Inside the Heart of a Poppy

Such a beautiful place her heart
It goes for miles and miles
So much room inside
For a man to fly ever so freely
Exploring realms
That defy distance itself

In fact
It’s a universe of it’s own
Full of beauty and love
Building on and on
Stronger than even she could of ever imagined

So much familiarity in this heart
A warm welcoming
Into this soul’s resurgence
Feeling the many depths of it’s life
The many beats of it’s highs and lows
Holding it ever so tightly
Never wanting to ever let go

Such honor I have
Soaring high inside this beautiful heart
Such magical bliss
The kind that make one feel young again

Molded into a star
Because she gave me new life
Deep inside this beautiful heart
Soaring to newer heights

Shining brightly
Because she
Is the one who has given me light

Inside the heart of a poppy, Unlimited
Exploring newer more beautiful sites

A Rollercoaster ride to a heart shaped Epiphany

Walking out
Upon an empty city
So bright, So surreal
Silent with such prospering tranquility
As the wind welcomes my arrival
Breathing it’s harmony
Upon this skin so ever present in utter gratification

Yet, Tears of this present reality form within
Sadness of what I cannot grasp
Venturing onto public chaos
Seeing people smile with rejoice
Hiding these emotions
Asking myself
Why do I feel so different from them?

Walking fast
Away from humankind
Looking for salvation
Through nature’s devotion
Leveling myself
From this unbalancing act of time

Searching, Searching
Going faster and faster
Sweating waterfalls of anxiety
Till I can finally walk alone

And then all of the sudden it’s just me
Walking by the trees
Across an empty street
To an empty sidewalk
Venturing on a path
Full of peace and serenity

Walking even further
Pondering ever so strongly
Hearing music playing within
This heart beating ethereal octaves
Penetrating to it’s core
As this soul searches some more

Emotional, Crying inside myself
Crying In my own personal celebration
Rejoicing in mind, body and spirit
Celebrating that I am not really alone
As a more caring presence is always here
As I feel it’s overwhelming strength
Embrace me from abroad
Oh, Such strong love it has for me

No longer worried
Lost within myself
Not a care of any local presence
As I become oblivious
To my surroundings

Dreaming beyond the miles
As away feels closer to home

This imagination it flies higher
Than it has ever flown before

And at this very moment
These tears flow further out
Rejoicing with greater joy
In the realization of being different
Means something will make a difference
And what is that difference?
Perhaps very soon I will know

And then all of a sudden
An even bigger epiphany hits
Yet, A more mysterious one
Telling me something even greater is about to happen
Yet, Should I trust these feelings?
They have lied to me before

Oh, But I cannot shake them
So something positive shall soon occur
An event slowly forming
Clueing me to a better life ahead
Blueprints for a better tomorrow

Walking in
Upon a bevy of prospecting dreams
Fighting all self doubt
In the name of a future of improvement
As love sends me it’s solace of encouragement
From far away, Yet the closest its ever been to home

Oh, I can feel the change
Feelings like never before
Never have I been this certain
For an event that has yet to come

So that has to stand for something
What is that something?
Perhaps soon I shall know

Without hope
What is there?
Just emptiness
Just emptiness

Never again will I go down that road
As these visions fly higher than ever before

The Forest of Humanity

Send me to the forest
Of natural inhabitance
Green bevy environment
Naturally extraordinaire
Immune to the polluted thoughts
That enslave emotions

Sing nature sing
Croon the tunes that touches this heart
These Goosebumps all yours
Take me into your ethereal kingdom
Let us be as one
Basking in the beauty that shines
Inside your very kindred soul

Grasp these visions
As they peek peaks higher
Than these eyes could ever envision

And with these very tears
I shall stream a youthful persistence
Rapidly moving
This inner child
Breathing new relief
In the safety of this newfound innocence
Safe in the security
Of this environmental refuge
In the arms of a prospering glory

Pretty serenity
Rehabilitating, Medicating
In this natural high
Only to swoon down gracefully
In the presence of the trees
That sway in unified harmony

Feeling healthier than ever
Reenergized for a future of pleasure
Rebalanced by this positive energy
Basking In dreams of certainty’s endeavors

And that is my epiphany
This journey that shall soon
Be revealed as real
As this very heart shall go back to it’s roots
Growing strong and tall
Going beyond the times
That once slew before me

Nature calls
She called me
Asking why I left
In the first place
Will I stay here for good?

