oxmoronic carrides

once i close my eyes
i can never know where i am
because i am constantly moving
and although i know the roads well
i dont know the feelings
of swerving turns
and slopes straights
but that is the beauty of this trip
that within the chaos
the conflicting voices and melodies
these familiar yet unfamiliar paths
i can finally focus
maybe we need to learn to block the
cacophony of living
to truly see ourselves
the solo
maybe we need the chaos...

sky blue skies


i never knew until now
how one person could see what i could not

i like how a chin curves
with sharp angles
a contradictory chin

or how green eyes glow
behind dark forest lashes
like emerald secrets

or when a smile can change
what you think of someone
when you look over
always wishing to stare
wishing to stare but willing yourself
to turn away
and leaving 
a flurried mind
and flashed eyes
why can't these beautiful things
be as free as 
sky blue skies?
