See the stars in the night sky
the clear blue seas
and the architecture of shanghai.
See art
the beauty of the world
and the passion of the human heart.

Smell the roses, tulips and lilies
the perfumes and aftershaves
and the over powering smell of chilies.
Smell the coffee, the toast and the flowers
the morning after a rain storm
and the bread in its infant hours.

Touch the sand
the animals of the world
and the many animals that live on the land.
Touch the fabrics
the rivers
and the seas

Feel the wind
the rain as it falls
and the snow hitting your face.
Feel the coldness
the warmness
and the change in temperature.

Hear the birds
the laughter
and the tears.
Hear the dogs
the cats
and the music of the world.

You can hear a pin drop
you can manipulate anyone
you can see things others do not
WHY
because so many are silent
so many waste their mind
AND
so many walk around without looking, without seeing

Your family and friends tell you to be quite
you're told not to ask questions
you're told to accept what is
you're told that you will be punished.
So while everyone you know sits silent
while everyone you know never asks why
while all the people in your life accepts everything
and while they sit in fear
You hold your head up high
you use your voice
you ask questions
you fight for change
you don't feel fear

The world around you might be silent
but they are always listening
and each day
the world is getting louder
the world is being heard!
If you believe something is the right thing share it with the world

certain things are not the right things, these include but are not limited to (hurting people/animals in anyway)
that's a big no no

Live free of pain
live free of horror
live for today
and for tomorrow
live in peace
live in love
live free
live good

Will part of us live on in others
will our dreams remain
will our love never end
are we infinite?

Space, surely it is infinite
never ending, just like no beginning
we could travel the stars for infinity
but is Space really infinite.

Life, now surely
it's been here for so long
in some form.
Could it exist else where
Mars, Titan, else where
so if Space is infinite
could life be

Ideas, imagination, surely they must be
they make up who we are
they gave us architecture
books, music, art
Ideas and imagination have existed for as long as us
so are they infinite

If none of the others, then surely technology
surely that is infinite
Cars, computers, phones, AI
surely technology will live on
in some form
it must be infinite

HUMANS
If our dreams, our love
If space, if life
If our ideas, our imagination, our technology
If one of them lives on, if just one of them is infinite
then could Humans be infinite

Where does it end
Hell on Earth
Hell in dreams
Hell in death
where is heaven
where is peace
searching amongst this hatred, anger, violence
nothing but Hell
where does it end

12 am on Thursday morning
kissing and hugging
cheering and laughing
celebrations and fireworks
drinking and drinking
Happy New Year to the world

End of 14 beginning of 15
out with the old and in with the new
what will 2015 bring you.
12 am on Thursday morning
Happy New Year to the world

Tears running down my cheek
pain that can not be seen
hiding
hiding the truth
hiding my fears
hiding everything that you can not see

you never play over the good memories
your mind tells you none exist
just the bad, the ones that make you sad.
Tears running down my cheek
as I hide the truth
and hide my fears

You see the time, but no motivation
nothing pushing to get you up
nothing pushing you to do anything
it's comfortable, it's warm, it's the last remaining place where good things happen
we see the time and decide to hide
hide away in our beds
hide away in our dreams

Nothings wrong becomes your default response
but deep down you know you need help
but at the surface you convince yourself you are strong
strong enough to win a battle that you are in fact losing
so you hide
you hide the truth
your fears
all while tears run down your cheek
If you or someone you know suffers from depression, please seek professional help.
