some people burn
so brightly that
they flame out
too soon
as if their frail
physicalities house
a double portion
of soul
and this life
simply can’t
contain
them

Literature
quarter life crisis
skating across
the thin manipulation
on pens sick with the birthday jitters
hell-bent on spilling free
into the trials
of a torn tomorrow
I keep asking myself
when I will walk away
though I'm free of reservations
I sit wrong;
legs dangling
like my own
internal inquiry
is it wrong?
to tire of treading this water
this is bound to end
in me
carrying myself
toward a truth
that will set me
falling
I have no clever thoughts today
I have no urge to write today
drying out
like a thorn bush
or a tumble weed
in the sun
one spark away
from a burst of flames
watching
situations grow
Literature
Have you seen me?
I walk lightly,
still waking myself up,
it must be the egg shells,
stuck in my feet,
I know,
Im dirty,
despite
these six months clean,
in a dressing room
trying on
my own outfit
differently,
sure, my life could use some change,
this cashier just keeps ignoring me,
my eyes have lost
their flame
funny how I always feel

Stolen
Stolen...dreams
Altered...realities
People...begging for release!
But it seems that no matter,
Where they turn,
They can never find their peace
It's stolen away,
Driving them to their knees!
(Stolen...dreams)
What are we doing?
What are we saying?
And where are we going to?
You say "Why does this matter?"
"Our dreams are shattered"
And hold out empty hands,
As your proof
What is stolen from one of us,
Is stolen from all of us,
And those empty hands...
Are the proof
Stolen...lives
Eyes opened...in surprise!
Meaning...hidden in disguise!
And it seems that no matter,
How much we beg and plead,
We see it blown away,
