you can't blind the eyes
of my inner child
my heart will stay wild
no matter how many broken hearts
and broken bones
this mean world throws at me
because i got the love in me
that has the power
to change this world
if only i knew how to share it right
but i get caught up in romance
and the heat of the night
and it takes up all the love in me
cause then i give all exclusively
and all i am doing is limiting
my capacity for experience
and all i am doing is limiting
my capacity for love
by only sharing it with one

I know no other way to live than in love.

I know no other way to feel than with passion.

I know no other way to give than unconditionally.

I know no other way to see than with understanding.

I know no other way to speak than in honesty.

I know no other way to think than mindfully.

I know no other way to move than with grace.

I know no other way to learn than through embracing.

I have no other way to listen than with compassion.

I have no other way to lust than loyally.

I know no other way to love than endlessly.

I know no other way to touch than tenderly.

all i have now
are cold sheets
& a half empty bed
with half empty tea mugs
littering the floor
like land mines
surrounding my mattress
that now feels more like
a life raft
then anything els
a life raft that i jumped into
to espcape the war zone
that had now become my life
this matress
is the only thing keeping me
from drowning into my sadness
from falling into the madness

all i have now
are the cries of dogs
late at night
are the cries of my heart
late at night
like the saddest song
you've ever heard
because they don't understand
why the love was lost
how can you loose something
that was once everything
and they try to out cry one another
until they are both too exhuasted
to do anything but sleep

all i have now
are the the painful memories
and broken dreams
of everything we use to be
to remind me of how quickly we fell
how blindly we flew
and how badly we failed
all i have are songs
that i can never play again
because visions of you
will play in my head
and i'll need to drink enough liqour
too drown it all out
hand me that whiskey
i need to pass out
now how many times
will i take this foolish leap
before i finally get tired
of the blood on my teeth

to the lost & tortured souls
the misunderstood
the brilliant
the creative
the brave
the lost
the drunk
the passionate
the bukowski's
the keruacs's
the rumi's
the hopeless
the romantics
the artists
the poets
the music makers
the wanderers
the fighters
the feelers
you are the ones
living life through the expression of art
you are the ones
keeping the fire of human experience alive
so keep you eyes to the sky
and your feet to the earth
your heart on your sleeve
& don't forget what you're worth

if you wanna see more love in the world,
be love.
if you wanna see more compassion in the world,
be compassion.
if you wanna see more kindness in the world,
be kindness.
if you wanna see more mindfulness in the world,
be mindful.

be the change you want so see in the world

hey brown eyes,
why don't you hop inside
and we can take a ride
to where the dreamers jive.

to weird to live, too rare to die.

we deconstruct
then reconstruct
we deconstruct
then reconstruct
we deconstruct
then reconstruct
we deconstruct
then reconstruct
and it's so hard to tell
if this is heaven or hell
if i am weaker or stronger
if time is shorter or longer
with every choice that I make
the choice then will make me
am i chained or am i free
do i live for you
or do i live for me

my love is cursed.
my heart is the worst.

a love so deep nobody could ever understand.
and a heart so big that I can barely stand.

and one day i know i'll be crushed by it all.
and one day i know it will be my downfall.

cause there's not enough room for anything els.
and it seems along the way i've forgotten myself.

swallowed up my need to constantly give.
cause in my head & my heart,
it's the reason i live.

i had you
but i lost you
i had you
but i tossed you
i had you
but i fought you
and for what
for what
tell me what's the point
if when you find something real
you don't know how to deal
your just scared of how you feel
so you run for you life
and miss out on the chance
to be with this person
in a whirlwind romance
and you'll always think back
to the one that got away
to your foolish mistake
it will keep you awake
if you only had the heart
if you only had the means
to follow your bliss
to pursue your dreams
but that ship has sailed
the anchors pulled in
and maybe one day
you'll cross paths again
and maybe the next time
you will have the guts
to just take the leap
no if's, and's or but's
and now your staring at him
with someone els in your head
he'll never be him
and you'd rather be dead
then to keep on living
a life that's a lie
but it's all your fault
your decisions are why
you're here in the first place
with the wrong man for you
when you once had the right one
and what did you do
you gave it all up
when the going got tough
and he was the only one
who made you feel like enough
just as you are
he saw what most don't see
he took it all in
he let it all bleed
he was my soul mate
he was my best friend
and nobody's come close
to ever understand
the way that i think
and the way that i feel
and i don't think i'll ever
find something so real
so all i can do
is stay here and deal
and just do my best
to move on and heal
i had you
but i lost you
i had you
but i tossed you
i had you
but i fought you
and for what
for what?!

