I see that you’re alone
In agonizing pain you groan
Now I don’t know the cause
But I’m willing to help for a long pause
You see I’ve been there
Backed up into a corner
The only way out forward
I’ll give you a helping hand
I’ll create a foundation for you to stand
I just ask you do not forget this
You help someone else without a wince
Simply because they need it
I know your action will transmit

My love and I,
Stare at the sky.
Trying to grasp
The size we only can gasp.
Thankfully the refreshing spring air
Rushes us with calm care
Now we can finally take in the view
We can watch the clouds pass through
On top of a hill with soft grass
We gently close our eyes and pass

I am your biggest enemy
That annoying disruptive archenemy
I am the devil’s advocate
The answer that can’t wait
I am the, what if, that cannot
That heart dropping second thought
I am that itch you can’t reach
That dreaded wedding speech
I am the chair leg that stubs your toe
The dreadful bad hair day photo
I am the daily agonizing frustration
But these moments give me this admiration
To be happy and thankful for those times
That make it worth wild to live a lifetime.

I am baffled by your belief
That you actually think you’re just
That you have this idea to become commander in chief
Don’t count my vote; you do not have my trust
Though you’re intelligence is incredible
Which makes it that more ridiculous
Your everyday actions are certainly not credible
What scares me is that you are even meticulous
Because if you are aware of your actions
Then that makes you cruel and unsuitable
I believe that you’ll only care about a small fraction
Since you’re smart you can see the logic is irrefutable
Take a moment to see, how you make people feel
There you will see what you perceive is not real

I am the sun without shade
My presence shall never fade
When I see you cry
I wonder why
What caused you to tear?
My darling you should have no fear
You are under my protection
Your love in me is like a deadly infection
In every cell atom and my soul
I would escape the largest black hole
For you are my heart beat
The sweetest most desirable treat

Everyday we shall put on a mask
To hide the misery of doing our daily task
Instead of being ourselves we will conform
Inside lies the most violent storm
We shall hide from the truth
We have not been ourselves since our youth
We shall not enjoy the childish pleasures
Instead we’ll concentrate on meaningless treasures
When we get to that age
We’ll be disappointed and in rage
That we weren’t gutsy or brave
That we were just a pawn just a slave
offshoot from we wear the mask from Paul Laurence Dunbar

When I look at you
I see past the tip of the iceberg
For some reason you hide your potential
And I am truly puzzled
I know what you’re meant to be
What you have the potential to be
And it is beautiful
I pray you take a leap of faith
Because I know you will not fall
You will spread your wings
Catch the breeze and sail
