Don't just bury the pain
Mask it with pills
The trauma will still be there until you face the ills

Once, a man had a dream
telling him

if you look, you shall find

Wrapping this message in
hopes and dreams, he laid it beside his heart
Leaving all things behind;
love...
family...
children...
to search of his calling

His home a nook
his friend a book
his heart he took
and threw it away

Days turned to weeks
...
weeks turned to months
...
months turned to years
...
though,
he sat,
looking weary eyes
to the horizon

A young man turned old
wishing for his dream to come true
without his heart

Slowly fading away;

Not realizing he was looking
in the wrong place

...

His heart still beating
beside the road
Look into your heart
and you will find.

But it's 3am, I captured the changes of advantage points in you.

This was not planned. You view the beautiful skyline above, when all I see is blue. Seeing through the naked eye occured rarely, with reflected risk.

Time is a mechanic, it still orbits our imaginations.

Some would have
You to believe that
     Love is blind

Love isn’t blind
       At all
Love sees every
        Color
Love does not require
Sameness to love
          
Love sees every shade
And every relishes
        In each one

Love seeks to understand
And give freedom of
    Expression to every
      Brilliant color

     Love has perfect
             Vision
That sees and celebrate
          Every color

           Like love
         I see color
       And it is indeed
             Beautiful
            
      Love in color
              It’ll
     Change your life

Relationships based predominantly on *** are like chewinggum:
Sure it's mouthwatering and juicy at first, but when the flavour goes you're left going through the motions. Sooner or later you're gonna bite your tongue or be spat out on the pavement and trampled upon.

All it would take is a simple fingertip
Sliding along the top of your shoulder
Moving slowly towards your neck

Leaning in and whispering
“I want you. Take me” quietly by your ear,
The breath of those words
Radiating warmth upon your neck
Igniting your skin for me alone to stroke
That.... that is just a bonus
