Have you ever thought to think,
Or ever think of what you thought,
Because somethings aren’t what you think,
And yet most things aren’t what you thought,
See the reality of thinking,
Is that you really think too much
Written on a rainy day in my car
Facing a broken mirrored image of myself
Pulled in the direction of love
Committed to doing everything right for love
Then love proved that I’m doing it wrong
Often convinced by love that its me
Then love proved that theory is false
Love yourself or nobody will.
One kiss from you
And my heart will
Skip a beat and one
Touch from you
And my heart smiles
So bright and one
Hug from you
Makes my life
Worthwhile and a
Smile from takes
My breath away
And I'm in love
With you every day.
I gave to you the color blue
I drew it from the sky
I picked the flowers of the field;
red roses, yellow daffodils.
I made a lovely palette
with the brightest color-swirl,
And painted you a picture
with the colors of the world.
For me, you took a rainy day,
you handed me the darkest grey,
but told me it was green

The
sun came
for it's flower

she blushes in
the heat
of the
moment

her
petals
rouge from
a salmons pink

her joy always returns
with dew drops
of the dawn
that pearls
in the valley
of the rising sun

she is lotus my river of love.
For my wife
My lotus
My river of love
I lay alone in a dark room
In my feelings
Feeling everything around me
Except needed or wanted
I’ve made so many tears
I don’t want to make anymore
Unless they’re falling from my own eyes
So as the thunder rolls in
Stating its presence here with me
The rain chimes in too
Tap dancing on my window
As I continue to lay alone
In a dark room
In my feelings
