Every tree is sacred
Lending their shade,
No thanks required
I'll sing to the mountains
And I'll sing to the sea,
And I'll sing to the winds
And the adventure in me,

I'll sing to the clouds,
And I'll sing to the sky,
I'll sing to the sun,
When it shines too bright

I'm wandering, searching,
for knowledge, profound
From whence I came,
Were the foolish grounds,

So I sing, and I play,
And wander, far and wide
Gradually opening
The Mystic Eye
Take this crumpled heart
It only beats in your hands
Hold it, forever
A haiku.

We fall for people, who aren't there to catch us.
They make you jump off a cliff for them,
Promising to be there when you drop.
Eventually they forget their promises,
Give up not their commitments.
Instead they let you fall and leave you there,
With nothing but a bleeding soul and an aching heart.
Why do you make me feel this way?
Why do I smile with each word you say?
Why can't I get you out my head?
Why do I think of you as I lie here in bed?
Why is this happening again?
Why didn't I learn from the pain?
Why do I look forward to this so?
Why am I sad, when you have to go?

In the summer of 2012
I loved a girl with brown eyes
And an obsession with
Everything bad for her

How could I expect her to save me
If she couldn't save herself?

In the beginning of 2015
I met a girl with blonde hair
And her only obsession
Was love

She had already saved herself
And I was healing

If I do end up
Loving this blonde haired girl
I swear it will be different

I will not attach my feelings
To each word she speaks to me
I will love in full

She doesn't smoke
She doesn't drink
But we get high off
Each other's laughter
And we get drunk on
Each other's words

If I do end up
Loving this blonde haired girl
I swear our love will be raw

To the girl with brown eyes;
I needed alcohol to love you

To the girl with blonde hair
And eyes wide like the ocean;
I will love you
Unconditionally
