Mr E - Hello Poetry

As long as I have my things
The world is fine with me
As long as I have what I need to be happy
The world is fine with me
As long as I don't suffer in any way
The world is fine with me
But take those things away from ME
And then we have a problem

-Think differently about the world around you.

Scramble Damble Doo

Have you heard?
Have you heard?
Of the land of Scramble Doo?
It's a place of pure joy in
Scramble Damble Doo
I tell ye the truth
Of this land not faraway
I journey through it en mass
Each passing day!
Call it Damble Doo Scramble
Or Doo Scramble Damble
Or anything you want! They were but example
But don't let anyone tell you how to unscramble your own place of joy
For Scramble Damble Doo lies in every girl and boy!

Find your joy and keep it close!

The Gift

Ages ago, too many to count
A gift was gladly received
Time had no bearing and my body trudged on
Despite how much I did bleed
I lived through the wars
The trifles of man
Saw many perish as this gift decreed
My tears had run dry
From unfailing eyes
For those who called on death in need
I dream every night I will die as I sleep
And be taken to the clouds high above
For I can't bear another day
When I sadly say
I could not save the ones who I loved

To Be Human

To be human
Is to be broken
Shattered, with all sorts of parts
But those broken parts
(Fitted back together)
Make us, who we are

Feelings for You

You're chestnut eyes catch the color of perfection
A smile that melts any heart
Though many may look at what you have on the outside
I simply love you for who you are
When you laugh I laugh as well
Even if I didn't hear what had been said
It's contagious and harmonious to my ears
A sweet lullaby inside my head
The silk you call hair falls graciously around
That masterpiece you call a face
All I ever see is a blinding work of art
And saddened by the absence of its grace
I often find myself at a loss of words
Whenever I attempt to say a thing
But to think I have your attention for a second
Is a triumph of each and every day
I may not have everything you want, but trust me
If you gave me a chance
I would be there when you fell
And gladly offer you my hand
I'm not in it for the action
I'm in it to know you are mine
As selfish as that may seem
I will love you forever
I will love you till the end of time

Peaceful Slumber

I awoke in a field of pure gold
Swaying in the breeze
The sun shined upon my breast
And warmed the earth around me
Laying in a field, of sweet serenity
I wished I had not woken up
For that dream was good to me.

I am I , You are You

Traveling down the narrow road
Knowing not where it will go
Through this maze of life, one may throw
His best. foot. forward.
Moments sewn into the quilt of time
One may ask if it's a crime
To be ourselves for a change
And travel down our separate ways
Into the end of time.
