I wait

Posted by enreal on

My face stings from the tears I yearned for… my mind splits from the knowledge I ran towards… my heart pains for the love I hid from… My soul aches simply to go home… 

 

Take me home… to my love… 

Free me from my mind. The mind of judgement with burdens too heavy… with implications too grand… 

Free me from my expectations. The expectations of others crash before my eyes… shedding shards that bleed my heart… that bleed my mind…

Free me from my tears… Shed for healing, yet come reeling in with fears

 

Escape these thoughts… throbbing through my head

Escape these visions…  with veils and shadows falling in my stead

 

Take me home… to where they wait with open arms… take me now… before I do more harm…

 

My eyes heavy… I see my love…

My mind is cloudy… as the sky above

For now I wait until dawn 

When the sun rises

All will be gone…

 

 

Until then my love… 

I wait

Yesterday’s Tomorrow

Walking towards tomorrow,

Slowly coming to a pause

Staring at the face of a stranger

One who remembers,

One who is lost…

“Leave behind the facade,” She whispers

“Forget today the meaning of why, remember who you are, wake the Soul inside…”

 

Walking away from yesterday

Taking moments time to reflect

A glimpse of an old face, a distant place

One which has yet to rest.

“A minute seems like years,” He states

“Moments in eternities, time is an uncertainty…”

“Remember my friend, and take this to your stage… remember my life, for meaning is worth little when the play has yet to arise…”

 

Standing in this moment,

Before the fork of time.

One path brings tomorrow,

One can bring back time…

 

For now I shall wait at yesterday’s tomorrow

For now I shall stay,

In Now…

Connected

Life with Death                              

Anger with acceptance

Peace with hate                              

Knowledge with ignorance

Happiness with despair                

Fear with freedom

Together yet alone                          

Purposeful yet lost

 

In the smallest of fragments we are one

In the most hidden particles we touch

In the most remote thoughts we meet

We may be blind

We may be deaf

We may be simple

We may be blessed


The war rages on… the battles fought for ignorance… the struggle for one to see… the veil and mirror break… one day we will see. Connected we may be…

You know

Posted by enreal on

You know where it is 

The window to your mind

The gateway to your soul

 

You know where to find

The passage to your heart

A peace to make you whole 

 

You know where to heal

Within the fibers of your body

In the depths of your being

 

You know of the pain

You know of the sorrow

You know the emptiness

Perhaps shall be filled tomorrow

 

Somewhere within you know

One day it will show

All in turn will be

The answers you know

And wish them to be

 

It is here

The answer you know

It has always been here

It is now beginning to show

Shining ever so brightly

Out of your soul

 

The coward and the prince

Posted by enreal on

 

Come look for me, for I have not the strength to leave

Come look for me, for I have no will, no freedom

Come look for me, for I wait in my tower, a prisoner of my mind

 

Afraid for love

Afraid for pain

Alone in pride

Alone in shame

 

Come find me, I feel as though my eternity has passed

For I have not the courage to forever forsake the mask

Come find me, it is all that I ask

 

Be it Love… simple it may be

A coward awaits the prince, 

All fools for love

Never shall they see

Oh bliss, 

come and share the veil with me…

The Path

Posted by enreal on

Walk the path

Let not the path go

Wait for guidance

Leave your soul to grow

 

The path a journey

The journey a path

Choices

Decisions

Try as you may never to ask

 

The cycle is infinite

Proving life is unlimited

Choices forsaken

Show the path never taken

 

Then comes the time

When we reach the end

Where the path winds to the sea

We walk solemnly to be

Where one sits and gazes to the horizon

Watching for the epiphany 

Counting the sands of time

All in all

The Path was kind

Sacrifice

Posted by enreal on

 

For my guardians,
are my friends,
my angels

For my angels,
show my path,
my destiny

For my destiny,
is my life,
my choice

For my choice,
is to feel,
to hurt

For to hurt,
is to live,
to love

For to love,
is to give,
to sacrifice

For to sacrifice,
is to accept,
to be

For to be
is the gift
to me
