So, tonight I tried, tried to write when I am home. There is little tragedy in my life at the current moment to draw inspiration from. It's hard to write when one is in good emotional spirits. I wrote 3 free verse poems and this is one of them...
let me chase the thoughts tonight
let me travel in this place
a couple minutes until eternity
this place is where I want to be
give me a hand
just a stable push
I wanna see your smile
see the world within your eyes
can I do this
am I good enough
do you believe in me
I believe in you
another, please another
special look
on the horizons of the mind
a twinkle in the sun
a sparkle in the moon
the wind blows and chills
as goose bumps raise
on my skin
seasons come and seasons go
time passes as rivers flow
people moving like they do
from one side of my heart
to the other
and back again
quickly take my hand
do you feel what I feel
do you see this buzz
this fleeting sense
of something more
there was an earthquake inside me
today and everyday
larger than the largest
more than the time before
casualties mount
the death toll is staggering
I have survived
as I always do
as if protected
by you
let me show you the way
inside this sacred city
the streets lined with gold
light posts beacons of the sun
it's never dark here
never a dull moment
I live up on the corner
away from the bustling crowd
a quaint little dwelling
to which I'm proud
let's run, nobody will know
nobody cares anyway
smile again
let me see the world within your eyes
let me dream of that sweet surprise
