Take me to a place of music and laughter Like you, I keep my head above waters There’s a place that’s waiting for me Out where I could just be No, I don’t know where the road’s heading But I trust in my silver lining Make me a free-spirit in the air I grow wild- to live, I dare Don’t let it get you Don’t. *** Pity, There’s a wonder they will never see

Where good things grow
Sprinkle drops of honey upon the forehead of her beauty, Lay upon her pale skin the velvet blue of night. Night, breathing the sweetness of her joyful voice, Night setting alight with the sparkles in her eyes. Streak her hair softly with the gleam of the moon, Carry her feet over shiny black pebbles, Round and smooth, in numerous existence, Guiding her steps, as she moves across the riverbed.

TO HER BEAUTY
Forgot the man who said He used to hide in the TV shelf's cabinet Out of anxiety and sadness Hidden from everyone But haunted by demons He could not escape Remember the one who bikes at full-speed Strong legs, taking himself places On adventurous journeys To the neighboring destinations Remember uncovering the eyes of the girl you love To show her an expression of your ardor In full bloom. I want to love someone like you Someone articulate In expressing compatibility Someone free-spirited and sturdy I want the you I remember The you that remains is one I forgot The sadness that desperately clings to The joy that nervously trembles on the steeple I know there is more to be remembered And less to forget The story I remember is spray-painted On a construction site spelling out: L-O-V-E It is music playing in a nearby house Two love-struck teenagers Dancing under lamposts Imagining moonlight The you that remains Is you with your puppies And just loving the runt "Maybe", I think now, "He's the runt and the runt is him"

Remembering
Riding in a hardtop with a few friends. Heads get groggy as grass burns between the lips With every pull of the roach, it repossess the swelling at the tip. My cranium fills with this potion sensation hip rotation. The air becomes dense then everything makes sense;   I have a roof over my head, but I hardly stand under it. No wage No claim that I am legal until the come of age. Society reeks of imperfection. Because society learns from received education Rather than stepping into the natural world. Where we stumble on honest situations, like meeting new friends. I walk upon the concrete streets, freely. The only routes I know are my true friends’ homes. But my superego tells me that I am alone. In this world I walk solo. And my only soul purpose is to free my spirit. Be free of mind while taking a hit.