see more.
breathe more.
take a leave more.
read more.
write more.
drop the strife more.
sing more.
dance more.
take a chance more.
do more.
play more.
seize the day more.
say more.
hear more.
hold someone near more.
love more.
give more.
cause we all gotta live more.

Crimson *****
You aren't of this world
With your purity and goodness
Backed with the passion & heart of a warrior
A warrior that dances to battle
That's dances to the sweet nothings that love whispers
That knows all the words to your favorite song
To our song
To the song of you
The one my ears we're formed to hear
& There you are
Illuminated
By the suns rays
Spotlighted
In the most beautiful of ways
& I can see all the colours of nature
Playing off your face
All the colours of beauty, in you
And I want to be painted by all of it
By all of you
So let's paint this whole town red
With glory and love
And they can all wake up to a city
Marked by a crimson *****
Touched by the hands of graceful passion
Of somebody who was burnt before
But bares no fear to be burned once more
Not when in the name of love
In the name of all things good
And real
And her
She would stand there flaming
And dancing still
Like the most tragically beautiful
Yet inspiring reckless thing you've ever seen
Lighting the way for me
For us all
I move closer
I need to feel her heat
I need to jump inside her fire
And let everything els just burn away
Until we are left there naked
No hands to hold
Just soul in soul
With everything anyone ever wanted
Realizing that you must let go of everything
In order to gain it all
& Now nothing can stop your flight of freedom
No flesh or bones
Could hold these spirits now

if your heart is hurting
give it to me
and i will carry it
with hands of love
and tenderness
until it is no longer sore

if your soul is lost
then let me find it
i will illuminate it
with my love
and the courage i have
to unceasingly give it

if your feet are tired
from running
rest here with me
and i will soothe you
with my love
and gentle kisses

if your mind is gone
from thinking
then let me fill it
with warm thoughts
and poetry
about the effects
of your ever-changing beauty

i will reach into the darkness
and pull you out
i'll make a home in your heart
and chase your demons out
i will sing you love songs
louder then the voices in your head
and you'll forget what it feels like
to wish you were dead

you look like the sunrise
salt water in your eyes
you move like ocean tides
rushing in and out of my mind
washing away
other thoughts in your wake
until i can see nothing
but your beautiful face
and here in your wake
i find myself a boundless child
dancing under an infinite sky
with sun in my dress
flowers in my hair
and sugar in my smile
i'm a flower grown wild
and bathed in love

please don't tell me
how to feel
I'm tryin my hardest
to keep it real
please don't tell me
who I can love
what gives you the notion
that you are above
let me love,
& let me live
let me give
all that I have to give
I wanna learn
all that there is
I wanna dance
in natures winds
If I don't fall fast
then I don't fall
I want a whirlwind of life
Or nothing at all
I don't wanna be bland
I wanna dress for the ball
Have a blast
Make things last
Wear my life proud and tall
And my heart on my sleeve
Always waiting to be taken
Because life's for takin chances
And here it is in the making

you knew that the heart
in this anxious chest
was made of glass
protected by a rib cage
that was made of twigs & sticks
but you still threw rocks at it
and now you are
the stained & shattered pieces
that was once my beating heart
and i hold on to you
even though you cut right through
even though i'm drowning
in my own blood
the blood of a **** fool
choking on my own tears
suffocated by my worst fears
& all i can taste is regret
and hate
and regret
and pain
and regret
it's all so bitter on my tounge
that is now crowded in my mouth
because i still haven't been able to swallow
the last words you yelled out
before you took your leave
that this wasn't meant to be
that i'm not what you need
i just can't choke them down
because a moment ago
i was your everything
i was the songs you sing
the one to wear your ring
and now you're telling me
that this pain i feel
isn't something that's real
that this heart break
that's making my head ache
was what was ment to be
was our real destiny
but how the **** can that be
somehow i gotta stop this pain
blackout these memories
cause they're all that remains
i gotta pick up the pieces
and get out my glue
put my heart back together
and get the hell over you

