart.
Take the memories from my
head.
Consign me to this prison
bed.
Take all the feeling from my
soul.
This empty shell, will still be
whole.
Take the time to really
see.
Without life's scars, I am not
me.
I miss the light that shone from
you.
A white hot spark that shone so
true.
Your light helped to keep the black
at bay.
Saturated colours, dispelled
the gray.
Without the bright, the light of
you.
I drown in darkness, a midnight
blue.
Sounds of laughter on the breeze.
It chuckles as it stirs the leaves.
Lifts them high to swirl and play.
As new spring branches wave
and sway.
Tingle, taste, sight and smell.
Pure new day, breaks winters
spell.
Draw it in, take heart, rise high.
Float with that breeze, and touch
the sky.
When did the world of we,
become the lonely island
of me.
What you wear and what
you say.
A new found god to bow
and pray.
When did love become a
sin.
Why is hate an easy win.
Life can be hard, but don't
give in.
An open heart an easy
smile.
Hold out your hand lets
talk a while.
Lets build bridges, not tear
them down.
Let hope and love become
our crown.

The Wings I Used to Have~ A Poem
It was the year 2016,
When everything hit,
It caused my soul to catch on fire,
With every inch of it being lit
Before then, I had an audience,
And friends that I could talk to,
They gave me wings to flutter with,
But with them I flew
But as I was on fire,
I saw those wings burn away,
And there was nothing I could do,
To convince to them to stay
I felt so weak and helpless,
With nobody on my side,
It became very clear to me,
That it would've been better if I just had died
Even after it was over,
It was hard for me to stand,
All my dreams had seemed to fade away,
And nothing was going as planned
I had tried to keep hope,
As
A sublime smile, that belies
the sadness, in your eyes.
Depth less eyes that shine
the beauty of your soul.
Light that is reflected from
within.
Gentle spirit, at the mercy
of fates whim.
None can see the raw steel
courage, that will win.