I promise
With everything I have
Soon we shall be as one
Trust these words
Soon we shall be as one

Just sing out loud
Just direct me to your heart
And I will take it from there
Always being here with you

Make it all possible
As I destroy all negativity
In the honor of your reality
In these dreams
That could finally become true

Who am I?
No the question should be
Who am I and who are you?
Where do we stand today?
As we venture on
Vanquishing yesterday for good

In nature’s loving rapture
May peace prosper
In our earnest abode within

When you win, I win
Everyone we influence wins

In nature’s loving rapture
May our hunger for happiness
Feed the ones who need attention the most
Guiding their intentions to humbled achievements

To all who need to hear it
I love you, We all love you
Be one within our hearts
As we travel to the true origins of mankind
The nature we lost sight of
The nature we let suffer by our own destructive ways

Wake up
And know
Dreams can be achieved with open eyes

Let us progress as humans
Keeping all hope alive

Let us climb up high
Upon the forest of humanity
So it can grow more knowledgeable
Than it has ever been grown before

Now is the future
Let us grow even more
Limits are that just limits
As we go beyond our own expectations

Peace and prosperity
The environment of new everlasting harmony

Welcome to the movement
For a new age of love
Where all is accepted
And no one is ever judged

If I can dream
If you can dream
We all can dream
Dreaming higher than
The stars that shine from up above


My forest, Your forest
Our forest united as one

The Origins of a Poppy

dedicated to Poppy


The origin of a poppy
From the perspective of a smile
Lights up uninhabited passion
Making all so worthwhile

Inspirational presence
A soul that magically flows
From heart to heart
Never once letting go

Her key form,
Is the key that unlocks this once locked door
Feeling brand new
In these dreams that fly high
In these dreams that forever soar
Going beyond forevermore

And her presence
Spirits full of everlasting impressions
Such heart filled realism
Multi dimensional in her
Existence as a whole

And her persona
Sooths the loneliest of souls
Feeling accepted and welcomed
In the haven of an aura uplifting
As these Goosebumps gracefully flow
Upon newfound dreams sacredly locked inside
This heart’s magical lore

The origin of a poppy
From the perspective of a smile
Lights up uninhabited passion
Making all so worthwhile

Words and actions
Come from such a long way
Closer than anything
As she hit’s the closest to my home
Than anyone has ever hit me before

The origin of a poppy
Is an origin I grasp beyond forevermore

Warping into a Long Winding Confusion

This is long, Long indeed!. It may be way too different for someones taste. I just get bored sometimes and just want to try something different. Well here it is.


A montage of my destruction plays
Grotesque sceneries begin to loom
Stuck inside this soul set ablaze
As pity overshadows this pride’s unforeseeable state
Quickening this impending doom
To the speed of oblivion

Burning flesh
Lava waterfalls of sweat
Unbearable anxiety
Razorblade mentality inspired by calamity
Self seething insights viciously circled
In a crowd of suffocating chaos
Perceived by dreams hung dry
Dyed by the blackness’s deceiving guise
Possession of rhymes wilted deception
Finding the cause of harm
The Even form of society’s design

And then I pray for an uneven up rise
I plead for a dyslexic stand
Creating a path with this ink laden hand
Striving to cause substance of an abnormal cadence
Fueled by the muse in awe of oddity’s even slaying feat
Trying and trying. Fighting with the miles
Till all is completely odd, Evenly dissolved

Astral projection
Flying highly beyond this planetary host
Seeing improvement. Seeing even a smile
Recollected, All should be alright
As dreams become stronger by each day
As I delve deeper in the night

A montage of my happiness plays
Right in front of this oddity’s vision
Soul set free, Full of belief
Winning against my negative self
As pity becomes slowly vanquished by pride
Even dies for the normalcy of it’s blatant tyranny
That tried to make me stand in a slaving line

Soothing sensations, This flesh captivated in relaxation
Feeling a cool gentle breeze kiss upon my skin
Peacefully satisfied, Knocked to these knees
In the new magical kingdom where I am uninhibitedly pleased

Floating above grace
Laughing with joy
Solidifying my beast with beauty
Feeling young again
In the grasp of a nightmare’s dreaming
Being one with myself
Flying for a disenchanting enchantment abnormally achieving

Prayers slowly answered
Blushingly smiling upon the skies
Flying even higher
Well above these once lowered expectations

Another scene of my life ends
Tragedy never breaks but bends
Another venture begins
Strengthening this character for better endeavors

Metaphoric body of armor protecting me from the sword of denial
As I stand on a plateau looking down at my past

Profoundly drenched with my own personal tasks
Blood, sweat and tears I so proudly wear
In the waking hours of my faith repaired

What shall be next?
Producing more confusion
Within the scenes of a blatant illusion
Raw innovation captivated for modest intentions
Rising above these personal challenges
Mentally bending intellect for lasting impressions

This is my life story, Unfinished
Always striving for improvement
Sequels of a recollected amassing
Ethereal lights, Red passions basking
In the green lit hills of visionary grace
Envisions of love self reinventing to a source of exquisite taste

This reflection called my existence
Shall never end
Every fictional/non fictional genre shall rejoice within
Breeding new ventures, Breeding new life
In the musing of this natural nature of unnatural bliss

Imperfect I am
Far from a masterpiece indeed
But flaws are the greatest achievements
For this very character to supersede
All personal expectations

For my love, For my devotion
I shall find some wings
As I learn to fly
On the astral plane for a better tomorrow

Oh, May all of these montages combine
As I help make a difference
To myself and those who care
For the love and honor
In the hopes of everlasting achievements
Growing souls of a heart filled allegiance
Where all will be one with happiness and joy
How is that for a mental picture?
Frustrated yet?
Oh, How I have fun with this simple thing called confusion
Is it real? Or was this all just an illusion?


