Neverland Exists Between Sleep and Awake

Neverland exists
between your deepest dreams
and impending reality.
the ineffable limbo
that lingers in the realm of the unknown.

but Tinkerbell is dead
and Peter Pan is lost.

happy thoughts

happy thoughts

happy thoughts are all we have
in this limbo of false reality.

happy thoughts will guide you
to that second star.
but the rest is up to you
between sleep and awake.

no fairy dust
no pirates
no mermaids
no wendy
no peter
no mom
no dad

just

happy

thoughts

to guide you home
to Neverland.

incompatible necessity

the lines have been drawn.
the sides have been taken.
dont let the silence fool you.
this is just the quiet before the storm.

a war is lingering on the horizon,
brewing behind clouds of things unsaid.
words slice through the sky,
like bolts of blind lightning
demolishing every fragile bridge,
that once connected their two worlds.

two beating hearts
that yearn to be together.
two fading souls
that stumble in the dark.
two sets of arms
that need each others embrace.
two unwilling people
alone in their own wake.


a two way road swept away
by the tides of unforgiving time.


one wants to be heard.
one wants to be seen.
both are blinded by their own reflection
on the surface of the stormy seas.



the lines have been drawn.
the sides have been taken.
but no one is left standing
to claim righteous victory.
