The Musings Of The Mind

Volume 6

By Jessica TaylorPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

Ground For Rise

Can you hear my heartbeat;

The thrumming from within;

Uniting for life and love alike

And the hope to re-begin.

I shout through the silence;

I fight my way through time;

Listening for the melody;

To quench the thirst for rhyme.

The melody plays with words

Words I never understood now run deep;

Playing upon the words I scatter

Knowing now the sanity I must keep.

On and on with rhythm divine

Oh how one dong or two can make me feel alive

Striving to be a better version of me

Standing "Ground" if only to allow myself to rise.

Sun Lights Star

It is from the world I hide

Watching from the window afar

Feeling the lonely tide

As I see that amazing star.

You know not of what I see

The heart and sol within you

The one who plays the heart in me

Keeping so steady true.

Oh, I long to feel the bliss

Knowing you are as you seem

If only i could once feel your kiss

So I can erase you from my dream.

In The Dead Of Silence

Some days I fear the silence

Or is it the fear of my emotions

Life is so confusing most days

There's just too much commotion.

I know you

The one who made me feel alive

Yes; I know you;

Your "Ground" helped me to rise.

But, even I can falter

No matter how I run from black

As of late the demon "Nebulous" fights

And all I can do is fight back.

The Moon And Her Brightest Star

Background thunder rolling;

The smell of freshly fallen rain;

Though I am soaring

I am still in pain.

I deeply breathe;

Trying not to shed the tear

I relax a little to allow her to soothe me

Finding strength within my fear.

Woe my throbbing mind;

Woe my longing for you to see;

May you receive all you long to find

Just know that I love thee.

For you are my everything near and far;

In my dark, you are light;

Always the brightest star

To light the lonely night.

Never shall I fall

No more darkness black

You were my all

And i shall never look back.

So my only one;

The one so steady true;

Though you are the sun;

I, the moon will always love you.

Be Still Now

It is the whole of music that I crave;

It is how I feel so alive;

But, my heart it will never pave;

No matter how I rise.

It is the vortex that so inspires;

Yet, I am alone in my doubt;

Yearning to quench my desires;

Never allowing them to be about.

Now, now heart of mine;

Know you not your place;

No matter his friendship divine

All you have is the smile on his face.

Be still my throbbing heart;

Cause me not this again;

From he and him you must depart

Or suffer the wrath of lonely pain.

About the Creator

Jessica Taylor

My deepest desire is to be able to help people; since I am too shy to be a professional speaker I decided that writing is my next best option. However, I do love the feel of the pen upon the page and the clicking of my keys on my keyboard.
