Fireworks blare,
But me, I don't care.
All that matters is all around.
In my families hearts they can be found.
And it's here in this home I feel my strongest,
The tragedy this year, has made it feel the longest.
Although within the blink of an eye...
It's seems to have gone,
Like the blue in the night sky.
But I know with the turn, a fresh start can begin
Twenty thirteen, a year to be in.

I try to trace the footsteps. I once did take. I try to correct all the mistakes I've stupidly made. I lay In my bed waiting for the day. For my Equal Eden once again. I can taste.
Find what keeps you in fear. Seek out the dangers it holds. But fight them off your tears. Turn them from black to gold. Facing this life is juxtaposed. Holding the pity people feel.
Sometimes we're happy. Sometimes we're sad. Maybe do good things. Some even real bad. The heart it will break. Like something you peel. Just keep your head up. You'll feel it self heal.
We both lost our way. We both did stray. We both did change. But we stayed put in our cage. We both found a way. To make hate go away. Cause we both did change. And we unlocked our cage.
Waiting. But I think time is standing still. I'm dreaming. Yet I seem to wake up unfulfilled. I fear the unknown. But can't wait till it's shown. Should I take those first steps.
Once in a while, too soon. I need to head for the moon. You always bring me back down. Broken, heart bleeding upon solid ground. I just need to get away. Gather my thoughts my own way.
He stored his pain, Bottled his anger, Hid any happiness, Denied suffering, And saved it for the right time. Explosions of emotion, Released through poems, To a welcoming audience. This is his story.
