To watch you hold your breathe,
Until your final breath is through.
My very last ounce of hope,
it seems to be in use.
I'm not sure when or where or why
I feel as that time to say goodbye
May be closer than I thought
Could closer be what I have sought.
I struggle just to see the day
I struggle more to do and say
I feel as though my time may be cut shore

An adult is but a child a few years older,
We think the same, but sometimes time
Has thought us what we know.
Time doesn't make us wiser,
We enlighten ourselves
If we wish, we seek and wander,
or we can stay safely on our shelves.
So who's to say who's smarter,
Who's to really know?
Who's to say that knowledge
Is that, that really shows.

I'm like an old tree
Growing in the wind
I am shaped by it's direction
I can try to fight it but the wind
Is too strong for my branches
I can move with it.
What is more beautiful
Than a tree that moves from root to leave
What is more unique?
I was always like this tree
But I used to move stiffly
Trying to find stillness
Now I find stillness when the weather allows it
I find it in due time
And until then I dance freely with the world

Perspective;
sheds a light on truth.
One story holds many truths,
that is told through the half-truths that went before us.
We are victim to both past and future,
but what of present?
Only what we allow ourselves to be

We all come from another,
We are made up of those who came before.
Some will have the privilege of knowing,
Others will not.
Life is not fair,
It is not ours but belongs to something greater than us.
We are but a small speck on it's timeline
Of much less importance than we might think.
We are here to be here, that's it
To breathe, to live
We are here to leave our mark
And it is ours to make, that is the little control we have.

I lie awake through the night
See your face through the sunrise
And I know that you're alright
See the darkness,
See the darkness
Leave your eyes
And I'll wait 'til you're fine
I will stay by your side
And I hope that you're alright
Grey clouds will fade
And the will fade in time
Good night as the Blue Moon
It shines, shines upon you
Hold me close, hold me kind
I have come, come to find
That I know I will be fine
Find a light to help and guide me
Good night as the Blue Moon
It shines, shines upon you
I need you to stand by
I need to say Goodbye
I need you
I do
Good night as the Blue Moon
It shines, shines upon you

I've been thinking about what it is to die.
And what it is to live.
We inevitably experience both.
Life is like a gift.
You may love, you may hate.
Some unfortunately return it.
You might waste it and throw it away unused.
You may be thankful, grateful for it.
It's all about what you do with it.
We are all marked with an expiry date
One we won't know until it's too late.
So take this gift and thank the giver.
That life is as good a reason to live for.

My room is a mess
Almost as messy as my head.
And I remain alone.
Alone
That seems to be my new home,
a place where I feel so uncomfortable
but can't escape
Home is where the heart is?
My heart is but a functioning *****
Keeping me breathing,
And I don't see the need
I am a home bird with no home.

The world is in chaos
A disjunctive melody
But in there is music
Some sweet soulful harmony.
Listen, move closer
To the core, to the core.
Back to beginnings, see beyond
All uproar.
We are not better,
Superior, special.
We are equal to the world
That has held us.

I dreamt of you last night
I saw you on a train
You smiled like you understood,
You understood my pain
I woke up and you weren't there
I woke up
A dream is but a dream
And then my eyes they open
And your existence is but a spek of dusk
To the world
But not to me,
To me my world is altered
And I cannot start again
Life's definition
lost all meaning
You're heart still beats through mine
And I'll keep dreaming
I'll keep dreaming
