Mirror of Me

Changing Hearts

2011-03-05T18:43:00.000-08:00

this is a new one. :)

Changing Hearts

That day my heart shattered into a thousand pieces

Even if a tomorrow came slowly

I couldn't pick myself together soon enough

I'll try and go back to the way I was before

Without a change of heart

And see myself come right back here again

Maybe I'll bring everything back too

The same scenery and the secrecy in which we held each other

I feel the same high tension all over again

We try and try to be the same

Still frame as we once were

We're still broken and not yet mendable

We lay breathing yet we're not smiling like we used to

Our hearts apart and forever different

Like we're different souls now

Those days when I felt like I was unbreakable

Seem so childish now

No life in this apocalyptic world

No life that I care for

That day, my heart shattered into a thousand pieces,

We weren't meant to be broken, and

We all strayed away from each other

If we only changed one second,

If we could only say the same one more day.

I don't see the same scenery anymore

That sunset and the sunrise

Each was a new day

Now they all blend together without a difference

That dream that we all wanted to keep safe

That wish that all of us wanted to keep alive

We all believed that we couldn't be torn apart

Why do I still see the sky that we still saw?

Our broken promises are still in the air

Our betrayal

I remember that day

We all held ribbons

And promised each other to never part

And now, why?

I remember that day,

When our soon to be broken promises

Were spoken like they would always be kept.

The Other World

2011-02-14T18:02:00.000-08:00

okay so, i have NOT written in such a long time, and when i tried, i couldn't stop.
it's not edited, so please point out the mistakes if you see any! :D
Thankyou so much for taking your time to read my posts! i know i don't reply much and all, but i really do appreciate your encouragement. It's just that I start thinking that if i say "thankyou!" and all so much, it'll start to sound like I'm just saying it and i don't really mean it (and i really do mean it). -.-'

(the name of the poem is still being worked on as of yet, but this is the 'prototype', you could say)

The Other World

I live here alone
At the edge of the earth;
There are long fields where lights
Float up, towards the clouds
Blackened skies that are never luminous
They simply suck up the lights...

The yellow grass that never glows green
The roses that never fall
Yet they are so dried and dead..

I'm here all alone
And I search for you
The broken buildings fall
And I lose myself in the
Devastation.

I search for the cities in the night
Where I once knew
When they lightened up like
The same lights that float around

I search for the same soul
I once knew,
Laughing and kind;
Always changing
Yet always so familiar.

The shattered glass reflects
The darkness in the skies,
In place of the ocean that is long gone.

Here I am,
Without you;
Always finding my way, and
Always losing myself.

I see my windows,
The shutters open
And I see the other world
With so much life and beauty...

Here I am,
Without you;
Always searching for a way to leave,
Yet I never seem to find the way out.

Lügen

2010-06-13T21:24:00.000-07:00

the title means "lies" in German. enjoy! :DDD

Lügen

Change it,
The faces that you put on everyday.
Plaster your empty smile across your appearance,
Mutate the way the outsiders see you.

I see the pain that drives you,
The ambitions that unravel you.
I see the pats on the back they give;
You always go home and cry in the end.

I can see you look,
Each time your sight travels
I can see you try to find
Each time you have that searching expression.

Stand back as you see the mask
Your mask; see that they all put on
The same façade. I see your amazed look
When you finally figure it out.
But I doubt you ever will.

I don't need your pity,
You who hides behind a mask;
Too afraid to face the world.
I don't need your kindness….

Why don’t you just scream at me;
Run far away, and leave me be.
I see the truth that drives you,
And the lies that mask you.

I see your broken promises,
Lying under the rooftops of your past.
I see your shattered dreams,
Visible and taunting every time you dare to close your eyes.

I can see your pain,
The guilt that makes you lose yourself.
I see the haunting happiness
That gives you a false hope for the future
That is yet to come….

Engelsflügel

2010-05-08T20:29:00.000-07:00

This was made for a good friend of mine. =). the title means "angel wings" in German. -.-' enjoy!

Engelsflügel

Today, I was walking through the alleys,
Thinking about you.
I drifted mindlessly,
Until I couldn't find a trace of the path
I seemed to have taken;
It was a dead end.

But not quite….

There were two birds out there,
One white and beautiful,
So unblemished, and surreal;
Then there was the grey one,
It was also beautiful, yet it seemed so real.
But, the grey one had a lame wing.

Before I knew it,
The white one was flying,
It went up the dark alley
And into the sky,
But it lingered in a wire,
One that held on to a pole,
Seeming to wait for the grey one.

