The Poah Tree Forest
I've planted my seed
Patiently I wait to see what it will become
I hope it's great indeed
I hope I have a "green thumb"

I'd like to make my Poah Tree
As beautiful as yours are to me

So I'll revel in your beautiful foliage
Full of love and tears
Packed with joy and fears
Even those full angst and rage

They move me one and all
So let's grow this Forest big and tall :)

S.M.O.K.E.
Staring at the ceiling
Making smoke rings
Only you can send me reeling
Koffing up
Everything

Tear It Out
Do I tear it out
And wear it on my sleeve
Tear it out
And let you see

Seeing you is agonizing
Your feel haunts me
Poisoning my thoughts
You dominate my memory

Heart in my throat
I'm paralyzed
This is all rote

Darlin I'm weak
Nothing but a shell
The words I won't speak
I'll sit alone in my hell

Yes I'll stay away
Why should an angel
Lower her gaze

Do I tear it out
And end it all
Tear it out
To the ground to fall

No way to recompense
Without ground to stand on
In silence I'll persist

O.R.A.N.G.E.
Orange my other favorite
Really hard to find another
Another color that looks so right
Never had a druther
Greater yet when paired with P.U.R.P.L.E.
Even love you more than my mother

P.U.R.P.L.E.
Purple you are my favorite color
Un comparable is any other
Regard you as perfect
Please don't stop
Loving your Royal hue
Everyone to their knees should drop

A Series Of Of Faith
I've explored unfathomable depths
And soaring peaks
My love of reading has colored my views
It's hard to believe but I'm afraid of how you chose to speak
I'm a skeptic of the method you used

There it is all laid out
The reason I've slacked
When it comes to reading your word
I've been a lout

But I'm sure now like never before
Regardless of what they say
Every word in that book is yours

So I'll study them and learn
And trust in grace
To help me discern the way
Of finishing strong in this race

Epilogue
I feel a bit more lost
Each day I don't see your face
Not hearing your voice
I feel outta place

I wish I knew
Some magic word
To ease your mind
Take away your hurt

In my heart
You burrowed deep
I wanted nothing more
Than you safe to keep

You should never feel
Like you're second best
You're an awesome girl
Unique among the rest

I'm sorry a thousand times
That I didn't make this more clear
You're a precious soul
To me very dear

Signal Fires
I try not to speak words without flavor
When our speach is without substance
We practice and promote ill behavior

So learn to speak life
And maybe you can be a saviour

To someone going through rough times
Anything can be a saving grace
So make a rhyme
And lift someone's face

Help them see the glory in this life
To bolster their fight
Look past their strife

Set fire to the night
Light the way
Staying the knife

A series of faith
At peace I walk your creation
Unhurried and unafraid
Trusting the promise of the Son
Mine is everything you made

Though it demands my sweat
And I be a stranger of the land
Your covenant holds true
My needs are meet at the requirement of my hand

You reassure and calm my soul
After realizing your love and grace
I know what it is to be whole
And that will keep me till I see your face

Pharmaceutical Zombie
Show me how to live
To die another day
Living in this sickness
Thanks for the band aid

Don't push me your pills
My problems not your solution
My problem is you
Your whole evil evolution

Thanks for showing me how to live
To die a slower way
Please torture me with sickness
May I have another band aid

You've warped my perception
Made another slave
Medicated to complacency
I can never expect to be brave

Untitled
I'm not dead
Just screaming inside
I'm not dead
Just stuck in my mind

I'm sinking beneath the waves
The voices crashing round and round
Every time I come gasping up
I push me right back down

Gotta hold on
Remember the light
Gotta hold on and remember
The day divides the night

Our World's Lungs
Steel cuts and fire burns
Leaves us to choke on fumes
Nothing to be done
As we turn our heads

Ways of life and medicine
Gone up in smoke
Losing more than we know
Though most have no idea

The Mourning of The Trees
Where have they gone
Wherever could they be
The Children of the Forest
Have become lost in the city

Their laughs no longer echo through treetops
Children now draped in tee tops
Tuned in listening to that beat drop
Never stopping to wonder why they can't stop

So the trees remain quiet
Day after day the same
Waiting for a dreamer to awake
And the Forest to reclaim

To Sink Into Obscurity
I want to disappear
To sink into obscurity
Drown beneath the waves
Of all my insecurities

I'm riding high
I'm crashing low
This raging ocean
Outta control

Wake me up
I hate this nightmare
Wake me up
Is anyone out there

Can't escape this apathy
It's swallowed me complete
Can't go on much longer
Stranded at sea

Pull me from these dark tides
Rescue me from myself
I'm staring from inside
Slowly losing to this hell

Wake me up
Keep me from despair
Wake me up
Please make me care

— The End —
