Life passing by

I stare out the window,
I see the dying grass
that summer has fried.
I sip my coffee
and wonder
"Is my life just passing me bye?"
It worries me at most,
but I try to forget,
I read my book
and put myself in the
 characters life.
It helps with the worrying,
but not with the nonexistent life.

World Predicaments

Laying on the warm summer grass,
I stare up at the sky,
and think of the world,
how it is, how it was,
Has it always been this troublesome,
people lying, cheating, being cruel to one another.
Its hard to take in all the troubles of the world,
but there is a silver lining.
People who care, love, share, and help one another.
There may be problems, but there is always
someone waiting to help pick you up off the floor.
So,
keep your head up, love.
And keep your eyes wide open,
you'll discover the world you want,
and love will over power hate..
it just takes time
and faith.

You and I

Your skin
Slightly caressing mine,
Your toes playing with my feet,
Your smile playing with my mind.
Being here with you,
Is better than any birthday present
I could ever receive.
Just kiss me one more time,
So that this moment can last forever.

Pain.

Have you ever been in so much pain
that you want to just break down
and cry?
You know it won't help,
but you have no other choice,
you feel your first tear drop,
than another, and another.
You want to sob, and scream.
But you can't.
You try to think back to a time
when you weren't in this pain,
but it seems impossible.
So you sleep,
hoping that your dreams
will help you escape this
miserable pain.
And it does...
but then you wake up.

An old woman's tale.

I ponder my existence,
as I lay in bed one starry night.
I think of all the many things I could have been,
that I wanted to be.
And I wonder if I let my talent go to waste,
I am no longer young,
I am old, and grey.
I let my heart escape my soul,
One dark and gloomy day.
I've seen my friends come, and go,
I've had children, and seen their children grow.
I no longer expect my heart to beat,
but it continues to fight on.
I am weak, but I grow fonder and fonder
of the life that I once had.
Until I see a star, fly into my room.
And take me on a trip,
I see my life from the start,
to what I assume,
is now the
end.

Corrupt Darkness

I feel the darkness overwhelming me,
It's corrupting me internally.
I try to run,
But it surrounds me,
with eerie silence.
It tries to imprison me,
But I am to strong.
I break down my barriers,
and let the lightness in.

The darkness no longer
shadows my day dreams.
