Unheard


Some mindless souls roaming needlessly
Minds wrapped in oblivion of the passing audiences
People like robots in passing crowds
Nobody really notices as I look around
Voices echo in the hollow streets as empty is all it keeps
Agony vs happiness encircles me
For power over prejudice dies to sleep
Melodies from footsteps staggering by
Teachers and artists like butterflies
Is anyone really watching
Do they really see
All there is in this world surrounding all that's free
Waiting on one moment waiting on a word
Broken wings of angels or wreaking havoc well that's absurd
 alot can go unheard

    Distance lies within these words...the haunting, dissonant voice of the individual, simply longing. I think we all can empathize with this now and again--for the loneliness can pry at us all.

    There is so much that's dismissed or ignored in our lives. Fortunately, there are poets like you to write about what it is that they are missing.

I HEAR IT

Open Link Night ~ Week 93  My heart is a field of daisies, all fresh and fragrant. Frolicking gracefully from the kissing winds in the meadow.My heart is my life and all those I cherish I keep locked inside. All different moments, all different souls. For every breath I take I think of you. I know you. I love you. You are my soul,my breath my very being. Walk with me into the shadows of night as the darkness sets in among us. Like a cloak of velvet embracing me as I grow colder. Grey skies of sadness indigo rain pouring down. I can't breath when you're not around, I begin to drown. I am alone now, cold within my self. My heart is bare my mind is thin. Anger echoes beneath my skin. Unanswered questions... how could he. He reached right in and snatched my energy, my heart my core. The rain is falling I am getting wet. It is time are we having fun yet. I do up the laces surrounding my heart, it's still seeping and tattered but is still very smart. Raindrops fal

Revolution (100 word song)

RAINS DOWN Inspiration rains down from many skies Sometimes blistering our skin to our surprise Scratching the itch so hard it hurts Lifting our heads until our eager minds desert Images of what we know is right Wanting financial freedom until our hearts delight Making a living, only robbing our time Scrimping and saving waiting for the bells to chime Evolution has made us weak  To a point maybe beyond repair Unless you step up and choose to speak Reach for greatness, have no bounds Open your eyes and listen to the sounds For in this life inspiration will come pouring down

(dVERSE) Crowded Minds

Chivalry in the form of silence Sought out to find the thief The valiant soul throws me into violence He who holds the key to diminishing my grief Steps forth and through me becomes obsolete Whimsical threads spread thin across your mind Archaic beliefs plummeting scrimmaging to find Like drones we seek forgiveness it basks in our crime Shake the salt shaker pour it on the wound Jump back down to earth and desert the crimson moon He who plays with fire will indeed get a burn Just wait quietly it will be karma's turn Chiming and churning skin toiled and true The wickedest of the wicked will come for you Costume your mind,comfort yourself Put all your secrets on the dusty top shelf The higher the better The better the higher I am your servant my vicious squire Battle like a Cracken in this broken world so vile Take control, release your inner beast As one in vision, in love we will feast Turn your ear from the words of popularity Reach w
