True Compassion

Bright like the sun, the stars shine down.
Not knowing where to begin, we find common ground.
So many things. So many difficulties in me.
The throw them aside, and look at the heart. That's all you see.
The true depth of my soul has been revealed,
to the person that I find unreal.
My heart cries for you. My love shouts,
Pain. Pain. Again, the same repetitive morn.
I prick myself after each and every thorn.
Each and every other heartbreak, I fall.
I lose my strength, myself. I call.
A new. Always a new. Needing more love.
But I can't take the landing, because I was shoved.
Shoved to the harsh ground. Unable to act,
before I have the chance to react.
Forced love. So beautiful, but later, so painful.
Oh my god, I cry every night. Kill me now, save me the fright.
I want to love you lord. I want to know you.
But these distractions are keeping me from the blue.
The wide open space you give me to see the light.
I'm blind and can't see. Save me. Kill me, tonight.
I want to know love.
Friends, family, all loved. All so very dear to me.
But it seems impossible to shed even some of my love, to thee.
Take me from her. Let me know your passion.
I'm falling, save me. True compassion.

The Callout

Stop looking at me. Don't Show your face.
Just let me be, I keep my own pace.
Go and on with your perfect damn life. Try to hurt me.
Try to destroy every molecule my body contains. You use a knife.
The painful slow way. The way that makes someone go through insanity.
You put me through hell, try profanity. Insecurity.
The words that made me hit the rock of depression.
Sinking lower, and lower, with every expression.
Every little thing you do. Every little smirk you hold.
The color of your eyes. Once a warm brown, now a rush of cold.
Understand the pain of truthfulness, of unforgiving torture.
Realize what you did to me, and how much I suffered.
Lose everything. Try it. Put yourself in my shoes.
But you can't walk in this race. You lose.
All the effort in the world, but nothing to show for it.
The confusing metaphor of teen affection.
An illusion. You see it, you believe it. No connection.
Not for me. Everything about you. Every word you spoke,
kept in tune, until the next mental smoke.
The next time I pull a joint out of my pocket a try it.
The addiction of love. Relaxing, yet troublesome.
Throw it to the ground, I won't take some.
No more. The last call. I'm sorry.
Feel it. Read it. See it. Believe it.
No connection.

Let Your Love Be Strong

The time means nothing to you. How long?
Believe me when I say, let your love belong.
Belong to me. Belong to others, hold strong.
Hold on. Hold on to me. Don't let go.
Open my eyes, makes me see. Your the guide to show.
Show me the love within the physical image you hold.
Show me the hidden pages in your book. Let them unfold.
Let them reveal themselves as you decide.
Decide to reveal them to me, when the time is right.
So many mysteries your wondrous heart keeps hidden.
Hidden with the secret encryption of your love and soul. Written.
Write it to me. Show me these secrets you have to let out.
Share them with me, tell me your life, and what its all about.
Shout and I will listen. Whisper and I will listen.
Talk to me, and I will talk back. Your heart again.
I listen to your heart beat. It says we can begin.
Start going across the bridge that never ends.
Forever, I will love you.

Too Soon

Through open eyes, I see nothing but this empty person.
How can you see even a little more.
I feel like the very first one. I hit the floor.
Unable to keep my self up. Unable to stay together.
Words pass through my head like wind through a feather.
Invisible flowing past the unconscious forever.
Incurable. Chronic. Hopeless.
Few things stand the chance of helping.
Everything I once loved. Gone, killed by the sickness. Melting.
Still dissolving within the living fire I live.
Wanting to help others, but unable to give.
Nothing left in me with the willingness to.
Vision of this. So very soon. Too soon. Here.
