Don't let the moon cry She said As the earth grew another blade of grass It will be ok As the trees say Wish not for things to always be In order for life to grow They need room to spread their wings I cannot tell you how to balance This transient knowledge As I myself have been lost in the collage of greatness Can I ask you a question? Who are you? And why must I ask this?

Who are you?
I'm done being held down by what is believed to be right I had a vision of the future the pictures your painting for me Is a complete disillusion I see people They’re laughing They’re smiling Living life for themselves And not for the case of surviving Why is that we wish to hold ourselves back from Evolving past The relentless track of our human lack of understanding The thing is I don’t think its our choice If it was We would be there already Not money hungry for that new something something You saw on TV yesterday Why do we keep playing this game If we already know that tomorrow is a different day

Tomorrow is a Different Day
I feel unreal When I peer off into the distance As most humans only paint pictures they witness I miss this I miss the way we used to set our bars higher than the stars How the warmth of the sun can cool even the ****** and be done I wish it were that simple I wish that we could be held responsible for being what we are Because us We are not worthy of that responsibility But we will be One day One day we will be able to walk across the seas As do the birds And as well as the breeze One day the sky will clear Without any noxious gases limiting the visibility of our fears All we can do is hope Hope that one day We will be in charge of own tight rope

Tight Rope
By the creek we sit dormant Filling the empty spaces with sensational ornaments Like a Christmas tree We can be turned from plain To extraordinary All it takes is for you to sit and be still So that one day You can be the ruler of your world as well

Sit and Be Still
Until I find you I lay awake Before I fall asleep Trying to imagine What it would be like What it would feel like To hold you in my arms To taste your lips as they quiver for another kiss Then you would grab my neck with intent Pulling me closer Holding me harder As I run my fingers down the curves of your body Feeling...... Every........ Inch...... Slowly..... So slowly..... Just so I can see..... You... To get a glimpse of the truth hidden behind your lips I want to feel your heart beat Thumping on my chest I want to hear your voice Please sing to me Please stay with me Please don't leave me Again..... As I fall from this dreamality And realize it's nothing more than just another moment of insanity I still hear you I still feel you Darling until I find you Life will be just a preview

Until I Find You
Being alone Is not being lonely Being lonely Is not being depressed And being depressed doesn't mean your alone If we all focus on the messy details of the disaster we call our lives What would happiness be? What would it take to be happy? There is a reason we only see as well as we do There is a reason why we only fall asleep when it's time to We just don't know yet Well we know But we don't Does that make sense? Yeah, Me either If I was going to wish for something Something that would actually help people in the way that we're suppose to be helped It have something to do with love And then a lot more love on top of that Like the Beatles said All you need is love That's because love is all you need

Being Alone
Jenny, I'm in love Jenny my love Jenny, I love I love Jenny My love is Jenny Im in love with Jenny 4 minutes of the most Intimate Exciting Scary Moment of my life Has just occurred Not in the sense that it just happened But, I mean We just happened WE JUST HAPPENED! In the most random, precise way possible I left my home for a journey across country For a new adventure For a new beginning Who knew That the adventure was you Beginning with the first time we spoke around 2 A.M. Who would have known That the girl I met and fell in love with was you I didn't Did you? I didn't know dreams could come true Until I looked at you Into your eyes more specifically For 4 minutes We sat Staring Wondering Thinking Hearts beating As we switch to other eye because One eye isn't enough When we smile nervously because we are wondering if we are both feeling The same Feeling From the bottoms of your toes To the tip of your nose I love you Jenny Which way shall we go? Everywhere? That's what I was thinking

Letters to Jenny: 4 Minutes
Next to nowhere She lays Still bitten with the rage Of the still torn pages inside The left look behind She saw 12 Hundreds in gathering to see a masterpiece To see a great feast take place Inside the belly of the beast we embrace We brace for 10 until later our velvet skin was torn It was not a book she was reading Life admits it to be true Things only seem as they seem to you As they are As we are 8 left We read from the dead to find the meaning of life Still hidden from Foreign to the match tip burns Rage to the night Rage to all the ends of the strings tied to the ropes we bleed from Free fall to the once forgotten song We sing We breathe in again Within minutes of each other The numbers fall 6 legs on this chair Holding each one Carefully in the air Not the slightest ripple From even the slow moving and inconvenient We all crawl as one A notebook drawn by the sun With the letters as colors and pages as numbers We will all learn to see when it's raining We will learn to be forgiven For what has happened 4 steps to the partially broken door hinge Lay Waste to the less fortunate For I have come without a hood to cover my ears Up the elevator we climb To the tip of the mountain we press This is not a test 2 questions unanswered Wrong We must learn to run before we crawl the voices say To follow your heart From every beat And from every start There will be a finish A tapered trip to an answer well lived to be heard Hear all what you want to see like And say all that you wish to breathe like

