This blog was created for others who will hopefully glean something from the words I have written.Not much to say except I ran off from an orphanage when I was 13 years old.Hopped on a freight train and joined the circus.Have been wandering ever since.I am grateful to be alive and my only desire is to leave something here for others to gain from.If I can accomplish that then I have successfully reached my intended goal.All we have left in the end is our legacy.
There is no correction For my disconnection As to what has occured My vision is blurred Too many tears to express my fears Part of my world has ended ~ I am able to cope As I cling to a hope That part of me is found As I wander the land Too weak to demand I am sick with illness at my loss ~ The tears choke me inside I feel as if part of me has died To the utter sickness of dread Inside I am truly dead Loves of my life where have you gone Do you not hear your mothers song It is for you I cry my tears Come home to quench my fears You have been gone too long ~ I will not give up hope to find It will forever be in my mind That you are always close to my heart It will be impossible for me to depart As much as it is my soul
The lady of the sea Her face haunts me so String of pearls entwined About her graceful neck She emerges from the water The glance from her eyes No words need be spoken Revival of a soul that dies Crashing waves cannot contain Thrashings unto the sand Its miniscule grains escape punishment Within the clasping hands A decade goes by She utters not a word Her movements are as the graceful bird There is still that look within her eyes They speak a million words Under a blanket of clouded skies In this twilight of brief joy In her is the distant star That grants me no wish Upon my heart I reliquish all my pain For a moments peace in sleep Upon her lap If I were her child within my dream I would not stray far When my floatation upon the sea Draweth me out beyond the sandbar She would gently bring me back To safety upon those shores With her reassuring eye upon me My drawing breath until the last Knowing my future was not past There she would be in my awakening With her hauntings to keep me intrigued She is the lady of the sea With her pearls wrapped around me Keeping me safe forevermore
It was within that nature of her eye That first beheld me so On that sandy beach she slumbered She was found wanton Sand mingled with perspiration Her pungent musk perceived Derived from elements Strangely enough it draws me Such grains of sand upon her face They speak to me quietly The mind meld occurs Only up to certain points The buoy bell is heard offshore I know my place and my boundaries Its distraction reminds me This figment of my imagination Merely a vision of the mermaid Who rested upon the shore It is no wonder she does not speak Within the scope of my vision Her iris speaks a thousand words Standing on cold slats beneath my feet They protect me from her burning coals The vibration of the heart pounds It is not my heart that ponders In rythmic response to the bell I cast her out into the ocean Returning her to the place From whence she first approached Grains of sand are washed away Returned to their origins Only the image of her eye remains As she descends to her home Deep within the oceans of time
