Thanks!
For leaving me when the cards were all on the table,
I have no animosity towards you, it's a ******* that
you are being labeled,
I stick out my tongue and taste the bad memories
That flow within me,
Haven't been in love for quite a century......
Thoughts are floating off and it's metal in the exhaust
And you will rain down on your enemies,
I can't grab the signals that you're sending me,
For I am kinda slow,
I put my heart on my sleeve , it drips out its holes,
I had enough shame in my life to build a second Eiffel
Tower in these tears that I hold,
And while selling your soul,
you think I'm getting old.....

And while the winds blow, I am forever young.

Filling out all of my vices in a box that I could never escape from,
My life is like an ant getting stepped on crying buffalo tears,
I've lost so much already in this world cringing from my knees to my thumbs,
Putting up with your **** and sad excuses is actually the real nightmare,
Don't beat yourself up too much when I'm gone and when your funeral has passed and went,
Even in death I'll be the mistake you created to provoke you to not care as much as you do now,
I'll never be like you and choose favorites,
I'll never be like you and just taught,
I'll never be like you , I'll never be like you and get off by locking your kid away,
My parent skills won't be subdued,
Telling people that you've done what you possible could do,
But he's a lost cause,
A lost cause with talent and lyrical spiritual voodoo to earn himself an award one day,
But you don't see that,
You didn't have that,
So ridicule me,
I'll never do that to any of my kids,
As a matter of fact I'll get everything on their wish list,
You'll never see them grow up to tell how great daddy is..

Do you really wish to be with me?
Empty words fill the void between us.
This is not how I wished things to be.
I know I really shouldn't make a fuss,
but why does if feel like you can see me?

Maybe I just need to let things go,
and let entropy do what it does best.
I can forget if I just go with the flow
along the way I'll figure out the rest.

The sun sets as the day comes to a close,
I thought I'd hear from you today,
but the silence has fueled my woes
leaving my emotions in disarray.

#2 pencils for your thoughts,
A minor invite to let the words flow from ones inner chi,
Slipping through the cracks and tears of images and frames that
Makes the mind project the bad memories in paranormal states
Of thinking about dark figures appearing in front of you and
Putting fear and feat inside while your body is paralyzed from
Head to toe in hopes that your soul will not get carried to hell as you
Hear the voices,
Let the ocean and the sun shower over your phases and sins,
Being young is a giving, it's not an accomplishment,
Clicking heels and biting black fingernails,
Be as spiritual as the dawn and the shine on fifty cents,
Young Man , Young Lady,
They are one,

Lucy's in the sky with diamonds tonight,
She's looking good,
Sparkles running through the vains of her eyes,
She knows it's just not fair
I miss you just as much as you miss me even though you're
Never there,
Up in the sky.....
I live to die......
a garden grave....
a garden grave.....
There are no slaves in the valley,
It's more important than family,
Some people deal with it commonly,
But also has their own anatomy,
I'm glad I find it so challenging,
But I rely on strateging,
You can't escape from the happenings,
Don't let your heart end up in packaging.

Admitting all the wrong doing just to make it right with
the Lord And Savior for all of eternity just resting my
Sanity of being paranoid of short comings and demons
That out weight on my life and execute my thoughts of
Bringing what I owe to the man up stairs getting away
From the black tar that burns the souls of the people
From the inside out and claiming their life as their own.


/


It awakes,
Like the fear to ache,
Opening my heart up to a force that loves and accepts
Any of my mistakes for I am a simple human being,
There's nothing in between,
Be my giving tree,
I'll build a box for you with Roses and letters glued to it
Like a mural,
I bet you didn't know I was an artist that's exquisitely
Careful,
If the light,
Shines brightly,
Run to it ,
Don't you stop,
Then hold his hand tightly,
I got a proper dose of reality for ya, when I open up
My mouth it's like an lucidless coma,
When I tell you I have issues,
Don't expect you to understand,
As long as I see the angels I will be a better man,
Than,
The guy that left me and guy that was never there,
In here tonight call to the light and recite all my prayers.
Can't say she never cared,
My mom,
She'll always be there.

Quiet friend who has come so far,

feel how your breathing makes more space around you.

Let this darkness be a bell tower

and you the bell. As you ring,

what batters you becomes your strength.

Move back and forth into the change.

What is it like, such intensity of pain?

If the drink is bitter, turn yourself to wine.

In this uncontainable night,

be the mystery at the crossroads of your senses,

the meaning discovered there.

And if the world has ceased to hear you,

say to the silent earth: I flow.

To the rushing water, speak: I am.

Sonnets to Orpheus II, 29
Rainer Maria Rilke wrote this not me (obviously). I use this passage for strength when I feel the fabric of my existence becoming too thin.  Hope you enjoy...

I can't shake this feeling of being alone with you,
We started phase 2,
I'm pushing towards you,
Can't forget about you,
On the verge of meeting you,
No regrets of seeing you,
With these beautiful views,

As smooth as the ocean that magnifys our exuberance
In the final hours of our life and our virtues may come
And pass like the day has gone with a simple stance
Hoping you would be remorseful to all your family and
Your peers as well as your imaginary friends that fight
To the end just to keep you sane,
Tell me about it ! I know your pain,
Search and destroy your insecurity as well as your depression
Asking these questions for all of the rest of days will as
Extinguished learning more than all the times that jealousy
Comes between you and the one you love,
I know all of the things that your thinking of,
Your beauty doesn't compare to your smarts in the stages
Of your education when becoming complacent with all of
Your patients just turning the tides and equations,

I can't shake this feeling of being alone with you,
We started phase 2,
I'm pushing towards you,
Can't forget about you,
On the verge of meeting you,
No regrets of seeing you,
With these beautiful views.

I am just a writer
though a poet by Design
waiting on these empty pages
and your worthless promises

I am staring at Old photographs
and the writing on the wall
and I recall

our better days and
younger years
that seem to just Drift Away on clouds I've stained with ink

and so I think
Some inspiration will come to me
in the form

of a message sent down
on Floating leaves

sent by the trees
that quilt the greenest patterned parts
of my memories

So I can see
what is written on these pages
and with the wisdom of our ages
all our empty, broken promises and  hurtful lies
and I try
to see reflection in the mirrors of the tears we cried

I am just a writer
and poet finding songs
So come along
with me
and I will take you to
the places that you want to see....
as I remember pages filled

I am just a writer
and
a poet by Design....

This is an ode Meant To Be sung, was truly inspired by my friend Stephan... who was one of the first to offer inspiration and encouragement. Again no idea if this is really good but it sang  like it was so thank you all my poetic friends helping me to find my voice.Peace -

I could invest all of my time into judging
Other people,
*******,
I could hold hands with all my ex's buried
In all these text messages,
*******,
Pop out of a cake like the abstract person I am,
*******,
My step dad's in jail and we're speaking on good
Terms I'm saying,
*******,

Why does life have to be so hard like ****,
I have no remorse for the ignorant
Hearts in this world,
Like ****,
......like ****,

I don't got time for the man sitting in the
Corner just staring at me,
I don't got time for the woman walking around
Doing a shopping spree,
I only have time for the purpose that's been
presented,
So he just gave it to me,
*******.

Are you gone?
We can't be done
Darling our love has just begun
Take my hand
won't you join me
In our spiraling wonderland
Try not to fall
But if you do
You're in luck
Because I'll be there to lift you up
Let life be
And maybe you'll truly see
A world of endless possibilities
