Terraqueous
Joseph Boulet Jan 2013
As one world we can see
With forward looking eyes
All there is on the surface
Is water parted skies

On the edge all we feel
Not up, side or down
The universal sphere
Pulls us in, out and around

How chanced we are to live here
As one as true and whole
Connected to each other
With radio antennae poles

Slim area of orbit
Sweet edge of earthy skin
Whoa I lay on this dimension
Observe the universe I’m in

When one looks with eyes of hate
Upon the richness of this land
No longer is there sharing
No one lends a hand

The workings of the soul
Tempted twisted by our needs
A parasitic organism
Cares not for what it feeds

Everything that grows can feel
Everything that grows can heal
All we ever need believe is
None of our beliefs are real

Limited Senses
Joseph Boulet Jan 2011
There are more things in heaven and earth
Then are dreamt of in our philosophy
A birds wing is filled with mirth
But our star struck voids fate is entropy

Endless streams flow down crystal waterfalls
While clouds of hope ray up through space
A conscious thought echoes brightly off walls
Round earth reflects a light heavenly place.

Your minds eye sees from a five holed black box
A third can observe light from another dimension
A gateway to pleasure shut with five golden locks
Will you seep through the floor or achieve your ascension?
First two lines are from: Hamlet, Act 1. Scene V

Mentity
Joseph Boulet May 2010
Sitting on the grass
Mud is slipping at my feet
When the rain washes down
I will curl into the heat

Words writ on the stone
No one can read it again
Your hair covers my face
You’re blocking out my expression

All the wind in my ears
It’s getting hard just to breathe
When I wake in this world
Will you tell me to leave

No more lies on this day
I will tell you the truth
Come with me in my head
Run away, silly muse

I want to
I want to meet them all again
Waking up on the other side of the bed

Patience is honest when you never can feel death
Time is a planet and you’re pushing me down dead
Cower over me and walk by
Walk by
Walk by
Walk away
Bye
Another one of my songs:

Red Carpet
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
It feels like there’s a carpet lined in front of me
A red carpet of destiny
Behind me another carpet vast
Of things I’ve gone through long since past

Sometimes when things don’t go your way
You got stuck and it ruined your day
But when the day is ending soon
You find yourself lucky until noon

You never notice when good things come
My life is horrible but it’s just begun
Maybe you don’t realize what you’re doing
It’s all written down but you think you’re losing

But maybe you don’t believe
Maybe you don’t like
The idea of someone
Writing your life

But sometimes you may feel
Like the world is against you
I believe it’s meant to be
What about you

Middle Name
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Knowing you once
Deprime of your life
Memories forever staying
Had no idea of perceptions you had
They said you were always a nice man
Took time and effort accomplishing what you could
The one I knew had purposely done in the easiest act to follow

How can I know so much
About you, I met just once
You seemed sad to me as a child
You were always hospitalized

You made her feel
Hiding in closed cupboards
Pictures of you on the wall
Faded glasses of charcoal gray
A faded out brown cotton couch

I wasn’t told when I was young
Kept me from feeling alone
Truth revealed like rain on car windows
The same gray room haunting my wide awake body

Forgotten you will always tread the halls
The food tasted stale but I heard you call
Broken mirrors on one open side
Hit the cue to pocket your wisdom
Old relics of parental appreciation
Some accomplishments done without hesitation

Where did you go
Saw you once you were gone
Why did you do it
Leave us all alone
How come I feel this way
Nothing has made me feel done
Who put you up to it
Why am I writing this song?
My grandfather committed suicide when I was young. I was named after him.

Gasping Laughter
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
I don’t want to speak my sorrows so weak
I just wish I could hear you I don’t want to fear you
Two points in a time warp, I am a dimension
Interrupted by laughter, heed my confession

haha you look not to me
haha a tumbling rock covers a ****
haha waterfalls suspend in time
haha the sound of your voice make want you be mine
to be mine

Squeeky breaths, you fall off a wall
If a petal let’s go it will fall
uproars 11 centimeters wide
How I wish, I wish
I can take you somewhere to hide
to hide

Read my mind
When i’m conscious I close my eyes
Fall away slowly, drift away
Sometimes I wonder if I’m blind
If I’m blind...
If I die...
To leave behind...
Please don’t lie
I will fly...
Actually one of my songs:

Social Destruction
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
The race must be won
The world must be destroyed
I forget who I was
Became obsessed

