Sniffing powdered white off my nannas vintage mirror
My inheritance,
My dignity gone
Nannas old, she's dying
Told me stories about the fairies in her head
Dancing her to sleep each night
Would dance upon my head ....

Love
I lay awake at night
thank god for my life
and the stars for their light
I look to the morning star and pray
God give me strength to put down this knife
protect my girl, keep her safe and okay
this girl is my sin
One day to be my wife
the girl who I pray will let me in
so dear god, dear stars and the moon
protect my girl, let her get through this strife
keep her safe and okay so that I may see her soon.

Quiet walks
Along the shore rocks
Waiting for a call
Just behind the seaweed wall

Turquoise shimmer
Dark shadows flicker
Candlelit meeting
For the one thing I've been needing

My legs become one
As I drift into the waters
Following one of Triton's daughters
Plummeting into the sea

But our time becomes limited
And back to the shore I drifted
Watching her slip away
Telling me come every other day

Looking out into the horizon's wefts
Begging God, "five minutes, please"
Love sunken with the memories
As she floats back into the oceans depths

I'm word dribbling my own vision
My vision of a non conformist
Sleeping in the mud
A sign of peace and love
This man is being beaten with his own shoes, what shoes ?!
His dying from madness
Is anyone there ?!!!
Humans they see ,but just they sit and watch
Blood and tears
They soak it up, they love it
They feed off it but enough is enough
Tunnel vision is all I see, on a mission to what ?
Slavery ? To join the herds of sheep that pass my way ?
No we can't
We need our say!!!!

As she cut she squirmed
Not as tough as she thought
Indecent minds alike
Shh just don't get caught
Just leave your ******* soaking in the **** between his teeth
Let him walk over you
Just like he did to me.
