Fight for those you love even if your inside
breaks into pieces.
Fight even if your heart does not
command it.
Fight for the woman your love surrounds and
stay with her even if it kills you.
Love is like a wild flower.
It grows where is at least expected
and appears with different colour and shape
to each one of us.
Love can survive under really difficult circumstances but
will die if it's placed in a cage.
Love is when you're happy with her joy,
when you always care of how she feels,
what she wants,
what she afraid of,
what she dreams of.
Every single moment...

Answer me
I didn't ask the question but answer me
And God do I wish you'd ask the same from me
I would tune every string out of your name
I would play nothing but your heart beat
I would call *goodnight
and have you visit in my sleep
We would only talk in pictures we took because they'd make better sense than actual talk
The words would taste better on my lips for when you want to taste them
My scent would remind the whole world that I'm yours
And the trail of my nails upon your neck would remind you that you're mine
Everything would be so different if you would only ask the question
But I don't know if it would go the same way *if I do
You're everywhere, man.
I just can't get away.
There when I'm sleeping ,
and at the break of every day.
Hanging in my time,
matching every word I say.
You're everywhere, man.
I just can't get away.

You're everywhere, man.
please just go away.
Take your hand of my wallet!
Get You're you out of my way.
Scrounging a living from
my worth each day.
You're everywhere, man.
please just go away.

When I'm shaving you're
hand is holding the razor steady.
While watching TV you give
me a running commentary.
While Looking in the mirror,
you look on bitterly.
Is there something wrong,
am I not worthy?

You're everywhere, man.
I just can't get away.
In my clothes and shoes,
using the same brands as I use.
Sharing my breath and heart beat too,
I'll curse each day I'm with you.
But I just can't get away.
We are I, yes  that's true.
But I don't want any part of you.
You're everywhere, man.
It just won't do.
You're everywhere, man
I don't want any part of you.

Focusing More.

Like a flashlight slicing through fog
a state of surrender
slashes most separation logistics
and reconnects.

Life situations can be unassailable
within non-resistance
which heals as it mends frailty
and opens perception.

Nature teaches how to unfold one
small change at a time
by actively focusing more on
momentary present.

Look at frail petals waving boldly
despite ice or heat
opposing bud-burst in stony
bed of unkind inclemence.

Dissatisfaction will begin to die
knowing with patience
at base that relationships find
a taste for contentment.
