how
can i find
my way
out of your arms
when
your eyes
are asking me
to stay
i kept flying away until you looked like a very small bug beneath me.
i didn't want to deal or feel so i flew.
i kept flying higher and higher,
the more i couldn't breathe, the wider my smile got.
i couldn't hear you screaming my name or the clutter of everybody.
flying,
flying,
flying
flying away.
Took my hand out my pocket

Blew on my thumb with all my might

Till I blew my hand up to

Ten times it's normal size

With my idea still a running

I raised my hand up high

Where I caught the perfect breeze

And flew off into the brightest sky

Today is a good day
A "poem" every day
Heaven, it's raining gifts!
Tired after working all shifts,
Dog, will do it in lifts,
Never stalling between gearshifts.
I'm
learning
to
love
the
sound of my feet
walking away
from
things
not
meant for me
yes
love
is
the
answer
love
will
conquer everything
despite
the
anger and pain
love
will
always
be
the
End game
Inspired by a friend a lady named Raggie
It’s you
Because no one else
Makes sense
To him
The certainty that gives
the clarity to see
a path lies beneath
the current uncertainty
Uncertain times cry out for some base line certainty
i used to pray god
would let me die. now i just
watch the clock standby.
