My city has 4 sides and those sides have millions of people with two eyes and a nose and a brain that gives them the power to decide the future and look to the past for lessons but staring in the rear view mirror will cause you to miss blessings

Why are we so in denial when we're clearly unhappy. And then we're hesitant to change,
I swear we as humans (especially me) are all kinda twisted and demented

If I could stay in imprint of your bed forever,
It's smells of unwanted dreams
And roses.
Flowers so sweet
They kiss my neck,
My legs,
My bare chest as it beats to your sleeping eyes.
They flutter,
I know your dreaming.

If I could lie here forever
I might reach up and touch your check,
To feel the heat of your thoughts as they seep into my fingertips.

Though I know you want me gone
When you are awake.
So if I were to lie there forever
In the imprint of your bed,
Such  lies
Would drive me mad,
I gather my fingertips and leave unwanted affection where it may lay
Naked next to you.

Dear Colorado,
Are you still awake?
You're like a fantasy I have
Like I risk I have to take
How have you been?
It feels like years since we kissed
How many people come your way?
How many of them do you miss?
I think what you said was true
I'm gonna die alone and sad
But I've grown to realize
That it wouldn't be that bad
Just let me see you again
At least one more time
Once more, and I'll never call
I wanna die under your sky

I heard Isaiah call to say,
Listen to me in silence today,
Let the sacred light guide our way,
Isaiah called to us to say,
Listen to me in silence today,
In quiet stillness in your hearts,
Listen to me, don't let us part,
One light of God to lead the way,
For Peace on Earth, let us pray,
Listen to me in silence today,
I heard Isaiah call to say.
A thought from the Bible. Feedback welcome.

To my brothers in Faith,
This is what I'd like to say,
If our paths should cross one day,
Thanks to each of one of you,
For all the wonders that you do.
How to express my gratitude?
Pray for blessings for each of you,
Our gifts to share is what to do,
To my brothers in my humble faith,
As our guiding Lord does sayeth......
This is what I'd like to say,
If our paths should cross one day,
Thanks to each of you today.
For our humble community of faith. Feedback welcome.
Every time I awake from slumber,
I glance around my room,
Expecting to see you here.

I sleep with my door unlocked.
*You know this.
You
have to hold tight
to that hundred dollar hat.

You
have to watch
the puddles
in those two hundred dollar shoes.

You
have to stop muttering '****'
under your breath.

You
have to 'wait now'
this isn't my life.

You
can keep muttering
'****' under your breath.
