If I Last

I’m waking in dark

to nothing but air

Fighting to see

where light is so spare

The bones in my body

need rest from this wind

my reasons are nothing

that I can defend

Yet guilt is ahold of me 

trailing my mind

ringing in eardrums

spinning in wine

For ocean is turning

a little too fast

still I’m going out

to see if I’ll last

My self portrait, finished a couple hours ago 11/10/11

Finished another piece today!

My new art project, started and completed yesterday!

A bottle of Foreign

A wait for the clock

to finally grant time

from lines drawn in black

to colorful rhymes

like waves in the sea

or wind on the hills

a beautiful thought

drawn to a chill

a tempting blue night

thought to conceal

a bottle of foreign

taking the wheel

- Alyssa Rolen

Cling

A a quickly heightening calm

covers all the sin

A lightly falling rain

slowly comes within

and all that loosely clings

to whats inside of me

All that rips the torn

and all that comes to be

soon ties off the loose

soon it frees the weak

ties me to the ground

chains me to the deep 

-Alyssa Rolen
