Written with thoughts of Ace overseas. To liquid born, from patterns formed... the future worth fighting for. A belief that war, while ugly, is necessary.
Futures (Lover's Plea)
Softly shining light below
stars still beckon across the sea
showing things I'll never see
Recalling times of years ago
Perfect past within turned grey
flowers falling and judgment binds
hidden truths take blood to find
By your side forever I'll stay
Through the blowing dirt and sand
softly is heard a lover's plea
when you're done come back to me
'Gainst the world together we'll stand
Nightmares cease replaced by love
a monster never have you been
you made the world safe again
Futures borne from patterns above

Ground
A 'read and respond' type of verse... haven't done this in much too long, but I like the way things turned out... sometimes a little inspiration is needed :)
Ground
Unsteady ground lies beneath
empty fields of sand
watching you drown by my hand
falling underneath
Illusions scream soft their lies
never knowing truth
lost in ever-loving youth
growing oft more wise
One more trip around we take
til our days of death
understanding found in breath
fairy tale in wake
I feel you still, all around
angst and love akin
it is from here we doth begin
on unsteady ground

Set Free
Not done, not right, not right now...
Set Free
This maybe-love has me crying
tears of joy and seas of sadness.
Deep within I feel like flying,
crashing, laying down and dying.
Death beckons you and calls to me
in dark of night by moon and stars.
Things as they are should never be,
no time remains to set you free.
Free from all that holds and binds you;
misery caused by one held dear.
Descending now, thoughts come unglued,
taken, twisted, perhaps abused.

Three Days
A year ago I thought "only a year from now...."
Three Days
Three days to go
a year ago
we would have walked
a leaf-laden path
in the cold
refreshing
rejuvenating
cold
Three days to go
a year ago
I would have danced
a star-struck path
into your arms
death-dealing
soul-saving
arms
Three days to go
a year ago
you would have traced
a sand-stormed path
into my arms
non-judging
just-holding
arms
Three days to go
a year ago
we would have forged
a moon-lit path
into forever
redeeming
conceiving
forever

Lost and Found
On a path to finding myself...
Lost and Found
Haunting dreams show forth their truth
waking moments fade in time
Lost from self, from playful youth
found in depths of sleeping mind
Longing heart draws strength from sun
rain and snow and leaves and sky
Lost from self, from child-like fun
found in depths of gazing eye
Mending soul finds peace at last
'lone in thought to courage find
Lost from self, from doubting past
found in hope of better times

Home
Ghosts of a girl lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss her so
Child-like wonder brightens her face
when fingers find themselves enlaced
with those of one whom she holds dear
who keeps her safe, with naught to fear
Never letting her feel alone
she found her one, her heart, her home
Ghosts of a boy lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss him so
Strength and Honor his virtues true
always pushing his limits new
His girl beside, ever in love
he spreads his wings, soaring above
the fire inside, yearning to roam
returning oft, to her, his home
Ghosts of home lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss it so
Life and laughter felt deep inside
fairy-tale love could never hide
from hearts and souls who became one
each time they met, mistakes undone
Together take on fears unknown
to protect this, their love, their home

27 Days
Fierfek.... the dreams that come just before daybreak... The restless mornings that follow... Why?
27 Days
Red and black
Fireflies and dancing
Butterflies and dreaming
Innocent hopes
Soft spoken at night
Imports and Muscle Cars
Metal and Techno
Boy and girl
Giggly "arguments"
Just to have them
Jack and Sally
Drakengard and PSO
Mac'n'cheese and PBJ
Bonding together
Preparing for forever
27 days...
The end of a beginning
And the beginning of an end
