#lackofcommunication
Chattering birds, not colourful But friendly in their own grey way. They make a lot of noise, Not really saying much But making a big effort To be understood. So willing to help But not to commit, Each proposal embraced By a disclaimer; they mean well, Of course, they do. Their motivation can’t be faulted, But there’s need for a psychic, a mind-reader, For everything’s insinuated, nothing discussed. So many points pronounced, declared, Underlined, exclamated but not communicated, Feeling no empathy, we all put on our coats Against the cold draft of confusion. .

Committee Meeting
I want you to be comfortable with me To feel free in my presence To spit what comes to mind And not think about the sentence And just tell me how you feel Cause you're not made of steel And if you were hurt before I can help you heal But you're not listening to me You're barely hearing what I'm saying Cause you're being shy and timid And I'm the one who's paying For whatever you don't tell me Cause I know it had to hurt you But you play the strong guy and I admire your virtue I wanna hear whats in you're mind And taste the lips of your soul Touch the hands of your past And smell success in ya future goals I need to see you show me that maybe I am trusted Cause if you don't trust me it's fine Maybe you ain't love and just lusted But tell me Tell me how your emotions are acting Cause I see through ya smile Inside I know you're cracking Tell me You not letting me walk with you through the hands of time And sharing with me the evilness that's lurking in ya mind I wanna be able to look at you and be on the same level Cause if we're both going to hell, we're both meeting the same devil I ain't here to judge you And I won't hate you for before I understand you might be hurting Cause I have my own sores So I can be your friend I can be your help I can be support With everything you've dealt I can be a savior I can be a shrink I can be ya motivation If you want to sink I can be ya trust But do you even know what trust is? Cause I'm trying to show you how I've learned what true love is Therefore Tell me about the love Tell me about the hate Cause you accepting yourself That's what makes a person great.

Tell Me About The Love
