You brush the hair
Out of my eyes and
Your soft fingertips
Leave a tingling trail
Across my forehead
like ecstasy,
But you can't brush my hair
Out of my eyes
Because that was how
He saw into my soul and
I closed that door
long ago.

You hold onto my hand
With everything intertwined
Our bodies, our minds
And I'm warm like
A child sleeping on your chest
close to your heart,
But you can't hold my hand
Or body, or mind
Because that was how
He stole me away and
I escaped once
but will never again.

You call me honey
And it rolls off your tongue,
Sweet and sticky
With a taste of promise
And it sounds like forever,
But you can't call me honey
Because that was his name
for me
And despite your intentions,
It burns through my memory
Like acid rain
And I've been hiding inside
For too long
to come out.

Dreams of me she
Does so I come

Hopes for peace
and so there is

Simple the world !

Of course

What were we thinking?

••

He was walking around with

HIS VOTE !

clutched close to his Heart

YEAH !

He gonna make some changes
Round here  



All you gals out there
Would really love him

But he got no money
So ya don't



Prisons prisons prisons

Our true home in the

Police state



Listen !

The 1000 names of god

Mingle with your own
Love like the sun
Loves the earth
Ever since they met
They dance every day

The sun makes the earth
Look on the brighter side
The earth gives the sun
A reason to wake up

Love like the earth
Loves the sun
Because the earth isn’t distracted
By the stars and the moon

the fire
was dancing
that night.
and i was
too.
i had liquid
courage
and a boy
to impress.
maybe
thats why
i ended up
in the back
of a truck
with this
unfamiliar
boy.
i guess he
was just looking
for the light
and
i was one with
the fire that night.
thats why,
in the end
we both
ended
up
burned.
... and my skin is begging to be touched,
by the shiny piece of metal,
that takes all the pain away.

Vision of the Perfect Dream

Come

Truth lingers

I've been here a million years

••

Look into my eyes

The very first day is there



I see you

You have a path from here to there

••

It could be --- all over
( the pain )

It could be here
( all you ever wanted )

••

Simple as it is
Simply as you are
but how do you hate someone that makes every particle in your body sing at the slightest glance?
