Hey there old friend, So we meet again, From start, to the end, Is this life real? Or just pretend? I can't explain life, nor do I have words to explain myself, Hey there old friend, I'm glad we met again.

Mirrors
It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of ANNABEL LEE; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea: But we loved with a love that was more than love— I and my ANNABEL LEE; With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven Coveted her and me. And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful ANNABEL LEE; So that her highborn kinsmen came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea. The angels, not half so happy in heaven, Went envying her and me— Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingdom by the sea) That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Chilling and killing my ANNABEL LEE. But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we— Of many far wiser than we— And neither the angels in heaven above, Nor the demons down under the sea, Can ever dissever my soul from the soul Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE. For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE; And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE; And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, In her sepulchre there by the sea— In her tomb by the side of the sea.

Away
Grotesque bugs that seep. Along your spinal chord, it'll creep. Burrowing into your skin so deep. It will haunt you in your sleep. Don't know how much you can take. It'll bend you till you break. Swimming in your blood like a lake Slithering along like a snake. It'll bring out a tear. An ear splitting yell you'll hear. It'll be there waiting, oh so near. Can't you tell, this is FEAR.

Boo!
Love is. . .an obsession, everybody wants it, everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it and those who do achieve it will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all will never forget it. Love is. . . the most powerful emotion known, and one the most important things in life is to learn is how to give love and let it come in as love can heal any wound but equally love can leave some very painful scars that last a very long time. Love is. . .the only satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence because bad things happen to us and how we respond to them defines our character and the quality of our life and we can choose to sit in sadness, immobilized with pain from our loss or we can rise above the pain and treasure the most precious gifts that we have, life and love. Love is. . .a puzzle posed by the emotions and not likely to be solved by reason and it is hard to get into but even harder to get out of and soon we realize that there is only one happiness in life - to love and to be loved and anytime not spent on love is wasted. Love is. . .loving without fear, trusting without questioning, needing without demanding, wanting without restrictions, accepting without change, desiring without inhibitions and only time is capable of understanding how valuable love is.                                                                                 Jon York         2014

Love Is. . .
Sometimes when I wake up, It never really feels like I wake up, Numb

Mornings
Why do we cling to the questions that bear no answer? Why do we push away the one's we care for? Why do we live free, but die slaves? Why is this life, not enough? Why am I not enough?

Questions
With nothing stable to come home to, the days just drag on and on and on, slowly I find myself caring less and less, about everything and everyone.
