Darling lover To me You are A galaxy Now first and foremost don't get upset That's not me hinting you need a gym membership Or an objectified observation What I am saying is you're more beautifully complex than an average constellation You are not a cluster of stars some people chose to put together Nor a tether of thought from a single perspective Some 1 dimensional reflective image to simply sit by in my night sky Oh no no no, you see to me You're a complex galaxy And in those parameters let us playfully define Right now I'm within the confines of the gravity of your love<br> It's magnitude of power reigns up to 10 to the 14 stars or above That's hundred trillion flaming masses passively bound like glue By simply you just being you So above the gravity of such galaxies, my love there is nothing that comes more unquestionably and naturally true Your pull reigns me in Asks me to begin exploring every facet of your system Your stars that I am drawn to? Your galactic seeds of wisdom Burning into the retina of my inner eyes Your sources of shining light and life brighten up my dark mattered skies To the point where night and day could be lost amongst your cosmic fray I am blessed to feel your warmth in my life in such colossal ways Your planets you have formed? Refined bodies of the life you've led I mean a lot can be said of planet surface And that molten core you spout sometimes Or that forgotten cold core of lead Like pieces of your history you chose to keep and store I'm sure I could probe samples of what makes you so unique But it's not my primary mission dear It's not your past collisions I've come to seek I mean, aren't we all a chaotic incalculable and at best self confessed mess anyways? I don't think we're ever given enough time to ever truly know And although I have no idea what keeps that spiral of a chance you call a galaxy going Whether the source of your gravity's event horizon is or isn't showing I don't have to know, because not everything's up for exploration These lives we lead have an expiration, I mean we all have aspirations I'm not here to find your habitable goldilocks location Nor do I plan to build a death star, rule and reform your natural galactic formations I don't plan to rule your galaxy to its farthest reigns I mean I too have my own galaxy to maintain And I can't even really promise I'll stay Our universe is so big I mean it's easy to get drawn away! Like everyone else I guess my vessel is just passing through And trust me my dear I've tried merging galaxies And it could never end well for me or you I guess what I'm trying to say Is such beauty is better kept modestly observed Acknowledged and unfettered, rather than ruled Cause anyone who thinks they own anything Especially you or I Is this universe's greatest fool

Today is the day I will live, or I will die Today I traveled to await the outcome of my life Today is scarier than yesterday that's for sure Today could be my last Today I might seem a little dramatic to you Today to you might be just like yesterday Today for me though, has been looming around the corner for so long Today has finally come, and isn't going to be like any other today Today the reality of existence for me sinks in Today I will go to sleep and I hope I will wake up Today I am tired, I am alone, I am scared Today's sleep will be long either way Today I am definitely unprepared Today is something we will all one day face Today doesn't feel easier just because it happens to us all Today is, without a doubt, my Alpha, or my Omega Today will be the first chapter of new beginnings, or the final chapter of an old tale Today I feel like I haven't done enough with my life Today regret and fear runs through my mind like wildfire Today I promise myself If I make it through, today and everyday after will be treated more sacred Today I am telling myself lies just to get through today Today I contemplate death. I contemplate prayer I contemplate afterlife I contemplate heaven and I contemplate hell Today isn't a day I wish upon anyone Today wouldn't be so bad If only I knew Tomorrow would come

Today (And Maybe Tomorrow)
If there's anything I have learned of perspective and clarity Is morality and mortality is more our mind than of reality.

Not as much as you Think
An ebb and a flow Like water we grow Conscious streams making oceans of change They treacle and drip And rapidly rip Minds rushing like tides through our ways These currents some fight And drown out insight Into what this existence should be It's just a series of waves Reflecting all that is change So let go of life's anchors Be free.

