is we...
worth my identity
John Jordan Jan 2013
gave you my heart
on my finest silver platter
you played with it
then you watched it splatter
you'll never know
just how much it pained me so
you think you do
but you have no clue
well you live and you learn
you get what you earned
close that chapter another page turned
live and you learn
now my love's in an urn
cause when I thought I had love I just got burned
love and hate
now just seem like one in the same
my deliverance
is indifference
what can I do?
you took my pride and my sanity too
I learned you live
so you can
live and learn
and learn to give
the answers that you find
to the lost and the blind
as you were to led now you must lead
give the people what they need
because we need love

I believe it is time
to end the the confines
of the rhyme
free the word
free the verse
free the stanza
free the poem
free the poet
free my mind
free my soul
freedom baby Freedom!
Now where to go?
John Jordan Jan 2013
go ego go
you are not a part of me
prepare to face my humility
the immune system that is my conscious mind
is going come at you like a spider monkey all hyped up on mountain dew
no longer will I be the willing host
to a virus such as you!
your earth is about to crumble
because I am choosing humble
I choosing to let go of the self
so that others may shine
share all the glory
I used to claim as mine
so go ego go
and I hope know
you will not be missed
because a life without you
is a life beyond bliss

If love were a person who would be?
If love were a person  it wouldn't be me
went it come to love I know I have the capacity
but whenever I try I seem not to have the ability
I try and I try
and I cry and i cry
and when love doesn't find me I always wonder why
so maybe instead of waiting for love to come and find me
I should go out search for love from sea to sea
so I search from the Atlantic to the Pacific
and from the Indian to the Arctic
and what to I find?
that during my entire journey I've been completely blind
it was thoughts and my fears
of getting hurt and in tears
that clouded the love that was inside me for years
so know, my love will shine like a beacon,
it will shine so bright that it will never weaken
So if love were a person who would be?
If love were a person  it would be me

I fell in love with her persona
but not the person she really was
I fell in love with the idea
of her and I become us
but reality set in
and I was never going to win
the heart I truly desired
not because I was rejected
but because I had perfected
the persona of the girl I admired
