Simple still

Optimism, clearly breaths

Auto-exclusivity.

Reach for winter's heavy sheath

Post the crunchy autumn leaves.

Endless summer, please evoke

Mornings late and evenings old.

Bring to me the past that was

All things home and nothing but.

I take refuge in the thought

We are nothing but a spot

Floating in a space so vast

Makes this populace seem drab

This, for me, is how I feel

And, personally,

Like simple lines

seem simple still

Concealed

I know that I am meant for something bigger

A minuteness magnified 

Via constant rigor

A grandiose part in a film shot at night

With long working hours leading Dawn into light

A complex system fabricated from thoughts

Constructed from ruins 

Kept in a box

Disguised as cathedrals or places of worship

Enveloped by darkness.

Concealed.

Blackened

The wonders of this place, like nothing we could ever breed

Philosophies replaced, by human minds hopped up on greed

The common truth between, all life and knowledge blooming here

Will sit in displaced awe, until you're secrets are revealed

And that's the thing you miss, a cold corrosive sabotage

And that's the ring you kiss, to prolong your pathetic song

No chords or melodies, to decorate your blackened lung

For all the words you speak, are guided by that blackened tongue

Bigger

I want a bigger life but I'm afraid it'd be a bigger lie.

Thinkers

The times I had are lost

In past events of ruins old

Used up and worst of all

They're worn from countless stories told

I live in moments gone

The ones that occupy my mind

Like spells they're cast upon

This empty circle that is time

So carefully I choose

Which vessels I will redefine

As art or country blues

I paint in hues the subtle line

Between the outer world

And what exist within the seams

Is where we're all unfurled

The stitches of the galaxy

A microscopic form

As seen from distances beyond

To fathom thoughts like these

Would take much longer than a night

But not so much it seems

For those who contemplate the day

For thinkings in their streams

Or so the thinkers like to say
