I thought this was love,
but It feels more like a game
of tug of war between heart strings.
So. Wanna go out for a pint?*
That's what my dad says
Every time we board a plane
To England.

We do everything thoroughly.
Used to go every year, now
His pension only allows every
Other.

It's only right for him if he
Pays. I long since stopped arguing.
He gets tired from walking and
Sightseeing, but his eyes have that

Boyishness during it all that
Makes me believe in a God that
Rewards deserving old men with
Youth towards the end of old age.
If you sit down at set of sun
And count the acts that you have done,
And, counting, find
One self-denying deed, one word
That eased the heart of him who heard,
One glance most kind
That fell like sunshine where it went --
Then you may count that day well spent.

But if, through all the livelong day,
You've cheered no heart, by yea or nay --
If, through it all
You've nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face--
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost --
Then count that day as worse than lost.
Ah, but you know naught
Of the traipse of indignity
Ever so staggered in advance
By the chafe of love and lust

Oh to wander amidst
These crowds of judging eyes
Known by the happenings of a night
After a sip (or two) of wine
I miss you.

2. I miss you.

3. I miss you.

4. I spend two hours or maybe four wondering where you are and what exactly happened between us. I spend more time wondering about you then I do about the world.

5. I still miss you.

6. It's been over 68 days since I last saw your face, but it doesn't matter because I can still recall the way your lips felt, the way your hands touched me. I even remember the way your skin smells, I remember everything about you.

7. I read somewhere that you shouldn't beg someone to stay in your life. If they need to remove themselves allow them too. Perhaps there is more reason behind that fact than I come to justify in my own mind.

8. I think I fell in love with you.

9. I am in love with you.

10. I still miss you.

11. I still love you.

12. We were so bad for each other, but maybe love is a type of poison. One that we learn to endure.  

13. All of these are messages I wish I could send you.

14. Find happiness where ever you may be.

15. I'll still love you and I'll miss you dearly.

15. I'll be waiting for you.
If I could paint a picture with my words
A pallet of stars..rainbow of verbs
Illuminate the heavens for all to see
Bring everlasting peace to humanity
Alas I know it's just a dream
A *** has to boil to build up steam
There is no clock..Endless is time
A measurement of moments in our mind
Delusion's illusion..do you trust what you see?
Some were born to question society's vanity
Systems lay broken..Politicians stroking
Humanity choking while solutions lay open
Complicate the simple take us off our path
Study patterns of History do the math
Yesterday's tomorrow is same as today
All a memory in the word of play
I feel the wrong..I feel the right
Living in the middle gives me sight
Beauty within tames the nature of the beast
Pretty words provide hope till we find our peace...
