Some people say I'm a fool
Because I still believe in you
I still believe in love
For the world and all of you

I may be a fool
I will not submit to hate
I believe there will be peace
Everyone accepted and free

Some people say I'm a fool
A dreamer of things that can't come true
But I won't give up on my fellow man
Peace and love will eventually win
This fool will keep on striving
Until my very end
Peace Love and Happiness
Write  On!

I can see clearer
through these eyes of time.
I keep them wide open!
I search out realities of which
I choose to pay attention to and know the truth about.
I have no lazy close minded opinions.
If I do, please let me know and I will change them.

Sometimes I feel so sad
burdened with the invisible
crying between heavy sighs
breaking under pain of a misty loss.

I'm alone in those times
under a sky of long past
in a place where moments gather dust
with faces I pine to see again.

Envelopes me a darkness
as thick as the feather of raven
stifling suffocating all I have
making what I lost on the way
golden treasures.

Sometimes I feel so sad
weighed like a blade of grass beneath brick
crying upon this passage a while
rowing rivers into the sea.

My head is a paper weight again
Anchoring my pen
I can't write anymore
My poems now folklore
Though no one remembers them

There was a time when words cluttered my mind
Now, they're hard to find
I never know what to say
Besides, words hold no sway when others mold them like clay
and then toss them away
It seems like a waste of time

I keep it all now
I eat it and breathe it
I've been forced to believe it
So I just shut myself down
Although I still walk around