one day your gonna look at someone
and in one beautifully
breathtaking moment
all the other painful moments
moments of confusion
of heart break
of destruction
and unraveling
with everyone els
will suddenly make sense
will suddenly have reason
and you won't even see it coming
all those moments of defeat
and despair
were preparing you
were leading you
towards this day
and this face
staring back at me
like i'm the sun
because i'm the one
& all those moments
were just prolonging
the inevitable moment
where you i
finally collide
and lock eyes
and realize
that everyone els
was just a lesson
a detour
a stepping stone
to a real home
to a real adventure
to a real love
where we can live
in our prime light
bathed in lime light
as ever-changing
enigmas of love
and passion
and exploration
no fear is found
no judgments sound
it's just you and i
& the answers to life
living like gods
& loving unconditionally
with effortless simplicity
wrapped up in fate's mystery

why do you insist on breaking my heart...
i've been there for you, right from the start.
i did what i thought was best for you,
and this what you wanna put me through?
i changed alot, to be who you need.
but you had no interest in changing for me.
i tried so hard to give you my best.
but it wasn't enough, you put me to the test.
my love is something i don't wanna hide,
but you always made me keep it inside.
and all i wanted was to scream to the world,
that you were my guy, and i was your girl.
but i was made to feel like i was a shame,
and after a while, it felt like a game.
it felt like a game that i was loosing,
and through it all, my heart was bruising.
and when i asked for a little more,
you directed me towards the door.
so eventually i had to break,
cause there's only so much i can take.
and what els is there left for a girl to think,
except inevitably, we were going to sink.
and now your making me feel like ****,
well **** that noise, i'm done with this.

people arrive in our lives
like lightening bolts from the sky
striking us as they ride
shooting sparks up our spine
they're electrifying
make you feel like your flying
they're all that you want
but your so scared of trying
cause your hearts still in hiding
from the last time it stormed
it was left in cold
but it wants to be warm
and there's a light in his eyes
that just comes alive
when they meet up with mine
and i could probably just die
right where i am
right in his grace
and the last thing i'll see
is that magnificent face
and that would be okay
but it scares me to think
that i'm falling so fast
can you pour me a drink
now i know it may seem
i'm all over the place
but i can't process life
when my heart starts to race
and i can't dance my best
when my knees start to shake
but i want to impress you
cause your heart i must take
and i can't help but wonder
if you care just as much
do you get hot & bothered
at the feel of my touch
do you think it is risky
if i finish this whiskey
i might stay the whole night
tryin to get you to kiss me
do you know that i want
to give you the world
and all i ask in return
is that you make me your girl
as the hours do thin
my bravery does thicken
me palms become moist
my sentences quicken
i've been watching you now
for just long enough
to gather the courage
to show you my love
and i hope you don't run
cause i'm finally dry
from the last lightening storm
and the tears that i cried.

there will be someone
at some point
who's brought into your life
and in an instant
everything changes
there will be no time to think
to process or understand
the only thing you will know
is how you feel
and how you feel
will be fucken great
dangerously great
the kinda great that really hurts
when it's not there anymore
the kind great you would climb mountains for
just to see their breath-taking view
and the moment before you meet
everything will be whirl-winding
but once they're there
everything will fall into place
you will feel an irreplaceable feeling
of peace and tranquility
of being found
not knowing you were even lost
until the moment that they saw you
of being home
not knowing you had ever left
until the moment that you saw them
& it may happen outta no where
but there will be no denying it when it does
this person will take you the places you've never been
tell you all the things you wished to hear
know exactly what to do
to squash your doubts or fears
they will attract you
as if there were magnets
in both of your souls
that only attract to each other
and nobody els could see
or a language for our hearts
that nobody els could speak
whatever it may be
once you know they exist
your life as you know it
will cease to exist
suddenly, the only life you will see
is a life with them in it
and anytime their love is lacking
so will your life be
and it will be the worst and best thing
that you will ever come to know or feel
but knowing that something like that can exists
is what makes living so exciting & real