The latter tried.
It simply tried flying up;
It fell down.
The bird then tried on and on for quite sometime.
I stood there,
Watching its effort be fruitless.

The white one also stood there,
Patiently; just simply waiting.
It broke my heart, though;
It seemed to have no sympathy,
No remorse. It didn't even go
And encourage the grey bird.

The grey one was still trying,
And it was almost sunset
Until it gave up.
I sat down and stared at it;
And it turned around and
Gazed at me; pleading, almost.

I then raised up,
And held up the grey bird.
We stood there,
The grey bird and I,
Not knowing what to do.
We waited, and it was not even dark,
The sun hadn't even set;
Even the sun seemed to wait for the grey one
To fly.

And held my hand up high,
And heaved the grey bird.
It flew, yet it seemed to have fallen.
There was a pause, and I can still picture it
In my mind,
Like it only just happened a few movements ago.

The bird flew high up,
While the white one could only
Follow in awe; in amazement.

Even I watched it in amazement,
As it flew high up,
Off toward the setting sun,
Never looking back.

Deiner Gnade

2010-04-18T18:44:00.000-07:00

Deiner Gnade

I could name each

And every star in the universe

After you.

You could stand by me

And never have anyone distress you.

I could be still,

And not have my regrets

Placed before me.

You could fly across the world,

Your beauty, so unperturbed,

So untroubled. So undisturbed.

I would stand here,

And revel in all

I can….

You would glide

In your grace.

Man kind's jealousy of your

Elegance. Your agility….

And I,

I would be your sword

In bloodshed and battle.

Your shield through

Pain and war,

Suffering and scorn….

I could name

Each and every

Star after you,

Make do with every

Smile I see in you.

Zephyr

2010-03-27T19:56:00.000-07:00

Zephyr

Black skies flying overhead.

I keep walking but all I can see is

The dark clouds passing me by.

I see a broken mirror,

Shards flying in dead air.

I see a crippled mask,

Its owner crumpled to the ground.

I see crushed houses,

Their roof tops shattered in,

Their windows blocked,

Their doors with bullet holes.

I see fire surrounding

The forest in which I walk on,

Trees evaporating the smoldering dusky sky.

Flowers ablaze in the darkened zephyr.

I see their plastered smiles,

Lying though their teeth.

Pretending never works when

It's transparent.

I can see their world,

Feel their helplessness.

Trust broken in two,

Paradise twisted in all.

Radiation

2010-03-10T17:31:00.000-08:00

Radiation

The vast clouded skies darken,

Their burden falling in little droplets.

The tall trees have been shaken,

As the wind blows merciless.

The green grass turns yellow and burns.

While the once blooming flowers wither.

The deeps seas rise in their tsunamis,

And the earth cracks as lava rises,

Ashes travel in the blackened air.

Land becomes devoured by water,

And the cities sink,

The prosperous cities.

The scorched skies,

Their burden falling in acid rain.

Wild fires burning in forests;

Burnt leaves swinging back and forth.

It's not always a choice to decide,

When your own world is destroyed.

When there was everything to lose,

And nothing to gain.

Mutated humans,

In their liege.

Broken houses,

Unbreakable famine.

Violent wars

And hatred.

Radiation….

Dämmerung

2010-03-03T19:01:00.000-08:00

title means Dusk in German = )

Dämmerung

Remember the black dusk,
Where we shared our dreams?
The boundless blue sky,
The emerald sea.

Remember the meadow,
Where the white flowers bloomed.
Where we ran, chasing the blue butterflies.
Where we laid, the sun shining on our faces.

Now, I see you,
And I think that maybe,
It was all a lie.
I know I wont miss you.

I can't seem to find
The words to describe how I've felt
During those times,
When you were just there, and not truly mine.

I used to break when I saw you.
The way you smiled,
Your quiet ways of being so easily amused.
I know I wont miss you.

I remember everyday,
When I used to just shine,
Feel I was lucky, knowing you.
I know I wont miss you.

I remember your promise,
I remember it everyday.
I know I could never miss you.

No, I could never miss
Your lies and boundless smiles;
Your warm laughter and cold eyes.
No, I could never miss you.

I remember the forests
We used to hide in,
We were so small
Compared to the majestic trees.

Through the darkness that fell,
As the blue sky darkened.
No, I don't miss you.
Not one bit.

