Silence kills...when it gets too quiet, blow on that loud.
Tradition instills...do everything right so your family is proud.
I'm above that, literally..
Exhale the *******, Inhale the magic- as I observe from my cloud.
The storm always chases me...
Money defaces me...
These children have faith in me..
I'm wasted, yes me.
I've enslaved me...
Jesus, What happened to the brave me?
White owl B's or ZigZag J's- sweet...
Posted...you modern material kids confuse the twittering for tweets.
wish I could stay up for days...
'Cuz The Rebel's rebellion's never a passing phase.
I'm learned and I never even showed up for class.
But thoughts and words scream over the motions 'cuz I think fast.
All the glory to best, too bad trends, fads, and that 15 minutes won't last.

The words on my mind, write themselves on the paper.
Philosophy spilled out, disappears into vapor.
Restless always, the mentality of a drifter...
Chameleon to my surroundings, I am the shape shifter.
Shift, shift all directions, Yes I get like the wind.
Was the happiness real when the Cheshire cat grinned?
I'm lost and I'm found...listen to me, a broken record spinning around and around. Handcuffed, gagged and bound...got my foot in my mouth.
Did I really hear that sound? Did you hear that flow?
Where did the seed come from that makes the idea grow.
Where do we go if we spontaneously combust?
Build up the walls, down with the trust...
A bomb in the chest counting down- self destruct.
Reality set on fire, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
And it cant end now, it's never enough.
Greed is a sin, it's deadlier than lust...
To lust is to want, to want is to need.
Release your desires, I'm Pandora's box freed.
Just a dream, part of your subconscious...
Reoccurring every night, I'm a nightmare obnoxious.
Romeo and Juliet, I'm poison dead toxic.
Within chaos there is beauty, within me there's no logic...
Made up of fragments scattered, I aim to climb the ladder.
Thousands of me, reflect...Jagged Shards- a mirror shattered..
A body ******, beaten, bruised, and battered..
It's my Fabric of being that's torn and tattered.
I'll be just a drifter, I wander alone...
Left my skeletons locked in the closet at home...
Can't read me The Riot Act, I write truths of my own.

I look in the mirror but it ain't my reflection.
Always been a dreamer but dreams can be deception.
Been living and loving with no method of protection,
The day my son was born was the date of inception.
I'm walking as much away each day as I am toward,
My mind stuck on rewind, my life on fast forward...
All the coming and going- when it ends I begin,
I've got a lot of heart but my sanity's stretched thin,
Like puzzle pieces...or the answer to a riddle;
I fight for a lot 'cuz I came from a little...
Like wanting to be touched and having someone hit you,
Being the hand that feeds, but the hungry dog still bit you.
Now I look before I leap or I don't leap at all
I've got no safety net, every day's a free fall...
Define beauty in someone else's eyes,
Everyday I'm older and everybody dies.

Where would I be if I didn't have you,
You're the only thing I have...
The only love that's real,
When you're in my arms it's the only thing I feel.
You've got the best of me.

Everything we are is real in being seen,
So mean what you say and say what you mean.
Look in my eyes through the window is my soul-
Plus secrets that can't hurts us, a side you'll never know...
I buried all of my pain a long time ago,
Left behind all of the things that could've swallowed us whole.
Now I have you, and everyday I watch you grow,
Lifted a passion out of me that I thought wasn't so.
And it's you, it's you that makes me better...
There's times I might break but I'll never ever shatter.
You being mine could never be wrong,
You straightened out my path when I was lost for so long.
I used to pray, I just wanted to be saved,
I wanted to do right but I didn't know the way...
When you're older, I'll tell you all of these things
And how you were God's gift to me, the angel to my wings.

So heavenly, wait at the pearly gates to meet me.
And when I reach the top only angels there to greet me.
So devious, not even hells demons can defeat me...
They try to bring me down but the darkness cannot reach me.
And I've got my own ways so no maze can mislead me,
There's a message that I am stressing and it's -do not misread me.
On a mission to make me, so no champion will succeed me,
Because we all know success is there for the taking.
History in the making, it's the world that we're shaping..

A new world, a world newly ordered,
Between our two worlds, who draws the borders?
Imaginary lines define who we'll be,
Imaginary boxes confine what comes free.
So here I stand so close to the edge,
Broke out of the box to reveal what comes next.
Here I am like The Queen of the ******...
The ruler of them all, the fairest in the land.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, for every rise there is a fall..
It's all for one and one for all,
I said I'd come if you should call.
I'm like snow white or maybe sleeping beauty,
No- I'm a soldier, G.I. Jane ready reporting for duty...
One in a million, disguised lady chameleon,
In an insane population, 6 point something billion.
This world is fuxked, we're straight jacket comfy
Far beyond broken, fell off our rockers- humpty dumpty.
And all the king's horses and all the king's men,
Couldn't put it back together again...

So here I am, strong I stand,
The fire has been lit, the flame will be fanned.
Let's rule the world through our rhymes and song,
Grabbing my flute, Pay the piper, and you may skip along.

Release me, Refuse me...
Throw me away to pick me up.
Only to Reduce me and Reuse me.

Love mutation, thus became my fixation narration,
Our intimate negation became the act of smug suffocation-

Asphyxiation definition, to produce asphyxia;
Amuse me.
Your muse, I only tease you,
I will keep but never please or appease you.
Satin skin to satisfy, I will not relieve you.
Reconcile, pacify, mollify, propitiate,
Satisfy, indulge, gratify, conciliate,

Synonyms for your pleasure are antonyms for mine-
The socio versus the ******- without emotion I will win you every time.

Aside from love and the legacy of whom you touched and were touched by in this,
if you are and were as one should be,
You will not leave this place carrying more than you arrived with.
So tell me, of what value are material things truly?
So many of us cling so tightly to imagined selves...but, who are you, really?
With having nothing to lose but your fear of loss.
Live simply to know that- it is the simplest things we should happily live for,
or else being happy will never be simple-
and your living will be wasted on dying.

I used my raging rhetoric to explore him.
high flown style; he told me he could read me,
and how my story could never bore him.
Without answers to the questions I stated but never asked-
He crossed the threshold, plunging into our heaviness together vast.

My excessive use of verbal ornamentation aside...
I was touched beyond words, beyond the flesh, and past the bones and organs inside.
He didn't play me, but played off of and on still my notes instead,
He fingered every key, playfully- black and white, day and night, dark and light
and then turned to me and said-

He said nothing, I don't think-I couldn't think
I couldn't hear,
I couldn't hear passed the piercing ringing interrupting us from inside my ears...
It's 4A.M., Now with eyes open to the blank black locally programmed T.V. Screen,
That faceless man telling me about the required weekly test woke me
from my sweetest dream.
