I feel the words I write mean less and less each day.
They blend together and confuse the reader,
Muddle the flow,
As each thought forms a current and pushes in its own direction.
And at this point...
I'm being torn apart.

Turn it around in the grass
it's summer, I'm getting' older
Sun's up hot who knows
If life does get better.
When will all my friends show up?
Today I'll stay level,
Just enjoy the normal,
No need for exceptional,
It's so flighty
And always flies away.
What destroys me,
is a part of me that exists
in the unknown-
the heart needs it, like blood
for it makes me feel alive

"You are like a train", they said
"you take us to places quickly
and show us beautiful sights to see
but sometimes,
you make us sick to the stomach"

How can I show you
that this is what Germany
Was like in '35?
Watching the polls is making me consider either moving to another country or starting a protest movement.
Music was his passion. Guitar his life.

So she went on to become a string of his guitar... The best cord producing the sweetest music ever.

Suddenly life happened.
Fate got her pressed, bruised.
Finally broken.

And then... He replaced the broken string for a new one.
I am like the wind
That blows in the ring
I am like the hand
That throws the punch
I am like the land
That feels the crunch
When indeed the snout
And the nose feel the bout
just because
it doesn't leave
a single line
doesn't mean
it's not a poem

just because
it doesn't rhyme
doesn't mean
you're not a poet

because a poem
is not merely
about the style
but solely
about the soul
