Life can be so strange when you're standing in the middle of it all
but so wonderful at the same time

Watching the motions
tracing the lines
Each day I find
it leads to inside

Sow what is spoken
thread what is open
never stop hoping
for what's up in the sky

I can't tell you
what's up ahead
but I can show you how it is
to face the fear instead

What's the cost of letting go of doubt and believing in yourself?
It's shedding off the skin of another that tries to bind your spirit
A bitter thought is cast aside if you let the heart guide you
That's why I won't waste my time
Or my flesh
Or my blood
On the pains of the petty lies

I can't change the fact
paths have been lain and walked across the earth before me
It's an original act
the notes seem the same but their blend makes a different story


I'm so tired of sleeping
wired in dreaming
someone please pull the chord
and bring me back home

Call singularity
combine divine polarities
Grant me the clarity
I don't plan to walk alone

Lost
Looking for you at any
Cost
Waiting for an
Opportunity to show itself
But now I'm just putting my dreams on the shelf

I'm a time bomb
Waiting to explode
The end
At the end of the road.
The fuse that leads to the dynamite
The visible kid who tries to stay outta sight

And the world shatters around me,
Dust and glass surround me,
Darkness extends it's embrace,
As I lie in my resting place...
If you can't think of anything,
express yourself.

It's raining it's pouring
But we will dance till the morning.
When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall.
I had given you my all.
Kissed the girls and made them cry
I know I promised not to pry.
Jack and Jill went up a hill
Can I ever find my will?
One for the dame
You never one for being tame.
Peter Peter pumpkin eater
Once a liar always a cheater.
Humpty dumpty sat on a wall
I try not to cry, waiting for your call.
Three blind mice, three blind mice
My heart is turning into ice.
The king was in his counting house counting out his money
Now this game isn't so funny.
London Bridge is falling down,
Along with the shreds of my gown.
Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down!
Deep into the water to drown.

Mary Mary quite contrary
Just your name makes me wary
And frightened Miss Muffet away
As I wait for you at home and pray.
Little Bo peep fell fast asleep
So back home you will creep.
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
Her heart is broken and all the blame falls on you.
The more he saw the less he spoke
Causing me, on my words, to choke.
She's dead of course!
She is a never ending force!
I pray the lord my soul to keep
Because honey, hell ain't cheap.
I mourn for my love
Just like the distant dove.

He didn't get up in the morning
The sirens are roaring...
Down will come baby, cradle and all
Hide the body behind the wall.
When the boys come out to play
I won't want them to stay.
Jack fell down, and broke his crown
Now I feel like a clown
One for the master
I've never run faster.
Had a wife
Who ended it with a knife.
Couldn't put Humpty together again
Now our relationship has no strain.
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
All because of a strife
The queen was in the parlor eating bread and honey,
With the world outside so bright and sunny.
My fair lady,
Never looks quite as shady.
A pocket full of posies
In prison I will be nice and cosy.

I used these sites to find a lot of the nursery rhyme lines that I used.
I really liked writing this piece, it was fun.

creative destruction
too beautiful to fault until ashes
(and even then all I want is a different ending or none at all).
silent sunrise that you can’t hear but you can feeeEEEEL
elsewhere.
the hum of existence and how you always danced around it
and coincidently it never lined up for me.
self is such a strange concept that sometimes I forget
and other times it consumes and I am    sorry  so    sorry.
what are you if you aren’t always discovering?
what is she when there is a cost?
what would she have been if rewind and stand outside to see truth
it’s like looking through a kaleidoscope
what is the magnitude?
axiom
this is called spring
and I’m through wasting it.
I only wanted
To be free without the cost
But it wasn't easy.

No longer lost
But at what cost
Future seems surreal
Hard to even finish a meal
Knowing your gone
Brings me here laying on the lawn
Don't know why
I can not cry
Pain so strong
I know it's wrong

No longer lost
But at what cost
I found what I needed
It made me grow my heart it feeded
The passion from inside
Was something that I could not hide
A beauty so deep
It's the only thing I think when I sleep
But gone she is now
She left she took a bow
To another stage
To another page

No longer lost
But at what cost
I've lost you now
But it's shown me how
To find away
To stand up without dismay
I may have lost
But I'm no longer lost
Because you showed me a way
To spend every single day
To live for me
And truly be free
Live so alive
And not deprive
Myself oh my love  
Now ill rise above

No longer lost
But a what cost
The cost is you
When I was with you I flew
When I lost you I almost died
That days an nights I may have cried
I thank you
Cause I worked on through
Because of the cost
I found my way I'm no longer lost
Sometimes the lost can feel like more then the cost at first glance but that ideal can change
Amber Leslie Apr 2014
Lost to the cost
of family gone
puzzle of sorrow
fill the space
an empty case
sits in a lake
full of sorrow
no tomorrow
study the cost
all is lost
money gone
bills to pay
waste the day
to hide away
family gone
morn the loss

what's the price of happiness and when is it on sale?