We All Crawl As One
Next to nowhere She lays Still bitten with the rage Of the still torn pages inside The left look behind She saw 12 Hundreds in gathering to see a masterpiece To see a great feast take place Inside the belly of the beast we embrace We brace for 10 until later our velvet skin was torn It was not a book she was reading Life admits it to be true Things only seem as they seem to you As they are As we are 8 left We read from the dead to find the meaning of life Still hidden from Foreign to the match tip burns Rage to the night Rage to all the ends of the strings tied to the ropes we bleed from Free fall to the once forgotten song We sing We breathe in again Within minutes of each other The numbers fall 6 legs on this chair Holding each one Carefully in the air Not the slightest ripple From even the slow moving and inconvenient We all crawl as one A notebook drawn by the sun With the letters as colors and pages as numbers We will all learn to see when it's raining We will learn to be forgiven For what has happened 4 steps to the partially broken door hinge Lay Waste to the less fortunate For I have come without a hood to cover my ears Up the elevator we climb To the tip of the mountain we press This is not a test 2 questions unanswered Wrong We must learn to run before we crawl the voices say To follow your heart From every beat And from every start There will be a finish A tapered trip to an answer well lived to be heard Hear all what you want to see like And say all that you wish to breathe like

Simple yet a affective We dream of the day without needing disinfectant It's not that we are ***** It's that we are And never will be clean Enough We will never be 100% No germ No ******** It's written in pen But you accidentally smudged it with your freshly cleaned linen We live in a world where everything is a mess But optimistically call it's it "A little spill" Or "a few crumbs" You never hear anyone talk about how ****** the world is Like they're going to get something done Not any sort of panic No fear of the unknown It's become so normal That we forget that we are owned Some one has a file with our name on it In a drawer, in a room with only one door But someone locked it And no one knows who But if there is anything to look forward to There is a door And behind it The world is so much more

Secrets
I am still I am calm I am dusk I am dawn From the tips of my toes To the highest books on the shelf I wait for you Please Let me Let me be your eyes darling Let me see the color of your sky From the perspective of your eyes Let me reach out and touch you With my hands holding yours Let me follow you to no where And I will open all the doors We will leave this place forever And find somewhere new That will always play summer And the sky always blue

Please Let Me
Soaked on the feeling The longing for something different From where? We don't know From who We don't know The difference between there and here Isn't what is better But what is right We have fallen a sleep for far too long To still be dreaming We must fight For our right to be awake We must fight For the truth that has been hidden from us Locked in a safe The key lost without a trace Today is not the way Nor was yesterday But tomorrow could be And thats ok We will see past all the walls that have been constructed Obstructing the visions of the future We must stand We must hold true to who and what we are We are the creatures of Mother Earth We are the key to life beyond birth We can be the savior everyone deserves We just need a little help Everything can be right Everything can be sane If we all stand together And walk between the w indow panes As a single answer One consciousness One heart Infinite love Now is the time to start From the very depths of our consciousness Within these precisely tiled rooms We live among things And we dream about doom "When will the clock say something different?" I asked, still waiting for the answer "When will we all realize that time is forever?” And what we do with the time Is not What we do is not important What we do is irrelevant If all we are doing is blocking out the light to our eyes Hoping that one day we will hold our heads high Above the ashes of our past disaster Then it does matter what you do But what do we do? When only questions exist What do we do? When only time is the answer Can anything change? Can we change anything? Is whatever were doing What we should be doing? What should we do? Today children we will climb We will climb to the highest peaks of our minds We will let our worries be free And our desires will be lost at sea Fold your fears into books leave them on the shelf Deconstruct the structure we've been told To a be the truth It's getting old Rewrite the stories of the universe Starting with you And me Transcending to a new breath we breathe Tell them we are strong Tell them we are brave Show them we can do anything The world only tells lies when you do Fairytales are only fiction because we say so Don't let them tell us our dreams are unreachable Don't let them tell us our goals are unscorable We will beat them We will love them We will conquer the fears left from their mayhem We already have And we always will Let it be your thrill Live life how its suppose to be Live life as in the dreams you wish to seek Let them be Let it be Let him be Let her be Let the world breathe deep With lungs filled Let everyone grow into the mountainous tree They are meant to be Let it be known that rules don’t apply I understand You are afraid of the secrets that they hide But don’t be Don’t let them win Don’t let them begin again Shower them with love Wipe them clean with care Let them know w e are here And we are not scared

