I'll catch blue ribbons in my teeth; I'll never cry when the shadow of 50 white horses, matches the sky.
I'll trace thunder with red ink, yet like a captive wolf, it'll never save the space, unlike friendly fire.
How is it still dark in here? When there's a fire in every mind...
Where your hands meet the blood they're spilling carpets of waves; so disconcerting and sensibly, building gapless graves.
Go ahead and take a breath.

Growth Forever

Only a mind plagued, a thought less forceful than a physical war,
Every passing man can see a child’s grip is falling.
We always asked: “How would you stand, if your legs weren't your own?”
She replied in riddles: “How could you stand to use your head alone?”
This thought stuck, like a seed planted in a river,
So slowly moving, Growth forever.
Then her mind spoke out through her eyes...
“Of all the people that I've left, each one has died of loneliness."

"I know you hate me then; I hate that man too. Like a driving hand, a driving glove, driven away from all the thoughts that you once held dear!"
"Dear diary, I can't write in you. No more. the pen I use is too harsh on your skin. I'll close it up as I know; you're as cold as I am"
"You shattered my mirror; all self esteem, yet 7 years with you wouldn't be the worst luck...
I'd cut my feet on shards if I tried to run, I'd see these cuts in my feet, twice, as I'd trip and..."

There is no peace in here and with this, there will be death I fear.
So let go and breathe steady, my love, for this fort that you built can't survive above ground.
"SO LET GO"
There's no life in this rope.
Your cold hands aren't a lifeline.
Slowly choke on words, I'll heed your advice.
Step steady over stones, bones and cancers.
There is no future here, your thoughts are peaceful, hindered and splintered for war. So let go and breathe steady, my love,
for the help of your roots are slowly twisting above ground.
