When the knowing becomes true, I don’t
Talk to you,
When the knowing is real, we know
How we feel,
When the knowing flows free, when
We can see,
That you are me, and all of this is
Our fantasy,
That’s when you BECOME me,
REALLY!

For those who care, the end of today signals
A new tomorrow, and for those who fear,
A new day will follow,
For those that want to know, take the path
Where you can grow,
Who you are is who you were, one day,
You will come to know.

An explosion of imagination created by one, to begin
At the end, twas only fun,
To know is the end, finally over and done,
Played all the parts mother, father and son,
And knowing means going , to start it again,
Repeat, repent, rejoin and regrow,
Start searching again for what we all know.

What I have learned about life is its simplicity,
To know its origin is lost in complicity,
Its simply way that cant be told,
Too many conditioned, stay in the fold,
If you really knew you then you could be,
FREE.

The dawn isn't close enough,
yet I am jolted awake
from a dream that felt
like a time machine,
throwing me back to the past, so mean.
Who has resurrected
this silly girl I once was?
I thought I'd left her buried,
dead and forgotten in the past.
Now her restless spirit has returned,
trying to take over
this same old body, heart, and soul,
if possible, swallowing me whole.
The current me is struggling
to keeps what's been mine all along.
Still, she is so damn stubborn,
demanding that she too stay in the present.
I wouldn't be having this breakdown
if she weren't carrying you in her mind.
This is not the time
to let her stick around.
Perhaps I must exorcise her again,
before she starts giving me a lot more
than this nonsensical, 3 a.m. breakdown…

Put on your top hat, you are the star, the ring master, how long, how far,
Let the clowns come in, let the fun begin, see the balancing act, trapeze if you
please, sugarcane tastes so good as the magician weaves his spell, will the tightrope
walker fall?, who can tell, the dancers will have danced, and you will be….entranced,
as the tight rope walker ends the show, it’s time for you to go!

He said, "Emptiness is cold!"
She said, "Welcome to my world of love, for cold it is not!"
He said, "But it is so hard to get there, and I've tried everything I have! From the task I have won nothing but my growing age of old."
She said, "You only jest? You are a remaining image of the past!"
He said, (slowly, quietly, sighing) "Yesterday's life is all I've got."
She said, "You're kidding?"

So many questions i don't know..some say things that they don't know...
Don't know why i'm happy to not know, by being ignorant and saying,"don't know!"
I know not why the words "don't know". Mean what they mean..do you not know?.
However!.. "Honesty" when you say "don't know"means something big when you really don't know.
why i wrote this poem (well sort of poem)........? I don't know

Without dark there can be no light,
How can we exist, if we are always right?
For good to be known there must be bad,
For happiness there must be sad,
True reality could never be,
If all we wanted was what we
wanted to see,
To live in constant light, devoid of night,
how boring that would be.
