The view of your mind is so clear from,
Atop my zeppelin of hydrogen-neurons,
Gazing for all this time, I've found what drives me towards you,
Veiled innocence.
Though I swore to keep my distance,
I was intrigued by you, ensnared by you, enchanted by you,
Reborn by you and,
Triangulated by you into a mental monument.
[A titanic monument,
Shaped into a pyramid,
Concerted by thousands of square segments,
Compiled of star-based neuron-ore.]
Your mind is a magnificent hieroglyphic lighthouse,
Harbored by a barrier of watchtowers,
And though I wish to draw near,
The mote of black flame prevents an in

The early birds sing,
As the silhouettes,
Of the willows,
Take shape.
The morning dew,
Glimmers dazzlingly,
And the fog from,
The pond rises vivaciously.
My eyes ease open,
And my first thoughts form,
A beautiful day,
With nourishing potential.
I sit up,
And look to my side,
There you lay,
Dreaming away.
I look out the kitchen window,
As the coffee brews,
My first day under the same,
Roof as the one I declared my love to.
Life feels so joyous,
Enough to make me,
Want to sing with the,
Bird's choir of the morning mist.
Last night was the first time,
We made love in a bed,

Volcano of Love/Someone Named You

What lies inside,
Is a catastrophic emotion,
Of,
Monstrous size.
It's magma beneath,
My heart,
Convulsing my body,
Nearly shaking it apart.
I feel so much love,
Underneath the crust,
Unnoticeable,
Due to what's above.
Every time you look away,
I hold my heart,
And try to think,
Of what I could say.
I realized tonight,
That I want to be with you,
As far as I can imagine,
Imagination of infinite sight.
My love for you is unsurpassed,
I feel even the,
Love I receive in return,
Dwarfs in contrast.
Even when you say goodnight,
I'm still,
Stuck in the moment,

Interrupted Silences
By Josh Mayfield
As silence flourishes,
Through your eyes,
It is interrupted by expressions,
Relaying soft emotion.
Every caress of your cheek,
Fractures the ice,
That covers your,
Entitlement to be happy.
You don't deserve to be plagued,
By occurrences that laugh at you,
Like hyenas,
From a grim past.
You deserve to be able,
To see the beautiful oceans,
In your mind and,
Bask in the cerebral saltwater.
What good is beauty,
If you have no one to share it with?,
So I hold your hand,
And kiss you softly.
Understand the greatness,
I offer you,
Understand the greatness,
You already contain.

Every time I blink,
I flinch in anguish,
It only takes one second,
To remember all their treacherous faces.
Faces that left me a,
Fully developed habit,
Throughout the rubble of my heartbreak,
Chronic distrust emerges.
Old habits die hard,
And,
Bad habits,
Ceaselessly grasp to life.
I'd never met a person,
I thought could be a cure,
That is,
Until I met you.
Through my dimmest of nights,
You offer me starlight,
And through my worst of memories,
You are my future.
You grant me a smile,
The favor is mine to return,
And you strive to repair,
A mercilessly destroyed man.

Worlds fall to pieces and lives are lost
Words are heard and memory cells develop.
Starlight influences thought-
Thoughts that unlock portals to new revolution.
Poems are nothing but insignificant words-
While actions possess all the definitions.
Planets revolve and stars glisten everyday
But things change so much more than ever probable.
Constants are only the lack of absolutes-
Absolutes that are shortcuts to open eyes.
Worlds populate and lives last long
Words serve a purpose and are seldom overlooked.
Justice is separated from vengeance
And hierarchies are only a myth.

Lies spoken wreak the worst of hurt
Trust misplaced, requires the purest heart.
A pure heart cannot go unpunished
And a heart given cannot be accepted.
Lies regarding my writing have been told for so long
While your opinions of my work have been so insensitive.
Lie to me some more and let me feel out of harm's way
While you clean your knife for the strike you plan.
You really strung me along
Your most dedicated puppet I became, and your most prized possession has been lost.
Drugs are your preference along with a life of misplaced dignity

Rivers surge eternally into bodies of emotion
People roam aimlessly until they see the reflection of their child.
Asteroids come so close everyday
And dark holes endanger so many.
Couples go to dinner
And clouds speak of their journeys.
Waterfalls reserve ecstasy for the end
And the cosmos reminds us of our origin.
Loneliness lives on without limitation-
While delight drowns awfully.
Grab my hand and start to see-
See what's always been obtainable, but in no way unveiled.
Remember your feelings and your history
Just know it will all depend on you in the end.

A life saved is another chance given
A pointless life gives meanings to others
Clouds whirl and winds gust.
Meanings are lost and bodies are buried-
Requiems are composed and tears are shed.
Canyons are shaped and wonder takes over
Character is misrepresented and forfeited.
Roosters wake the most imperative
And fading stars tuck us in.
A life that tried to abort is a fading light-
Try hard for them but know when to give up.
Traveling to new lands opens sealed joy
New lands hold new possibilities.
Trenches defend so much
And verbal bullets do so much harm.

