The Key
Scribbled thoughts
On scraps of paper
Litter these streets,
As I search,
For the answer
I had found time ago
And tossed away carelessly,
The key,
To freedom.

Thoughts
Time shall pass, and I
Shall slowly, silently, drown
In a sea of thoughts.

Leap of Faith
Some time ago, I took a leap of faith from the highest peak I knew.
You see, when looking down below at the world beneath a mountain, you want nothing more then to finally be there. To finally feel the reality of your future wrap around you in a warm embrace, brought to you on the winds rustling through the leaves below. You want to feel the scars of your past fade, washed away in the running waters of the future you dreamed of; the future that now lies at the base of this mountain.
So you jump.
Jump towards the life and the world you had dreamed of, without realizing the consequences. Without realizing that down there, no one can see you, and no one will catch you. That in reality, the world below is dead and barren. That your dreams were never more than just dreams. And that now you’re falling, and it’s all your fault.
Some time ago, I took a leap of faith from the highest peak I knew,
And I wish someone had stopped me.

Eagle
My ribcage
Has become
A birdcage
For an eagle,
Infuriated and
Familiar to me,
From within,
It strikes its bone prison,
Until it can spread its wings,
And leave behind a shattered skeleton.
Source: entrappedthoughts
I am clawing at the walls of this prison,
Screaming at the top of my lungs,
For escape,
For freedom,
But no one sees me,
And no one hears me,
And no one notices the blood
As it pools about my feet.

Speck of Life
I want to be lost
In the city tonight,
Lost among the lights,
I want to be
Just another
Fuzzy face between
The flashes
And the signs,
Just another
Nameless
Speck of Life.

Truth
She slips away
Between the silk rays
Of the sunset,
As my vision blurs
On the horizon,
And her shadow
Slowly
Disappears.

Shadows
Slipping in and out
Between the conversations,
And the crowds,
And the chaos,
No one sees me
Slipping away
Into the shadows
Of my own mind,
Until I’m lost in my own world.

Movement
Shuffling feet,
Beat against the dead earth,
And I can feel them,
Drumming,
Against my bones,
Now aching for some way to
Stop the beating
And drumming
And shuffling,
Aching for some way
To stop the movement.

Thoughts
I’m not really sure why I still have this blog.
I used to post writing because I had things to say,
I needed to get stuff off my mind.
Lately, though, I’ve had nothing to say or no words to express what I want to say.
I’m not sure if this is just a phase,
I kind of hope it is.
