Change your mind. Change your life. Change the world. / "Its hard to stay mad when there is so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I am seeing it all at once and its too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude; for every single moment of my stupid little life." - Kevin Spacey "American Beauty" / https://vimeo.com/88716480
If I can't be your rock
Let me be your stepping stone
Use me as you walk
Up the steep path toward your throne
Whether you just want to talk
Or feel your heart's come home
I can be the harbor's dock
In life's ocean where you roam

Nothing matters?
But “nothing” is a concept we can never experience since we are all something
Yet nothing has to be something
Because everything is something
So nothing has always mattered

Sometimes I think I would be freer without the pleasures of my life
For parting with a good thing hurts like the stinging blade of a traitors knife
Why can't the good things be the norm instead of the exception
If you believe that anyone is always happy you've been tricked by their deception
Because to balance is to live
With only take there is no give

What I am becoming is hard to put a finger on
Lots of what I thought was me seems at times to be completely gone
Maybe this is why some old folks get so bitter
Looking at things from their perspective sure can make me shiver
But I also know that I can still hold onto my old self
The happy me the hippie me, thats better for my health
But to be honest it can get boring and life must be a journey
I like to feel all types of ways even if its me I'm hurting

"I love your feet for how they found me"
Those aren't my words but there sure true
Because this life is quite the journey
I'd like to travel it with you
We'll find new comfort in the thunder
And let the silence speak its peace
Just happy in each other's presence
As the days turn into weeks
I'll be the one to hold you tightly
And reassure you that your whole
I know this world at time seems lonely but your heart stays warm dispite the cold

Let down your walls
Your defenses must fall
To truly feel the fire that runs through us all
Because there's no limmit to the love we could share
You dont want to admit it, like your heart is not there
Fear will keep you from falling its true
But when fear is your compass you can't truly be you

The need to be understood can be compared an unceasing itch or an executioners hood
Holding me hostage to self-deprecation
Leaving me feeling so empty and vacant
But when I stop placing value on the perception of others, I learn to accept critics as sisters and brothers
Whether you love me or hate me, I'm here till the end
Just being myself with no need to pretend
And just being me is so very fulfilling
I feel more alive, and honest and giving

I gotta learn to love me for all that I am
For all that I'm not
With all that I have
I gotta learn to trust me
For what I am doing
For who I am now and for what I am pursuing
Cuz one day I'll need to let me
Let me just fade
Into oblivion
Where my body decays

I rationalize out of fear and shame
Saying love can be a game
She doesn't light a flame inside
But she looks every bit of fine
Maybe I can trick myself
Relationships are good for health
She's nothing like me but people change
Maybe we'll become the same
But she does not think for herself
She accepts the truths of someone else
She lacks a passion, flame and creed
That I believe all people need
To lie to her would not be fair
I must break her heart because I care

Stare into your beautiful eyes
See the lenses through which you have captured endless moments
Now they look back into themselves so deeply and strain with all they have to know themselves
To know you
To know me
To know anything
To know everything
