Looking in a mirror, what do you expect to see?
Looking at glass, youll see through what is there, to what is behind it
Looking at darkness youll see nothing, not even what is there
Looking at nothing, youll see the absence of what should be there.
When I am introspective, I see a broad expanse of gray and chaos. It is unsettling.
Feeling trapped in a body that will not yield, but only ever slaves to my wishes,
Feeling abnormal in a world that caters to my silver tongue,..
Feeling as though control is out of my grasp, but within reach
Spontaneous tears tell me something is deeply an
Life is an unsewn field,
Rows neatly lined and waiting,
Grooves patiently prepared,
Unmarred surface awaiting creating.
If every moment was grown,
And each experience were alive,
Gracefully woven in soil,
Even the moments we barely survive.
A happy time would be a sunflower,
A sad one perhaps a bed of thorns,
A triumphant moment, a myriad of colors,
In this garden, your life takes form.
Gazing into this canvas,
Is looking into a sea of memories,
The steps taken always planting,
A collision of all of life's stories.
Amidst the chaos of the storm,
Or the serenity of the sun,
Each garden stands to show,
The moment it shines by
His mind is like poetry, his hands cool and steady as the ice under the moon. Speaking as easily as some breathe, his tale was a myriad of images, weaved together with accuracy befitting a great novelist, but one in which the truth became merely a sparring partner of that which stood across the mirror. Although he knew in his darkest solace that all of the many strings of possibilities could unravel, broken and ruined, if his tale were not accepted as canon, his eyes were calm as the surgeon nursing a paper cut. No part of his visage gave way that what he spoke was lost in what he knew to be truth, and what he felt when he looked into the
I onced lived in a place called serenity,
My nose felt the dancing flowers sing joyfully,
My fingers tingled with anxious excitement,
Never blinking, my eyes sought out eternity.
Destruction and chaos imminent was a sign of the shadow,
Growing and seething, terror was common and would flow,
In passionate exasperation, the river flooded,
The skies tried to hide, covering the ground in snow.
I once loved a place called serenity,
My lips tasted the sweet joy of clarity,
Wretching on the ground covered in ash,
My ears were the first to truly see.
The lifeblood of my heart slowly paled as it died,
Imperfection pushed the spacious worl
Are you ready? The excitement in his voice was almost as tangible as the heavy pack on his back, his body feeling much like he was in pajamas far too tight, but comfortable somehow.
I guess its now or never! Her eyes lit up with a spark that could only be seen if one was truly looking for it, the wind whipping through the open door on the plane, causing her to blink nearly constantly.
Lets do it then! He grinned while placing the goggles over his eyes, to protect him as they stood, holding her hand for a moment as he looked at her, and mouthed the words
Well, once I walked into a store, completely with a desire for oranges. While I looked around it's nonsensically organized aisle, I spotted a piece of cheese stapled to a wall, with the words 'call me Joey' written in Ketchup on it.
I walked slowly toward it, ignoring the dog nipping on my heels and the sticky feeling of under cleaned, and candy dried floors, and looked largely at it's smelly texture, the cheese being the object of my inspection and interest.
I gingerly placed my finger over the somewhat decayed corner of the yellow piece of cheese on the wall, and slowly tugged on it. The dog no longer nipped my heels, he had wandered off
