I'll dance, but only to the rhythm
Of a true pulse.

The most interesting souls I've
Met were the ones least

Interested in being seen as
One.

I have the nose of a poet; can
Smell fakeness from a

Heartbeat
Away.

Children lie.
The rest don't even care to.

As I remember the years
Seeing your eyes

As you looked at me

Another potion of life
As we made this silent promise

You held my hand

Staring at the perfect moon
Listening to this song

I only see your smile
Until this potion remains

For as long as your face smiles
Twinkles of the daring night

You are my everything
And in you I see all of life's bounties

A magical moon
Signs your name in the sky

As No veil holds us apart
We start the best years of life

In love with a potion
We share in elixir nights

We both stared into a future
We knew exists beyond borders

Every stare would shake my being
As coincidence placed us together

Each year was yet another promise
Of who we are in union

And what we will be forever
Through tîme

And a perfect moon
Dear Love
Never worry
I am yours

There was a time I didn't stop to smell the roses anymore
I just wanted to hide away from the world

He took my childhood
He took my trust
All because of his sick ******* of lust

It took me awhile to finally see
That he was to blame for the horrible, awful ...not me

Once I started cleaning out darkened cobwebs
and the craziness from my mind
Those roses started smelling sweeter and sweeter all the time
Despite all that evilness from him
I overcame and I am longer victim

He on the other hand I hear is not faring that well
Seems as though he has already cashed in that one way ticket to hell
He can never hurt me or anyone else for that matter ever again
He loses and ...I WIN

I was born to this world
backwards.
I hold so much love in my heart,
but seldom give it away.
I tuck it beneath my ribcage,
to keep the wolves at bay.

I wake each morning
to the promise of a coming day,
and hold my breath,
as the moon slowly fades away.

I am made of
whiskey & cigarettes,
mixed with
moonlight & moonshine.

I can light up the midnight sky,
or burn down the city lights.

Read my eyes not my
Lips, as my eyes move towards
You, without any thought.

on eve of springtime
a new horizon evolves
full of butterflies
Never give up things just take time x

Seagulls flying by
Morning yawns
to a brand new day
First thing I heard when I woke this morn was seagulls :)

Bopping on night kitchen floor
Time for a long rest

I've lost a lot of people and my soul won't heal from that...but my body will. And as long as it is able I will keep running,and if I can't run then I will walk. If I can no longer walk then I will crawl. When crawling is useless then I will pray. However it is I will find a way to keep on moving.

I hope this strikes a nerve in you
To tell you that yes
I have blood in me too.

Someone was shot today
Execution style on their knees
Weak and unable to live on their feet
For fighting for what they believe.

All anyone ever wanted in life was peace
If you close your eyes like Lennon said
You'd see more than you would with them open

Black
White
Asian
Hispanic
Russian
Cuban
I don't care what you are

We all bleed red.
If it's blood that is  needed to be spilled to show

Then take it from the history books.
War shouldn't be all we know.

One day I want my babies to feel safe
And have friends of every race
And love the color of their blood,
Not just the color of their skin.

I want them to love the person they love
Because their personality is colorful.

I don't want them to care about equality
Because we're all God's children
He put us all here.
Isn't that equal enough?
After everything every one is saying on the news..I think the world needs some prayers.

Just like the finest wine
Just like you
The finest things age sweeter
And become better with each day
