We are like fine wine, we age well over time
When I die, dear Mother
don't give my body away
to science.

I'd rather have it given away to poetry.

I want people to cut me open
and observe
how my bones were riddled with
melancholic verses of joyful pasts.

They have to see
the scarlet of my blood was the hue
I stole from the sunsets of
wishful thoughts.

Dear Mother,
give my body away
to the art of writing:
for they have to look past
everything they have ever learned.

They must know
of how much I loved and I lost,
and how that made the twine of my ribs
a story to tell.
Haven't written anything new in months.

Have you ever wanted to end your life,
run away from the pain you hide.
You are not alone I promise you,
together we can say goodnight.
I will be all alone on the day that I leave this place,
you will be in my memory as I dance through the pearly gates.

(chorus)
Loving you was easy to do,
I watch you cry and wipe the tears from your face.
Loving you was easy to do,
I say goodbye and leave a warm embrace.

I lay in a field of flowers under a pedestal,
I don't know the day or the hour but I know I've got to go.
Do I believe everything I see and hear?
I feel I'm stuck in limbo and I pray the end is near.
So, I wave goodbye to my friends and family,
where I'm going, I promise I will be happier.

I see a rabbit walking with a squirrel
into a forest with trees as white as pearls.
In comes a raccoon waving at his friends.
Welcome to a place where happiness will never end.

(chorus here)

Can you feel me when I say that you are not alone,
I know you are listening to me, so join me and together
we'll build a beautiful home, full of music and melody,
we'll dance into our tomb, together we will sing.

(chorus here)

As I lay on my bed I look to the sky,
through the clouds inside my mind,
and I know that I think I rather be dreaming.
Have you ever wanted to end your life,
run away from the pain you hide?
You are not alone I promise you,
together we can say goodnight.

I wonder if anyone will actually see me. The real me. The serious me. The weird me. The rude me. The nice me. The me that everyone says that's beautiful apparently. I wonder if anyone will see through that fake me thing I use everyday. The fake me where I don't know what to say, the one that's always quiet because of what she thinks inside, the one that never really shares her opinions or feelings to the world when she wishes she could,  the one that hides because of the fear of being judged.
I wonder if anyone saw through my fake me. But I'm sure no one did. Otherwise I probably wouldn't hate me.
The me's in my life...

The scent of the burning flesh !

We are re-born !

And only love

Only love

Only love

The one true almost nothing you can hardly see it eternity

That looks like us

Both you and me

There's a War comin on

It's been a comin on

For 1000
Years

Everybody
Everywhere

You part of the War

There ain't No Escape

Things shall appear

Never been seen



You part of the World

Your only weapon is a True Heart

The One pure Breath

The Love you contain



A War goin on

You're out  in the Front

The one in the Lead



The Only One

Who truly knows

The War comin on

You are one
The Only One

The one that matters

The one who shall.
Determine the outcome


Determine the Meaning

Of

The War comin on

The War comin on
Send me words like gentle fingers,
poetic kisses, soft and slow,
send them here upon the ether
thoughts abound on starlight glow.
Words can bring such sweet sensation,
skin on skin fires lovers eyes,
hips and hearts in slow rotation
quiet moans and sated sighs.
Gently take my hand and lead me
to pleasure's peak, my heart's delight,
your words will be this souls companion
on this lonely moonstruck night.
It's cold outside,
rain falling down the sky,
foggy view, blurry sight,
I tremble with every step taken.

Not dream nor reality,
my consciousness fades,
words dance around their letters,
my beliefs collapsed.

Shapeshifting,
a brighter world sprouts,
limitless possibilities,
junctions merging their paths.

Efforts rewarded
with the sand of time,
barricades undone
time rewinds.

Splashs of water running down my face,
worlds drifting apart,
existence reentered,
my walk proceeds.
