If I could dream catch her tonight
And Wake up with her eyes
Looking right at me
Then I’d be happy

So until then
I’ll keep my eyes close
Chasing a dream in the dark
Until something lights up my heart…
Francisco O Mar 2019
No one ever asked him why
Why his scars are so deep in his skin but he would never hurt a fly
Why he gives so much love even when his heart aches
Why he smiles through the bad days knowing that tomorrow is another day
Why he works so hard to go far but always ends up one step backward
Why he is good to others that do not care to be good back to him

So why not?
Is it because they are afraid they left one of those scars
Or that his heart aches for the love they don't give back
Maybe he smiles because no ever cared when he was sad
Or the step he takes back is because there isn't anything in front of him
And that he is good to all because he knows how it feels to not have a friend

I stand here waiting
For my last grain of sand
So I can see my lover
My greatest friend
Because the lord took her away
Before my chance
To make her my forever
Until the end

So I must be good
To see her again
And make every grain count
Just for her
To show her that I will always
Put our love first
Even though losing her
Felt the worst

I miss the sparkling star
I saw in her eyes
The same one I see
In the late night sky
When we used to drink
Those bottles of wine
And when just one look at her
Sent chills down my spine

It should have been me
You should have been mine
Now I’ll have to wait
For my sand of time
To drop it last grain
And take me back home
To the on that I love
The love of my life

Just because your life is falling apart
It doesn’t mean it can't be put back together
See sometimes those pieces just fall into place
Landing in the most unexpected ways
And you end up right where you’re supposed to be
Sometimes the worst moments in life
Can be so unclear to see the reason why
So you just have to close your eyes and trust
That leap of faith in whatever you believe
In your gut that it gets better
See I fell a thousand times
And I’m still standing
I’ve been broken down to a hundred pieces
And put together stronger
I have wanted to give up at least ten times in my life
But then realized why
When I have so much time to make a comeback
And not once have I regretted where I landed
Because once my life was done falling apart
I landed on my feet every time

Love is just a circle
It goes around and around and around
With no end
It’s just there
And when it’s not
It eventually comes back
But never gone
It didn’t start anywhere
And shows no signs of ending

Love is just a circle
with infinite possibilities
It’s not hiding around any corners
And just when you think that circle
Is as big as it can be
It gets bigger
So you can be loved
And give more love then there was before

Love is just a circle
So I will just wait around
For you to come
So I can love you
And you can love Me
For wherever in this circle you may be

DUI
They say I have a problem
Yet it isn’t really there’s
So I really don’t understand
Why they really ******* care

They say I have a problem
One that I can only solve
So I hear the words they have to say
Then let it all dissolve

They say I have a problem
That I’m really really high
So it might be best for me
If I didn’t even drive

They say I have a problem
That I just hit another car
They look really injured
And I should probably drive a far

They say I have a problem
I just might go to jail
So I’ll take another sniff and sip
And say what the hell
Francisco O Jan 2019
I’m lost
No idea where i'm going
Or where I will end up
I don't know how I will get where I am going
Or even if I want to go there
Maybe I might want to go somewhere else after
Maybe I might want to stay
But I do know one thing for sure
I do not care where
Or how
Or when
Or why
As long as you are there by my side
Because you are my compass
And with you i'm never lost
