from hopelesness to hope? do dreams matter?
January 24, 2010
often i sit in cold silence, staring at random snowflakes fall from the sky … leaving the comforts of the clouds for the rocky roads below. stuttering often feels like that. falling from the sky in peace and harmony till you hit that road below … jarring you awake … till someone scrapes you off …

mind your waves
waves crash ashore
pebbles disturbed

no man should die a peaceless death

peace within when words wounded are words wonder
peace within, peace within, peace within

Sometimes you struggle to get your words out … your mind locked in a ceaseless battle with itself, not sure which way the words will fall or flow.
