Traveling Tears

I'll not waste my words explaining the meaning of this one...
;)
Traveling Tears>

Water swirling down the drainage pipe
Taking the tears that I had wiped
from my eyes

Down the tube they twist and turn
To a place where they can learn
how to swim

Free from control and sanity
From the droll of my vanity
in my mind this time

Into the air they choose to go
Gravity becomes their only foe
As they fly

Vaporized into a cloud
Shading the sun from a heavy crowd
that I'm in

Free from control and sanity
From the droll of my vanity
in my mind this time

But now too heavy to hold together
In the warm and balmy weather
of the Spring

Although the drops appear fickle
I look up as they settle
into my eyes
Back into my eyes

Rely on my Senses

One of the two I had written in the past week. I wrote part of this sitting outside my dorm before PT. I fear putting this up will mark its incompleteness complete. Which would be not good.

Rely on My Senses


Twisted locks and keys fallen apart
Keep secrets from me that I'll never know
No way to retrieve thoughts from long ago

But I'll try to rely on my sentences
Call upon you to help ease my penances
Lost and found, I am
Lost and found

Streets and roads are closed for repairs
Detours over contours to our destinations
A Disconnect, New direction, my transformation

But I'll try to rely on my sentences
Call upon you to help ease my penances
Lost and found, I am
Lost and found, I am

The Dream of the Flightless Man

The Dream of the Flightless Man

Sometimes...
When I look up to the trees
I wonder..
What it'd be like to be a bird
Flying so high.
Looking down from the sky

I'd see...
The rain from far away
I'd know when to go
I'd know when to stay
I'd know...
When to let my body flow
With the wind

I'd be...
As free as me
Wings flapping fast
Soaring through the breeze
That's my dream...
That's my dream...

I imagine.
I'd be like Icarus and Daedulus
Fly as high as I could
Except there'd be no wax to stop me
I wouldn't fall into the sea
I wouldn't fall into the sea
That's my dream...
That's my dream(High C-Falsetto)
