i'm a prisoner
of word's unsaid
just lonely feelings
locked away in my head
i trap myself further
everytime i stay quiet
i should start to speak
but istop and stay silent
and now i have made my own hard bed
inside a prisoner of words unsaid

i am a P.O.W.
not a prisoner of war
a prisoner of words
like a soldier
i'm a fighter

yet only a puppet
mostly i only say
what you wanna hear
could you take it if i came clear?
or would yourather see me
stoned on a drug of the M.I.A.
i guess that's what i am
scraping this cold earth
for a piece of myself
For Peace in myself

so, here are a couple more old poems i dug up and decided to post. the first is one that came out of a period of intense creativity (ah if only i had the time nowadays). the second was a creative writing assignment that i never got around to finishing, so i apologize if the end is a bit abrupt. once again, any feedback is greatly appreciated :).

stargazing

i dream in broad daylight
of an old front porch swing
where i sit cradling my guitar
singing you a song
while your paintbrush splashes sunbeams
across my upturned face

paint drips
in rainbow rivulets
down your sun-kissed skin
your eyes are filled with laughter
and i'm a symphony of smiles

your body is a constellation
and every star is mine

see you and me
we're painting poetry
one canvas
at a time
