Welcome

My resolution for 2010 was to write a poem every day. By January 2nd I had already failed. Instead of scrapping the idea as a whole, I decided that to keep myself accountable I would post my writings to this blog every day. This place has changed a lot since then and so have I. While I'm not trying to write a poem every day anymore, I still love using this as a platform to share my thoughts, feelings and experiences with other people. So welcome to the public recording of my life. Feel free to hang out for a while. Read some old stuff, read some new stuff, or just listen to some music. Hopefully you enjoy yourself and maybe something here will speak to you in a way I couldn't have ever imagined.

Dolby Diety

I cry out in the hanging silence.
Hearing nothing but my own sobs, I grow tired.
The doubt that clouds my mind brings only fear.
But out of this fear emerges comfort, joy, peace.

The music is all around.

"Can you hear it?
Are you listening?"

The cinematic is everywhere.

"Have you seen it?
Are you watching?"

Every noise around me is an instrument in a beautiful symphony of sound.
"Why do you long for a soundtrack when the score is being composed right in front of you?"

I have missed out on this profound production all my life,
Simply because I forgot to listen, forgot to watch.
And now, revealed to me again, I cannot look away.
I hear nothing outside of this orchestra.

My own attempts to bring shape to silence shatter.
My soul begins an ovation while You are still recording.
