Forever seeking clarity
I find my boots
Balancing these rails
I have walked
Them endlessly
Baptizing them
With my tears
My heart swells
Have bruised
My chest and
My mind is never
Completely at rest
My failures
Are like monsters
That hover
In the shadows
Waiting to find
The moment
Of weakness
They have been
Impatiently
Waiting for...
~Amber Comber
Baptize me in all that’s holy
Watch it roll away form me
Seeking light is for the worthy
And I doubt myself daily
Chorus:
Neon lights
Hold on tight
Let me drive
Through the night
Lose control
Make me while
Surrender
Leave it all behind
Hide behind your smile
Sacrifice what you believe
I know underneath
You’re just as lost as me
Chorus:
Neon lights
Hold on tight
Let me drive
Through the night
Lose control
Make me while
Surrender
Leave it all behind
Lose mask before
They create another
Society is to blame
Hold Fast
To one another
Before it all fades away
~Amber Comber (Trash Room Lyrics)
I walk through this wounded world
And carry home the things I can’t unsee
A weight that can get so heavy
I feverishly find ways to break free
Exhaustingly illuminating
My dark side of mind
Searching for a balance
That’s always hard to find
The past weaves
Into the future
So fast
That I forget
To breathe
In the present
I am learning
To fill my lungs
With enough air
To become weightless
And dive below
This wreckage...
#poetry
~Amber Comber
Look at that one leaf
Afraid to surrender
Holding on
To the only thing
It knows
Sometimes
You have to let go
Swan dive into
The possibility
That there is more
Magic
Than you can
Imagine
So much
Beauty to see
An unconditional
Amount of
Love
To give and receive
And you are worthy
Of it all
All you have to do
Is trust the fall.
~Amber Comber
