Right now

An empty book
is not final
the endless possibilities
so appealing.
 For one moment
 this human condition
 is not defining.
 Once the ink from this definite pen touches
 those blank pages
 Regret seems to fill us
 with every word we write.
 A moment lost.
 A moment found.

 We find hope for a new start
 as we turn the page.
 If only you could see
 what we want is what we have
 and
 what we have is what we want. . . .
 The simple things in life would matter.

 Defined by history
 our future
 is destined for failure,
 if we continue this path.
 Allowing this present moment
 to fade away
 second by second.

This alternate state we seek,
to hide away from the reality
 we so greatly hate.
 Living somewhere inside our head,
 we never truly find happiness.

 Will we ever find peace?

 When everyone around us
 is governed by the rules
 dictated by society.

 We cannot see. .
 The things unknown
 are things we fear
and the things we judge.

Accept what is
 And
 what must be will be!

If you could please break my heart

Days go on
  your shadow remains
never really in sight.
On unexpected days
I'll catch a glimpse of a frozen memory
in hope it will remain uncomplicated.
Endings seem like hope for a new start
 yet the shackles of the past chain my feet.
I find refuge and hope that you will leave behind
 shattered dreams
 to replace
the broken shards he left behind.
