Bed-Time Story

Deterioration is seen behind your eyes,
Devastation created by your white lies

Your limbs remain numbed by this sensation I create,
In your veins, not blood, instead replaced by faith

Please trust me openly with what you are,
Your damaged mind, I wear openly as my own scar

Battered and beaten we lay still,
Threatened by our freedom, held against our own will

They turn their backs, pretend to be blind
Ignoring us, they create unheard of crimes

Lets bare it for our people, self assigned witness
We die here together, praying for forgiveness

Change

Change comes in many different ways.
But it's only when you realize that something has already changed, that you realize how many other things are in the process of changing.

We tend to think of change as a negative thing because it's so unknown to us. We reject the idea of it being good, for how can something be good when we have never experienced it before?
As individuals we are very closed minded when it comes to this.

For me change is the unknown. It's a dark abyass in the middle of space. I dont really want to travel there.
So why am I on a rocket heading straight for it?

I think it's time we all embrace change. There's no use avoiding it, or becoming so naive we miss the process.
I've awoken to it, and I'm fighting it.
But I'm accepting it, and so should you.

Kimberley Doreen.

Tarot Reading

Come, lets build a life together.
Just take my hand and lead me into your arms, we'll be okay.

When the wind comes, we will tighten our hold and turn our backs away.
When the rain pours, we will shelter each other with what we can
When the snow falls, we will callopse onto the ground and imprint ourselves onto the earth
When the fog appears, we will guide each other to safety
And when the sun shines, we will stand and face each other, finally seeing each other clearly

Lets build this life strong, so we won't be forced to watch it crumble
Lets build this life strong, so we can live it for as long as we need to.

Where is my paint brush?

If my opinions are only that, then why do you let them get to you so?
To you, they are orders screamed in your face. But if I am screaming so loudly, why can't you hear me?
Perhaps I am a blur to you,
Perhaps I am the devil, holding out my dagger

No, in reality, I'm just whispering a soft rebuttle to your obscure suggestions. I am not out to get you, I am simply here to remind you of the other side. At the moment I'm standing here alone, while you build-up your tall white fence. Well, if you want, I can paint this side black.
Just for you though, to allow the differences to show clearly.

Maybe you will hear my screaming then.
But it won't be for help. It'll be to warn you of the fire raging in your backyard.

Scattered Thoughts

Take me away from here.
Take me across vast oceans and small seas.
Take me into deserted deserts and elevated valleys
Take me down to the earth's floor and to it's endless skies
I don't need to know your name, I don't need to see your face.
Just take me on a tour of what life would be like with you.
Show me what you awake to when you open your eyes
Show me what you fall asleep to at night
Show me where you are hidden.

I give you my hand and my permission, now lead me to salvation.

Unexpected Crashes

Murky waters, clouded dreams
An empty surface, or so it seems
The sky is blue, yet there are clouds
So dissapointed, yet so proud

There are always things that stand in our way. Road blocks, that we seem to crash into.
It's not a small crash either, normally head on.
We face these things unaware of our stregnth and endurance. When asked up front if we want to continue, we say please, no. But when asked later, we throw our heads back, laugh and say "again".

I think that in a world like ours, it's best not to know what's coming for you. Just accept it. Buy a new car, get health insurance. It's all the same.
You always have the option to stand there with a drill and work your way through the wall. But seriously, who wants to do that? Just put on a crash helmet and get in your car.

Drive away. Drive fast. Get the hell out of here.
