I came across
An inter\
Section.
I quest-ioned
What path to
T
A
K
E............... I had to choose
My soul or you,
For both of us
It did break.
If we question fate
We
Question
All
Meaning.
Things happen for a rea-
Son......... If we question, it only
Means we're human.
Though sometimes being
H
U
Man......
Can choose fates
Date with the
Pa-th-way-to-hell.
I wish our fate
Sometimes didint exist.

I wish
My fate was better than this.
Hello love, I heard about you?
About the power you contains to make others cherish you.

You been sung about.
You been written about and of course talked about.

You been define to plenty and affected many.

Those in love with you loves it.
Those searching for you seem afraid cause you have been torn apart by others.
Described, as nothing but trouble.
To them, what's the bother.

So hello love.
Keep pulling them into your grasp.
Cause a world without love isn't important.

My eyes cover you
      With a warm rain
Of stares,
     The morning comes
Like a singing spiral,
      Your body of foliage
Opens like a meadow
    As you arise from bed.
The gilded light
    Sifts through your blouse
And your body burns
    Through the silhouette.
Coffee,
          The vertical hour awake,
Your laughter is everywhere,
      I take your hips of light
And make love at the cliff
     Of the day......

you must have conversed with god
that blue like a summer sky with forever behind lighting it
the rose cheeks of a garden full of worlds red roses
on your smile the bright white of summer's
Daisies beautiful dancing in dancing out of view
that green what a sight over my fence does grow greener
as you alight on my metaphorical distance
can you light as well as colored  rainbows smiled
with me and the trees bowed when
on the distant horizon
you made a way
into being like
a painting by
God

Major Tom's a spaceman.
Wing walker.
Space suit.
Mr Fix it.
Out in space.
Station without passing trains.
No sign of tracks.
Earth is dashing.
Flying past.
A blast in space.
Not lost in space.
No flowers or orchestral manoeuvres.
Just dancing in the dark.

Don’t settle—
Whatever you do
don’t settle with it is too late now,
it will fill you with regret
and leave you frozen in fear.
We all want change
whether it lies within ourselves
or those around us yet cannot accept
the fact we all strive for a change
that varies from  person to person—
So naturally the eyes of one
differ from another.

We all seek ways to be great
yet cannot work around the problems
that arise when fear arrives—
We all give in to
the fear of what others think,
the fear of what others do,
the fear of failure,
the fear of the unknown,
and the fear of every second yet to be lived.
But don’t settle—
Whatever you do
don’t settle with it is too late now
it will fill you with regret
and leave you frozen in fear.

I cry missing you, too, you know.
I never know how
To tell you.
Because it is always when you're
Happy
And I just
Can't
Ruin it.
It's when you're out somewhere laughing
And I wait for you to come back
That I feel how far away you are.
Or days
Just days when I am alone and silent
And maybe I just don't feel you through your words
Like I usually can.
And eventually I can't do it anymore
And I sit down
Head in hands
And cry because I can't touch you
Because I can't look at you.
It breaks my heart in a new way
One I've never felt before
And have never grown strong against.
My only real strength is in anger, and
There can be no anger in it
Because you are still mine, and I yours.
There is nothing to be strong against, just the waiting, and some days I can't bury it deep enough
And tears well up.
I miss your skin.
I miss your eyes and your soft hair.
I miss your voice in my ear.
I miss holding your hand.
And I don't hide it from you,
Far from, I tell you every day as you tell me.
But this...
This sadness.
I don't want it.
It cloys at me.
And I don't want it
Cloying at you.
And so sometimes I still sit in it and cry
Because you aren't angry with me
And you love me
And you speak to me every day
And you're the most wonderful person
I've ever met
And you're
So far
Away.
