From clay we came
Lightening woke us
The first breath we took
Was loaned by the Gods
To the hills we walked
Building as close to the heavens
As we could
Trying to reach them
From clay we came
Lightening woke us
The first breath we took
Was loaned by the Gods
To the hills we walked
Building as close to the heavens
As we could
Trying to reach them
I’m in a room of mirrors
They’re each telling me something different
About myself
The mirror I should listen to
Is the one that reflects my heart
The noise between words
Is unbearably loud
It’s common sense
That keeps me ticking
Where I bleed
I leave my seed
I’m really happy to be posting again and writing. I haven’t writen any poetry for quite a few months now. It’s an odd sensation. For me creativity and inspiration comes in waves. Just like moods, and different ways of thinking. It can be really productive but also quite scary as to how fast and how much I can change, it takes a while for me to get my footing again, but I really feel like I’m starting to control this a bit better as I get older. Is that a good thing?
Lots of things have been going on for me over the past few months. I’ve fufilled my dream of owning an adventure bike. I’m yet to use it to its full capabilities! But I’ve been on quite a few day trips and over just a month I’ve done 1546 miles (2488 kilometres). I’m very much addicted to riding this beast of a bike. I got a brand new NC750X Honda imported straight from the land of the rising sun, Japan. Which blew me over the moon, being a Japanophile.
I’ve been thinking about this blog often, what I should do with it, should I solely write in poetry or should I use it just to write and post content on my “exploits”. Recently I’ve even purchased a helmet camera to catch some footage of the places I travel to. Catching a first person perspective of myself riding a motorbike is beyond bizzare but incredible. I’d like the idea of making motorbike riding music videos or just mini documentaries of places I visit, just having chats. Unfortunately the first video I’ve put on youtube, I’ve mounted the camera way to forward so there’s a frustrating angle to deal with. I’ve fixed it now but it is very annoying, haha. I suppose you learn as you go.
Many times I’ve been thinking, how should I express myself, how can I reach to people, how can I be seen or heard. I think a lot of us think the same thing. How we want to be known. Music, photography, video, painting, drawing, poetry, singing. All these things we do to be seen or heard. To be pondered on, on our unique point of view as a human being, our intellect and our minds.
I think I will just use this blog to post what I feel strongly about and write poetry as I always love to.
Anyhow, it’s nice to write, and it’s nice to be back.
Hope you’re all doing well!

Heaven is in the mind of every person
Hell roars from its depths
It’s up to you
Whether your thoughts drag you to the fires
Or lifts you to the choirs
I lose a little bit of my soul
Everytime I listen to it
Everytime it makes me feel something
The past tears away a part of me
Claims it forever
And I can never touch it again
The blank emotions watch
Trying to remember what it was like to feel
Because honest to God I don’t remember
It starts to worry me
So I try not to listen to the music I used to
To keep the fading feelings safe, locked up
I think I never truly felt anything
That I forced it
To match the music of this world
The rhythm
