Beyond The Horizon

Looking for the narrow source of light
Lost in the cobwebs of frozen time
Vain anger at the flying bird
Why was I left behind?

My shoulders…no longer a safe perch
A deep sigh from the hollowed heart…
Becoming the wind beneath her wings
Carrying her far away…

My eyes are numb…
I no longer feel the light…
Here, I am waiting…
For eternity to end…

Will I ever wake from this slumber?
Will I ever feel the healing touch…
Who knows…I stare beyond the horizon…
Waiting for light lost in the cobwebs of frozen time…

Confused

I feel the fire within…
Red hot embers
Covered with useless ash of self-restraint

I see the anger…
I look into the eyes of a person…pushed too far
Yet holding on…

The broken teeth of a caged tiger
The anguish of a ‘dam’-ed river
The urge to break free

I wonder why, I stop
I ponder why, I don’t fight…
Sometimes I wonder, why I wonder…

Useless circumnavigation
In this endless moor of civilization
Helplessly lost, yet hopeful of finding a way out

Now, I have a dream…
A desire…to once stand
And breathe…for me

Sorry

Crushed under heavy boots
The last remnants of my ideals
Broken by mistake…crushed by choice
Yet, I have no regrets

Your cold shoulder…but unfathomable love
And the taste of blood in my lips
Lingers on…in the air between us
The gap widened…the bridge lies broken

Snow settles on my eyebrows…
Is death ever peaceful?
All the children of the sun…
Do we ever choose sadness…yet why it comes?

Things have to be forgotten
But they stay on…forever in my mind
Your uncared for tears
Your unseen grief that mutilated your soul

I have loved with purity unbound
Yet I feel like an undeserver
I have given a lot…yet I want to give more
Here I apologize to my last hope…
