The Fray
If symmetry is formed from disaster If life is always ever after Then why Dear friend do you worry still Why, my friend have you not had your fill Of pain, of stress of the worlds dismay All set up so your mind won't rest I tell you friend you need not despair For life is greater without fear

Audacity
Excommunicated Only to be exonerated on this road less traveled All this knowledge for what? No one finds it to be important anyhow No one cares to know Where are all the conversationalists Where has the brilliance gone?

Stop for a moment and share
Follow the birds flight home Only to visit, only for a bite They haven't a care for the past. I can learn from them Two days across the mountains A night with endangered peace We didn't sleep much at all for all the right reasons You said we should stay here forever Away from the world With the Albatross Our awfully messy new neighbor's That's the old, I say We stopped running months ago She reminds me of the best part of the memory The dinner, the dance on shores you'll never see These birds know the lands They've kindly mapped it out for me We go by sail boat, by dying moon light and I remind myself, Have the reader re-examine my palm again. For I feel to soon a feeling of love I've done it to myself this time. Life is living

November Third
My heart has shattered inside my ribs I am no healer and can only endure Yet the pieces sink through into my lungs, expunging all my breath With each exhale I shed pain I don't care for anymore Trying to transpose the last thoughts of a person I can't live without Externally my shield holds against an artificial cities life I keep my distance from Yet inside my chest I cannot defend against this displacement A destination I transfix into eternal memory So many battles and this, is how I am brought down

Their's nothing like it.
A change of hands in my western deals Forcing together this fresh cut steel. A war we wage on sun burnt fronts Didactically distracting from far off hunts.

Next.
Little tells Justify large tales Oh, sister dear We couldn't go east For I was being hunted Even at that very moment In our mothers presence Sorry if you were upset. Unsure of how to explain You know she worries so much for us

You Are Who I Value Most.
Nothing feels right when one realizes it's been to long my hands misplace thought and these sheets remain empty These organs fall apart without her underground love Our late night crossing of eyes, of legs, of lips Evening's cut short by my idiocy to choose a vision over her sight I held back from those gifts for far to long unwilling to share my war with her beautiful landscape Drifting in and out of the world for far to long now I've been listening in on late night orchestra's The integral sounds accompanying the few stars I can see before my coming sunrise A weak acquaintance, unable to open the sky with its melody It barely does the job and I am left with clouded blue across my front Here, theirs no telling how high I must go to capture my favorite sight, the beauty these cities destroy with their fear of everyone elses dark How I wish they'd all stop believing what they hear for one evening Maybe then I could reach that moment in her bed again Two hands painting one masterpiece crossing lines We kept closer than I let anyone be Sharing what not even my elders know I held another's memories I held love and pain All forgotten now, I know I am more than prepared for the next act.

Before the season sends me home I have to take a moment to absorb my surrounding Mist filled and salty The air here is my rejuvenation I had forgotten the feeling of an open wind, fresh off the coast able to lift all sorrowful thought from consciousness. These waves, strong and much larger than the average As if pressing against my body, attempting to make contact with the soul Freezing to the bone, yet warmer than this air My heart breathing each repetitive movement that seems unison for miles I accept them each, knowing I am the only companion they've seen for days. I say a prayer for the waves and the beach that holds them I feel they are a gift to us all. I say a prayer for this world and the people who watch over it For they are each to be praised. Heading home, A quick thought passes through, one of the best, and I cannot help but smile to myself Sunset on a beach with a person I cared for most The vision is always way to clear As if I were their again to watch from another's perspective It is this, my only happy thought which takes me through the seconds I wish did not exist I shiver. As I am alone here. Its fine. I have never been a stranger to that cold. Finally content with this world. I am home bound for the night.
