SEARCHING
I walk and walk the many miles for you.
I give and give until I have nothing more.
I go on and on until I drop or fall,
But I’m searching deep because I search for it all.
Every day I die more inside.
Eaten alive by myself inside of my core,
Because I’m left alive with life that only I can sort through!
I just want to see the Sun rising up so full and so high.
I want to see the Sun set so huge with shadowing bits that glow.
So I’ll just believe in this strength that comes through you to me.
I search for you but why should I be the one who has to be one that believes?
Everyday I’m alone and it’s nowhere that I go,
Even when it’s my thoughts that I clearly identify!
I just want to see the Moon so round and so high beaming me into the glow of light.
I want to see the Moon peering through the lighter of my brightest day.
I keep seeing all of these cushioned visions of just you and me.
Searching for you gives me the sight of all that I am to see.
Every day I beg and beg until I hurt that you will stay.
But I’m left alone with reality in sight.
I just want so much for you and me.
I even want the same air that you breathe.
I keep holding onto this strength that I am I feel I believe.
Searching for you I’m with all that I can ever be!
Everyday I’m straightened by what my eyes can see,
But now I’m alone with what’s left alive and what didn’t flee.
So I’ll just keep searching for you while I search for what will be the all of me.
IF I COULD FLY
If I could fly, where in the world would I possibly go?
Up and away my wings would carry me,
My destination not known!
If I could fly, I’d capture all of the Sun’s rays.
Up and away!
What a sight to see with such a grand milestone!
If I could fly,
I would always look below.
Down and deep!
My eyes focused only on you.
My journey’s still unknown.
If I could fly, I’d stay on top with memories buried to keep.
Down and deep!
What an experience just to fly through!
Such a waste without you!
If I could fly, I would soar with my best perfection.
Soaring with pride!
My life achieved.
My destination excluding restrictions!
If I could fly, I’d forever remember this glide.
Soaring with pride!
What a thought to preconceive.
Such bright reflections!
If I could fly where in the world would I possibly go?
Up and away I would go only with you.
My destination remaining incognito!
If I could fly, I’d want to stay up and away!
What an incredible zone just to pass through!
Such a magnificent plateau!
If I could fly, I’d fly only for you!
A THOUGHT AWAY
Courage under fire is what we are,
Just thoughts away!
Tempting moments to just let it all go.
An empty world on a void day!
A pillar of strength with all that we know,
A thought away from a vision so far!
Strength under force is what we are,
Just thoughts away!
Incredible force with remarkable strength is what we see.
The chance to be with a chance to stay,
At a consistent level with the honor that only we can achieve.
We’re a thought away from the flames of a shooting star!
One of the very same is what we are,
Simply just thoughts away!
Mountains so high and oceans so deep with all that we deem.
So much unknown,
There’s just so much more,
It’s a given place where only we can lay!
Marks of pride are held in the eyes that stand glossed and gleamed.
We’re just a thought away from a world greater than our large.
We’re just one thought away from the world that we all disregard.
We’re just thoughts away from what it is that we really and truly are!
A SILENT PRAYER
A touch of silence gives me my moments in time so I gather them all.
My need to completely belong is where I am with my need to wonder why.
A life to live while gripping the fear and all truly too costly in expense!
I find myself much too weakened to stand but held by my refusal to fall.
Following you, following me, a silent prayer seems the only ally.
A glimmer of hope is laced in the shadows of my cringe for despair.
Desires erupt paralyzing minds and forcing the hold back of my true and genuine promise.
Shimmering lights were prepared in the pathway that was laid before me,
Is this really my true moment to stand with all that I am and care?
Confusion strikes the words that I think when I reach for the answers that I’ve obviously missed.
Holding you, holding me, the wonders of the world are bits of gentle for my eyes to see.
A day of light and a night of darkness, but a purpose that stands true and complete.
Vibrant sensations come to me, moments that carry me with no hidden fear.
Shadows of all kinds evolve around me bringing me to a place of joy and a place to cry.
Captured in an aura of newfound strength comes alive at rapid speeds through the insides of me.
Now for the battle of truth that lies deep within buried alive with a life that always seems to reappear.
Touching you, touching me, released into a silent prayer to cleanse, soothe, and purify.
A moment completed in my time lifts me higher raising my insides up to touch the unreachable stars.
I’m gripped by life and held in fear with moments to come forth with all that I am standing bare!
I have found myself surrounded by the light that will always shine.
Now, I stand buried alive in life with my soul deep seeded in the core of every beating heart.
Feeling you and feeling me, I stand complete and bare sounding to the words of a silent prayer.
FINAL FANTASY
Follow me and I will follow you only to sacrifice and pledge my soul.
Now known only as one!
Soaring in the winds with rapid inspirations exploding one by one,
It is your final fantasy to live again!
Victim of suicide revealed by fate and conquered by the depths of love,
Life of life has just begun!
The warmest touch begs respect for the quality found deep within.
It is your final fantasy to finally begin!
Encouraged by beliefs to uphold the strength of one’s destiny,
Yet, embraced with one final and endless thought!
A kiss of pleasure obscures the kiss goodbye,
Accompanied with its warmth to pleasure your need!
It is your final fantasy to bow down for these borrows and trade.
Subtle with perfection you are as pure as a white dove.
Your desire is to never ever get lost with what you’ve caught.
Insensitive delights begin to dwell from deep within,

It is your final fantasy to touch and feel everything that you never knew.
Life is our mystery, yet we uphold its true value with our righteous dignity.
Harvest your life moment by moment,
Make it your very own prey for the little ones who never knew.

It is your final fantasy to indulge with the intrigued and explore all of these parts inside of you!
Release yourself from the depths of love and find what it is that you truly seek.
Life of life has finally just begun!
Looking up and looking down but never looking all of the way around,
The loss of control is the loss that you will gain!
It is your final fantasy to whisper in the dark and to cry in plain sight.

Spirits fly and soar through life with so much energy powered with intensity’s strength.
They find the treasures you’ve always sought but have never found.
Your final fantasy is to escape your darkness and to find yourself inside of this beaming ray of light!
