ImagiNation The wind blows like I think
Tired of talking we started walking uphill flocking toward something mocking our way of making something grander than the grandeur they've been living We can't hear it; that's enough words from them bring the pigs their trough Fill 'em till they're dead that's fair 'nough;

From Nothing, to Something
Tonight we’ll dine alone Separate places nowhere to call home Tonight we’ll dine alone, together. Call it a sign but these faces, They’ve got nothing to them No intention, no such hunch, not like us Just something to look at As our paces line the sidewalk to that fine wine place, Drinks so costly we must be tying our laces And drifting on out our laughter as payment A moment has passed now we’re out to lunch While I stuffed my luncheon in my face You’ve beaten me to the punch, and this time I’m anxious, And my heart is fluttering, So I mutter with haste No rhyme or reason, No chime to signal some fine line, No time to to be wasted, No, I reckon, Just a second well spent Just a second we’ll spend, Again and again. I love you more.

Thoughts Before I Can’t Think
I hope you know I wasn’t searching for compliance I wanted reliance An alliance Between us We’d defend ourselves From our heartbreak And mend ourselves Till our hearts didn’t ache But there was a betrayal You held a coup I was a one man strong army Against your motley crew It left me done for through and through All I had was a single after thought As I bled out staring at the sparkling stars **** I really wish that I hadn’t loved you.

Besieged
Boo! I’m a ghost. You see right though me But maybe, If I yell loud enough You might hear me Boo! I’m a ghost. I may be dead to you But you’re wrong I am alive too. Boo! I’m a ghost. Don’t worry I won’t haunt you. Though, Hopefully I’m not a bother; If I stay a night longer. Boo! Oh wait! I’m not a ghost.

Ghost
Love is not an emotion It is every emotion; It is the course they take And the actions they make Love is a reaction A realization; That you want You have And will keep Love is all    about you At times you doubt you have it sit down then look around; It’s all about you Trust me it’s love

Love
I better go to the store I bought too much What should I do? A single thought tells me what to do I'll give some to you. If you hate it give it back But if you love it I'll lend you the whole pack until nothing is left It would seem the store has run out and I am at my limit maybe this time I could have some of you

What to Do
Sit and take it You're a loser no need to fake it Deep down in a pit Wallowing in you're poor thoughts Such a pity You ought to just stop your climb No one will be listening No one will  be believing; you'll see then when all the tricks are out of your sleeve and you fall to the ground It's as impossible as you are incapable give up without a sound The signals have been sent its time to surrender You've considered all the angles You've bent every bone outta place Don't be a pretender Just give up. Sit and take it. You're a loser no need to fake it. Deep down in that pit; It's peculiar It would seem the loser that had seemed so far is now higher than ever before

Peering Down
Trying to think only of myself But you’re a part of me; apart from me

Selfish Me
I understand your emotions I use them like a premotion Like a foretelling A chance for me to hop at A plan for me to utilize I understand your emotions I abuse them before you realize I’m nothing special I can’t understand myself I’m empathetic yet I can’t put myself in my own shoes. Given a decision I don’t know what I’ll do. I’m driven yet not I’m a perfectionist surrounded by his own imperfection I’m struggling but I’m not The list goes beyond my conception My brain is a labyrinth created For my protection I’m empathetic but not sympathetic I care but only materially I can only think pragmatically Perhaps I’m not a person But instead something dead

Empathy
A new horizon brings new hope; Hope seekers gather here Treasure and Riches is what they hear; Kings proclaim an ant is an elephant Creating conflict all anew; When you gather at the horizon in search of hope In its stead, the church chimes ring red; They come for the gold And leave to the rich man below Despair is all they know; Hope is on the Horizon for new adventurers to seek Hand in hand the cycle repeats Hope brought up So it can crash down; Leaving nothing left Not even the crown; Pandora’s Box foretells Do not trust it A wolf in sheep's clothing; Hope Masked despair; A new horizon brings new hope; Beware;
