I cannot take it anymore Stars have nothing written Each step is less than motivated Only in dreams am I smitten Awake I do not see the sun Nor the bright colors of the world All is monochrome, neutral Neither hot nor cold ***** is taken liberally To relax a stiffened view Sets me in my dreamland Where worries are so few I know I can’t sleep forever To ignore the challenge of life But I must do something quickly To change the cycling strife

A New View Needed
We just gave one more freedom to the government Soon they will have it all And a handful of people will run our lives You will be told what to wear You will be told what to eat You will be told what job to go to each day You no longer control the tv You no longer control the money You no longer control your hot water You no longer control where you live You have no choices, they will be made for you… Knowledge of what is evil has been shredded And reformed as the right thing to do… All those good are now racist, biased, hateful, Terrorists of human nature… definition of love, good, Right, acceptable have been skewed by twisted minds We all fall short – it is how it has always been We all sin – it has always been this way We are drowning in our own mistakes of Who we chose as leaders, decision makers, Lawmakers- they are destroying us Let us look in the mirror and point the finger Of true fault (we let these people take over) And then get on our knees and pray For God, Almighty, Creator and Savior To shake us, make us stand up against All evil… would you rather face man in The end or God? (And yes He does exist!!!)

we've dug a hole...
Across the room Eyes meet Lips coyly smile Hearts palpitate A need for answers A need to know Who is that? They gravitate Greetings exchanged Wonderments won’t cease Grasping hands to meet Her cheeks radiate He sees her blush His name he speaks She softly reveals hers Ahh to communicate Her scent is wild His own is fierce They’re closing in Moves to contemplate This is the beginning For there is no written end Leave it to your imagination Of what becomes their fate

someone new
Every morning when I wake up The sun has yet to rise It takes me but a moment For me to realise Another day is ****** upon me No time for whim and wit Go through all the motion No choices - just commit! Each hour seems like a minute Each minute a blink of an eye It’s going way too fast Life is flashing by

Life
You cannot rule me There are no puppet strings You possess me not I am not a thing I have a mind I have a soul You can’t  tell me go;  stay Me… myself… I am in control Accept me as I am All my quirks and imperfections You cannot change me I do not come with directions

As I Am
My inner fears Are driving my tears There’s got to be a right way to go Do I choose left or turn right? (the future would be good to know…) If I go with the path of my heart Ignoring thoughts of my mind Results could be drastic Or as minor as being unkind My head analyzes each step Pondering possibilities of every move I’d make Logical reasoning ignoring emotions? How much more can I take? Should I close my eyes Spin round and round? Should I scream into the wind? Or wait for something profound? Each interchange of thought and emotion Could bring about happiness or wrath Each day new thoughts new emotion Each day a new path

Which Way?
if I am a treasure don't bury me if I am gold don't burn me my heart beats my eyes cry my body can feel the wind if I am the world Don't set me apart

what is my worth?
no more hugs, no more kisses ever present though are untrue wishes no more smiles, no more touch ever present though hostility and such no more words, no more smiles ever present though tribulations and trials no escape, no remorse ever present on this course

no more
We look upon each other Drawing in the attraction Wondering what’s beyond the skin Inadequacy is sometimes found Once we’ve pierced the heart within… What if what makes us who we are A total package if you prefer Gives away our true kind Decreasing the images’ worth Creating a change of mind… A peek inside the soul Could be all we need to see Sealing the fate of charm A face that’s average to the eye Has the heart to unravel and disarm… If you look at all the masterpieces artists have created Whether paint or pen, marble or clay, Or perhaps the dust from the ground We see many imperfections But overall beauty may astound

inner beauty
As a child we seek to fill our minds With taste and sight and touch combined Each day that passes brings change Our lives we want to rearrange Youngsters wish to increase age Elders want to turn back the page We live, we learn, we grow, we die Our life is but a blink of God’s eye
