Here’s cheers to the ones who never gave up, who never gave in.
You’re the real hero, the real champion.
You are the one who never lets things or people get the best of you,
and I am so proud of you that you’ve become.
I promise you, when you beat that giant.
I will have everyone sing your fight song.

Here’s cheers to the ones who need a little encouragement,
I know that the road will get bumpy, but it won’t stay that way.
You can do anything that you set your mind to,
because I believe in you.

Here’s cheers to anyone who made a new milestone in their life,
because of that new milestone you know that everything is going to be alright.
The future may be a bit scary; but I promise you, you can do anything.
Here’s cheers to you.
Once a song we yelled until we couldn’t
Is now just a sentence with an instrument
We whisper from different paths.

Gallons of gas later
Leaves a tune who’s remnants
Is a melody I hum from my memory

Hanging like a scimitar
suspended in the sky,
the moon beside a gleaming star
is pleasing to the eye.
How desolate, this satellite
in airless ebon space
and yet, from here
‘tis beautiful
filagree & lace.

If I could love
the limping
ugly
afraid
part of me
That I drag through the mud
and thorns

If I could let
the transparent
clawing
screaming
silhouette speak
Instead of kicking it
into the basement

If I could put
my deepest human essence
onto paper
for everyone to see

Then.
Then, I could be free.
Cant stop shaking
My heart is breaking
Cant seem to find
What i left behind
Cant seem to cry
Because Love is a lie
How to know whats real
When you no longer feel
How to cope with pain
When theres so much
To drain
How to be happy when your alway sad
How can i be cranky when im sick of being mad
How to get up when im always falling down
How to hold someone close
When there's no ones around
How to feel  love without making another mistake
How Do i keep my heart together when its shattered and ready to break
time
without
sunshine
means
dull
and
gray
landscape
gray
and
dull
means
sunshine
without
time
Another short palindrome...
Sometimes
in the mornin'
dawn awakens
unquiet heart
    swaddled
   in a dream ―

       and
      i hear
    a whisper
    from a voice,
gentle as a burning
      candle,
 sing to me softly
without words

... a stirring
moment ripples ―
an unholdable dream
    fleeting;
    lapping
wakeless silence;
... vanishing , . .
    swilled
by the daylight
   just beyond
   closed eyes
     awoken

    and now
 it's only me
      again