To be is, Not needing to explain yourself to others Your actions are enough for the blissfully confused To be is, Drawing a picture not of something or a place you know But a place you wish to be and go To be is, Selling all of your cloths to a second hand store Not to buy more But To live more To be is, Running because you want to Not because you feel the social obligation to To be is, Climbing a tree because you want to see To be is, Falling down because you want to feel To be is, Speaking because you have something to say To be is, Breathing because we have no other way

to be is
Everyone is here Every step of the way Every single motion Can be seen through two eyes Not sold Not heard And not seen We can Be something Be one thing Be happy Make money So we can So we have So we feel Don't let them Everyone is here Every ONE is here Every step of the way Can be clear Every single motion Towards the next destination Can be seen through two eyes Not covered by our hands Not sold For the best price on demand Not heard Through bullet proof glass, And not seen Through water when it makes a splash We can Be anything Be something Your good at Be one thing Your ok with Be happy Live simply Make money Sacrifice is necessary   So we can Work for 50% of our lives So we have A house to watch our shows especially every night So we feel Safe because it's quite Don't let them Be defiant

Until the moon tips over Spilling sober off the cliffs her mind Bringing back what was thought of as the dilation of time Subtle her face doesn't change But traces the faint image of quite the opposite of pain She seems to fly more than usual Even the clouds can't hold her from being the fluttering bird she was born to be From the tips of her toes to the tops of the trees Jenny is love She is my everything

I write letters to the ones that matter To the ones that care Even passing on a flight of stairs I look She looks Our lives could be words in a story book I read her face She reads mine A poet wouldn’t believe how much we rhyme I hold her She holds me I wonder if this is all dream Each page of mine intwined in hers As we fall asleep until our yet to be written verse

With words to describe my jenny There's not many Not enough to explain the feeling she makes As we wake Just ourselves into this new dreamality we have created for us And others we soon will love and trust In my letters to jenny I write with what I can With the words that are closest Because forever isn't enough When you're the one I love

Shed from the earth, Searching for a greater dividing factor of  Soliloquies between diligent rapture Understood, expectations, relinquish, your citations Benevolent destruction, and omniscient revelations  Calamity, onto infamy, delegated, by a single floating leaf Entropy without linear symmetry, involves, nothing but bigotry  For go selective, simplicity, underestimating the unknown, killing spree Damnation, to call upon humanity, sad to say, to end is such a way

To End In Such A Way
I love you more and more As you pour and pour  With tiny tap shoes I like to listen I hope for you when you are gone I miss you when I am lonely I can’t go on without your voice while its storming There is something about the way you talk to me like I matter Not just to flatter me Say you love me when I say it first I wish you would never leave If forever were as real as the love that we share September will not be as long and I would no longer care I hear you have to go even though it has only been a few Just don't waste time returning to me soon

I held too firm to the ones that loved just a piece of me,  Never all of me.  At least not all at once Linking my feelings to the ones that aren’t so dear to me,  Just for the chance to feel something real and breathe Just once. I never understood why sitting alone felt so lonely In a crowd of people that seemed to know me I Just listen 6 month, 7  days, 2 hours, and 8 minutes I have dinner ready,  As I sit at this table for one, lunging at my food, as if it were almost gone Its getting worse Seeing faces is more difficult than ever,  Just severed lines between now and forever Its colder than I remember Twice a week, Id speak,  Clear my throat,  Take a pill,  Fall asleep And Dream for weeks In my bedroom,  I held too firm  The rope tied to the ledge next to my bed  Seconds later before my death I feel warm again

Borrow
All these people with there painted faces Relaying images of there favorite places Completely disillusioned by the fact that were all still alive Though we strive for a greater goal it seems to be fruitless to the thought of growing old  Together we will stand We fight for our freedom, divided by the cost of ones wallet Call it what you may, but if you were like me, you would sit and pray for one day everything will change I know it may be thought of as strange Just don’t turn the page before you've read it first I know your thirsty my friend But the end depends on you and what time you decide to spend