Where You Lead

2010-03-03T19:00:00.000-08:00

lol, the title took me a long time to find. =\
but yeah. = )
it's kinda short-ish...lol

Where You Lead

I think I'll stay here…
Take another breather.
Break another bridge,
Make another asperser.

Don't want to chase
Another lie,
I want to break all my ties, and
Never take another chance to smile.

Can't find my balance
In this world.
These words fly past me
And I can't find my responses.

Can't lie to me,
Knowing all that you've done.
Can't lie to you,
When only truth comes out of me. But

I'll tell you everything you want to hear,
Just this once, when there's nothing to fear.
I'll bring you everything you need,
And know that when I'm gone, I know where you'll lead.

And I, I think I'll just stay here.
I think I'll just stay here.
Watching you move on,
Watching you carry on. But

I'll tell you everything you want to hear,
Just this once, when there's no fear.
I'll bring you everything you need,
And know that when I'm gone, I know where you'll lead.
I know where you will lead….

Top Of The World

2010-03-03T18:53:00.000-08:00

Top Of The World

I know I say a lot of things,
But I can't stay this way.
You're the only thing real to me
Because of the way you are and what you say.

Things are meant to be
Said the way they're felt.
Broken hearts can't be mended
By wishing they were….

I'm walking down these streets,
They're full of memories
Both flawless, and damaged.
And I don't wanna say goodbye,
But nothing's coming out right.

You're on top of my world.
And you're the only thing
I can carry, without pain.

All I can say is I need you,
And that you're the most genuine
Thing I know.

You're the only thing I can carry
Without pain.

You're out of this world,
And I could never leave.
And I want to be all
You want in me.
Everything you want in me.

You're the only genuine thing I know,
And I won't be me without you.
Never without you.

Auszehrung

2010-02-12T17:16:00.001-08:00

idk.... Title means "Wasting Away" in German
....that's all i'll say...does it sound too....abrupt?
and it's short...= \
= O

Auszehrung

When I'm falling,
And you're catching me.
I don't know why
But I wish you were the only one to blame...
You just can't disappear from my eyes
And nothing's the same.

Could you just stand,
And never say a word?
Every time, I see you
I see you catching me.

I know this is not the best for us,
But promise that we'll be fine.
Because when I'm wasting away,
I'm wasting away for both of us.

I know I'm going to
Laugh it out
And smile along the way.
No matter how much I bleed,
I'll hide it away.
Because whenever I see you
And everything just disappears.

I've given you a rose,
A red one, too.
But don't they always dry up
And die later on?

But scatter all the petals
They're all just floating away…
Because they'll always be gone in the end.
It's always just the same.
They always float away in the end….

Retourner l'époque.

2010-02-09T19:45:00.000-08:00

The title means " Turn Back The Time" in French. = )

haha
idk if it's good or not...as always. i hope ya'll like it! = )

Retourner l'époque.

Maybe you need to try,
What was your lie for?
If you could just
Go back in time.

Baby,
I think you need to...
To find yourself,
No more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish that
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.

Didn't you see her face?
Her sad, sad delusional face?
Did you think that I'd
Take your excuses
And take you back?

What did you
Think that time?
Overlooked you lie,
Have you?

Baby,
I think you need to…
To find yourself
And no more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.

What makes you think they'll stay?
What did you find?
A broken lie.

Baby,
Don't you think that
I'll leave you once
I get you. Backed against the wall,
Couldn't let you just fall like that.
Had to tell you,
That you won't have this.

Don't let down your guard,
I'm not broken and
I wont,
Take your lie.
Baby where have you been?
Your lies and excuses,
If you could just turn back your time.

Baby,
I think you need to…
To find yourself
And no more of your lies and excuses.
Baby,
Don't you wish
You could turn back time?
And listen as
We both cry.

They wont stay with you,
No more.
I think you need to find another life.
Another lie to hide.
Another lie to live.

Vino avvelenato (Poisoned Wine)

2010-02-03T20:03:00.000-08:00

My mum asked me if i drank wine after she read this poem....LOLOLOL xD
the title is in Italian. the translation as you can see, is the " Poisoned Wine" = D
enjoy!!

Vino avvelenato (Poisoned Wine)

Here's for the one whose
Heart was more valuable than Gold.
But knew not of his love.

Here's for the one whose
Heart was made of Stone
But couldn't help his insecurity.

Here's for the one who
Couldn't see ,
Blinded by hate
And engulfed by anger.

Here's to the one
Who was too late,
Who couldn't even smile once it was over,
Who stood for too long.

