Must we see with our eyes? No our heart is not blind nor is our soul. Look with those, and you will see true blessing in all, a flower may grow next to a ****, but both have the same value, we just use our eyes, we compare. We judge and distrust and discriminate. So no more use of the eyes express with the soul love with heart. You the world the songs the grass, the old cranky neighbours, everything including you will drift, and all will turn colourful

It breaks my heart to see how easy it is for you.

One word
One nasty word
Is all it takes
For my world to come
Crashing down
One word from you
Is a thousand words of others
One word from you
Breaks me
Or makes me

I am not stupid
I know your game
Hurt me so you can protect me
From yourself
No matter what my opinion will
Never change and I will always
Love you just the same
Endlessly
I see you looking at the sunset
I want you to run out and touch it
don't sit there with wanderlust
live out your dreams

spend time chasing horizons
don't hold back
I want you to experience life
create memories that will last

but when you're done chasing adventures
come back

I can't hold your hand as you climb through life
I can only watch as you mold into yourself
just know that I'll be here
I'll be here when you look back

but baby please
please, *come back
I still miss you
but more than that
I miss the days
when I was deluded enough
to believe I didn't
miss you anymore.
If I was to write a poem
On the story of my life
Words would fill those pages
As the stars steal the sky.*
