can't you see
i'm trying to be nice here
can't you see
being nice is a hard thing

it really is, a hard thing
especially when the person
you're being nice to
treats you like *****
the craving of drugs,
the addiction of love
both will take you into another
dimension.
then once you loose
the high
or the lover
that is when reality sets in
and you feel numb
once again.

Our good friend gravity never lets us down
He helps us onto the sidewalks when we're walking the town

He helps us into the water when we're taking a swim
He helps us stay on the floor where we twirl and spin

He'll aid us as we're standing so we won't fall off of the floor
He'll aid us as we're jumping so we'll always fall back for more

He aids us in our brawls
So that our fists are sure to fall

He aids us in our slumber
so that we'll stay in bed together

But what if gravity left for a while,
And left us to figure out what's up and down

Strolling through the town in the sky
Not the ground

Taking a dive
and ending up in the sky

Dancing on ceilings and walls
And standing on the floor when you suddenly fall

Jumping up and not coming back to the ground
Gravity has let me down
and up you'd gone
Up to heaven
Up to home
I have another ending for this poem, but I just can not decide...

Gravity has let me down
And up you went
To whence you were sent
Up to heaven you'd gone
Up to you're home

Tightly
I embraced you
As tightly as the sky embraces the sun
But
You slipped away
And disappeared
Just as the sun slips out of the sky's embrace
And disappears beyond the horizon
But
You left me with something
A feeling
Of nothingness
Just as the sun leaves a darkness within the sky
But
Within my nothingness
Are memories
They are bright and full of warmth
Just as within the sky's nothingness
There are stars
But
Memories aren't enough
I need you
To make my world brighter
Just as the stars aren't bright enough
And the sun is needed to brighten our world
I need you
