"Haiku 105" (aka Wanted)

I wanted to write
But my thought were lost in words
Weed in the garden

I wanted to grow
But my mind was washed in fear
Flooded my way home

"Boundless"

I find myself bound by a boundless abyss of thoughts and words

There is a voice in my ears... the music fills my soul
but I am empty

Where are the words going?
  where do they come from?
       why do they mock me?

Bound by words
  I do not know

My theory is that
there is endless verse     somewhere inside of me

The music distracts

How do I find this verse?
   How do I find my way through the words?

Where am I?
  Where are the words?

I just can compete with a boundless supply of verse
   Pandora's box is open

 and my ears weap
my eyes bleed

I cannot take this distraction - life

To live is to write
   to write I must pause
stop living

PAUSE


Stop and breath

Think

Thank

Trivial things cloud my boundless verse

I find myself being quant and its useless
   Bored of monotony
        Bored of monotone thought

Wake work wrecked
   Weekend warrior

Boundless words
Boundless verse
Boundless crap

I am being - what's the word - boring?
Quant? - I said that
Trivial? - I used spellcheck
Trite? - Isn't that a fish?

No.

I am a boundless soul, bound by my verse.

"When"

Stretching to the limit
Limiting the stretch
Growing is hard
  when you are broken

"The ghost in the hallway"

The ghosts in the hallway treated her to a very unhappy surprise
As she stumbled and tumbled down to the ground
Her eyes flashed up and asked them why
They tormented her with each memory
And every time she searched for the answer
They stole her ecstasy with swift and mighty blows
She would never feel the joy of being found
Forever must she be lost to the ghost in the hallway

"Blank text"

I lost myself here
within the spaces 
between the letters
no, between the words
or maybe its the phrases
something here
caught me
off-guard
I am stuck here
within the spaces
between the thoughts
the letters are my life
my life is here
in the letters
spelling it out
defining who I am
playing with who I am not
I am the words
this word is lost
I am lost

"Words"

trapped
  scared
fighting
  weak
lost
  cold
shaking
  dark
alone
  below
confused
  self
young
  crushed
frightened
  crying
down
  done

"Dizzy"

sparks of reality
  float around my head
I try to catch on
       to a
   coherent thought
                    but I blink and it is gone
                                                  lost in a sea of angry foam
an unreal storm
    plays out within the spinning vortex
                        that once was my brain
ideas turn into questions
  focus slips away
                                through my fingertips
      I close my eyes in an attempt to find myself once again
