Limited Dreams

Temptations, these temporary limitations,
An elevation of my many dissolutions,
In a mind with a life in own,
A dream so far away from reality


Words collide - Passions fly

Logics collide - science overtakes

Visions collide - Art engulfs

Love collides - hate outshines


Wicked or weird the callings of the dark,
Fallen or risen from our unknown maker,
A life to live if not but a dream,
Heaven and earth but all the same.

For Those Untamed

Love holds no pleasure for those untamed,
It’s a parasite, spreading disease and hungry to kill.
Love, Spreading filth in a beautiful world,
Truly inspired and defined by unfeigned lust.

Fear holds no grounds for those untamed,
Their fury burns any spirit that may rise.
Fear, Liberating those very hopelessly lost souls,
Disguised and living in search of love.

Faith holds no purpose for those untamed,
And luck is for those frightfully ignorant.
Faith, Too confused to know evil from good,
Wandering night and day, among the breathing dead.

To The Nights

Tonight to tomorrow, every night, sundown to sunrise;
Celebrate life...in all its form, in all its name.
There is no tomorrow if there is not a today,
And nothing is gonna stay the same as yesterday.
This Life is all you got, to call to your own; so live..
Live tonight to tomorrow, every night; sundown to sunrise.
Call the days with its names; the nights are all the same,
There is nothing more certain than tonight before another tomorrow.

Doors

All around in circles and squares,
In every laughter, in every pain,
These battered souls search for their doors,
With the unmarked key, in search of their homes.

Home is not anywhere they hang their hats,
It may not even be through the door up the stairs,
The hollow key they hold, shows no map, no signs,
Nor do their minds in this comic suspense.

So excluded from their waiting nest,
They seek pleasure in flesh and sweat,
Drowning away their emotions one by one,
In a web of illusions they call out their truth.

Tangled with riddles of love,
Lust, fear, pleasure and all they call life,
Forgetting their search, forgetting the doors,
That take them back to their homes.

Knowing not any longer one from the other,
Blinded by the lights of life,
These ghosts run in circles and square,
Forgetting to look beyond themselves.

A Shadow to Love

Feels like I have been out here forever,
Awake all day and all night,
Drifting with the voices in my head,
Knowing not if today is a dream or reality.

I value lesser this new world around me ,
Its words, Its ways, Its desires,
A crypt holding dear my insanity,
Untouched by the madness surrounding me.

Beaten down by the routine of days,
Dreams mount higher than clouds high above,
Somewhere ahead into the light,
I look for the darkness to clear my eyes.

I forget how it felt to be loved,
As I give away move than this world demands,
I fade slowly into the brightness all around,
With not a shadow near to hold my name.

In All Dreams to Come

I preach tonight, like the many before me;
Without a candle to see my face,
With only one message to be told:
‘Silence! my fellow beings,
Is in all your dreams to come'.

The nights speaks lesser tonight,
Of the lessons forgotten so very soon,
The heads turn away and the smiles grow slim,
Words of passion, Words of honor, words in all,
Heard less strong in a weakening dream.

The good times; always another reach away,
Enough no longer an option,
As whispers fill shadows with expectations,
Entertained by desires once condemned,
Unfolding into a final disappointment.

The nights to go, the dreams to stay,
Count not up, count not down,
For nobody is sane, it’s been told:
‘Silence! my fellow beings,
Is in all your dreams to come'.

Distant Thoughts

Staring into the hill tops far ahead,
She sat, reticent, on the leather seat.
While the traffic in the background buzzed on,
She shifted in hope to a more comfortable position.
As time stood still in conscience,
Her thoughts refused to wane.


In a slow relaxed motion, she reached out,
Held my hands in a gentle grasp.
“Ti voglio bene" She mumbled in her accented Italian,
Then receded back into her deep thoughts.
Even the loud music glaring from the car stereo,
Now seemed distant as those hill tops up ahead.


Her trance broke, trying to focus, she forced a smile,
Her beauty unparallel, that innocence said all.
I forced my eyes back onto the road,
The road up ahead now looked very different.
Headed for our separate destinations somewhere far away,
Silence spread around, in our minds into our thoughts.
