Nothing

Wednesday, April 16^th, 2014

N is for…

Nothing:

Nothing

Empty and hollow

Blank

Staring back at me

The world is my canvas

And I have nothing to paint

But I shall find my way

All I have to do

Is start with something

Anything

Add a little blue, perhaps?

Mix it with a yellow, maybe?

Maybe mix blue with red?

Create a hue of purple?

It only takes one step

Just one

To colorize a blank canvas

To turn nothing

Into something

Lies

Monday, April 14^th, 2014

Lies you tell

Set a spell

That you begin

When you think you win

Underneath it all

When settle dust fall

Remembering when

Finding your pen

Karma catches on

Soon you’ll be gone

The treachery

The thievery

The truth will set you free

If you could only see

But if it’s lies you still tell

See what awaits in hell

A Different View

A Different View

As I have now chosen to treat myself kind
Conflagration the property of my mind

I find some fragments of the memory near
It's a deafening tone I must force to not hear

 Like the echolalia of the parrot, mimicking my move
I must not learn to get back into that groove

I must move into the direction of the healing
And learn to become hooked on that feeling

Take that lens cap off and see from different views
It's not all what it seems; not all are dusty hues
