Our Hills Where Hell, They Lead To Heaven

I,
want to hold your earth in my soil
Your mind, in my cosmic
A peace of your aura in my tea,
as i sit and sip
I think of ways to love you inside out
and though we have not been,

I wait to be one with you 
To, harmonize with your hidden parts
and secret pieces
 
To breath in your painful thoughts 
as we burst from tear to laughter

A green eyed reminder
though we are not aligned

You remind me of, time 
A time, that has passed but is,  and has yet to come 
The ripped roots have found a way back into the ground
 
The seedling has begun to moisten 
Ive seen a sitting man
listening to the truth.
 
a sweet, bitter sweet , bitter treat 
A lull sang 
from a nest, across the street

As pain filled as it is
it changes him and grows deep within
Accepting lines that fade and blend 

Turmoil, becomes the mans best friend
He rarely grins
Nor, is his cheek caressed 
He is flogged and left
loving what has left
loving what no longer has breath 

Hoping in the miracle of what is,
next.

God, introduce me to myself
the man who is in love with 
the hope of ascending from hell

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

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?
