Through
March 26, 2009
Deep and thoughtful, passionate and free
Full of purpose, complete with meaning
Looking past this lifeless flat surface
The source of my downfall
Pierces through me
Soft and sweet, meeting incomplete longings
A moment worth living, in place of a life
Two suns rising, bringing peace amidst turmoil
Dark places, where no other
Gaze will suffice
Painful reminders, with healing powers
Blissful captivity, and dreaded release
Giving much liberty, these shackles that bind
Are the light that is shone
On the soul that is free

Picture Imperfect
February 16, 2009
I look at you,
I see perfection in everything.
I see you shining,
I want to capture it all.
If I fail to see you
For who you are, I am sorry.
If I have not captured
Your love of life, I have failed.
From outside the picture,
I see perfection in everything.
From inside the picture,
You break my heart into pieces.
Though picture imperfect,
I have found a composition worth dying for.
Yet my love is shattered,
For lack of a suitable frame.
