‎Wonderlands and questions within.
Many come, many go
No one can handle it, so their minds spin
And what they go through
Is a pain all of it's own
Thoughts to be seen
Fully engaged and fully grown
What does it all mean?
Simple, we're all free
Free of thought
Free to bee
Free and yet freedom is still sought

A shadow in the light.
‎What is a smile ?
If not a sin?
What is a smile?
If not feelings hidden...

Tears in between
Words mixed in as lies
Beauty indeed, never seen
In these curves, time flies

Complications and rough times
cheapened and weakened
Worst then pennies and dimes
Scars now deepened...

Worry inside
Love inside  too
Happy outside
Hypocrisy outside too...

Rocked and shocked
Feelings intertwined
Side to side aligned
Blocked and locked
Emotions unseen
Broken dreams
Days of teen
Years of ever-lasting sadness streams

Farewell, farewell...
Alfredo Prado Feb 2014
My heart aches whenever I think of you
So I turn on the radio, but every song
I turn to
Is about us
From the fairy tale love story
To the couple always fighting, that made you worry
So I turn it off and cry
Away I wanna fly
From every sad memory
I turn off the car
And throw your pictures on the dashboard
Step out for a minute
And wish for more
You were everything to me
I want things to be...
Like they were before
And it might seem dumb
But eternity
was just a term for me
And love that lasted not
Shall be reborn and given light
Love's path our heart shall take...
And our souls through it happiness shall make...

Life
Life
Life
What is life?
Greens reds and blues?
Blacks And whites for those deprived
Tints and hues.
Separation and unity
Combined from seperate views
In one as conformity
For passion
For love
For fashion
For hate
For fake
And for fate
We dress and we wine
We stress and we shine

stars they say
Scars the soul
As it heals in a way
Lies we are told
Lies we believe
Lies we repeat
Lies we never achieve
Lies we defeat
The truth indeed-
Without a doubt
Will set us free
Yet we scream and shout
We scream and shout...

Hidden in a box
Hidden In lies
Wisdom in detox
Purpose dies
Drugs stuck
Freedom a game
Of nothing but luck
Wilderness wildly tame
Alfredo Prado Feb 2014
Freedom rules the land,
Yet, we're stuck in social chains
Government and politics only for the rich man
People cry when it rains
Yet, others yearn for it
So we're lead by laws without contentment
People raid and riot,
But end up in chains and imprisonment
They're called criminals,
Criminals of social hurt and power war,
Rugged, selfish rabid, wild animals
So long they shall scar
For their error was that of an icon
But recognition they get none...