Your pointless observations
The words you misspell
Everything I listen to
Is the sound of a bell

When did you become like this
Superficially unaware
Wanted to be better than you
You just didn’t care

Have some sense
Appreciate night
In all of my life
Little made me believe
Everything is real
You are my conscience

Shades
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Shades
Being on my mind
Anytime
Apricot mist
Evergreen shade
Luminescent glasses
Have the world made
On my mind
All of the time
Silly face smirk
Amarillo sunset
Lily heals hurt
Rojo mojo kismet

For thinking in my heart
Ravens wings push down on water
Aiming with a dart
Flying fish do never falter

Cloudy shade
Protects my keep
Mind is made
Bah like sheep

Horizon view
Writing down your landscape
Sky/water blue
Turquoise powers are for your sake

Shield my eyes
Love me forever
Fearless skies
Cupid aims for never
“There are colours, then there are shades,
Then there’s shades of colours.”

You Look Away
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Your eyes so hollow
White as snow you stare away
Your goal is to follow
But keep my eyesight at bay

Your hands are soft as clouds
Gently sliding down the lake
Open my heart to your sounds
Keeping me outside the wake

Sunlight burns a hole in the ground
You are walking, you don’t come near
Maroon backgrounds excite the nerves
Seems to me like you have no fears

How can I find you when you are so distant
Who are you if I went inside your mind
How can I find you if you don’t know who I am

Tricolour landscapes
Turn around I want to show you
Secretly seeing
Everything you didn’t see before

Well how can I find you when I have no idea who you are
Your name speaks of sorrows you so expertly hide inside
Characters of future sins are yours to aspire
Don’t you want to come and talk to me?

Dark deep lunar settings is the place where we will meet
I want you to show me sweetly exactly where to place my feet
Step jump and a warm surrounding is what we will feel
Where have you been these past years finally I can heal

Long exposure
Soft enclosure

You turn your head toward me and I look away

Oppressive Moon
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
While you sleep
Hope you dream
Of me

Let me free
I am happy
Violently

Maybe you are meant to be in bed
With him going in your head
Your pillow is holding you up
We see the world blow up

Tight around the wrist
Thanks for not being a *****
Lovely sounds await you in your sleep
Bells ring at your dream, dream deep

My fantasy contrasts with your thoughts
I get the feeling we both feel lost
Inspires me to look outside
The moon is looking for a place to hide

That star you stare at every night
The planet you wish you could stand on
Is the same one I look upon to write
I can see your reflection

Two Lives
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Tie the anchor to the rope of my umbilical cord
Cut me out, throw me in, and forget your pirate sword
Race to the finish without a helmet on
One moment I hold your hand, the next you’re gone

Alligators creep out of my skin
And leap out with a sinister grin
Smoking trenches of orange peel trees
Nothing you live is all what it seems

In one night, I may travel the world
See the death of a soldier
And the life of a bird

In one night, I may float on the sea
Have a cup of this delectable tea
If you think, I am unable to conquer him
Give me the sword, I will defeat the dragon

One evening can be purchased
With a well thought out plan
Steal away all the riches
Run as fast as you can

If you thought I could cure your disease
I would sleep and you would drown in front of me
Is it true, my own thoughts are reality?
Living two lives is not what it used to be

(I am who I want to be)

Communication
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Haven’t I seen you before
Sitting on a branch
You were the moon and the stars
And you knew how to dance

I saw you on the snowflake
Dancing in the flowers
On the road you lay
Overcome by the showers

Haven’t I seen you before
You were in the balloon
You swam in the ocean
And you showed me the lagoon

The tornado swept me off my feet
And you were there
I saw your face so sweet
And your swirling hair

I was lost without you
And wanted to see you again
But the bright sunlight shone
And I was awake in my bed

“Haven’t I seen you before” he said
She replied, “No I don’t recall”
“ I could’ve sworn I’ve seen that face before”
She said “Only in your dreams…”

I'll Be Waiting
Joseph Boulet Feb 2010
Frolicking with you on white snow
I am a little boy yeah I know
Won’t you come to my house for cocoa

Come sleighing, we’ll go together
Don’t mind the chill of the weather
We’ll get lost in the sky forever

Walking by your side I am shy
Holding of your hand we walk by
Look into my eyes i don’t know why

Starlight, the morning is waning
My love for you is fading
Reflection on white snow is jading

I’ll be waiting

— The End —
