Just a dump of older poems

Jealousy
It permeates from just beneath
With razor claws and sharp ground teeth
The thing that turns the skin green
I can't contain my jealousy

I can't stop thinking of what was done
I can't hold back this spilling flood
An overwhelming sort of thing
I can't contain my jealousy

Why can't I think of something else?
Why do these visions cast this spell?
Can't help but think of what could be
I can't contain my jealousy

It takes a hold from just below
With paranoid thoughts to sow
That thing that makes my heart scream
I can't contain my jealousy


[Title]
Lonely shores on the ends of the universe
This is my mooring in a violent sea
My reflection is cast in the depths of those eyes
I'm seeing straight into me
Definition, my biggest downfall
That heart and mind are as of mine
The weight of my burden is halved
Even through space we intertwine
Far beyond the shadowed docking
In the vastness of the sea
Melting in my shining essence
I suddenly feel what's meant to be
[shift; the clouds have parted as I watched]
The softest touch of summer; freeing
It holds me in ethereal form
Rays of color dance through my being
The fiber from a longed for lore
I surf on waves of highs unbridled
Passion intangible, yet so real
and with this breath, releasing hate
I find that I am healed

Sara
Your broken words fall from the sky
My heart stretches out to reach you
I want to help, but you back away
Half-conscious of the damage I can do
Take your broken heart with its bloody feathers
Just place it in my hands
Don't worry about the damage, girl
I'll guard it the best I can
This will probably be the only thing
You'd let me do for you
Lay your hurting head in my open arms
And sleep through time til you're running smooth
Your silken thoughts pour through your dreams
This paradox is breaking
Let it out, you'll be okay
I swear I'll steal your aching

[Abstract]
Burning desire, hearts on fire
Drums pounding rhythms
Staring at them
Hard and driven
A dance of chaos
Emotions running hot
Disorder
No borders
No limit
Spinning
With the hope of another beginning
Silence.
Not violent.
Dark.
Unmarked.
Nothing...
Then... something
A bright light fills your mind
Some sign of life; a sign of time
One drum, a single flowing beat
You can feel now, here comes the heat
Color swirl, colors feel
Life is real
Now you see
Everything
