"Catch the Falling Star"



  By Jeffrey MB Hibbard





As the hours of darkness prevailed like a

Waterfall into a vast deep pool of an

Continuous flow of an iced cold river.

There, a demon drifted off to the hidden shore

Where he laid in the Earth's damp bedding.

Awoken from the unconsciousness, wet and

Covered in mud, knees buckled as the demon

Rose to stand tall.

Walking limp in the darkness with a love on

His mind, his heart scattered with shattered

Dreams.

Not a care to his wounds but a care to his

Blinded fallen star.

Hands to his head, the world spinning out of

Control, no heart to thump against the chest.

Hope and fear rose to the bar equally as he

Screams her name out loud and echoed into the

Air.

 No love is perfect, every love has up and it's

Downs, what makes it perfect is for those who

Stay when it gets really down.

A tear from the eyes and stretched out his

Hand into the darkness to try to catch his

Fallen star...

"The World You Carry"

     Jeffrey MB Hibbard

For every boulder you carry, I want to share.

Every tear that you cry, take my hand and wipe it clean.

As your days are longer, as you slowly become stronger,

For every heartfelt tear, I want to show you my smile,

And relieve you of your fears.

As we split paths upon our trail to adulthood,

My hopes are higher than the sky

That our paths meet again to join hands again

The memories still exist as your scars remain.

Life lessons shall be learned as you live on.

Choices give a challenge to one's life.

These are the words of not an artist,

But a dreamer that makes them a reality.

Feeling so alone and cold,

The one person you forgot

Is standing right behind you, waiting to reach out

And shield you from danger and falsehood.

From one pain to another,

These are pains I want to share.

Let us not fight the cruel world alone,

But let us fight two as one.

One shattered dream to another shattered heart.

I shall protect the remains of your heart

If you will protect mines shattered pieces.

One by one, day by day, a slow realization as we

Discover that our hearts are puzzle pieces.

One by one, day by day, clip one match to another.

Our days become longer as they join one another

One day soon, one heart will be full again.

One that I will not call mine,

One you will not call yours.

At that hour it shall be called ours.
