The Broken

Far From Me

Far From Me

If you have gone astray,
don't hide behind the mountains
for I will see you.
Don't whisper to the wind
for I shall hear you.
Don't cry with the clouds
for I will feel you.

If you decide to walk a path
different from mine,
don't leave trails
where I will find you.

The Village Idiot

The Village Idiot

It is not sound
to form an opinion based solely
on your neighbor's actions,
much more use the world
as a stage to express them.

It would be wise

to step out of your village

and explore the valley.

Seamless

Seamless

Sometimes there is a seamless transition
from being loved to being owned.
A confidence that once stood proud
is now weakened and malnourished.
Subsisting on morsels of compassion.

The Great Divide

The Great Divide

Sometimes it is a blur,
that point in time
when arguments become
explosive confrontations.
Anger starts passing judgment
and in the surge of emotional torrents --
the moment of clarity is lost.
We create the great divide,
cemented by our foolish pride.

Humble Beginnings

Resentment

Resentment

Inside the cave of resentment
whispers though indistinct --
they can muffle the sound of truth.