Life's Anchors
This is a virtual representation inside of your mind Think about that That voice, this image, reality, space and time Our five senses  are the only things we truly know Perspective, perception and persuasion are, therefore Powers we're all bestowed Let me give you an example that will explain what I mean Do not think of an elephant See? Can't be unheard or unseen! Also When I say tree, what do you see? Do you see the same as me? And therefore can it be said that when we see blood We see the same red? Funny really How words can shape what's going on in our head Actually with that said Isn't this all going on differently in each of our minds? And don't these confines then make reality indefinable completely? I think you see a different red to me You definitely see a different tree And this all scares the he'll outta me Because then conceptual ideals like love, trust and reliability Are also prone to this harsh subjective reality So when I say I love you It can never really mean the same to us two When I say you have my trust Is the sincerity of those words enough? And when we speak of reliability Is it enough to surpass associative ambiguity? So like words read upon a page We subconsciously engage in certain powers we may not fully control We shape and mold through our will What we do and do not want to be instilled onto others and ourselves For the rest of our lives Humbling thoughts right? Stop thinking of that for second though And just breathe in nice and slow So? Well you are now manually breathing Before that you weren't really conscious of it though! Makes you really wonder how much we miss, the deeper we go Like what is actually real, and just in our head And is their a really difference as I've previously forsaid? We are getting pretty deep here now But do you think there's further to go? Glad you asked, well, you didn't ask, I insisted ......Anyhow, did you know That if you copy someone's stance Your influence towards them Can greatly enhance? We call this social mirroring. Such a funny thing Don't you think? How much we can tell from Arms crossed, sagging shoulders, or a frantic eye blink And do not under any circumstance, itch your scalp when i say HEAD LICE **** Sorry. That wasn't nice Suffice to say, I am ******* with your mind But not without a point you shouldn't fear I mean, Is this all unsettling to hear? How susceptible you and i might be to our influential peers? It should cause some alarming fright To know that someone out there might Be attempting to control others with thoughts Right? This sentence is brought to you by Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-Cola. Day and night With perhaps insight and upper hand as to how we think and act? Facebook would like to access your personal details, to purely, only, ever, gather public feedback Is the fear we face on a daily basis based on legitimate status of what is really happening? Or perhaps it's the stasis state easiest placed upon a person to instill a certain type of mega-mental social conditioning? ...... Well? What do YOU, truly think? And was that thought yours to begin?! And are you listening yet? Is what I am saying starting to show? And is their deeper you and i can go? It's okay though No need to panic. Whatever you do, do not become manic with and start to fret Do not start questioning every single iota of intent Do not grow an unjust sense of what is on the surface being said And what others really meant This will almost certainly grow unkempt paranoia you will one day truly dread Instead. And Please I beg. instead. Keep this solemn sentence within your head. You. Are. In. Control. Despite whatever comes your way You choose the toll it takes upon you Second by second, hour by hour, day by day Our minds infinitely powerful, with potential to grow Just take hold of that, tightly, and never let it go Let that one seed of wisdom, sink in, and let it nurture and grow And one day Potentially You might just see the same tree as me, mentally Or at least we can mount makeshift metaphysical bridges from these branches Reach out and say 'Hey. I finally see what you see. I get you and you get me' For fear is the sharp saw that cuts down those trees of understanding And what I am asking isn't really that demanding We don't exactly have to agree to see the same blood red But at least one day i hope it can be said That despite it's different hues, it needn't be shed? Cause one day I hope to say 'I love you' And you know exactly what that word meant Just as much as when someone trust's me It was understood as best as can be Because i want reliability to be the biggest tree in my mind And despite fear coming around to cut it down Hope is my dirt, my water and my sunshine Cause really, if we can't understand each other conceptually Where's the hope for this reality? But then, again With all this said It doesn't matter in the end and in our heads Because all of this is a virtual representation inside our minds, right? Our voice, our image, our reality, our space and time Our five senses we all share, are the only things we know But until we understand others It's all we'll ever have to show

I once owned a whole lot of crap It's clutter made me feel entrapped Now my legs much more strong As I trot along With everything I own on my back!

*** IS ALL THIS STUFF - A Downsized Limerick
Friends come and friends go easily A true joy in this life's company But left never alone With thoughts on your own You can't find that true friend called 'me'

Folly Filled Friendship - A Lonely Limerick
In the sanctuary of love Precious relics are on display Rare moments of solitude Stupefied by the grandeur Reading the precious scriptures Invoking the celestial force Long forgotten rituals Trapped between the papyrus Love is not what love seems Misinterpretation Leaving us with our interpretation Here, in the sanctuary The soul awakens Flame from the core enlightens Guiding light of love A path leads to the heart If love is not true It won’t hold strong Will be swept away sooner In the debris It’s more than the cloak Simple, yet so rigorous Love is the force That will withstand time
