The tranquility one finds
On the road to sustainability.
Is the food the soul requires
To journey through eternity

A soul that is tormented and anguished
By the expectations of a reality
That barely does enough to maintain
The sanity of its humanity.

Is a soul that is stuck in the routine
Of a life lived dreaming a dream.
And never quite seeing any signs of relief
From the constant need to eat, work, sleep

But if one allows oneself
The opportunity to embrace our unity
Then the mundane society controlled by psychiatry
Falls away in a beautiful cascade of pain washed away.

As you finally face your place in this race
To get to a top that never seems to stop
And you finally see that the top they mean
Is the spot that let's you control the 'free'

But if you decide to be free and be like me
Then make a decision and start the dream
Don't talk of tomorrow because it's time that you borrow from the Today that is, and always has been,
The perfect day for your life to change.

Somewhere and someday,
Freedom will come
and so will my love
For you, is all
my embodiment needs,
to feel whole once again.

If i could go back in time
would my mistakes always haunt my mind?
step by step; i'm closer every day
Tomorrow seems a million miles away
TIIIIMMMEEE TRAAAVVVEEELLL!!!
JOURNEY WITH ME TO THE DEPTHS OF MY MIND

I've gone numb
The waves might crash,
but they fall 20 miles from shore.
I might hear gun shots,
but they're just echos in my mind.
I want to change
but the sad truth is
I'm numb.
But after all
isn't it just a drop of water in a flood?
Just something I wrote awhile ago.

there wasn't something
but there also
wasn't nothing

and now the gates to my heart have flown open

yesterday
today
tomorrow

three days
all seeming impossible to conquer
but i make it through
and come out on the other side
smiling.

The end is near
For you and me
Maybe tomorrow
Or the next
Maybe next year
Or in ten
We could have families
Or die alone
We could travel the whole world
Or stay at home
But for now lets just be
And live for the moment
I believe we all live for the important moments of life. We need those moments for fulfillment. :)

I. Just. Can't. Think.
I'm on the brink
As I blink
I  let her go and I sink

As I put up my guard
I'll rust like the bars on my heart
Let them tear me apart
Just leave me in the yard

I never knew your love was fake
So today I shake
You've shown me the strength that it takes
To cause an earthquake
