Journey through my head....

Hiding in the ashes,
Turning from the sun,
Fall in leaps and dashes,
Please don't drop the gun,

Crawling beneath the eternal,
Finding not at all,
Thoughts whisper so maternal,
Don't answer to his call,

Delving through the fires,
Seeking flame through pain,
Your hope and dreams they spire,
Down as depths call out your name,

Tearing eyes they great you,
Seperating cliques and clans,
The more and more you do,
the more and more you can,

Facing down a stranger,
Running from a friend,
You are your own danger,
Can it ever mend?

Walk, leave it here to stay,
Run, come back another day,
Hide, will seek come? it never may,
Hope, to keep your mind at bay,

It is the answer,
But questions are hard to find,
Your head spins like a dancer,
But will they, will they mind?

The Face

When across a golden sky,
I see that face, wicked and sly,
Turning, I won't let out a simple sigh,
I see that face, and say goodbye,

Reaching through my mind, contorted,
Seeking thoughts, all disordered,
Running from the face un-mortared,
Pages of 'ifs' totally unsorted,

Like time without a clock,
Like a boat without a dock,
It is key without a lock,
My head uncovered, like foot without a sock,

Turning from the road ahead,
Seeking pasts that are long dead,
Remember things I never said,
I want it now, my life-long bed,

Ducking beneath defying odds,
Hiding there beneath the sod,
They seek me ever, rejected gods,
Let me rest, like peas in pod,

'Don't run', but the ground pulls from me if i don't,
'Don't hide', then will the battle stop? I'm sure it won't,
'Don't hurt', should that be helped? I'm sure it can't,
Don't leave me alone, with the face, he who counts,

A rubber band pulled over taut,
A hidden jewel searched for but never saught,
A monster caged and caught,
My mind its battle fought,

Run, Run, Run, It calls ever,
Fall, Fall, Fall, I wish I never,
Love, Love, Love, my heart in severs,
Seek, Seek, Seek, but find not ever,

Beneath a dark and stormy sea,
Is the secret, secret to me,
The waves are not quite what you see,
Whitecaps there, they just can't be,

What lurks beneath un-mortared face,
What holds the pieces in their place,
What tears to pieces, fine as lace,
What stings the mind, like so much mace,

Answer if you understand,
My riddled words, from fire, fanned,
Seeking now to be unbanned,
Ready to fight, but quite unmanned.