Here's to the one who
Decided his love was too cheap,
Couldn't even bring himself to find her.
Here's to the him
Whose chances were too slim.
Who decided his love was too cheap
To even find her.

Here's to the one
Powerful and rich,
He knew not of happiness.
Couldn't be generous enough.

Here's to these six cursed souls,
Who realized they had nothing.
For they all lacked qualities.

Forgive me,
But I wager,
They'll all find an excuse to drink
This poisoned wine,
Before all is over.

Eons

2010-01-29T16:00:00.000-08:00

= )

Eons

It's been years,
Centuries,
Since I've felt this old.

My bones have dried
And they shake every time I move.
My muscles have become nonexistent,
And my eyes have lost their sight.

It's been millenniums since
I took back my throne,
And yet my subjects haven't gotten used to me.

It's been decades
Since I got back what's mine,
And just months since I wrote my history.

Fate tells of such a destiny,
Of a calm life
And happy days.

Fate tells of such a destiny,
The same destiny,
So tedious,
With no wars,
No differences,
No uniqueness .

There are no histories,
No accomplishments.

It's been millenniums
Since I took my throne,
As the ruler.

It's been eons,
My bones have grown weak,
And my citadels lie in ruins.

Break

2010-01-27T18:49:00.000-08:00

I have been told to make new kind of poems....from various sides and people.....so here it is.
= )

Break

To the seas that dance with such fury,
And the winds that flow in such hurry.
For the rain that falls swiftly,
And the desert that seems so timeless....

Our land, we shaped,
And the trees we created,
It was all in vain.

It was our paradise.
We were the Gods.
And the lands were our Castles.
We defined it,
We hadn't known of the limits.

Our marred perfection,
Our greed never went away.
Our indulgence to the new,
Nay respect for the old...

It breaks, our world,
It's broken.
Reflection of our marred perfection.

Break down,
Our loyalty is to ourselves,
Even now,
We know not of guilt.

Our desert has come to an end.
Our once timeless desert....
The wind has blown its sand away
And all there can be seen is the earthen floor.

Where is our land?
Our Castles,
We once so restlessly ruined?
Our creations we once loved,
But are so desolated now.

We were Gods,
Now we are nothing.
And yet,
We know not of guilt,
But of our indulgence is to ourselves,
And only
Us.

Break, dire land.
Take our Castles with you.

Break,
And show us contrition
Of what we've knowingly done....
Break.

Ich hier warten.

2010-01-21T19:08:00.000-08:00

i had this strange desire to make atleast one hopeful poem...= )
<> the title means "I wait here" in German.

Ich heir warten.

Listen as the rain sings,
The same clouds we see,
Together.

Listen as the wind blows,
Know that I am with you,
Where ever you go.

Come, come with me,
Where the stars shine,
And the sea dances in its own tune.
Where the wind is like a caress,
And the skies are never the limit.

Where the sun is ever so visible,
Yet the light is still there,
The weather is mild,
And the snow is calm.

I wait here, for you.

Listen, listen as the
Leaves sing their hymn for us.
Let them wishper
The myth of The Broken Ages.
When the wars still existed,
Where pain and suffering
Were like sisters,
Never apart,
And always inevitable.

Come with me,
Where dreams always shine.
And there is no war.
No guilt.

I wait here, for you.
I wait forever.

Mentir à moi

2010-01-17T18:03:00.000-08:00

I can honestly say i was thinking the opposite of the mood of the poem when i wrote it....= \ yeah
-.-' but here it is; please comment. = ) the title means 'Lie To Me' in French = )

Mentir `a moi

Tied with my shackles
To the ground.
Pain in my blood,
That still flows down.

Lie to me.
Tell me I'm not dying.
Lie to me.
Tell me I'm still breathing.

I've lost myself in these beautiful
Sceneries, I can't come back down.
There are angels knocking at my door,
I fear they've come to take me.
And I know it's not my time.

Lie to me.
Say you need me,
And I'll stay.
Lie to me.
Break them apart,
You're my only shield.
They've come for my soul,
And I fear they wont leave.

I fear I've lost my way
And I know I can't find myself.
I can't come back down.
I fear there's nothing left of me.

Lie to me.
Silence is too thick,
The deathbed I've created for myself.
Lie to me.
And I promise I'll stay.

Verlangsamen ( Slow Down )

2010-01-14T15:22:00.000-08:00

There are days
When the things we want seem
So far away
We can't even reach it.

