"fear is the mind-killer"

look out onto this pathway trodden
I’ve passed this way countless time before
I consider myself
myself not well traveled I consider myself
arrange yourself in a certain way
arms over head
reach for this that I hold for you
create emotions
searching for you
I looked out
this path I’ve traveled
I’ve placed my foot so often here
gather my friends
not too near
bless this piece
this land
dear
lover finds you
I can’t imagine a place I won’t find you
I can’t imagine a place inside
do not try
take this worried sullen face
keep it close
don’t live in fear
look out onto this pathway trodden
so many times before
consider yourself
well traveled
steps remembered well
I can’t imagine this place without you
my curse forgets you
my curse forgets true
this frequented valley of laughter clear
I wish this end for me
I place my own
figured factors unravel
I can’t arrange this perfectly
bless this
find you.

not so assured
self-centered
careless feelings
some work so hard
I among them
wrong
treaded path
forget what I tell you
bring what
to each game
catch words
said in what
attempted privacy
keep out
away from me
consider this I say
look to me
with confidence I tell you
this is not for us
this is not for them
do not lie
hold back
a smile
kill it inside
please with each finger bent
each digit placed
perfectly
align my fingers
in so many ways
so little
say this place
broken tossed shaken
please don’t let me turn
turn into me.
