#expire
This entire empire of dirt and manure is about to expire
I'm not gonna lie, between you and I, I wish I was a lier
My mind though is compulsive when lighting it's pants on fire
Nose long as a telephone wire, front and center like a town crier
And the shiit that I get from myself and the public stacks higher and higher
I know exactly what's about to transpire
Yet I always make it worse, never better
Like a water geyser to a grease fire
I'll forever be a fumblin', bumblin' reality denier
Faced with a situation that can only be described as dire
When you've only ever been able to hire a blind get-a-way driver
There's no chance of escaping this hell, life organically becoming satire

Just because you can
...and...
Maybe you have,
Danced with fire
That does not mean that same flame will not burn after expired
Leaving a new want to expire
Like desire
Or so I've heard from the choir
But then again most everyone I've met,
Myself included,
Is a lier
And yet,
For reasons unknown,
I'm still a buyer
Then shortly after,
A broken heart supplier

I have a two-week breaking point.
For 14 days I go through the motions: emotionless.
For a fortnight of time, I am indifferent to all things.
Yet on that 15th day I snap, bringing my composure down as well.
On the 15th day, I resort back to a shell of dependency,
hunkering away in isolation with nobody to depend on.
I become a nail made for a wall, but with no wall to go into.
My sole purpose is hopeless and my ambitions crushed.
Some may say I have a two-week expiration date.

It appears I have an expiration date
Tattooed on my back
That screams "10 years"
And you were keeping track.

Want and need expire
Then all that's left is two choices
To love or To quit
Its clear which one you made
Or maybe it was never a choice
Or maybe you made it a long time ago
Maybe I was blind
Hopeful
Alone
Longing

What do you truly inspire,
buildings caught on fire,
looking for a purpose in this life but it'll just expire,
sitting here in all 50 states that's corrupted and dire,
telling you these products will help you , they're a bunch of liars,
other countries dying for the truth and hope that they've lost,
encountering villains with no faces , do they have a boss?
if your black , they have plans for you to die and get tossed,
try to sway the weak and break the strong , pray you don't get soft.

Forever
Got half life
I’m not God to tell
When it expires
If I could predict
The future
I would have never
Believed in forever.

Spa D is on fire
Administration is a liar
Student body has a desire
Let's fulfill our needs before we expire
You think your threats can stop us
I'm sure we didn't want to make a fuss
What makes you be at a nonplus
Let us know when you are ready to discuss
For how long will you bluff?
Don't you think it's enough?
We've suffered enough over the years
We have overcome all our fears
Don't light up the fire with our tears
You better stop playing with our careers
All that we ask for is some trust
But you left us all in utter disgust
Spa D is on fire
Administration is a liar
Student body has a desire
Let's fulfill our needs before we expire

Having passed all our notes, in boring English class
My comments on her eyes, she really likes my ***
I compliment her figure, she imagines, her hands in my hair
Passing in the crowded corridors, each of us, the stare
In dreams we do things, that our bodies will allow
To fragile does she seem, for the here, and now
I dare not reach between, our beating hearts and raging fires
Too delicate to touch, I believe our souls, would then expire

Love is to burn and beauty is to discern
It is a point from where there is no return
Hence I have my concern to be more stern
We both enjoy and celebrate our pattern
Let me see in your eyes to nurture romance
Come in my arms to celebrate and to dance
How can I forget your sweet and lovely glance
Beauty gives chance and love takes chance
From the day I am in love I burn in love fire
With every flame of fire I inspire to admire
My rivals inquire what I got from love desire
But I want to continue with desire till I expire

My sweetheart my love is so pleased in your service
Your beauty is treasure to which surrenders universe
In your style and graces you are so simple but diverse
On which my soul dances you are that poetic verse
Do not play hide and seek as clouds play with moon
For my love's worship your beauty is but just a boon
Please help my love ,love with graceful beauty attune
My love is like a barren land your beauty is monsoon
Let me taste the dew of your beauty with my love fire
Let me sail in ocean of beauty do not take me to mire
Please place your hand on my chest help me to inspire
My beloved take me be mine to aspire less I just expire

I'm the worded avenger,
The clickety-clack of typewriters delight.
These are all I have of me,
Words that don't betray and leave.
What else can there be?
But empty pages filled with hollow words,
Leave all to be desired.
For reading can lose all its love,
When all words created expire.

An idea is very powerful
It never stays the same
It grows til it can grow no more
Then discharges like rain
An idea is not eternal
For some ideas expire
The ones that dont grow more still...
And spread like wild fires
An idea can change the world
For better, or for worse
A chain reaction follows them
Wherever they go first
The place where ideas show up last
Mostly get credit or blame
Good and evil are ideas too
Yet we use them all the same
So ideas give purpose to mankind
No matter what, the're free
They can be either good or bad
Like the nature of humanity

Time is not a concept,
it’s a preconception
created by people that have never felt
love.
Or, so I always believed.
Now, I sit awake every night
thinking about our expiration date,
the day to which we
meet a bitter demise.
A demise devised by
a whole world around us,
a world that will
never see the shrink sticker stuck.
The ticking won’t stop
on the time bomb of us,
as we leap, crawl, roll, dart
to our expiration date.
We can’t stop rolling,
faster down this path
to a little place that
will be our personal hell.
A hell that we believe in,
a hell that he is counting on,
a hell that hath its fury,
a hell that I am dreading.
Yet, everyday I take your hand,
kiss your fingers,
caress your lips,
and stare at the brilliance that is your eyes
in an attempt to forget
our expiration
date.

Passion is a burning flame
where adversity is but gasoline
my passion will burn, and wont soon expire
your oppression will only make my flame, a fire
and ill feed my passion with love and glory
and you'll be left alone, no one else to tell your story
