Our Hills Where Hell, They Lead To Heaven

In a Time. before the Rains
frozen inside of the places i have lived
and slightly merged to all of the pain
a deep weight has settled in my soul on days i have believed i was strong
strong enough to walk out and smile with my heart on my sleeve
smart enough to grasp the concepts of pain in my heart, body, and mind
Old enough and bold enough to stand up to the fiercest of trial
and then again i was just musing about what i would do the next time i had
a breakdown, or breakthrough
tears stream, and receed into the deep
nostile stinging, holding my breath to snatch another tear from being seen
some see bodies and feel a longing for an encounter behind closed doors
but it would be nice for someone to just hold your hand, today
walking barefoot on the sand
snapping back into the reality of,
that not being the case
its not the same body, not the same grace
so i quiver at the chance to be unseen
or , maybe, the opportunity to lean. again
on someone
on something
that God has made visible
a tree of life in the shape of a lady wisdom
in the shape of things to come

State of Beings
I was once held,
and in that embrace i felt
i felt the unconditional truth of love
how sweet to eat
how beautiful to know
it caught me on the corner
at the street light in the middle of the night
walking and remembering how it changed me
rearranging all my passings into wisdom
breathing on my skin as the cool breeze breathes me in
as the rain drops fell to a consistent poly rhythm of the sound of my heart
to behold a rich seed in your soil
growing into tree that is loyal to the earth you walk on
to be held,
to be holding,
to be heard
to be known

Looking
can continue into the soul
a new direction. Peace behold
Please be still, i have grown tired of
those who do not understand what it bares
stillness, and quiet
the spirit moves in that place
after a piercing phrase
and during a peering gaze
You tell them how you actually feel when they ask
"How are you?"
Me. "Oh, Im working through. I feel alot
i dont need you to say, I know what you mean. Know what I mean?
Maybe just hear me out. And, no that doesnt mean you can sit here.
You know what I mean?
