"Every step closer to the star
Leaves one step further from the earth"
Mundane

"I want to be a star
Brighter than day"
Just plain

"I want the world to know of me,
about me, who is me"
My name

"But no one would know of the risk you take
Or the sacrifices you make"
Just pain

Heart and mind
Same setting
Same play
Same audition
Who wins the role?

One more word and I just might say
Yes she is gorgeous, but you left another in dismay
She laughs she smiles, cries
Craves salads or fries
She is mundane and proud
Proudly insane and loud
She may say she does not care
But caring if the people stare
Words cut her wrist
Resisting assist
But no she is so strong
Strong, maybe wrong

Wrongly right
Rightly kind
very judged
Judging blind
She is just another girl
But one of a kind
Don't let them tell you are not
They must be out of their mind

Strawberry lips
Words never sounded so sweet
Everyone likes strawberries though
I don't believe

Warm skin
The cold never seemed so distant
Nobody likes being cold though
The feeling is instant

Smiling eyes
Outshining all frowns
Nobody likes tears
You could put a woman down

Gentle soul
Intimidation something one could not see
Everyone loves a kind heart
Everyone would be better than me

I kept running and running
Darkness embraced
Too much space
Out of place

I see no light, nothing
Weak in the knees
Heart on freeze
Look to the steez

But now I realize, the stars touched my mind
How about you just do you, and I will do me
And hope some day the cold and heat
will shape our puzzle pieces
to Another
Maybe we will fit a fit that we didnt just give each other

So I look high and proud, dignity
Love will never fade
We may come astray
You with me, always.

I walk on, I see
Just looking down at the world
Contemplatively

Your eyes say it all
The agony in your face
Do not smile at me

Hypocrisy
Not anonymously
I know you are aware of the expectancy
To change
You complain
Get off of me
Me? oh I try to be
But you are a part of me
Me? who I?
I started to be
Until the game changed
What you started
You see
You? Yes you
Who else would I talk to?
Me, who am I?
I am you
You are me
We went from we
To
w      e
to
me
Just me

I am all me
Down to the T
Down to the jeans
Down to my feet

    Down to my shoes
    My laces
    My soles

    Down to the blues
    The traces
    In my soul

Nothing else makes me happy
Nothing I would rather be
I like being me
Down to the T

You know, it isnt easy
Working young
Feeding a family of 3
Only 18
Only 7.25

You know, it's hard
Working 2 jobs
Never seeing that family of 3
1 Brother
1 Mom

You know, it's life
Working until you die
Until your family is 0
100 hopes
100 dreams

I reach up, smiling
If only my dad could see me trying

Each bright as day, only shows at night
If only he could have helped my wings take flight

Reaching for the stars
I'm way past mars

My rocket, a solo pilot
You can learn to reach out too son,

Try it.

I am a moth
You are the light
You attract me
To you I fly

I reach you
You are so bright
I burn
To you I cry

I seek others
You won't fight
Your light dims
To you

Goodbye

The pale moon smiling down
The trees dancing tango with the wind
The icy ground biting my back
The shivers whispering for me to open my eyes
Love is a cruel thing
It makes the darkness seem so inviting
The night, enveloping day
The curio of how people thrive
Given the hurt that touches everyone's heart
Love is so mundane
The night wraps me up
Being my gauze
Preventing the blood from hugging the ground
Too much untimely beauty in the portrait of the world
For death to invite me so.

How dare you?
You are a slow killer
The pesticide, to me, the butterfly
I flutter around freely in the wind
I soak up a drop of your honey
And your hidden poison takes control
The worst part?
You know you are doing it
You know it is happening
You know you cannot do anything
But yet you do not acknowledge it
Me
You are sweet honey poison
The suffering never felt so so amazing
So cruel
What do I do?
I do what I can do
Do you do what you can do?
No, you do nothing
Just sit
Let me chose
Chosing the wisest is always the most difficult
But the wise follow their hearts
Hearting what hurts us
Human correct?
On track you take me
Me, the butterfly
You hold me
Tell me sweet words
And then let the train run through me
The course of your honey poison
I loathe the pleasure so
So I say to you my dearest
*******.