And there are times,
When we know we can't
Leave,
Leave the rest of the world behind
And stay in our darkness,
No matter how much we want to.

Slow down,
Listen to your cries, and right now
Just listen to my heartbeat,
I could just stop right now.

Push away all that we've known
And all that we could ever know....
Bonds can be broken
Silver, tarnished bonds.

The fallen glasses, they
Could have just been mended. Now,
They're just broken.

Slow down,
Listen to your cries, and right now
Listen to my heartbeat,
I could just stop right now. I,
I could just stop now.

Golden skies are ours
To fly in.
Blue skies are just for dreamers.
Dreamers who never wake up.
Verlangsamen.

Insignificant

2009-11-16T17:37:00.000-08:00

Now's the time,
Put on a mask.
Let them think you're happy
As you ever were,
And light up their smile.

This is the real world,
You are insignificant
When it comes to the bigger picture.

Cloak your feelings,
And smile bright
As the camera clicks away.

Let them think
You couldn't be happier
That they've erased all the sadness in you.
Make them happy,
It's all you live for.
It's all you could ever live for.

They never see
How that pretty, little
Smile of yours never
Reaches your eyes.

This is the real world,
You are insignificant
When it comes to the bigger picture.

Cloak your feelings,
And smile bright
As the camera clicks away.

Never scream out
Or shout,
Or let them know
How you're feeling.

One day, when you leave,
They'll see it.
How your pretty little smile
Never truly reached your eyes,
But you'll be too far away to hear
Their mournful cries.

This is the real world,
You are insignificant
When it comes to the bigger picture.

Cloak your feelings,
And smile bright
As the camera clicks away.

Don't frown,
And never let them see your sorrow,
As the camera clicks away....

Teardrop

2009-11-15T08:24:00.000-08:00

I wrote this one for this project I did for English... = ) enjoy

Teardrop

Little light wishes,
Some that may never come true
Whispers that demean,
All that may come to be.

Teardrop that falls
With every emotions surreal.
Gentle my arms are,
So frail.

Gentle are my emotions,
Sadness is their nature.
Guilt of my heart
And its desires.

Teardrop that falls
With every emotions surreal
Gentle my arms are,
So breakable.

Light oh! It comes....
See the wishful words
I've made,
Oh! Will we ever be
What we used to be again?

Gentle are my emotions
Sadness is their nature,
Guilty, my heart is
With its desires.

Teardrop that falls
With every emotions surreal
Gentle my arms are
So friable.

So fragile.
Don't leave me with my
Teardrop...

Perfect...

2009-11-12T14:30:00.000-08:00

Have you ever realized that things will never change?
The destruction that will never be lifted,
The wishes that will never come to be,
And the promises that will never be kept;
All the while,
You're wishing you could be someone else.

The scars will never be erased,
And the reasons for all that
Were the emotions all along,
While you just sat there...
Wishing you could be someone else;
Someone who knew all the right things to say and do,
Someone who could erase all the worries left behind,
Someone who knew better.....

All the words that may have been spoken are gone,
And whatever that was said is buried inside,
Where no one can reach and mend.

Sometimes goodbye will never be for the better.
And all the while
You wish you could be someone else for a day,
Just a day.....
And pick up all the pieces....
Rebuild the bridges burned overtime....

I broke that little glass rose you gave me,
It meant nothing after a while...
I tore down your paintings of me,
They were never genuine...
Somehow I got caught up
In between your lies and promises,
And then everything seemd to be shattering
All around me.

The illusions that were always there,
Your words that could never amount up to anything.
All the while,
I kept on wishing I was someone else;
Someone who knew all the things to make it all better,
Someone who knew all the right things to do and say,
Someone perfect.....

Carousel

2009-10-05T17:07:00.000-07:00

Look around my carousel,
Do you see how it goes round and round?...
This is an addiction I intend to keep,
An addiction I can't bear to lose....

It kills me,
I know,
You know.

Do you see my carousel?
Its swiftness?
I know you want my addiction
Maybe you'll find your own way there
To the silent bliss
That's out to destroy us.

Hey! Look at my carousel…
When will it ever slow down
Enough for me to get off?
Maybe If I find a way
To make it stop,
Maybe my addiction will be easier to lose then..….

My addiction,
Gaze at its ecstatic rapture
So beautiful
So gruesome….
Oh! When will it ever end?
When will it stop?

My carousel….

Trapped

2009-09-05T13:27:00.000-07:00

Hands,
Holding her soul
While she sits bound in invisible shackles.
Akin to a caged bird,
She cries for freedom
But no one can hear her.
The darkened abyss of the world around her.

