You know
I have heard people
Talk about me

"Looking around"

"He does that to everyone"

I think the guy said

I'm not looking
At anyone
In particular

Just looking out
Into the gym

You know
Just to appreciate
The beauty of life

If you people have a problem
With me looking around
Well, so be it

Keep looking
Straight ahead

It's good to be
Aware of one's surroundings

You guy
Guy that does his deadlifts
And his kettlebells
On and on

Really
I'm just looking around

And what's the harm really?

Child of mine please know

All things have a season

All things have a time

If stars can fall, then crash and burn

Humans fight and fail to learn

Then time has nought to teach

The blind will never learn to see

And the deaf will fail to hear

Even mighty rivers run dry

And seas can also die

Today

my heart stopped beating

But time has taught me this...

Love is where you find it

Follow joy wherever you can

Hope can spring eternal

Fellowship remains in man

i'm not broken
sure
i've been through a lot
i've been beaten
and worse
i find it hard to trust
and sometimes
i trust
too much
i remain closed off
and yet open
so
wide
i am vulnerable
scared
an anxious bundle of worries
a truly happy soul
i love
i cry
i make bad choices
i believe in fairy tales
i believe in happy endings
yet i see dragons
in men
and their demons
within
but i see light too
in the hearts
of good men
and often
i cower
from both
i have lived
when i thought
i would die
i suffered
the things words
cannot say
and yet
i am not broken
**** that
the last thing
i will ever be
is broken
When i say dragons in the hearts of men.. i mean mankind.. not men, not at all. :o)

It is
Simply
Another
Day.

A day
Made for
Businessmen
And toy-makers.

It has no
Significance
In our world
Unless.

You are one
Of those who
Have loved
And lost.

And I pity
Anyone else who
Tries to
Symbolize it.

For I am
Not one of
Those people
So I am willing.










To let it be.
My true feelings about Father`s Day. I love my Dad, but Father`s Day is unneeded to show that. I can show it through my actions and...my words. Thank you for reading. I love you, Dad.