kiss me under the stars
we will hold tight
in the moon's light

kiss me under the sheets
in the morning time
bathed in sunrise

kiss me under the trees
as the leaves fall
and my breath stalls

kiss me under city lights
as the world cheers
we are born here

I think the moment I met you
Time stopped
I forgot how to think
How to breathe
How to move
All I could feel
Was you
And your presence
And the way you looked
And the way you sounded
And the way you moved
& It was all I could do
To hold myself back
From also seeing how you taste
I think the moment I met you
My heart beat full speed
I forgot where I was
Where I'd been
Where I was going
All that I knew
Is where I had to be
Closer to you
And your smile
And your energy
And your world
& It was all I could do
To hold myself back
From asking you to be apart of it
To be the start of it
And the middle
And the end
Cause I could not settle for friends
I need to hear, to see, to feel, to know
How far and this could go
& Whatever els I was doing can wait
Cause it seem i have a date with fate.

am i headed where i need to be?
so much feelings of uncertainty..
i just don't want to get hurt you see,
all these feelings bursting forth from me.
but how do i know?
if this is where i should go?
should i take it real slow..
or just go with the flow.
maybe i should let it be,
and just wait to see..
cause if it were up to me (preferably),
i'd like to avoid catastrophe.
but my heart's beating too fast for me,
to hear the words it has to speak.
so here i go, into the unknown,
looking for the one, to call my own.

you are now the poetry
that spills from my pen
you are now the flame
burning from within
you are now the sparkle
dancing in my eyes
you are now the thoughts
floating through my mind
and i want you close to me
i wanna see what we could be
i want to see your every side
i wanna see inside your mind
i wanna be your special flower
the flower of your every hour
and i hope that takes to heart
cause we could be a work of art

There's a hole in my heart
You know, the one you left there..
And it's eating anything that gets close
It devours, it grows
& eventually, it'll eat us whole

There's a hole in my heart
That you helped me carve
And it's at war with my soul
Over possession of my body
It wants to take me,
& take me alive.

There's a hole in my heart
That was once filled with fairy tales endings and recklessly constructed dreams
That's a reminder to me
That nothing is as it seems
And real life is filled with villains
And my only hope for a hero, is me.

there's always that someone.
that your heart speeds for,
since the first time you saw them.
there's just something in their smile,
that makes you wanna go that extra mile.
there's just something in their eyes,
that makes you feel bubbly & alive.
that makes you wanna take care of them forever.
that makes you powerless to their sultry ways.
this is the someone who will make you.
this is the someone who will break you.
and we can't control this destiny,
it's unrestricted chemistry.
as it fiercely lights our hearts,
and a romance starts to spark.

**** this
**** that
**** her
**** him
i just can't believe
i'm back here again
watching you leave
without a trace
swallowing tears
rollin down my sad face
**** this
**** that
**** her
**** him
i can't believe
i fell for it again
the charm and the lies
it was all a disguise
i feel like a joke
when i once was a prize
**** this
**** that
**** him
**** her
this is not the love
i know i deserve
i just feel like the worst
and i can't understand
why's it so fucken hard
to find a real man
**** this
**** that
**** him
**** her
do you take pride
in the ones that you hurt
do you feel high
when others feel low
when your being a ****
and ******* your hoes
**** this
**** that
*******
**** me
how can i be so blind
and unable to see
the truth of it all
that's it's not meant to be
i miss all the signs
of hazardous chemistry
**** this
**** that
**** me
*******
i know you'll get
what's coming to you
cause karma's a *****
and she's working for me
so we'll see who's left last
you just wait and see

let's clean the slate
we'll sleep in late
& learn how to appreciate
every inch of our skin
every moment we're in
we'll teach each other how to sin.
we stayed in together
despite nice weather
& by the night,
our bodies were tethered.

i'm so lucky that you are alive
& laying by my side
if there's one thing that i hope
it's that you'll always be near by.

