If silence was a language— I’d speak it for you. Words can’t replace the feeling, inside this beautiful turmoil— the uncertainty of the storm, as I sit centered and calm, patient with silence, keeping faith— a caged bird, refusing to leave; a stray dog, waiting at the crossing. I’ve started falling into your embrace, the only harbor I wish for to see the end of days.

Catch me, I'm falling

If silence was a language— I’d speak it for you. Words can’t replace the feeling, inside this beautiful turmoil— the uncertainty of the storm, as I sit centered and calm, patient with silence, keeping faith— a caged bird, refusing to leave; a stray dog, waiting at the crossing. I’ve started falling into your embrace, the only harbor I wish for to see the end of days.

I try swimming in the deep end Y Am I kidding When I can barely crawl? Aim high to feel low Shoot for the stars; I'm somewhat moronic hypochondriac psychotic asthmatic Can you tell by the scars I've drawn on And my masochistic vehicle? Got a list of what I'm tryna do Tryna reach my goals; An exaggeration of my fragmented mind onethingtwothingthreebacktoonethingbecauseIcantforgetonething My perilous thoughts. No concentration makes for just conversation In that I lose myself

A thing is a thing, isn’t a thing What makes a thing, a thing? Is a thing, a thing because We call it A thing? What then of things that Haven’t found a name? Does discovery make A thing? Then who made us A thing Can a thing Make a thing a thing? Light is a thing I see it Fragrance is a thing I smell it Music is a thing I hear it Dark is a thing No thing Is not having a thing make A thing? is a no thing, a thing? Is Love A thing?

Every good thing, Lord, comes Every good thing comes from you Every day is showered in blessings Every morning your graces are new Every night you watch over us Lord, keep us safe from harm Every thing I have is from you Every thing I am is who you are Every beat of my heart beats for you Without your love I fall apart So when life is only clouds and rain And all I can feel is sorrow and pain Give me the eyes to see your rainbow Give me hope and help me to grow For, in the ultimate act of derision Came a far more perfect vision You took the cross designed for shame And made a bridge out of the same In death you destroyed sin and death And in the span of the very next breath You restored us to life and made all things new For, every good thing Lord, comes from you

Look out, across time, go windborn in our mind being, look out, into the depths of ever being, rethink the processes time used, reimagine the silence at the moment. All for us to have our own being in, confined in common sense of the we the one we of us since ever was a time, before now, and later, still, this same concurrency of events… our crossing point in time. Instants of peaceable knowing, growing into states of conscious knowing use.

You love me, But I don't love you, I love him, But he doesn't love me. What goes around, comes back around. I guess I deserve that, I stabbed you in your back, And look he has done the same, All I have is shame. What goes around, comes back around. You gave me everything, I gave you something, He gave me nothing, And I gave him everything.
