My dear sweet little lady
tell me how you still feel
'cause even broken memories
are wounds that tend to heal.

You've passed through almost
everything,
cold creatures made of steel
my dear sweet little lady
tell me how you still feel.

I still can't even fathom
your strength, it seems
surreal,
'cause even when the dust was
settled
you never, ever kneeled.

My dear sweet little lady
tell me how you still feel
and know that broken memories
are wounds that always heal.
P.S
Though some nights I can hear
your silent lonely cries
they really come to show that:
from pain you always rise.

Dear Tristan,

          You say your good at math,
          But you apparently can't count
I realized that I put out five already, so I thought I would have a little fun with this one.

As the waves come crashing into the shore
And the gulls fly overhead
And the sounds fill my ears

I am reminded

Of the frailty of life
Of nature’s cycle
Of destiny for all of us that inhabit this planet

Is life fair
Is life just
Is life a must

Or a journey to be endured
Or a lifetime of highs and lows
Or something to see as we go

Sometimes I do wonder why we are all here
Sometimes I am amazed of all the fear
Sometimes I can’t resist to insist

A prayer for those near and dear
A prayer for those unknown to me
A prayer for those I have yet to see

And as I dose myself to sleep
And my eyelids become heavy and deep
Another day awaits for me to greet

Dear Tristan,

          How is it you constantly tell the truth to others,
          But you always lie to yourself?
Tristan Brown Oct 2017
Dear Tristan,

          You don't use your strengths,
          But instead you use what you want to be strong

Dear Tristan,

          How can you care for others,
          But not care for yourself?
Tristan Brown Oct 2017
Dear Tristan,

          You're a coward,  
          But you're too scared to admit it
This is the very first of my Dear Tristan collection, and hopefully, there are many more to come.

My gnawing heart upsets my soul;
I have been drained of my cheerfulness, and there is now a hole.
There is no reason for this sorrow;
But yet I still think about the anxieties of tomorrow.
I simply cannot let go of my tears;
Alas! I still worry about my dark fears.
Yet there is a way to conquer this foe;
By asking those you love to pick you up when low.
There is still hope my fair kin;
For a new joy starts rising, and soon will begin!

For you are not alone in this fight;
Family and neighbors share with you their delight.
Their love is spread deeply all around;
They would put you on a throne, and have you crowned.
I tell you again, you are not by yourself in this world;
For the ones so dear to you will surely make your sorrows unfurl.
Friends and family are amongst you always and forever;
For they actually think you are quite clever.
You must look at this in a way that is strong;
For your family and friends were there all along.

Dear Mr. TimeKeeper
You took my time;
Something that was rightfully mine
No more time for this or that.
I want my time, rewind it back!
