Man Can Fly

 Wrestling with yourself

 Fighting who you should be

Indecisive on the course of reality

In a dream world you live

Struggling to exist

Nothing is making any sense

In the world you now subsist

In your mind somewhere lost

Trapped in a demented sphere

Crying out for help but

No one hears

Listening to voices that

 Are not there

Only in your mind do you hear

Whispers’ telling you lies

That man can fly

Going through a transformation

On a spiritual journey

Opening your mind to

Unknown entities as your

 Mentality is rocked with

 More confusion

Disillusioned to what is real

And you are asking yourself

Will I ever heal?

In the abyss you call home

Praying for the norm to

Return to your life

The whispers continue

To overpower your thinking

Voices becoming louder

Mingling with tears

You cry from frustration and pain

Relief will not come

As they tell you

Man can fly come join us

 

 

 

 

 

 

She Never Forgot

 

She never forgot the little boy whose big brown eyes

Shined with wonderment

Looking through the eyes of innocence

Wishing, dreaming, hopeful

Later in life she would hear of the

Troubles that followed him around

Two souls created him

He was Tarzan and she was his Jane

They loved him but destroyed him

But there was one to always hold his hand

And now he’s an angel in someone’s dreams

Together the three of them rest with the

Others that have fallen asleep 

 

20

Traversing this earth

Whispers of sadness

Evolving into remembrance

Nearer to thee my heart sings

Time has once again raised its head

You’re not here but never forgotten

Twenty

       KRS 

Junes Tears

Little drops from heaven

Each one a remembrance

Of a day the light in my life suddenly vanished

And here I sit now reflecting on a time

I felt would never heal a time when my tears

Were my bed and the questions in my head

Kept asking why my light had to go away

Barely a beginning didn’t have the chance

To grasp the meaning of tomorrow when he was

Fighting for today

The tears fall with each remembrance

A heart breaks with each reflection

My pain so ingrained in my being I didn’t

Believe I’d ever breathe again

Still I existed to be the fortress for visitors

Who saw what they wanted a soul strong and unbending

But inside part of me was lost and in the shadows my

Tears were my ghosts as my pain never let me forget

June tears would always be commemoration of the day

My light was no more

Jaded Love

Love is a complicated emotion

Betrayal defines the intricate lines

Between love and hate

Jaded perceptions of

What love is supposed to mean

Should mean, could mean

Loses its definition

And clarity becomes blurred

With right and wrong

Byzantine inclinations lure away

Innocence trapping it in defiled

Annotations of excuses

Wrong Turn

Turn left no take a right

Directions on sign

Obscured to vision

Is this my test?

Left lane or right

Fork in the road make a U-turn

What’s next?

Damn navigation system is speaking

In a language that doesn’t exist

Pull out the road map

Now I’m even more confused

Dead end a head keep on driving

Put on the breaks

This will not be my fate

To end on a wrong turn
