An eerie sight seen from inside my room
The sun settling down in a dark reddish hue
I can’t seem to look away, I’m completely consumed
It’s as though blood is in the air, from my point of view
Quickening, and not a moment too soon
As the sun meets its death for the birth of the moon
Waves crash against the oceans shore
The sound as such, it leaves you wanting more
Powerful, not unlike a lions roar
That draws you in, too hard to ignore
We value it’s serenity, it’s beauty, and allure
It’s in our very nature, a connection to our core
It’s intriguing enough, that we feel we must explore
All that it contains, even what’s on the ocean floor
Forge ahead to the your golden years
Leave the past behind
Where trouble brews and paid dues
Get the best of you you’ll find
Do not dwell on past regrets
Make new experiences your fix
Where the magic is in your attitude
Not made up parlor tricks
Forgive and move on, to a life to call your own
If pathetic was the word used, at a time you felt alone
Do not be misguided
Instead, fulfill your dreams
Because the past can only  
bring you down
And drop you to yours knees
Resentment is the devils tool
To lead you far astray
Give in only to your latitude
And pray you find your way
At the brink, the turning point
Near the waters edge
Looking down on an unfulfilled life
The muck, the weeds, the dredge
Gathering up the courage
To step down off the ledge
A promise to thine own self
My vow, my word, my pledge
My thoughts are in the distance
I am humble, yet prepared
For an unexpected bounty
That I’ve been made aware
A beam of light, a shedded tear
Can make my woes all disappear
A cry for help, on stomach bare
Bounds overstepped, I do not dare
On eggshells now I walk in fear
For words are spoken with utmost care
Hands together for a moment shared
I breach the seal and breathe fresh air
Susie grew a rainbow
By pouring out her dreams
The water was quite essential
To grow the magic seeds
Greens, and reds, and yellows too
As well as her favorite color blue
All were present
All were there
For her to nurture
For her to share
Hearts on fire
Warm desires
Melting in the flames
Sending it out to you; my love
Hoping you feel the same
Arms wide opened
Words were spoken
Waiting to be obtained
Dropping down from high in the sky
Like passion in the rain
