Life is like snowflakes for not one moment is the same.
For you can never repeat and go back to a day,
Where you enjoyed life and lived it with purpose.
And yet we struggle with it because we think it’s not worth it.

Every moment, every breath will never repeat.
So make the most of each one so that when you look back and see,
Your history and wasted time of your past,
You’ll recall that you have to make every second last.

Moments are snowflakes for not one is the same.
Not one is identical in form, color or shade.
There may be many of them in the wind but they’re still unique.
But they are always there for you when you feel so tired and weak.

The wind surrounds us and tells us we can’t keep drifting,
Causing our confidence to melt down and start shifting.
Not one snowflake is the same for they’re so beautifully complicated.
Each pattern is so intricate as if it stated,

“I am myself and that is okay.”
“For if I never wake up I can still say,
‘You are loved.’”
After all, your patterns were created with the Father’s hands above.

I said I’d never catch feelings...
The situation would be far too complicated.
It was 5 a.m. and we were still laughing.
You made me feel free and happy,
For the first time in a long time.
I just couldn’t help myself.

It took me far too long to learn
you are far more complicated and spectacular
than magic will ever be.

I love how you use words
that excite me to think about
and how I hate that your
words never turn into the fantasy
i see through my eyes

If we could turn back time,
would we do it all again?
Would it all stay complicated
or would we manage to be fine?

If we could turn back time,
would we still say all we said?
Would it still be all so hard,
or would we see beyond the games?

If we could turn back time,
would we still hurt each other?
Would we still try to make it up,
and would we still feel it's worth it all?

If we could turn back time,
could we just raise above?
Could we hold on to each other?
Could we make it better than the past?

Simply the hammers ruled
What the judges decided
Weren’t justice speaking

Clearing the obstacles ahead
They walked smiling two faces
Told the lies weren’t the truths

Later found inside yellow tapes
Do not cross, crime scenes
Didn’t they warn you earlier?

What counterfeit and black spoke
Never revealed the pointy tooth
Now devils ruled angels and souls

Poetry and I have broken up,
Words were spoken, she took dog.

We tried speaking to someone together,
They didn't say much, just listened.

Poetry and I are back together,
We had a chat, she gave me cat.

We're going away together soon,
Nice hotel, gonna read horse together.

The trip didn't go well,
Things were said, she took a fence.

It's my faulty though, I spoke poorly,
I have no fence.

I'm chasing my dream
You're chasing yours
So why do we fall
through this damaged door?
You sing songs
about broken glass
You're still bitter
but my thirst never ends
You still drape yourself
like you never left

Redemption.
In a way, the geode is a symbol of redemption.
On the outside, it looks as if it has nothing.
It looks as if it will never contain anything worth smiling over.
However, if one were to break the stone.
If one were to shatter it.
Force it apart.
One would find the shiny array of crystals within.
And in this way, we are all simple geodes.
Holding small complicated things inside.
But it's good.
It's good to be complicated.
For one day, someone will see you in all your complex and confusing contradictory glory.
And they will think that in this sense,
in this one instance.
That you are the most beautiful thing they will ever witness.

Now that I've entered the world
Of this burning tree
I feel much more fully
Because it's the only time I can

And the thought of you makes my heart ache
I don't know where we're at
My chest is heavy with the chance of losing you
I truly love you with all my heart

But understand I have trust issues
Honesty is the only option for me
So when I sense dishonesty
It shuts me down immediately

I feel petrified
Unable to move

And instead of running
I let my fires spend outward

But I love you
And though I say I'll be ok alone
Life would feel meaningless
Without your hand in mine

But I understand if you have to leave
You'll be in my heart forever