The hands hold her captive,
As they protect her.
They're her only home,
The only place she knows she can go to.
She's trapped.

Her soul cries for freedom.
Her despair so clear cut.
She wishes for something she doesn't know about,
Something she never had a chance to see.

Hands,
Holding her soul,
Protecting her
Holding her captive.

Trapped.

Innocence

2009-05-06T20:40:00.000-07:00

Childhood is a sunny spring,
Of sweet scented flowers
And the sunny hills.
Childhood is a rollercoaster,
Having difficult ups and downs
But many happy endings.
Childhood is getting in trouble,
And not being responsible for it.
Childhood is dancing in the rain
With no worry for the future.
Childhood is believing in everything,
And never doubting the
Frightening stories that you hear.
Childhood is getting up in a weekday morning
And pretending to be sick so
You won’t have to go to school.
Childhood is a memory of the earliest
And the happiest times of your life.
Childhood is innocence.

Mirror

2009-04-14T11:42:00.000-07:00

Parallel universe,
Staring into my eyes.
Deep dark secrets
They all wish to hide.
Broken as a mirror,
I see what she is
Beckoning to a terror---
Dream or a nightmare?

Pitter patter of the rain as a
Nightmare breaks.
Silent as a snake
But terrified more than anything,
I awake.
I make myself clear,
Changeable as day.
Though I am not a seer,
I see what lies as my fate.

I may not know who or what
I am,
But I am different
And so I am alone.
Wrong may be my last,
Though I am not sure.
Lost silence may be gone,
but at least it used to be pure.
Glasses thus breakable,
though as long lasting as memories
as they fade into a pass by of life...
They disappear

~haikus are not really my preference but i did it anyways

Centipede

An armored body
Offering dangerous bites
Resident of the tropic.

Fog

A shrouding mist
Thick white sea of humid water
Falling into the city

Dandelions

Soft, white puffy balls
Wavy, sharp yellow petals
A tooth of a lion

~in French dandelion means "a tooth of a lion"~

Metallic Iron

~This poem was written as a social-studies project. I thought it would be a good decision to post it. so please tell me what you think!! = D
thankyou!!~

Metallic Iron

I walk down the corridor, leaving
Uneasy feelings behind. Remembering the
Experiments I've done. One after another.

Closing my eyes, and
Seeing the ones walking with me,
giving me confidence.

My father, walking alongside of me. His
face confident and eyes sparkling but
Firm. Looking ahead.

Opening my eyes, I'm
In my office, sitting. Presentation
All but incomplete. Too much stress.
I let myself relax.

Closing my eyes once more, I
See my grandfather, same as I've always
Remembered him. He sits down infront of
Me. The same eyes and the same smile as
My father, but this time, looking at me.

The imaginary smell of
Metallic iron reaching my
Nose. I rise up, and look around.
In my lab.

I may have no chalk or
Marker to teach students.
But I've a pen to write,
And a notebook to be written in.
I "teach" what I've
Discovered with it.

To the out-lookers.

The Kite

2008-09-28T09:59:00.000-07:00

~I wrote this poem because of this picture my mom showed me from http://www.mysansar.com/?p=3165. It was about this kid trying to fly his kite. I looked at the kid and his shadow. I really liked it, so I imagined what maybe happening, and i wrote a poem with the picture in mind. i hope you like it!! ~

The Kite

He stands there,
trying to make his hope fly,
His shadow mimicking him,
trying to succeed along with him.

He jumps around,
to try as he might to create support,
His shadow dancing with him,
though with more grace.

He is a child,
powerless in some ways,
But powerful in many.
He jumps one last time,
the wind picks up the kite,
His hope soars in the sky,
Gliding gracefully.

Though his body and shadow,
Maybe trapped on the floor
Of the face of this Earth,
but his spirit flies with his hope,
his kite.

~We don't fly,
Our spirits do...
with a little support.~

A Red Rose Frames Me

2008-07-05T15:48:00.000-07:00

Sightless and shy,
A cocoon woven around me.
Diary of the events of my life,
Imperious upon me.
Keen to keep all i have left;
Simple happiness surrounds me.
Having to posses my own life,
Abandoning the commands that sap my strength.

A blazing fire surrounds me
Confident in those i know and remember,
Half-hearted laughter bothering me
Above all i know.
Riddles of life given to me,
Yearning to love all i know.....
....A red rose frames me...
