Two boats float on the horizon,
as I watch the setting sun.
They put the picture in perspective,
how deep and far the water runs.
It makes my concerns seem awfully small now.
The vastness hits me like a bomb.
The burden of my ghosts lifts from my shoulders
and I think "Alayhim as-salaam"
Alayhim as-salaam should roughly translate to "peace be upon them all" if I'm correctly informed.
The way you left the relationship just shows the type of person you really are.
You don't care.

I have spent my whole life
looking into the distance
and watching black birds fly
over the trees

All these houses are boxes
and the fences are cages
and I am trapped here like a bird
with clipped wings

So I look at the horizon
at the far away trees and the
soaring black birds
and wonder what it's like to be free
Needs work

I'm sitting here
behind my eyes
I guess I'll never win
I sit before the mirror
on the outside looking in

Everyone on here's a lonesome poet
Just like me
Yet we all got eachother
So were not so lonely after all!!!

the water drips
and the pendulum swings
the other shoe drops
and the fat lady sings
the fist of God cracks
the scorpion stings
but nothing's as sad
as a child with

wings

outliving a child hurts