when you walk into the room,
my heat skips a beat.
your the only person i can see,
and the only reason i'm there.
when our eyes meet,
every part of me tingles.
your eyes shine so bright..
your the most beautiful thing,
that iv'e ever seen.
your fancy clothes,
make me anxious to hold you,
and anxious to get you alone.
you light up the room with your smile.
& in that moment i know,
that i'm the luckiest person in the world.
you wave to me,
and i just stare.
you find your way to me,
past all the faces.
i wrap my arms around you,
and feel your warmth,
i could spend the rest of my life here.
you tell me you love me,
and i feel it.
i ask you to leave,
and you take my hand.
i would follow you,
into the darkest of places.
but you take me to a clearing instead.
we lay down,
our faces pointed towards the sky.
sparks flying,
further then we can see.
i rest my head on you,
and hear your heartbeat.
if i could only find the words..
you kiss me,
your undeniable.
you feel so right it hurts.
& i don't know why,
it took so long
for me to realize.
that i had unmistakably fallen...
for you.

black cannot show without white
wrong cannot live without right
dark cannot come without light
love cannot live without pain
loss cannot come without gain
sun cannot shine without rain

yang would be lost without yin
for everything bad has good within

lay with me,
rest your bones.
here you are loved,
here you are home.
smells like peace,
tastes like fire.
feel the heat,
of sweet desire.
here hearts race,
and time goes slow.
sparks fly high,
and bodies flow.
locked eyes,
squeezed thighs,
we feels so high.
we're young,
and crazy,
and so alive.

you went
from being my everything
to being my nothing
so fast
it made my head spin
and my heart ache
and my face cringe
and my voice shake
and my eyes sting
and my earth quake
and my ears ring
and my pain wake

you went
from being me best friend
to my worst enemy
so fast
that i was left where i stand
with tears on my cheeks
holdin a shadows hand
and feeling so weak
all my colours gone bland
you gave up on me
didn't me a chance

you went
from being my biggest fan
to my biggest source of pain
so fast
that afterwards
i could feel nothing
but question everything
i believed nothing
but thought of everything
i was treated like nothing
you were treated like everything
i was given nothing
but in the end... i got everything

It's 2am and I miss you.
All I wanna do is kiss you.
And I'm lying in bed, with you in my head,
And I'm wishing that you were next to me,
So we could keep each other company,
Warm each other with our chemistry,
Create electric friction when our bodies meet.

when we share time
it moves fast and slow
and fast and slow
at the same time
when our hearts beat
they drum fast and slow
and fast and slow
at the same time
when our lips breathe
they speak fast and slow
and fast and slow
at the same time
when our hands meet
they feel fast & slow
and fast and slow
at the same time
when we make love
we fall fast and slow
and fast and slow
at the same time
when our souls become one
they dance fast and slow
and fast and slow
at the same time

oh how fast we fall
in and out
of each other's hearts
like a fire
waiting to start
first it sparks
then it spreads
from your heart
to your head
into your room
and then your bed
and it just spreads
all over the place
envelopes you in
& makes no haste...
but in one quick gust
out goes the flame
and just like that
the winds of change
turn tender love
to blatant pain
just swoops on in
and changes game
it's almost enough
to drive you insane
cause then you are left
standing in the dark
standing in the wreckage
of your burnt shattered heart
that once had a beat
of deep love conviction
but now looks like the site
of a quick demolition
and compared to the future
that you planned in your head
what you though would be bright
is now withered and dead

your eyes,
like the earth.
seeing me,
grounding me.
your lips,
make me yearn.
tasting me,
hastily.
your hands,
like a potter.
spinning me,
shaping me.
your body,
makes me hotter.
electrifying,
energy.
your soul,
like gold.
engaging me,
and changing me.
my heart,
you hold.
readily,
and steadily.

and you clung to me
the way wet jeans
stick to my legs
in hard rain
and we may have well been soaked
because that night
you cried enough tears
to flood this whole town
you cried enough tears
to drowned us both
it's a good thing we float
your heart was a storm
beautiful
mysterious
unpredictable
misunderstood
and let's not forget
potentially destructive
but i didn't care
i wanted to understand
to feel
to devour
every drop of your pain
every ounce of your shame
i wanted to show you
the sun inside you
i wanted to show you
the new day
that's waiting
behind your leaky eyes
and runny nose
and broken soul
but for now
you can cling to me
release you agonies
and i will never
let you think
that you are anything less
then gold
and i will never make you feel
that you are anything less
then whole
and i will never
let you sink
so hold me tight
and don't let go

sometimes i feel down,
sometimes i feel blue.
when times like that come,
i just sit and think of you.
you are like the sun,
shining down on me.
you make it easy,
to be so happy.

