This page is intended as a voluntary writing page, as in poetry, rhyme, short stories, and random discussion. Please contribute, and if you intend to be critical, this is not your page. I (nor any other contributors, hopefully) do not claim to be an artist of any sort, I just recognize the benefit of free flowing thought. So, enjoy! -- MattThomas ---- Along for the ride too late to sleep now rough night, avoid a fight found a friend in which to confide. Outstretched arms tainted materialistic love can't believe the soft sweet everything and everything Opened eyes inward glance past faults colliding with present lies culminates in future regret self compromise. Too late - far too late, to sleep now awake all night awake in deep sleep dreams disintegrate with broken ideals hard to determine hard to agree hard to consider hard to keep consistent my idea, what is right -- MattThomas Overflow of powerful emotion, recollected in tranquility. ~ baraka ~ the world, without filters ~ no words... awake in deep sleep; finding balance ~ strength, love ~~ easy to determine...easy to keep ...hard to find ? .... the important is inivisible to the eye...
