You're the sun that rise and lights my day
You're the moon that bright my nights
And the stars crown you in the sky
And I admire you and your beautiful eyes
And your perfect smile.
I'll write your name in the sand
I'll climb the highest mountain
I'll go up in the sky
Just to be close to you
Just to take hold of your hand

You're the flowers on the ground
You're the butterflies that fly around
And the colors of your wings, the pink and green combine
And the way you move with the wind looks so gentle soft and fine
It makes you look so free so perfect so divine.
Do you hear the drums?
Do you like the sound?
It's the song of my heart, as it beats and sings when I see you around
Sing with me, come and dance
Laugh with me, love me now
Take my hand, trust in me, I won't let you down
But I love you too much to tell you a lie
I must tell you... I'm going to die
But I want to spend my days with you, please don't let me down
Love me like I love you, I want you to be mine
I will be back I promise, just to see you one more time
So I'm telling you
This isn't a...Goodbye

Want to hold you so close
But I'm stuck, they say
Love one but not both
I cannot seem to love that way

I miss both of you with
so much intensity
how can you compare
two beautiful souls
two human beings?
Choose?
Why must I pick what feels wrong
Even though
It is what feels right?
Because the other feels just
as wrong.

Maybe I'll bury my head underwater
Try not to think
About decisions
As bubbles escape
from my nose.



Cannot settle on
Such shaky surfaces.
I'm
Such a slave
To my anger
And foolish pride
I'll die
A thousand times
Before I recognize
The life
I've wasted
All because
I need to stay
Above
Never a shoulder shrugged
More
Of a mean mug
Stare down
Before the final
Show down
Blow for blow
'Til the war
Is over
While I preach
And teach peace
Pieces of me
Fragmented
Because
I react
With tactical actions

                                            Frag grenades ! ! ! ! !

Painting
The Art of War
Beautifully
Ignorantly believing
That’s possible

How come
I cant teach
Someone
To be
All they can be
But I cant make
The best of me

Army's Armistice
Raising arms

Nuclear warfare
Clearly a fair war
When its
Warranted
Wanted
I'm warning ya!

Stand down...
The sounds
Of hollow point rounds
Piercing
A cops vest...

I'm not going no where!
Know where
The end is
Be patient!
The tip of this bullet
Will end this
Miscommunication

Explosive decisions
Pressing
The big red button
Dropping bombs
Over Bagdad

Bragging about it
To my comrades
Commemorated
With a badge
Of honor

Once the parade
In my name
Is over
I'll be forced
To face
The nightmares alone
Lone ranger
Growing stranger
With time
Untangle the rope
Time to let
My body dangle
Beneath
The noose
Untie these twisted
Thoughts

And just
Let loose!
Your skin glows
Like peach blossoms

As lovely as daffodils
In the purest hope of spring

My heart strings follow each strum of a harp
Your voice a hypnotic melody

I leap like a cricket
at the whisper of your name

The evening floats
On a great parrot wing

I am comforted
With you by my side

I hold you tight
Like two twilight beams across the sky

In the listless evening
I listen for the last chime of the day

I lye with you
In lavender moonlight

Hand-in-hand we reach our destiny
For a mystical shower of love
