Joshua Hillard Poems

Where am I going in this life that I lead?
Why it is that all my wants are a need?
How is it so hard for me to believe?
When will it be time for me to achieve?
...

So near,
Yet so far away,
My calling on God,
But I forgot how to pray,
...

The passion set beneath thy eyes,
Resembling what lies most within thy own heart,
Color, passion, vigorously vivacious,
Controlling what we call sky,
...

What is the difference?
Between my sun, and you,
Is it the distance you are apart,
Or is it the things that you do?
...

They say you can be the wind beneath their wings,
But what I have found is so much extraordinaire,
Beautiful like our galaxy; their planets and their rings,
Yet something so passionate, no one could compare,
...

It seems as if my past is here to stay,
I suffer every day,
But it seems there’s no other way,
...

People say the world forever,
But it never comes true,
It’s a lie in the making,
The subordinate word to hold onto you,
...

Life is a chance of pride,
It is a roller coaster you'll forever ride,
Each day is potent to go up or down,
Each year you may begin to turn around.
...

One love whose soul burns fiery hot,
Burdened by the mystical we call life,
Yet thy love feels like a warm summer day;
Drifting wind whispering through our branches,
...

Journeys are your life,
They show you where to go,
They tell you how to lead your life,
To teach you what you know,
...
