Joshua Hillard Poems

When I sit here only to think,
I can feel only one thing come to my mind,
It’s the words that I speak when I say I love you,
It’s my heart knowing that you are one of a kind,
...

Nothing stops these visions from mobilizing,
Trust is our loyalty, but hate is our demons rising,
Which one are you? I feel it coursing within me,
I’m this or that, mad at the fact, I’m not what you want me to be,
...

I'm burning up inside,
Feelings along with my pride,
Step inside, let's begin this ride,
Check the tears that I have cried,
...

I’m only a suicide in this world waiting to happen,
I’m only a dream that’s falling; waiting to be captured,
A dream catcher if you may that has become missing,
As I pray with one hand talking to God because I’m wishing,
...

History presents itself anonymously,
The strains and chains prevail,
Unblocking itself in a mystical of legends,
Subconsciously no one can derail.
...

If only you could see,
What's buried deep inside of me,
But through my thickened blood,
This shall never be.
...

For a second I believed,
The thought of you needing me,
But it was a cry; in the darkened sky,
Those words were nothing to see,
...

I've been sealed with misdirection,
Love is blind with good intentions,
Life's a test but soon a lesson,
Where I'm going begs the question,
...

I feel it in my heart,
I feel it in my soul,
It's beginning to grow strong,
As I begin to let go,
...

I awoken,
Eyes so tear-filled.
A dream suddenly replays,
So many brain cells killed.
...
