The one's in the middle's got no shame. He aimed for the award, Pirates of the Caribbean. But he won't soon forget. Can't return stolen items if broken. No sweet reward, Just wasted words. Owners of a broken heart fix tiny pieces with extra thumbs. Excuses - "I have a heart, focus hijacked by sparkle." Sip black coffee, no coming back... unless it's decaf. Good to the last drop. If I say so myself. Drops of revenge linger.

Revenge
Tell her you love me, dense fog is lightening up. I'm on some new **** at a time one breath cultivating love. Hart to Hart, your sunshine when the sun doesn't. North of the Arctic Circle, down south from a peace of mind. Every dime has two sides, every moment a choice. For Pete's sake, the devil doesn't bargain. I, too, shall rise, like the morning sun after a long night. So when she asks, tell her you love me.

Check me out. Look no hands. We meet. Bird with no song. Pretty wings that seem to hold me. My attention is gravity pulled. I'm hanging from her smile. To each his own, and I'm betting on us. Whoa, when did this happen? Did my heart just catch me napping, Or has the coyote just caught Road Runner, plain stupid, don't know which character I played? We Do Si Do and walk right past. Never more.

Faded Dance
My heart is too big, Grinch Stole Christmas or who zooming who? I'm just a pea in the *** With visions of flying with no wings. This life's overstayed – soon to be wasted. Next life, maybe I'll become the wind, wild and free. "Hugo, they call me"... I run with the Santa Ana winds. Raw, untamed, and restless – that's my heart's language. Absence of time.

Hunt
You can put me in drive, I'll be outside, waiting patiently like the desert missing the rain. Casualties of war, for the victims shaped the storm, for we hold the truth as selves evidence. I know we're not the only carrier of battle scars But, I'm drowning in wave after wave, aching for a lifeline. Your heart, if you let me, I'll stay, be still, your wish is at hand. Out of the blue, you stopped my heart, as if I'd wished for you from Terraria, Fallen star shine brightly before it touches down. A place where dreams come true. A near-accident, a broken heart, but even that can mend. YHWH, they say His name, a whisper in the silence. Faithlessly she's interested Curious kisses the cat.

Glass Half/Full Good morning, how are you? I had an interesting thing happen. A total eclipse of the heart Me and my brothers hung out, Dem boys are back in town Had a great time with them. My brother lives in Washington (state), you know Johnny Appleseed. And it brings it back to you. When can I see you again? The answer terrifies me. I want to love you, and you may not feel the same. At the end of my world, prayers fallen on deaf ears. Ps... Please forgive me. I know not what I do.

Glass Half/Full
Hand of God and David, a sculpture of pain, Michelangelo's mark, so close but yet so far. Save me, tomorrow, these words are all I say, A tale of love, loss, and longing gray. Hassel and Greta, a story of crumbs, My words are whispers, to deaf ears. Touches I miss and kisses don't lie, A luxury I've wanted, a self I've tried to heal. Please, bury me not, let me stay above, Where flowers bloom, and memories never fade. We're victims of circumstance, of hearts that have stolen, I've shaped my fate, regret after shade. Unreasonable man, I'm adrift and lost, Longing for your touch, a billy goat's toll. Dry as a sponge, parched and worn, Grains of sugar, a pinch of pain, forever born. It has been hard to live without you here, A life on pause, a heart that's drawing near. Trouble man, afraid to speak his peace, For loose lips sank ship, and my heart's still lost at sea."

Parched
"Don't steal my shine, shadow my light, Don't dampen my spark, all eyes on me, A beauty, no need to look away, I'm radiant, in my own way. Don't run, I won't chase, Life's tale unfolds at its own pace. Like Jonah, I'm thrown into the deep, Yet, I rise, my spirit has wings. I shape my fate, The sun will shine, don't hesitate. Seize the day, let your true self shine, And make your mark, make it divine."

"I'm coming like nobody else, An avalanche of choice, from root to leaf. This is showbiz, the final ride, God's eyes are on me, I'm the photographer tonight. I see what I see, a star born, King David's legacy, life's thorns adorn. Jason's arrival sends crowds fleeing wild, In this dog-eat-dog world, who's coming to save us? Pain and success, an unlikely pair, Besties in this chaotic air."
