Figments of My Reality
A sea of broken traffic lights,

All figments of my reality.
I can't count the times
When my heart was crushed:
It feels too constant.
Too steady, too easy.
It all...

The banks empty:
Lost, forgotten.
There never was
Anything there.
Could I step once
Over that mount?
Like the prophet,
I fear I won't.
Ends are certain.
The middles, not.
That is a truth.
Or so I'm told.
I grow too old.
And yet I'm...

Wait
What was I to do?
Wouldn't it all have been in vain?
So all I did was...Wait.
I was feeling blue.
It all was always the same.

There are those lucky folk who carry their sins for themselves, and only themselves. It is these folk who are blessed, for they merely have their own ills and evils to bear before they may pass into the beyond.
I am not so lucky.

_Yo Pensé_
Me siento el enojo y el temor
Extiende por todo alrededor
Hay así mucho dolor
Y es triste
Todavía hay alegría
Y hay sueños
Nosotros todos esperamos ver
Más allá de la oscuridad
Y todavía yo me pregunto
¿Por qué es así? ...

_Words_
What are words
Written across the page?
What emotions
Are written into these words?
Why now
At this moment in time
Do we choose to write?
What inspires?
What makes us know
See, feel, understand,
To write words?

sitting alone in a dark bathroom tub lay
lit by the flame of one candle

no one here to stop
no one here to need me
no one her to miss me
sitting alone in a dark bathroom tub think
lit by the flame of one candle...