Dolphins give messages for falcons to relay

Worlds live on even while not in our minds
Love exists even while you feel hate.
Clouds cry for humanity, and grow for a greater personal good
Lightening warns of a time we will face.
People connect and birds sing
While squirrels dance and play.
The moon grows more broad every night
Every night opens our eyes to new light.
Lies become only the past, nothing more
Tears become ecstasy, nothing less.
Mistakes are theirs to live with, not mine
Although I cry, I never hate, I only continue to miss and love.

Don't blame your hurtful words on alcohol-
Drunks are compellingly honest.
Sounds waves cripple Ions
And smoke billows across smoldering forest.
You regret tomorrow
But you don't regret yesterday.
It comes from nowhere and it hits-
It hits hard and often.
You've always desired more than anything to have someone to be close to-
Someone to share love with; someone to tell you everything will be okay.
Things have fallen apart and now life isn't what it once was
Lives are lost and nature grieves.
You never wanted to live in loneliness; you told yourself you'd find someone-
It's been a long time

Eyes meet and lies are concealed
Pain isn't felt and the earth revolves.
Hugs are traded and smiles offered
Silent bodily lies.
It's only because I'm afraid-
Of all of you.
Ever since my painful endeavor with love-
I've felt nothing but setting suns and eclipsing emotions.
I'm in the shadows
Worlds circumnavigate blatantly.
It took me so long to think up the man who you have gotten to know
Years of lying leaves the heart exhausted.
It's for all the wrong reasons
But it's not supposed to hurt you.
What you never know cannot damage you, right?
But all the while, it's beaten me.

Planets of memories crash into the oceans in my mind
Moons are strained to immobilize the waves.
In my world, the moons do so much more
Planetary meteors endanger everything I've built.
Fissures grow and recur never-endingly upon the cliffs above the coasts
Months pass and still the fallen planets do not sink.
Worlds collide and jeopardize everything
I live in a world with no existing creatures.
Defense mechanisms operate at a decelerated pace-
While pain runs rampid.
Dark clouds warn the flora of the oasis
And thunder lets me know you're still there.

Quiet, lonely walks simply make pain more translucent
A bloody nose signals a broken heart.
You cry over him into your pillow for hours
Your sorrow carries on for miles.
Couples kissing in cars that drive by make it obvious
After thought, revolutionary realization sets in.
You never loved him, but you could never tell
You loved not being alone, not the boy.
As you stare at the weeping willow, it keeps coming
There is no man you want to be with.
You only desire a friend
One that will be by your side, not inside your heart.
Suddenly, you look to your side and there he is

Hoped but almost never became true
True enough, but now I'm here
Here where I don't want to leave.

Past the days of enslavement
Enslavement to him
Him who musn't reach me.

Learning more about things
Things that I never had before
Before when things weren't so.
So I wake up to live

I stand on a broken highway in a barren, desolate place. As I look back, I can see where I came from. Was it a wreck? Or was it simply a breakdown? I can't tell anymore. My mind seems to cloud and obscure the details of my past. All I know now is the present, where I stand. I look ahead and I can not see my destination. I can no longer remember where I have been, nor can I tell where I am going. I am lost.
As I stand in this spot, with my mind slowly ebbing away from me, I long for a solution. A way out of this horrible place that I have found myself, and can't seem to find my way out of. Was it fate that brought me here? Or was it simply my

Brisk was the dawn of desolate deception…
Invoking this distraught dare of attentive rejection…

Pastures welcome our path of walk…
Our shadows they stalk us, intuitively they mock

My heart spoke silence, and silence witnessed whim,
Loquaciously so inept…

Can he not see, that every time he looks at me,
every time his eyes burn into mine,
mine leak with the tears of my overwhelming love for him.
But it is killing me... for I cannot tell him my secret
because I fear what would happen next.
Would he reject me? never see me again?
my heart breaks at the very thought.
But he cannot be mine... he belongs to another.
And although I know my heart is crazy for desiring him,
it's far too late... I'm head over heels
I need to be with him, be near him.
At night I dream of those eyes of blue,
that hair of golden thread.

Alone, lost in her thoughts
Troubled visions and a broken home
Pain the only thing her life has brought
Her eyes tell a story
Of pain and despair
Her unspoken suffering revealed
But it's not like anyone cares
Tears spill over
And roll down her face
Her silent cries echo around
In her life she sees so bleak
I watch as she reaches
Again for the blade
With each cut she prays
Her memories will fade
I reach out to her
Outstretching my arm
Maybe I could save her
From her self inflicted harm
She reaches up to my hand
And my fingers touch the glass
The coldness of the mirror

I am going to start trying four-sentence verses instead of the normal Exadversum two. I hope you guys enjoy the change- and if not, i should be doing an Exadversum poem every once in a while. "Composer of Waterfalls" is my first 4-sentence per verse poem i have done, and with it comes a new age of Eclipsing Emotions and Setting Suns.
To know how the best of my poems reads, here are the ones you need to read. This will show my talent as a poet in full. They are Exadversum poems, and they are in My Gallery as the first things i submitted:
