Your words mean more
Your words are no longer words to me
Like the sunlight unseen
On a cloudy day in May
Your words echo now
Not like light but like sound
In the trees of fall
Only your words stand
Taller than I and memories alike
Saria
The living
Who am I to say that I know
The direction in which the world spins
The speed at which the leaves sway
The songs which all the birds sing
The location at which the ball will fall
But me and me, of which I know all
Turns out I know quite nothing of at all
For I just spin, and sway, and sing
And see it all as time does fall
Around me and all the time
Alive
Am I
Days of lost
There are days I can smile back
At the universe looking at me
But alas
Today I cannot see
I am completely without
A path of sight before me
To smile
Heart Causes
A young mans heart
Bleeds for things
And causes and self
But here
At the turning of centuric tide
Do find
That a true heart beats
For people and faith
For a consistency of mind
Unmatched
Innate
And so some of us do grow to find
More
Constantly Constant
My worst enemy
Always presumed
To know me due to me
Having been my own
But now I see
Not that sight or time
Or the lack thereof
Or too much alone
Is what pulls me away
And ails me the most
No, instead most steadily
It is the engine of note
The human heart of hope
Which pulls at my mind
When my time is too much to me my own
Then all of my fears are shown
For I am powerless against an unknown
Me
Zineas in the summer
Having declared my heart to be one with yours
I can only assume
That much like the zineas in the summer
My own myocardium is in bloom
For it is miles away at present
With you
And as for yours I can say
It seems most happy this day
(With me)
Saria
Eternal, a tanka
I have no answers
Only guiding light and love
For those around me
Who, wish to know more about
The only father who lives
A running pace
As a runner I
Love a race pronounced
And declared to be
Of certain length and time
For how else could I know
And be certain of steps
Without the structural norm
Of that race in mind
But then again, to what end
Will I go and at when
Once I am suddenly there
At the occuring finishing line?
For such a runner as man
And in the me of preferred know
Perhaps I will just let go
And run out of this mind
Perhaps in distance unknown, I will be free of mine
Beyond mere care
Caring is fine
And as a first step, towards walking, needed
But mind
Once bent and pulled into a compassionate grey
Must follow the path of need and want
Just to not turn around and say
"Not today, my enemy of mine"
For who else will give of their focal time
If not you when you see
That there is a genuine must and need
Laying bare before your feet
Its time to walk in a different manner
Legacy, a tanka
Fame is only this
A blessing which the breath has
Only when its gone
No true maven is ever
Recognized before their end
UnDoubt
A mystery which
Seems completely unknown
You may think that you feel
Most strongly about
But know this
For as surley as I tell you, no
There is another world out there
Is a galaxy most near
Which you have already chosen
So
Don't even waiver for a second
At the sight of flag or starry night in sky
For we all feel the wind and sea and sunlight
And no warmth will ever compare to a memory
Of her most consistent eyes
Building Words
Turn these words into more than just thoughts
Would you mix them like clay
Build them like bricks
And grow them like trees in the forest of naught
As I send them to you
A most resoundingly such
(from me)
All I ask that you build back
Your own thoughts in mind
As mine once did arrive
From you to me
We are always building
A weak willed pen
Dont tell me what I will not own
You arrogant pages
You insufferable author
My life, this world, my decisions
These are all my own
And I own them more than you owned your own words
You are weak in optimism
And strong in the art of selling something false
Just so the others beneath you wont feel so alone
Don't tell me what I will not own
Watch me own it instead
And be quiet
A writers tanka
Wake up my still mind
Jolt this memory alive
In me and in time
So that I might share in words
And in these sentences find
Achievement
A dream achieved is no longer a dream
Separated from me
Just as a dream achieved is no longer a dream
But now what I once hoped to see
A reality
Stone Shores
White waters crash
On cold shores of tall stone
And sound
Like the whispers of doves
In the waking hours of old
For they were there
Most long before
And also so they will be so
When the world is young and new again
Renewed before the throne
10,000 years of which I know
I am no card player
These are my cards
They are out on the table
I am in love with you and love you
.
I am in awe of you and awe inspired by you
.
I am at peace with you and most pleased with you
.
I like seeing you and also being with you
.
Please let me remain with you and also pray with you . my girl
Saria
Thousands of verses
Someday you will wake
Into a morning of most comfortable known
Having heard the words
The sentences the night before
And the numbers by which
I have always called my own
And I will no longer be just you
But us
And in our togetherness
This we
The kind kindness which has been
Politely tucked behind the horizon
For quite sometime
We rise into a new day and shine like a life
In knowing each other more fully now
By this you will know
That you are most indefinitely
And I to you most happily
As one as one two hearts can be
For I am us and you are mine
Saria
How you care for me
Not like sunlight on the moon
Or oceans beyond the desert
Or birds without a single tree
Or bees middst frozen tundra hives
Instead
You care for me in ways my past never did
To the point where no such memory even lives
And I am both greatful and excited at this
The reality of being cared for by you
Saria
