Whisper in my ear
what I hear I won't tell anyone
Have no fear my dear
but the path is clear if you want to run
She told me " life's unfair, no one cares, and it's all my fault" I told her "don't despair, life needs to be taken with a grain of salt"

I'm hung by a noose that's tied to the gallows,
Cuz this silly goose tried to dive where it's shallow

I'm on another level
Out of touch
and you can't reach me
And frequently
I find I'm on my own frequency
But feasibly
And I believe
quite easily
I could receive
Affinity
From all who breathe
The same air as me
Before I leave.

I take wheelchairs upstairs
put down beers
pick up spares
I pay fares
and trade shares
I win bears at state fairs
I once ate a steak rare
By mistake
When I was in daycare

Your eyes are closed
to lies exposed
your rights imposed
the life you chose

This poem I loan is so well-known just home alone with no cell phone
Derek Mar 2019
There's only one tree in our field of view
There's only one me, there's only one you
The Stars I see, in your eyes so blue
The sound of the sea, surrounding us two
Together we'll be, forever, it's true.
