Off until the New Year

Me, myself and I are off to outer space
also known as a quiet refuge and resting place
So until the new year you shall not see this face
for my outer space contains no technology of our modern race

Wait

Sometimes people say
that when you love someone
they complete your sentences,
but I think that love
is when they
wait.

Downstairs

When I was asked to
Walk
Down
A
Flight
Of stairs
I saw a dark tunnel
Leading to a scary place
And even when I added carpet
It turned a bloody red
And provided no comfort
Only as I fell
Deeper
Into
Sleep
Did I forget the stairs
And stop analyzing
What shouldn't
Be over-thought

A whirlwind flew by
without seconds for thought.
Passing through movements
with words spoken as listeners listened.
Exhaustion often arrives at the end of perfection.

Intruder

A chubby, stout man is standing in my living room.
He seems to be playing with sort of socks and
he is filling his already huge belly with treats
that I assume he has stolen from my family.
He turns around to see me staring at him with my mouth wide,
and he starts to make a very strange, loud noise.
I don't understand the sound that is coming from his booming voice,
he simply repeats a one-syllabled word.
I turn around and run for my life and wonder
what the heck my parents were talking about
when they told me that I should be excited for a
"special" day.

Winter Sleep

The snow covers my world like a blanket.
When the sun hits it's shell
a million diamonds are ignited for only I to see.
Suddenly I fall into a white coat.
I am lost in the depth of it's cold comfort.
Covered as I feel myself falling
Falling into sleep.
This is where I will be led.
Eyes closed, the warmth seeps through
the soft layer to touch my eyelids
and I am comforted once again.

Hidden

Why do you cover?
It is to hide from yourself?
For what lies there beneath such a large façade?
Are you frightened of what you will see?
Beauty, the only word
One of which no one can be.
Perfection is a sound that no one can hear
And flawless is an image,
too impossible to fear.
So take off the weight of which you bear
And be free of the consciousness which you're forced to wear.
