Bring your love here, baby.
Bring your love here.

I simply said..
Bring your love here, lady.
Bring your love here, please do.

If you feel you deserve better and have hinted with signs and clues.
And he's not hardly ever hearing you.

This is , what you should do?
Just bring your love here, baby.
Bring your love here, right now.

Some must lose to see reality.
Of what they have before them?

So please, please do.
Bring your love here, baby.

You never had to worry about a single thing because love constantly will be offered.

Eyes and eyelids,
     Smoke and fire.
Eyes and eyelids,
     Star and sky.
Eyes and eyelids,
     Shell and pearl.
Eyes and eyelids,
     Cat and fur.
Eyes and eyelids,
     Light and blur.
Eyes and eyelids,
     Close, unfurl.

Eyes and eyelids,
     Her eyes and eyelids.*

That was the day she broke down the fence
to fly towards her secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

To move further with sheer confidence;
was certain to leave her nightmares behind,
she was untiring and keen.

Finally the time has come to reclaim her life.

After you left,
The air was heavy,
Stale.
Nothing brought me joy.
No one could replace the hole you left.
Deep in my chest,
Rotting my heart...

So when I saw you.
A measure of months later.
I was a beast with a broken heart.
You reached out to me,
Touched my skin,
My bones shattered.
My body cried out at the agony of your touch.
But my heart screamed out in ecstasy.

Scratch Ticket

Life has a funny way of working out
For example, I once won $100 on a scratch ticket and in the exact same hour a rock hit my windshield
It cost me $100 to replace it
When I met him
The universe was aligned
The stars hung themselves in constellations only we could see
We spoke a language all our own
And the razor blades that consistently sliced through my sanity became dull
Flowers grew from the cracks in my sidewalk
His voice was a song that I always wanted to listen to
With him by my side the world was a place that I was no longer afraid of
But life has a funny way of working itself out
Fear was like the Berlin Wall
Built overnight
Separating our hearts from ever beating together ever again
And I miss him
I miss him so much that I joined tinder
I miss him so much that I deleted tinder
I miss him so much that my recent ****** partners miss him
I miss him so much
that I'll look at pictures of deceased family members just to try and miss something that's actually gone
I miss him so much that I hide in the back corners of coffee shops and libraries just to be as invisible as he makes me feel
I miss him so much that I prayed to God to let me have him back
But even God was too busy to answer the phone
I wish I was a number on the clock so he would always have time for me
I wish I was a chapter in his text books so he would always have to study me
I wish I was the nicotine in his cigarettes so I could live in his resin lungs
But life has a funny way of working itself out

People seem to be
          sincere
when they say
to me
          thank you
for your service.

Perhaps they are.

But if they knew      
what I
          know...

Heard men screaming
for their mommies that I
          still hear,

Smelled
the ****** and
charred flesh I still
          smell,

dreamed
the dreams of gore,
not glory, I still
          dream,

I think
they would
          tell
the truth:

better you,
          than me,


Which may be
all they are really saying
          anyway.

When someone is in need
of a helping hand
take time to heed
and meet their command.
They will soon thank you
for all you've done
your help will be honest & true
making their life a successful one.
Now you are in their life now
never let you out of your sight
promise to help you somehow
especially to see the light.
Then you won't see dark again
it'll always be light of day
nothing to worry about then
got things going your way.
Think about what you got
everything besides each other
together you have a lot
sharing your love for each other.