Sun is on my side
The moon around the corner
My two bestfriends, fight

I bear you my fruit
My ravishing greens
Deep down to the core
I am warm for thee
But why Have you forsaken me?

You **** me dry
Cut down my trees
You seek to "Protect" me
And yet all you do is destroy
Never hear my cries, thoust not see?

"Not suppose to love him
He is mine
Not suppose to smile at him
He is mine
Not suppose to look at him
He is mine"
"Do not claim him,
He is his own
Do not speak for him,
He is his own
Do not live for him,
He is has his own"

Isnt it amazing?
How every single face you come across
Leaves a little cut on your heart
Some bigger than others
For every cousin and every stranger
For every Lover and every danger
They say we meet 100,000 different people
Within the first 12 years
How much can the heart bleed?
How much can it take?
Time heals all
Well I say time kills all
Time gives all
Time takes all
And once our bodies
are but a scent in the wind
All we really are
Is just scars on mother earth
Just scars on others' hearts

Walk, walk, walking, step, step, pace pace
Shoes wear down, I'm wearing my shoes.
Soles are all gone, those soles of my soul I sold to the devil for love.
Love to hate, hate to love.
The circle
The shape of my heart, my heart hurts
No pain
Paint the window pane with a picture so familiar just to hide the unfamiliar
Faces
Face the reality, they think
Thinking wrong.

TV isn't a reality, the news isn't real, new news is never news.
Just **** i already knew.
I knew we should have handed the gift  to give a gift of hope
For the best
Hoping for the world, a chance to rest
Hoping for peace
Hoping for more hope to hope the things that need the most hope
Hope, for a new pair of shoes

No key to this lock
Only a thief could reach it
Lock picks are not cheap

What good is a seed?
If not planted in fertile soil?
With no days of rain?
To quench the thirst
With no days of sun?
To quench the thirst

What good is a seed?
When sowed in the fabric of other seeds
Where the soil is not fertile
Where there are no days of rain
Still thirsty
With no days of sun
Still thirsty

What good is a seed?
When it cannot grow?

I want to go where I free
Where I can sing
Where it is only me
Where there's no caring

I want to go where I can ride
The road never ending
Neither the sky
Endless clouds, Day and night

I want to go where I can feel the soft breeze
As it paints a picture better than reality

I want to laugh, cry, smile and breathe
I want to go to that place without worry

I want to go to that place, where you will be

"Just a little further"
Pushes the little bird
A rock on a single feather
"I will help you, its my word"

He pushes and pushes
Day and night
Through winter, spring and summer
Until the leaves take flight

Sigh Goes the little bird
"You are stuck and I try and try
I will never give up
Not until you die"

The little bird calls on his friends
They all say "No use"
The little bird is too scared to see
The little dead truth

Winter is near
Will you hold me my dear?
Or will you hold another
The answer is yes, I fear

Winter is close
Will you wipe nose?
Or will you just tell me to get medicine
Not a care if I overdose

Winter is cold
Will you tell me what's untold?
Or will you stare in silence
I pray you are bold

Winter will be gone
Will you be thankful it is done?
Or be thankful I was by your side
Only you, not anyone

Else, my dear
Will you smile one more time?
When I say "Come here"
Please tell me you are mine

It drops down from the sky
Into the river of life
All the time passed by
Until the turn of the knife
Reaching the ocean of death
Oh how grand and true
There, the last moment of breath
Until evaporated the soul, a new

I think the scariest part about loving someone
Is not knowing if they will stay, or be lost
And knowing either must happen
Not knowing the cost

Knowing that they will move on, happily, without you
Knowing they will love another, more than you
Knowing they will be scared of losing or keeping someone
That someone being other than you

I thought love was what I feared
What sent chills down my spine
But really its knowledge
The sweet ******* that is unfortunately, untimely and
Mine

Life throws me a grenade
A lemon if you will
The sourest it could find
I like sour, but still

At some point I need sugar
But the effort is not but strife
So my only option is
To throw the lemon back at life

A smile
A message
A call
I try

You frown
You read
You ignore
I cry

I leave
You beg
I return
Why?

Yes, could it be so?
I overcame darkness
Ready for the show?
