Beauty in Dying

The laughter of the crying brook
The whispering in the roaring winds
The silent pleading of a joyous sun
The bright colors of a cloudy sky
The tender falling of a broken leaf
The crushed glory of a fading rose
The still cracking of the fragile twig
The smile of a sorrowful moon
The sweet lullaby of the rambunctious stars
The changing faces in the leaves of an evergreen
The peace of a weeping night
The warmth of the cold mornings
The coolness of a balmy day
The frenzied sweep of the winter solstice
The happy farewell of autumn�s feathery time

The oxymoron of extravagant colors bringing in the season
Reminds me there is beauty in dying

The Evolution of Me

Sometimes to deal with what you are you must first deal with your ....

Anger
The power of the emotion to submerge you
In your own self loathing and frustration
You pace the halls of your home
Letting out steam by screaming into the silence
of the walls
Resounding back with echoes of the aches you feel
Deep down in your soul
You reach in and gasp at the pain
That the betrayal cost
How dare you lie to me?!

Denial
The force of flashbacks as memories
Float through the kaleidoscope of human pictures
In your mind
You try to find the connection between what could have been
How it could have been
Impossible your mind adds photographs of time and words
How dare you not trust me

Depression
The tears flow as you struggle with what emptiness
Your life must look like
To those fools window shopping in your existence
You submerge your spirit in yourself
As you curl in fetus positions in your heart
You realize that you have been betrayed
You have been taken advantage of, you contort
Your mind around the present and relax into
The bottom of the bottle,
How dare you use me?!

Acceptance
The release of the mind rolled with the
Release of self you cut yourself with religious stain of glass
Puritan spirit you finally deal with the now
The then, the when, the hows are answered
Within minutes, you pick the shattered pieces of
What you will be,
Trusting your ether for daily sustenance
You take one day at a time
Breathing in you are finally come to terms with the you
you gave him...her...them...
How dare you leave me?!
