I don't remember your name And not everyone saw your picture the same But as you lay in the earth I can remember your joy to this day You were sick and you weren't to eat But the doc said this wasn't an illness to beat So a pizza was brought to you Mushrooms pepperoni sausage ricata cheese Slathered in sauce covering your face. Some one took a picture Some one who saw it's beauty in it Some one who knew that in that picture purest joy was expressed I do not remember your name but I can still see your face and I thank you For in your graceful moments of enjoying every ounce of the morsels taste you remind me in dark days when staring into the bitterness of death, One slice of pizza can shed light, while it may not beat the unyielding pressance it stays at bay allowing for rest.

Pizza
Anguish sinks and floods my mind Basking in a suble muting that covers and clouds A smile paint on rusted steel A clear path to the muddled mass below

Pass me a beer
As a boy I pushed time Wanted the next step Growing I began to wander the chronological path with weary Seeing misfortune ahead Soon I began to fight time pulling back Seeing the once warm welcoming beacon,  become a warning I struggle Alas time had no feeling It trudges independent of superfluous wants A requiem of life lived A glorious picture of futures Here I sit In the supreme present

Obsession
When I need to know whats going on in the world I dont turn to the chilling nightly tales inflated to mass hysteria I dont listen to the colorless depictions of the minority I look to the street, the uncensored illustrations of the heart annoymous entries into the ideas of the masses begging for peace a peace that can be reached not through force but belief in that the world we desire is the world that is

I drink to clarity to that point when you can see what your doing wrong to know each drop is the slowest of poison I lie and say its for the flavor carefully seeking each malt note but its for the clarity its to finally feel my pain to know my shame I drink to see it all then run I keep drinking to block it to start the cycle again

I drink
Death is described as a loss of a relationship I think this makes it to final Its not the end its a change You still have thier "nose" Meet on that day every year because of them People still look at you and remark how much you look act sound like them Its not the end of a relationship its the change to knowing they are part of you That you know what they would do They are there with you in you

Nothing is final
A young rose is used it beauty close concise but all look on its elegance and clear beauty simple like new love, small and only surface level As love grows deeper the rose blooms the layers and complexity continue to shine through and grow deeper with each passing day As a love grows in diversity like the many petals of a mature rose When a rose dies its either scattered, but like old memories of a broken love each brings a small amount of joy Or it is dried like and as true love is never forgotten, it will remain a mere memory of its once grandeur

Why a rose
I step onto the mat the sudden softness springs the other awake the one born of pain misery and focus everything deafens the world blocks out its me and them whoever wins the better no complaints no if onlys ones stronger ones weaker everything blanks out thought included it slows you down reaction after reaction wistle blows your hands raised the beast quiets till called on again

I have to thank you I could have kept my eyes closed Let forever go by and never see How you lied When I thought I was holding you high You were just pushing me low I thought I would hate to see you go But no when you go so does my doubt With you goes my fear My anger Why did you become this Why couldnt you stay her The girl I loved You change and used me I hid your abuse so I could love the old you You showed me shes gone I wish I was wrong
