Poem #10: "The Effects of Simple Words"

The Effects of Simple Words

Hearts
They bond and shine together
Glowing bright with love,
Like living angels, dancing
Joys
They reign on
Slowly showing, deeply growing
Happiness.
Souls
They reach and touch
The hearts of little angels, playing
Silently.

Wonder
Fills the air around me
It consumes my spirit
Pulls me in
And yet the sun
Goes down, their passions
Fading, their smiles
Transforming, their hearts
Start breaking, then I
Am reminded, that

Words
Can sting and seem to ring on
Like the cries of injured angels, slowly
Fading out of sight.

Poem #9: "To the Autistic Child"

To the Autistic Child

to the autistic child
when you look back, did you have fun?
or was your heart burning hotter
than the rays of the sun?

to the autistic child
was your world disconnected?
was there a light inside
that was not resurrected?

to the autistic child
were you sad? were you abused?
did there seem to be an end
to all the times where you were used?

to the autistic child
do you remember me?
the shades of light carved by my face?
you're not blind, but... can you see?

to the autistic child
did you make it through the dark?
did you still find light
when the battle made its mark?

to the autistic child
how small is your cocoon?
is your soul evolving?
will you break free pretty soon?

Poem #8: "thoughts of a cyclical nature"

thoughts of a cyclical nature

when night turns to morning
morning to day,
evening then night
a cyclical nature
always revolving
and thoughts,
a linear nature
always derived from something

desparation
the easiest way to get control
of your life by someone else.
sometimes to follow your dreams
seems just as dire and absurd
as your chances of finding snow in the desert
- can't do it, or can you?

questioning
reality based from thoughts
always derived from something
a cyclical nature
always revolving
yet in the darkest of nights
there's always a morning,
then day and evening
so you can achieve your dreams
a creative nature
always making new ideas
emotions and desires.
go ahead, follow them.
it will lead you to new heights.

someone says you can't?
well don't take no as an answer.
i say, yes you can.
