Poetic Thoughts 12.31.2011 (New Years Edition!)
So I was sitting in my car today and I got the urge to do some writing. Just a little poetry to end the year I guess. I’m not really sure what to think of this poem, tho when it comes to a lot of the poetry I do, I don’t really think of it as anything amazing. The artist in me I guess lol. But happy new year everyone!

Poetic Thoughts 12.30.2011
All these thoughts on my mind have been fueling a lot of poetry in me, so here’s another one I kinda just threw together while I was sitting in my car. Not my happiest buuuut well…nothing I can do bout that.

Faith Unto a Candle
So here’s a little poem I kinda three together this morning after attending the Mesa de Gaio or the 5am mass. It was a candle lit mass, and I guess in my sleepy state, I kinda thought this up really fast. Hope you enjoy!
Faith unto a Candle
Within the tangible darkness
The mist of black
Which hung in the church

My candle flickered
It’s flame

Midnight thoughts once again
Been awhile since I wrote. Thought it was about time. It’s funny how it feels to get back together with people you used to spend a lot of time with. In my mind, a meeting like that could go one of two ways: one being a completely awkward meeting where no one really has much to say, and the only conversation that could be had is about the past with long pauses of silence in between.
