Menial life
Going nowhere
Stays in on Sundays
Don't act your age
Forget what you are
Fall into that trap
Loose a friend
Recover
Love a man
He can't stand you
Overreact
Fall into a trap
Can't start over
Goes too fast
Lose it all
Everyone
Matter to no one
No one
Over the edge
Falling over an edge  
Alone
So alone
But Don't apologise
I wrote this nearly two years ago.
Forgot about it till now
february
saunters in

just like a breath
of fresh wind
cool to the taste
warm to the touch

february
month of love
For the boy who sleeps
In the early hours
Of the sun-soaked Earth
I'm sorry your mind kept you from dreaming

For the girl who cries
At the very sight
Of herself
I'm sorry your mind kept you from self love

For the child who wishes
For something more
Than a poverty striken
Sense of imagination
I'm sorry your mind kept you from reaching more

For you
The one who waits
For life to be more
To be better
I'm sorry your mind kept you from creating it
Is there peace,
Is there not?

This conflict must stop,
Please no more,

God I calling,
Calling you,
Calling me,

For us to stop,

We want equality,
Not anger,
Nor fighting,

Bring us peace,
Bring us hope,

As humans,
We come as one,
As brothers and sisters,

Stop this conflict,
Stop this conflict,

Life is too short,
Life is too short.
Give me your vulnerabilities, and I'll give you strength, give me your short temper, and I'll give it length, give me your doubts, and I'll give you assurance, lend me your pain, and I'll grant you endurance, give me your regrets, and I'll show that you made the right choice, give me your thoughts, and I'll supply you a voice, give me your dreams, and I'll show you ambition, tell me what you fail to comprehend, and I'll provide intuition, I just want all those things that you label as imperfections, so I can show you why they are not flaws but true blessings
Revised because the previous draft made no sense
I tried to navigate you clear of the rocks, but you insisted I stop, saying the collision has to happen, because a captain is not captain until he has went down with the ship, and at the time I did not understand what you meant by all it, I could not fathom how you could be so accepting of death, when you only begun to take your first steps, and breathe your first breath, then you begged me with tears in your eyes to abandon the vessel as you ready yourself to die, but I have been with you through the worst of times, so why would I choose now to leave your side? And so if this is how you want to go then together will ride.
