Time To Yourself
CA Smith Feb 2018
If you need a little time to yourself
We can put this conversation on the shelf
There's really no hurry
No need to worry

It'll be right here where we left it
Maybe tomorrow, or maybe in a bit

Comfort from solidarity, I can't relate
The quiet chaos of my thoughts, I could never appreciate

You apologise and you say you're sorry
There's really no reason to get fret
Because I understand your story
And what you need, I'll let you get

So take some time to yourself today
And I'll find something to do
Until you're done and ready
And I'll pick back up,
Where I left off with you

Simple
CA Smith Feb 2018
When....
There are no words that you can say.
There is nothing your friend feels they could do.
To help them; here is a tip I have for you.
Simple and easy, the best comforts are.
Not even words are needed, for the best heart to heart.
All you gotta do, is make them feel snug.
Give your friend a simple hug.

Planted Years Ago
CA Smith Feb 2018
Planted years ago,
By a laborer only I know

A sapling of fear and doubt,
Now stands as the tallest tree

Poked
CA Smith Feb 2018
A prickly poke,
a small dose,
of the feeling,
that I abhor the most.

A feeling
of love,
of sorrow,
of when we fell apart.

Yet another needles swoops,
Through the cloth it goes,
and a new ***** to my finger,
I reluctantly accept.

For this needle,
will thread a new life;
a life sewn together with you.

Nirvana
CA Smith Feb 2018
Memories and emotions,
sleeping in silence.
The mind lies dormant.

The thoughts awaken,
they begin to stir,
but just let them be.

Embrace the journey.
Enjoy the seat.

For a secret pleasure it is,
discovering a personal eternity.

Sunday Strolling
CA Smith Feb 2018
Just passing through,
simply to absorb the wonderful view.

What a pleasure it can be,
strolling through a forest on a Sunday afternoon.

A Love Letter, To Sleep
CA Smith Feb 2018
Oh what I would give to throw the alarm clock away
Just you and me, sleep, for an entire day
Because you're my best friend
You know it's true
When I'm in your presence, I never feel blue
Oh, sleep, I share all my dreams with you

A new sight we could see
If only for a minute
But the clock keeps ticking
And soon this slumber will have to finish

Another minute today?
No, maybe an hour, let me hit the snooze, please!
Just a little more slumber to put my mind at ease!

Buzz. Buzz.
Oh life comes calling,
This time I won't pick up the phone
Just you and me, sleep
We'd never be alone

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.
Please not again!
Oh, sleep, why can't you just stay?
I'll ignore my responsibilities,
if only for a day!

Buzzzzzzzz. Buzzzzzzzz.
Our relationship, this alarm always seems to complicate
It's just that, when I'm with you, you always make me late!

Buzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Okay, fine, this time I'll get up
But only because my snooze button,
Has finally had enough

A world of your own
CA Smith Feb 2018
Imagine everyone had wings
They could fly to every single thing
Never walking about and around
Instead flying up and down
Around the skies the people would be
For miles and miles our eyes could see

But, imagine, you, were one of a kind
And you had no wings but instead the only imaginative mind
Your mind could soar you to the heights of your thoughts
A place that others could explore not
At the same time that those people flew, you were stuck to the ground
Is it rather up in the sky or in yourself that you'd be found?

Because a world of your own, where others will never be
Is a world that only you could see
And what's better to experience?
A sight that everyone else knows,
Or a place that only you could go

Time Machine
CA Smith Feb 2018
If I had a time machine,
I'd have done this, I'd have done that
Taken that job, worn that goofy hat

If I had a time machine,
I'd save the world, and rescue those in need

If I had a time machine,
I'd live each day different

Never being afraid of what others might think,
I would undo any mistake in a wink
If I had a time machine,
I would be who I really wanted to be
A person of respect and stature,
People would finally look up to me

Or at least,
All this I tell myself, but it's not really the truth

Because if I actually had a time machine,
I would go back to my youth,
And instead of what I chose the first time
This time,
I'd choose you

Trapped
CA Smith Jan 2018
You move,
I stand still.
You shout,
I listen.
You search,
I am here.

In the desert,
Thirst is quenched.
In the storm,
The oceans rest.
In confusion,
Tranquility.

You want out,
I control every move.
When shouting for help,
I am all that's left.

Transforming reality into dreams,
Painting a tapestry of new life,
Splashing color onto a dark canvas,
Creating something from nothing,
And restoring a paradise once thought lost,
I twisted your path into a coil of despair.

Yet who will save you?
Only. Me.

Some time soon
Never

This evening
Never
A specific afternoon



When will we catch up?

Because I never will

Tomorrow Never Comes.........
So at least I have today

Tomorrow Never Comes.......
So why not stay?

Tomorrow Never Comes......
Today I don't have to forget about you

Tomorrow Never Comes......
Still, we let our hearts pull through


Tomorrow Is Here.
And you are gone
