In a city full of dreams,
Sometimes
We ask ourselves, “what are we?”
How do we fit?
What purpose is there in this world?

In this city full of dreams
Filled with futures
Ideas running like streams
Until they run out…

Maybe, they say, our bright future
Was never meant to be a truth.
After all, we’re only scatterbrained youth.
All we have is ideas that run like streams
Ideas that run…until, they run out.
Until they give-in to zero action, and more failure

A statistic.

Yet,
The stars, the planets,
The sun.
Chose to rise upon our backs.

Send us to different corners of the world;
Different colors, different universes—
Showing us of more to see, more to be
Much more to become
Than the confines of our city.

Each, in our own universes,
To kindle our fire. Teach it to grow and
Teach it of the fruits the world hides within
But also
Teach it of the foes that will drive us insane;
The foes that hide within.
Teach it to break free of our mind’s boundaries

Teach our small fire:
Although there might be rain,
You can still reign.

In a world where no path is given to follow
The Stars showed us how to create our own—walk with light, in this darkness:
They took the time to know us, and help us trace this path.

Until all we had to do is trust the next step.

In this city full of dreams,
We made ourselves what we wanted to be
And saw beyond what we could be.
When the world couldn’t fit our minds,
We went out, into the universe, and found our bigger purpose.

We still speak to the youth,
Tell them our success is the truth
Trust your gut, follow your star
Walk this journey, take each scar
But make it lead to a dream—a bright future!

In this city full of dreams,
We were meant to stay asleep. Left behind.
But now, we’re becoming a dream to wake up to
A story to be told to others

Now, our ideas run…
Until they run out…side
And they run
Until they run…the world

When I’m Gone

As I die, I always wonder
If birds will pause their chatter
If singing will bow, in the shower
If spark is found somber.

Before my eyes close and I give in
To unknown and imagine,
I always wonder
If television will snail through dull scenes
If train will be. And its behavior not bothered.

As I lay in depth, I can’t help but ponder
If my bed will miss me when it’s time
If pillows will repeal masks, wear sackcloth’s in ash

Before I take my last breath, I question the ever
If eager, creative minds will hide and gnash
If fuss no longer must
If in memory, I will remain stronger
If factual stories will have me live forever.

“She is Something Else”

She was nothing else
Other than sunshine reflecting
Off of gold.

I didn’t want to give her nothing else
But my heart filled
Returning all of the feelings which from her, they stole

It was just something else
Elevating fear through the body
Finding my lost pieces, mystically making me whole

I hadn’t ever seen else:
A smile causing the sun to rise and compete
Enchanted human, unexplainable even by wisdoms of old

“Where’d Our Dreams Go?” (Part 4, Final part)

Who sealed our childhood?
Our hearts rarely find rest
Parents conclude we are still peacefully dreaming
But we are wide awake

Who rung our alarm ?

We lived in our dreams
Chasing after what our heart lead us to
We thrived

In younger years
The days were full of day dreams
We smiled, ran, laughed and giggled
We used to love like God desired us to

There was once beauty
There was
Greatness in simplicity

Fewer hours of sleep
Avoiding anything other than
Tiny screens
Cafeinne controls people’s sociability
There is a city that never sleeps
And within this sleep deprived nation
We have forgotten what it means
To truly dream

Why don’t we play in the rain?
Why don’t we smile at the simple things?
Why don’t we smile when we have
everything to smile about ?
What made childhood become lost
behind serious faces ?
Who did it ?
Or
was it ourselves ?

Fly on like voices
Fly away, little prisoner

With all the rights in the world,
Seize freedom!
Grab its bottom and tie it to your hind leg
Let it roll and mate with your hate
Let it date. For past, present and future’s sake,
Let it bear an egg

With you.
Have sex with it,
Proclaim your love from the pulpit

And fly on, little bird.
Let smoke drift under your wings
Like wind enforcing pride in a national flag
Write liberty across the heavens until your pen sag

Beak forward, but eyes up
Wings to the side with glory descending
Fly.

You’re an angel.

The Monsters Inside

Strife:
Emotions that escape like smoke through that jail cell you call a face.

Anger:
Electricity trapped inside the head, flashing through veins and demolishing the soul unnoticeably.

Dispute:
Fire, erupting out of the mouth like a volcano of words.

And you:
You’ve consumed all of them.

A spark of light
Smiles and well wishes in the heart’s delight

A table re-arranged
To the clings of dishes in exchange

A candle lit
Love and tablecloths together knit

Never did the grand drown in pickets of a frown
Even when thereafter, the voices shush down

Later, seconds spent in appreciation
Seconds smiling at the feeling born in the imagination
