Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary.
Poverty is a veil that obscures the face of greatness. An appeal is a mask covering the face of tribulation.
Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing toward what will be.
Rebellion without truth is like spring in a bleak, arid desert.
Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.

If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don’t, they never were.
If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees.

All our words are but crumbs that fall down from the feast of the mind.
All that spirits desire, spirits attain.
An eye for an eye, and the whole world would be blind.
And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.

Where I Stand January 17, 2008

Here I stand,
Until the time
Was it a crime to see what cannot be touched
Hear voices speak words that can’t be undone
Was it my fault I was invincible
To the naked eye, I am invisible
I cannot be seen
Because no one wants to see me
I am different
Different from the rest of them
So they ignore me
But I don’t ignore them
No one is friendly
Why were they so blind
Because I am not them
I am only mine
I am different
But I can see
But they can’t see me
I watch them fall
Divided they fall
Together they die
But here I stand
Until the end of time
Was it a crime that I was unique
Original to the human mind
I was invisible to there standards
Invisible to their lies
But as they kneel to beg
I watch them beg
But here I stand until the end of time
Was it a crime for me to live my life
A crime for wanting to survive
No one would answer
So I will wait until the end of time
