My home is not made of spacecraft. My heart is not made of fear. My soul is not made of isolation. No, my home is a resilient capsule that no one can breach. I am there whenever I am weightless. I am there whenever I am problem-solving. I will be there whenever I return. Yes, you can enter. But first repeat after me: My...

Agitated by the plight Of the famine hit earth, As a sign of consolation, Tears shed by the clouds Come down as raindrops From the sieve of the sky Clattering on windows, Thumping on roofs… A musical concert For the living, below! Plopping in puddles, Forming brooks and creeks, Soak every land They come across, With love, unbiased! Just like the separated souls Reunite with the Supreme...

We find ourselves with you in time, Thoughts of you are roaming our minds Angels playing music at the Gate Heaven will be Home; let's call it fate. Do not be weary or troubled, my friend, With words I write but not to offend They are written down to help us, too It's become part of our plight with...

Homecoming
Your eyes were dark Like the deep night sky In every moment we knew At dumb highschool dances That smile on your face Could clear any storm my mind grew We collapsed on the floor Outside in the hall I thought for a moment and knew That whether we’re friends Or lovers, like then That I will always love you ...

study period It’s December and my roommates and I are deeply into Christmas. We’ve got a little 3ft tall Christmas tree with about fifty-thousand little multicolor LED lights on it (LEDs because we ARE saving the planet). We’re in the ‘study period’ right before finals and It’s a lowkey Saturday night. Lisa and I were pajama’d and...

Grief and love and wonder Can scarce exist in so frail a place As my fragile heart Daughter of the Most High King Your wick is trimmed, your lamp is full And I am sundered, torn apart Long together have we journeyed O’er a road, sometimes a highway At times, a rocky trail O that you would not leave me Wander boldly on ahead Thoughts that...

Premium Member Appalachian Homecoming
You were born here, Blue Ridge foothills, spirits of Cherokee in Appalachia's olden heart and veins. Scots-Irish influence of beloved bluegrass, moonshine of the drinking kind. Your parents weren't the responsible type, as you and your three sisters spent your childhoods in foster care and were once left with your mother's cruel friend for two years, you went through so much. Your single grandmother Robbie did the best she...

Premium Member Find Your Way Back Home
Follow the thread and morsels of bread you left of the trail to get back home. Beware of the cold, the snaps, the gaps and missing links, all the traps on the track back. Follow the whispers of remembrances, where you were when, where you've been before then. Recall the landings in the entrances, and the bells and chimes rung on...

When you left, I felt dark inside my heart, Now when you will come back, there will be light within my heart. My heart sputters faster on this anticipation, My love songs are echoing beyond my imagination, There is aura of romance everywhere, I have been waiting to see you forever. When you left, short distances seemed farthest, Now even the long...
