on the left of the right side

"i caught a glimpse of the trees as she ran away,

her direction opposite to me.

the ground beneath my feet sparkled like diamonds,

i almost didn't believe it.

they were in front and didn't wait for him,

he was taking in the view,

it was a moment they would never fully understand.

i miss your face,

so i close my eyes and catch your sweet scent,

your beauty invades my inner most thoughts.

i never liked the way Winter made the trees feel,

the cold wind on their broken down bodies.

voices destroy my vision and it kills my control,

now i wait for you...

to come sing my heart back to loveliness,

and i know it's soon."

the dish and the spoon

The coffee’s on, the fire is warm,

are you coming out of the storm?

I need to know what’s on your mind,

can you tell me? Please don’t hide.

The clock has moved and I’m still waiting.

Are you alright dear? You look like you’re fading.

Maybe I should speak and let me say,

I’ll be honest, it’s better that way.

I’ve got a feeling that something’s wrong,

I haven’t seen you, it’s been too long.

You need to tell me what’s in your heart,

I know it’s hard dear, so please just start.

The fire is ashes, the coffee’s cold,

I think I’m done here, and my stories told.

Thanks love for listening and being you,

please think it over, cause i will be too.

Outside looks crazy and sounds intense,

just like my heart, it makes no sense.

We’ll I’ll say goodbye now and talk to you soon,

until next time, I’m the dish and your the spoon.

sometimes it just happens and you can't stop it

”...And all of a sudden,

it came out of nowhere.

The black clouds swallowed

the bright yellow sun.. whole.

The water fell from the vast cover of sky

and soaked my soul in honesty.

Oh, how I needed this feeling of a new beginning.

Oh, how much I needed to start again.

I ran for what seemed like

endless cirlces of the second hand.

Creating moments of life, love

and every little thing that hung inbetween.

Oh, how I longed to be washed away,

never to be found in the same place…

And all of a sudden,

it came out of nowhere.”

-J.A. Jones

bus ride

"handle bars reflected,

the traffic lights all green,

the trees intertwined,

life creates another moment

for all to see."

new idea: the 7 day photo project

Hey friends.

This is a new idea that came to me this morning following a cool photo txt (thanks Katie!) and it's basically about shooting the same subject (i chose empty wine bottles) every day for 7 days and seeing the results together.

It's a creative idea that doesn't need much explaining, but just doing. Maybe you'll have a go at this 7 day photo project.

Enjoy - This is day one! :)

137pm

...i miss you when you are missing from me,

that's the feeling i feel, the feeling it should be.

-J.A. Jones

i was looking at her

i like stars, they are bright,

will you paint one on my foot tonight?

-J.A. Jones

long time, no see

I made black coffee to fill the need,

but something changed, I washed it down the sink.

I made black coffee to keep me strong,

but my doctor told me that's not good enough.

How do I move forward when the sun is not shining?

Why call yourself honest when we both know your lying?

Words on paper don't mean much these days.

Guard yourself in these unknown ways.

The mirrow looks good when I don't look in it.

Addiction seems handled when we're heavily medicated.

Stop writing and let's go have some coffee.

the truth... or is it?

Hey bloggers,

Beautiful day outside, the sun is shining, blue skies from where I am. Hope it's going well for you.

Below is a list of answers I received after asking this question, "What is the truth?". Take the time to read through and think about what the truth means to you. It probably means all this and alot more in so many different worlds. Maybe this will help you discover just what the truth is in your world.

- How you perceive something.
- What is right.
- Means to care about your friends.
- Hurts alot.
- Is out there.
- I don't know anymore.
- The cure.
- Different things to different people.
- The right thing.
- Not a lie.
- The truth
- What is right.
- Honest.
- Truth is in the heart, and it can set you free!
- Something thats happened in the past.
- What is proper.
- All that is not false.
- Easily blurred and becomes whatever you can justify to yourself.
- Belief
- "You can't handle the truth!"
- Something that will set you free.
- What is real.
- Doesn't lie.
- It's so hard to know what is truth in a world with so many shades of grey.


Take care.
