Tears Fall

Tears Fall by Damian Gadal
Tears Fall, a photo by Damian Gadal on Flickr.
Tell truths, use words of meaning
can you tell me who you are or,
just what you do or have done?
Don't just stand there in pity of yourself
throwing me catch lines for sympathy
conversations round and round
empty tears falling to the ground
circles, circles, endless circles
shut your mouth, stop that sound
and your boring games... goodbye
I'm going to see if excitement can be found

Going the distance by Damian Gadal
Going the distance, a photo by Damian Gadal on Flickr.
He did not know content
it was unlearned
he'd been taught that
he loved the animals,
they seemed at peace
removed from evil...
that of man's making
and in time the world
give him a gift
the best gift of all
the unimportance
of everything
just the pleasure
of being....
