new world

stepping
into a new world
unfamiliar
uncertain
will i make it?
can the dreams
the hopes
the ideas
in my head
ever become
reality?
is there room
a place for them
can i lose
the cynicism?
doubts
fears
and find faith
again
trust grace
that the world isn't lost
and move into
a new
world

sit awhile

we live and die
sit awhile
look for flowers
look for smiles
stop and rest
it's getting tired
hang the hours
just keep walking
through the dark
through the pain
somewhere's there
just beyond
hang on
sit awhile
nothing's there
that doesn't change
if you can wait
i can love
again

eyelit

half the time
wandering in the dark
think i'm lost
confused
i come and go
and usually come back
eventually
always wondering
how far i'll go
what's left
and how i'll be
sometimes i fear
the darkness
consumes me
please tell me
that you can still see
some light
in my eyes
i think i'll be alright
as long as the light
doesn't die

here again

here
i am
again.
somewhere
lost
again.
lost
in these
colors
feelings
thoughts.
blessings and curses
collide and swirl.
losing up
falling down
wandering
searching
wondering
which path took me here?
was i on it all along?
will two ever mesh
or is it forever
a parallel
universe