Who said everything had to make sense anyways?
Here is my angst to the artistic crime lords of life


Do I get an A weird?

My Night Shambles on

Be Leave only to come back with Hope

Aerial, Flying higher than ever before
Never wanting to come down
Because the ground is too dismal

Such beauty all around
Embellishing it
Taking it all in

Basking in a new beginning
Embracing this once troubled mind
Soothing this heart
As the stars shine on

And then I begin the cleansing
Cleansing myself of any bad thoughts
Pondering with such strong relevance
As I vanquish any bad thoughts
That may bestow upon this very soul

Love, Pure love inside
Smiling on as the moon beams its majesty
Into the kingdom of tranquility
Where nature roams freely
In the presence of a secured reality

And then with these very visions
I shape the clouds with my own imagination
Molding them into hearts, heart and more hearts
As they all float within these dreams

Slumbering peacefully for once
Not a worry in sight
Peace and prosperity possesses me
Now it’s time I fly into the light
A new day, A new life

Awoken, It was all just an elaborate dream
Struggling to become loved by this flesh
Broken by these ever changing prophesies
In this local realization
That there is nothing for me to see

But still,
Distance is not as far as I use to envision it being
Could every cherished reality
Be closer than it could ever truly be?

Can faith heal my own reflective confusion?
Even my whole life weary existence?
Perhaps its time for me to believe

Journey to a Better Beyond

Calming the storm
With these eyes adrift
Floating below sunny salvation
Taking in the ethereal rays of love
In this journey of motivational endeavors
Intertwined with oceanic bliss
As the skies navigate me to serenity

Prospering in this serene beauty
Upon these majestic visions
Hopelessly romancing
The stars to sweep my feet
And take me to the land of enchanting grace
As the moon beams its smile
Upon my own emotional state of being
In the life I always dreamt achieving

And in this epiphany
This treasured validity of personal intuition
Won by this quest for harmony
I use my eyes as a telescope
Making a wish to a certain star
Wishing for the death of impossibility
So the creation of possibility can prosper within
Becoming one with this humbled existence

Do I live inside myself?
Yes, Indeed I do
It’s never failed me as much as the outside
Always somehow coming through

Distance is a killer
When feeling out of place
Striving to stay strong
For this muse to embrace me
Straight into a paradise
That even I could of never imagined
That even I could of never fathomed existing

Eyes adrift
Ready to swim across the pond of tranquility
To the island of bliss
Where dreams exist
And hope shares it’s beauty
In the art of nature’s cleansing

No matter how bad it gets
This is the destiny I must fight for
Always and forever to a better beyond

Battling the Creature Within

My thoughts stalks itself
Forming into a madman carrying an ax
Toying with this life
Laughing on with hideous intentions
Thinking the worst thoughts ever

And in this secluded dimension I try hiding
These festering thoughts begin to close in
Boxing in my own existence
Screaming, Shrieking with chaotic tyranny

My body shuts down
Submits to this mind’s atrocities
Stuck inside this self destructive behavior
Making me give into it’s will

And then all of the sudden. Change
This mind becomes a hero
Saving me from these self maniacal thoughts
Redefining this character’s stability
In an awakening of reenergized sentiments

And from behind, these maddening thoughts
Screams “There is no hope for you”
Swinging the ax even harder
Trying to cut these dreams to pieces

I run and run away
Yet, The craziness is not far behind
Blurting out negative words of discouragement
Testing my will
Till it makes sure my mind dies

I scream for the hero
To come take this monster away
Kill it for good
Send it to it’s own mental grave

These heroic thoughts come through
As golden lights of epiphany impale the madness
Falling down to it’s death
Laying motionless in it’s spiritual seclusion

Smiling, Laughing, Rejoicing
Tears of joy pouring down this face
The brave part of myself has prevailed
Time to rebuild this life stronger than ever

Looking towards the ground
The madman disappeared
Where could he be? I ask
Thoughts begin to tremble in fear

And upon where he once laid
A note drenched in blood appears
It says, I will be back
But then I realize
The madman is weak, He is a coward
As I start to relax in bittersweet harmony

But who knows if that will last
Surely this will shall be tested again
Gathering all of the strength I have
In a new age of self confidence
That shall deem me the winner for good

Once and for all I shall win

Legal Alien

Where am I?
Who are these people?
Everything seems so transparent
Illusions tormented
Into an abstract view

Is it me who has truly disappeared?
Me who shied away?
Anxiety getting the best of me
As I wasted yet another day

If only I had wings
To fly higher than ever before
Towards better meaning
In a life anew
With dreams clearing my view

I came back
With the idea of being refreshed
But low and behold
I came back empty
Feeling more different than ever before

Dimmer town
Your glum has gotten the best of me

Just a Legal Alien
In an environment quiet and recluse