we never did care,
about what they say.
so why start now,
let's quit the work & play.
the earth is my oyster,
and your my pearl,
let's stop wasting time,
and go explore the world.

don't go anywhere,
you know how much i care.
we can see the world,
hand in hand, i'm your girl.
don't you wanna see it all,
the pyramids, and the great wall,
laughing, singing dancing, grinning,
we make a good team.

i'll watch your back,
& you'll watch mine.
nothing will stop us,
we'll leave our doubts behind.
we'll face all our fears,
will beat them with love.
we'll swim with the sharks,
we'll fly with the doves.

we'll smile at the strangers,
we'll smile at the sky,
we smile at the darkness,
we smile at the light.
we're finally where,
we wanted to be.
nothing to hold us back,
you & i are free.

& we'll go anywhere,
if there's danger we don't care,
we're gonna see the world,
hand in hand, yah i'm your girl.
we stand so proud & tall,
at the pyramids, and the great wall,
laughing, singing dancing, grinning,
we make a good team.

50 years have come and gone,
and here we are.
sitting in our rocking chairs,
playin some cards.
i make you cookies,
& you make me tea,
still happy to be with you,
living in a tree.

we talk of the things we've seen,
& all we've learned.
we were right there moving,
with the world as it turned.
i have no fears now,
i have no regrets.
we lived the good life,
we we're the best.

we went everywhere,
& i hope you know that i still care,
ya we saw the world,
hand in hand, & 'im still your girl.
we got to see it all,
the pyramids, the great big wall,
laughing, singing, dancing, grinning,
we'll always be a team.

in a world made of heart,
but sorely lacking in love,
i fill myself with passions sweet grace
to bring the sun out from its place
where it hides beneath your face
of lost loves and past pains
of heartache and mistakes
& there I will find you
broken and bold
needing something to hold
and I will be that something
and you will never be told
by another soul
how you look in the light
of unconditional love
hold tight, it's alright.
let me lift you above
feel your heart taking flight
that you thought didn't work
but it did, and it does
and I am what it deserves.

would you like to come over and get drunk?
and talk about feelings and cry about life.
we can share our greatest dreams, and our biggest fears.
i could tell you about how much i love my friends,
or how much i need someone close,
and how i fear falling in love again.
i could tell you about how i love people a little too much,
and want to constantly write poetry about every beautiful thing that i see.
we could talk about the irreplaceable, unconditional love our pets give us,
or how magnificent the sky looks as it transforms into a new day.
i could tell you about how destructive to myself i am,
and how i so recklessly wear my heart on my sleeve,
hoping that you will you see,
and understand some part of me.
what would you see...
what you you say...
what would you show..
and after you know...
would you still wanna go...

what you choose to think and believe influences how you view the world amd how your reality is shaped.
you are, and everything els is, exactly what you make it to be.
if you believe the earth to be a beautiful place filled with love and opportunity, that that is how it shall be.
if you believe you are divine & strong, then that you will be, and vise versa.
we choose the path that our souls take .
if you believe in nothing, then nothing will happen.
if you believe in reincarnation, then that is what will happen to you.
if you believe in the stars, then you will go there.
it's all up to you my beautiful co-creators!
where you go, how you feel, how you precieve things, & how things effect you.
you choose, and you create it all.
and if you truly believe in something, you will manifest it into truth, and into reality.
hold no doubts about yourself, about your potential, and your powers.
fill your heart and mind, with love and dream BIG.

DREAM IS DESTINY

sometimes it's so hard to wake up,
leave your dreams, to a scene where you want to throw up.
you try to ignore all the grim and the grime,
you work, and you waste, & you rush & loose time.

sometimes it's hard to be happy,
when your boss is a **** , & your salaries ******.
and you get no time to rewind or slow down,
there are bills you should pay, but you wanna leave town.

sometimes it's hard to breathe,
all the hate and the lies, it's so hard to conceive.
doesn't anyone care there are children who cry,
they need food, they need love, but we sit as they die.

sometimes it's hard to feel sane,
when spend your whole day doing things that you hate.
you cheat, & you lie, & you steal, & you cuss,
you question & judge, you don't know how to trust.

