The traveler stopped for restthe sky a silver hue,the sun setting in the westthe waters, a dark blue.
A crisp fall morning. Waking up just before the sun rises. Watching the steam of a freshly brewed cup of coffee billow through the air. The scent of a freshly lit candle fills your lungs, seeing it's flicker from afar.
In the biting cold I walk, Barefoot and in tattered attire, My dirty pants, ripped at the knees, Folded at the waist and tied to my body By an old and dirty rope coming apart, This is me, this is morning,

    ...Listen    It is when immersed in a moment of silence    that all the universe breaks forth in song    and I a recipient    simply sit in awe    of the wondrous symphonic orchestrations
    The rustic life, pastoral scenes,    the basis of idyllic dreams    the simple ways of nature come,    its harmony in total sum.    These country settings, warm and real,
We spend endless nights wandering around for a simple answer nowhere to be found. We scream and yell, cry and swear that love is all we need but it is never what we receive.
I've been breaking hearts for far too long
What we are
It is futile to cling to something so fictitious. The world fades away. White.
A long swing hangs low,
Quiet is the observer Motionless in kaleidoscopic torment. I thought until thought was meaningless. “Grab the pen! Grab it, you coward!” A ceaseless voice streams Through an intravenous drip.
Darkness creeps in from every corner. Gnawing into your soul. Fear of the world around you,
Sorrow written with the tears tracing your skin, Desperately shedding the agony left unspoken. Sorrow that slowly consumes you from within, Greedily slicing apart the heart that once dreamt.   
I feel. Unspoken words I feel a wrath beyond my state   Whether to a walk with or without I can't let go. I can't do so The dark throughout the void
(White hon
Numbing and naked,   Beguiled by the sullen sea.   Tidal your waves relentlessly   And pour down on me,   Your misery.  
I close my eyes and imagine flight.
A love is something that should cause no tears I had my share of hopeless sighs and yet I'm free of care without a cause to fear
Strength is now only a word Mock me again I know now that love is lost  Dreams are ashes in the air All that is beauty inside is no longer It is now a rugged mountain  Of no hope
Sometimes I feel loneliness in my soul, loneliness that even with people around me it can’t be removed A loneliness that I have since December Not even with the funniest joke will this great solitude purge.

Sometimes
These are the heart-shaped scars my lovers leave.
Empty, solitary, realxed, and let go. The inner floosy of my heart is free to close her eyes and rest. I usually see one other joining my personal solitary confine. Not today though;
The sound shut out from a crowded room Hearing one note after another, clear and smooth Calm, Serene Only when that noise enters From the crowds of people Laughter, Chatter Do I feel completely alone
Oh there is a bliss in solitude There is beauty in peace And content in silence No more wanting,  not needing but having  and loving

I roam from here to thereremaining discontent.My heart won't call this place a home,It must stay unattached.Everything is so unreal,I know it won't be long.Slowly I will drift away,

Can I be understood I wonder I am so awfully unique The good and bad of it is so plain My voice makes no thunder My view is too terribly bleak My reality too much to blame On something so horribly cheap
I saw a million people Standing on a hill, Under the grey and square sky. When I went to ask them, What they were doing, They remained silent.  
Seeking validation Like a penny on the street How many pounds of complacency before We forget to eat Walking through this Void of regression   We are blind to The subtle conversations

Sitting in an empty room with nothing but me Enclosed by four walls that stare at me With no mercy or sympathy they stare With menacing eyes they stare  
As I sit on the cool beach sand, my toes greet the brisk lake water. I close my eyes while I breathe in the crisp, clean, morning air, as I search for the light through the thick early fog. I can hear the loving call of a loon to its mate.
I remember once, on a kayakpaddling down a river:my movements were the only ripples. Far from the white waterseven the trees are silent,and the fish stay deep.
Running deep The Still Trapped down to nil Break out, refrain to scream and shout Fuscoferuginous rhythm weeps Agnate to sheep, in sleep Coveting not to keep the meek Unable to leace and miss

Loneliness is a silent killer. It lingers in the darkness, Amidst shadows of remorse. Under feelings of joy, Behind eyes of sorrow. Between fingers upon wrist, Spilling through steel and flesh.
Solitude.

A stressful room inside a restless house I sit with noise, never sleeping I walk through the room scattered with paper Each piece resembling trash littered upon the pavement
"Maybe today will be different," I think "Maybe things will change," I hope "Maybe something good will happen," I pray "Maybe today is the day it will all turn around." Convincing is hard to do
If I’d rather watch Will I ever rather roam? If I’d rather dwell on futures Will there ever be just one? If I never talk about it Will they leave me here alone? If I never Is rather a choice?
Waging war on a futile society Where we still discover The same things repetitively Reducing our knowledge to none As we take on a lifestyle based upon A culture of solitude Where all one needs is oneself
My name is subject to change; I stray among the others, freezing in their shadows. This beating; the beating of my heart. Pulsating with courage. These trembling hands, they'll be the hands of a hero.
