Rivers And Canyons

sew my heart onto my sleeve

for everyone to see

thread the needle with my eyes

someday i know i'll be

everything she'll ever want

everything she needs

a hand to hold, a heart so bold

someone to believe

lock your eyes, they meet with mine

staring deep beneath

the ties that bind, but yet divide

all the things we need

one day soon, i'll take the moon

down from in the sky

but leave the stars, forevermore

within the lonely night

will you walk with me

to the edge of the world

standing silently

lose yourself in the words

of this great divide

watching thousands of memories

flying through your mind

you'll remember everything

honesty

it seems as though this has become a failed experiment. i found myself writing the same thing over and over and just felt that i was stifling myself by trying to force something out every day when there wasn't something coming every day. i think it's all going to come down to making my writing more honest and less lost of fancy and over used images of the sea and the sky. though they do paint beautiful pictures i think i should focus more on being honest and direct when it comes to my writing. i've got a few things floating around my head and this will be the first place they go once i find a way to get them out.
