I am that which trades time
For opportunity
Love for freedom
And hate for impartial passion
A future oriented person. One who sacrifices the NOW for chance to strive forward in the future.

It's not a negative thing or bad way of living. It's just my perspective and preference.
Colm Nov 2020
Regardless of those outcomes
These comings and goings of great joy and unpleasantry  
Sing as my heartstrum stings
Bow and my base drum rows
For regardless of today aloud
Would you just be with me
My world for-unever in being

Together we'll forget the how
Having a great day? I rejoice with you. Having a horrible day? I suffer with you. Regardless of these and all of THIS. Can we just sit together for a moment and be still? Be chill?

In a world full of arrogance and immortal feeling
It's so easy to forget how very mortal we are

Don't tell me you were just a dream
That the skies you showed me were not bright
As dawn could eventually be.

And in growing day don't for a moment say
That our eyes were not brightened
By the sight of each other.

That our time was not spent wisely in
These discussions spanned
By the making of flowers grow again.

We power the world
We spin the tides
With just the understanding behind our different colored eyes.

Don't tell me you were just a dream
Now that my mind is certainly open wide
Like moons over the mountains high.

The ache is a wish — would you let me stay
Just to wallow in this mirrored time
For a little bit longer by each others side?
Sorry, I can't really speak anymore. But if you're there. Feel free to slow your heartrate, and read to this beat for full effect. Cya!

Put a river before me, dry
   I drink
   An insatiable sea I'll be

Set a star between myself and my sky
   And watch
   And wait
   And see (what I will be)

Sometimes
All a man can do is
B R E A T H E

Be with the current
Atop the stream
And alive within the breeze

Sometimes
All a man can do is
B E

I know you're running
Never still
Because I can see your feet
From this distance beneath
I know you're running
Even still