i don't know what is real..
every time i wake up, it just feels so surreal.
what am i looking to find..
just a little peace of mind,
i'm in search of the sublime.

sometimes it's hard to let go,
of the things that you love, of the love that you know.
when you get torn apart, when your down on your knees,
its so hard to find hope, to find joy, to find peace

sometimes it's hard to ignore,
all the pain, & the death, & the hate in the world.
you turn on your tv, and its all the you see,
you wish you could help, but you cant so you weep.

sometimes its hard to feel safe,
when you sitting at home and then soldiers invade.
or your trying to fight for your right to be free,
but the cops throw you down, cause they're running the streets.

sometimes it's hard to escape,
when you got no money, and you got no plane.
so you try to do drugs, so you don't have to deal,
with the fact that your trapped, and don't know how to feel.

i don't know what is real...
every time i wake up, it just feels so surreal.
what am i looking to find...
just a little peace of mind,
i'm in search of the sublime.

i read you words a hundred times
i still can't shake them from my mind
they'll haunt me till the day i die
blind-sighted by empty goodbyes

the end nears
another year
souls catch fire
and give light
to new solutions
and resolutions
for new ways
and better days

I just wanna cry, cry, cry,
but I just gotta try, try, try.
I know it's hard but baby please,
i'll believe in you,
if you'll believe in me.
we can make it through these days,
we can find a better way.
this will only make us stronger,
it's taken me a little longer,
to realize just what it takes,
but i'm workin on it every day.
Cause i'm tired of waiting on you.
I gotta do my own thing,
gotta find my own truths.
gotta chase my dreams,
before life leaves me behind.
no more wasting time.
I'm putting money on these rhymes.
& I really thought I lost myself,
but it's all good, cause now I'm found.
I was blind, but now I see,
the future that's in front of me.
to have your love is all I need,
I'll love you till my soul's set free.
and we'll always meet right back here,
just have no fear, i'll make it dear.
Cause no matter where you are,
I will be in your heart.
I'll always be your biggest fan,
you'll always be my gentleman.
I know it's hard but baby please,
i'll believe in you,
if you'll believe in me.
we can make it through these days,
we can find a better way.
this will only make us stronger,
it's taken me a little longer,
to realize just what it takes,
but i'm workin on it every day.

a pale & gloomy day,
laced in loneliness.
motivation..... lacking.
inspiration..... slacking.
as sad as the clouds,
raining down on my parade.

what is love
baby don't hurt me
or try to convert me
into something i'm not

what is love
baby don't hurt me
please don't desert me
your all that i've got

the way you dress
the way you taste
the way you laugh
you smiling face

you leave me breathless
weak in the knees
you got me singing love songs
and staying up pass three

i know, i know
that this ain't how it's suppose to go
we always try to take it slow
but before we know it, it's all over.
why waste our time,
when love is so easy to find,
a million hearts, a million minds,
& it's never to late to start all over.

both these roads are grassy green,
but which is for the taking?
after all the pain i've seen,
i can't do much more breaking.
it's hard being a daisy,
you don't know who to trust.
just because your lovely,
doesn't mean you won't be plucked.

sometimes i worry that the war will never end
sometimes i worry that blood will always be shed

sometimes i worry that children will die
sometimes i worry that humanity cries

sometimes i worry that he will never think he's good enough
sometimes i worry that she will never hear she's beautiful

sometimes i worry for my future son & daughter
sometimes i worry we will run out of water

sometimes i worry that we won't wake up in time
sometimes i worry that we've all lost our minds

do you ever worry about these things in your head?
when you can't get to sleep, and your laying in bed.
i do all the time, it's hard to ignore,
all the pain and the lies and the hate in the world.
it's madness out there..
but i have faith that the divine human spirit will pull through.
i have faith in me & i have faith in you.
all i really want is to love you, wont you let me in?
i know you wanna love me too, and let healing begin.
let's clean the slate, erase all hate, re-write our fate, before it's too late.
to everyone you meet do nice things & enjoy the little joys life brings.

eyes meeting
hearts beating
minds racing
fingers tracing
hands clutching
flesh touching
lips locking
bodies rocking
sweat dripping
clothes slipping
time urging
souls merging
