Day 348 - Staring Match

I had a thousand questions to ask you

Before I stood face to face with you

Now staring until you have the answer

To every single one of them will have to do

You seemed to have so much to say

When I was young and in my mind we would play

Now it seems you do not possess a tongue

But from my face your eyes do not stray

If ever I could manage to break this gaze

And untangle the mysteries so like a maze

I would leave this place once and for all

And yet all I can do is stay here in this daze

Day 136 - A Little Magic

If I could just have a breath of fresh air

Swirl fairy dust into my dark hair

I could soar on a breeze of rest

Feeling at last I was my very best

But here I sit awaiting such luck

Because ultimately I feel stuck

In the picture frame mid-stride

Going nowhere and wanting to hide

Because what if the fairy dust isn't meant for me?

Then what will my life turn out to be?

I just need that little ounce of magic

For now I feel incomplete and tragic

Day 115 - Repeating

Repeating

Every single crossing line

Says that I'm fine, say I am fine

Blurring was the first sign

Nothing was mine, nothing is mine

The blue sky hidden away

Not for today, no not today

It is locked in things we couldn't say

Take me away, just let me away

Trees grow strong and tall

After it all, after it all

I ask in every breath and call

How did I fall? Why did I fall?

Day 104 - Dark Daze

Dark Daze

In this world of gray

Keep your eyes bright

Breathing, come what may

Searching, for the light

That is the path to take

If any life you wish to make

When the clouds seem dark

Remember lessons learned

That each can make his mark

Without too many wicks burned

But the black shadow of the tree

For now is all that you dare to see

The light filters on through, still

Though it seems so very small

All depends on the bend of will

Not just great passion's call

For those who hear but never listen

Shall never see the light glisten
