REAL
These nights
Seem odd
Relaxing but out of place
Maybe I am out of place
I came to the conclusion
I think about the future and past too Much
I have forgotten the art of
Enjoying the day
How?
Slipped right out of my  fingers
Perphaps it's my fault
I may have had "fun"
But I fell behind a bit
Now I'm catching up

******* why does society
Make me have to speed of my life up

Why can't I just live off the land
Enjoy the companie  of nature
And the sky

For the remainder of my life

How sad

You can show me the door and tell me what to do
But I'd never have the courage to walk through.

A Place Of Love

She held me closer than life itself
Arms caressed my shaking body
For until now I only dreamed of love
In some old downtown hotel lobby

The busboy held the lift doors open
And my legs carried me on
With her still holding me
Hoping that today wasn't gone

This hotel of love for all that stay
Opens to all lone hearts
With dreams that climb way up high
And sleep upon the stars

Your Kiss

I keep licking my lips
trying to re-taste you
remember you.

Using my tongue like a
defibulator reviving
the moment.

Reliving the gentle soft press
of the sweetest lips
in the world.
For you

I'm not alone but still sometimes it seems
so much alone, and often in my dreams
just like the one who calls me "Dear"
you speak my name and draw me near
but leave me hanging, way up on these beams

and waking, suddenly it's very clear
I'm climbing on this bridge from there to here
eternal space surrounds me and
a sense of love confounds me, when
in reasoning, I think ought to fear

"Gonna be alright", You say,  I ought to know
I've never been a stranger to the show
you play the song, I know the score
we wrote the music long before
You'll never leave, you say, come on, let's go.

I think too much I'm told, I know it's true
but that's okay, this traveling mind will do
it's time to put this girl to sleep
my thoughts will settle in the deep
but slumber stirs the climber in us too.

You may not like the place you're in
But it won't go away
Till you stand for your convictions
Believe in the words you say

You can have the best intentions
And still wallow in the mire
Stand firm in your decision
In the changing of desires

You need to look within yourself
To figure it all out
That is where the change begins
Beyond a shadow of a doubt

Once you decide to do that
You'll find it paramount
With the place that you're now at
How'd you ever do without
