I caught Your heart in

The middle of the dark like

It was looking for

Someone to come hold it tight.

Don’t worry, my arm’s are strong.

-

I caught Your eyes in

A moment of fright, as if

They had lost sight of

Someone they loved. It’s okay

To not look away from Love.

-

Very few people

Know the words I need now to

Tell You that I Love

You. Always and forever

I’ll be standing here for You.

I am Lost in wonderfully chaotic city streets.

This heart bleeds for constant wandering.

Yet, Home is where the Heart is

And Life is the predecessor to Death.

Must I live in a tangible world

           and only vaguely experience the life

        of a travelling knight

Who desires more than anything

                           to explore the globe

                       with his Lady Love

                                              at his side?

I wish to travel to worlds unknown;

                       cities

          towns

                                                farms

     oceans

                                    pubs

                     Both sacred and secret.

Secret from the eyes that surround me.

           Sacred to those persons I wish to meet and know.

Swelling up deep Within,

It is the Song of Generations

passing to Present

from Past presents.

Swimming through the maze

of Life’s blood

                         and Pleasant longings.

Let us be equal

              in body and ambition.

Long Live Sanity

Wrought Through Ale

And Tennessee Whiskey.
Nathaniel Munson Jan 2013
The sun falls beneath the horizon,

Emitting its last few rays

                         before the moon takes its turn

bringing light to a darkening world.

The light peaking through my curtains is faint and fading.

I can’t help but feel forgotten in this lonely room.

I just want to be with you;

                       I need you like a full moon,

         guiding my eyes during a gloomy night.

I hate feeling this distance,

                                  when conversation is met with resistance.

Yet,

        I’m left alone with my thoughts,

                                                            wanting more than ever

Your Love.

I just want to know I’m on your mind.

I just want to know you’re fine.

I just need to feel your desire.

I need to feel your smile beaming these hundreds of miles between us.

                      It’s no use being mad when we’re apart.

               Why is there always such resistance in our tone.

         When one tries to laugh,

                                            the other sits in silence.

It’s time this is placed beside us.

We can’t change where we are,

So why do we continue to make it so hard.

Love spans all distances, times, and generations…

                                          So then,

                                     why are we so quick to displace it?

I Love You Now

      As I Will Always.

Don’t Ever Feel Forgotten

           or that I’ve left you in the dark…

                                          you’re the only person I can think about;

                                           you’re the only Light in my Heart.

Calligraphic curvatures

***** into the undertones

Of changes we opposed;

Leaving us floundering amidst

The dreams of a falling star’s

Last kiss.

World of War

We are;

Tolerant of the evils in our mist

And willing to receive death

In return for bliss.

The Colossus comes

And casts its shadow across our world,

Yet we stand before it and watch our demise approach us,

                                like a modern ***** and Gomorrah.

Dear Friend,

        If we continue to misplace our freedoms

        Then it is a certainty that we are just digging our own graves.

Raw.

            I want that sweet

                            sweet

            Subtle urge to

Claw

                       its way out

                    from within me.

Loose.

It only takes one

                  or two

screws to

           lose my mind

                           like Doc

       getting lost in time.

Reality.

                 I need it real bad

           like Liu Kang needs a fatality.

    I am

Desperately

             in need of simplicity.

Word.

                         Like those found in Proverbs,

              I need psychological symbols of phonetical noise

        resonating through this life

        as if we were storming the gates of Troy.

Lights.

                       Camera.

                                                   Function.

Every action should have a purpose

              lest this life be worthless.

              So I pray you forget this

        and keep calm

                                       with your chive on

        in order to strive on

through the hurt and pain.

Might as well accept the insane.
