I explain my metaphors with metaphors
I don't know how else to express
My thoughts that sit in clutter drawers
And leave my mind a mess

If you don't understand my comparison
I'll just say it in a different way
My thoughts still shielded by a garrison
Suppressing things I need to say
I have this friend across the pond
As bright as clear-night stars
Intelligent and talented
And faster than souped up cars

But she has her flaws, alas
As all the best poets do
I know this to be a fact, of course
Who hasn't got one or two?

After all, it has to be said
Perfection is lack of character to me
So I'm keeping my eye on my talented friend
And watch as her mind flies free

A river is aware
of its course...
wise to the ways
of water.
~Jai Ma~
now you are gone from my messages
And no matter if your memory still
terrorizes me, the taste I caught of what
I thought was love , bitter as hell when
I finally realized it was lies, and it was
my dreams only, it all was built on me
lying to myself, letting all the signals
the warning signs just pass without
fully seeing, it was hope, my hope
only , let your words pass by
without realizing you are were not
truthful and had only your dreams
in your eyes, I blame me myself and I.

I am who I am
Because I met you

Because I met you
I have changed
For the better
