i love to watch the sunrise breaking at the dawn
in between the mountains bringing in the morn,

lighting up the valleys and its pastures green
such a lovely sight one that must be seen.

it gives a sense of freedom and makes you feel so free
this lovely piece of nature for all the world to see

Do you demand you changed me
And wish to get away with it?
With every phase of life tells me
To be someone new,
Do you demand you created a new me
And be proud of it, too?
With every year that passes by
My heart feels a little less
And a little less I cry,
Do you demand you've caged me
So I can never really fly?
Ask me if I learned
Every time I froze
Every time I burned.
Do you demand you've loved me
When love is something you could never earn?

The symptom of an income
Harboring distrust

Bank accounts and whereabouts
Shoulder nod
Another facade
A deadly game we play

Forever young and steady
Regardless of the say

Can we talk tomorrow
It's better just that way

if i wrote a poem to every boy that broke my heart
that would be a long work of art
and in the end i would be the only one to blame
confiding and trusting in another
hoping they won't cause me any pain
only to be disappointed
once again.

Do not fall in love
with an artist like me,

because upon inspection
you will find obsession
poetically enthralling,
and passion all consuming.
I will treasure
all acts of pleasuring you
to  an ******* quality
in excessive quantity.

Do not fall in love
with an artist like me,

because I am passionate
and extremely engaging
sparing all other engagements
to be in your stunning presence.

Do not fall in love
with an artist like me,

because my nature
is solitary,
and though I tarry
with you
I will be forced to
find moments
for myself.
Though, I longed to be
devoured by your desire
and engulfed by my adoration
of you
I will need time to reflect on
everything.
  
Do not fall in love
with an artist like me,

no matter how hard I pursue you
because I cannot promise you forever
no matter how much I want to.
I can only give you
this brief spectacular sparkling moment
in eternity.

I still forgive through the trees of what is relevant,
life's a game,
the air is polluted,
your world leaders are evil,
Trying to forget the past but noticed I already did,
some humans tell tales,
poverty goes higher,
the gas prices increase,
Delusional people maybe your parents in a heartbeat,
racist kind emerges,
kids get flu shots,
we are all in a mans world of corruption.

Believe me , don't believe me, only heed me.

most people see me as
a happy person because
i laugh easily,
i smile a lot,
i joke a lot.

but deep down
in my heart,
i am fragile,
i can get hurt easily,
but i choose to not
show it to the world.

instead of being sad,
i choose to laugh to cover it.
maybe you can call me
"the queen of the mask"

by this,
you can tell
that most of the time
when I'm laughing,
I'm not really laughing,
i was trying so hard to hide
my sadness.

To no ideological cause do I subscribe
don't ask me to join your Grand Parade
I'm known in town as founder of Society Absurd
I could never be counted as one who would make the grade.

There is only one letter
difference
from feeling lovely-
and lonely.
