Outside Love

on my mind every single day
my first thought to my last
all I find, other things to say
my wish is to go forward and fast
I must commit that I can't commit
the ultimate crime against the soul
to release it before it's ready
some things just take their toll
a fake smile and
an unfeeling kiss
a short while and
an unappealing bliss
outside love is nothing
when the inside is empty
just a shove into something
where never is plenty

"Hear me, my chiefs!
I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."

Dead inside
No light outside
Breadcrumbs all eaten up
Nothing left in the cup
No smiling eyes
No butterflies
No breath taken away
The darkness is day
Mourning the new morning
Each beautiful dawn silently greets me
The melodic birdsongs mock me
The pink sky cuts my eyes
As I wait for the darkness to fall
Greeted by beautiful dreams
Till the next
Mourning
The beautiful warm sun shines deeply
Through my blessed life
Capturing the energy
That blows through me
All the peoples' thoughts they share
Cover the dark spots on my heart
The blood from this pen
Drains the sickness out of me.
What do I choose to see?
Empty black space...
Shimmering stars...
