Knowing **** well what we need
Not an ounce of normality
Oh, heavy heavenly gravity
Drawn to embracing melodies
And I’ve never really wanted much
Yet, I still see it in my sleep
Even with the lights out
I can’t find it here with me
Peace

I write of the seas a lot
It’s cause they still steal my breath away
To be honest they terrify me
They encase the ideas of freedoms
I haven’t known
For I am so ever trapped
Within my mind
Longing to be lost out at sea
On a sunny day
With no where calling my name
Pulling me to land
Looking for peace

Maybe we’re our own pantheon
Just you and I
Destruction and Creation
Filling the midnight skies
With ****** light
Scorching bed sheets and burning seas
Intertwined in all these things
What comes to mind?
When we lay side by side

She tried to sing me to sleep
As the tides rolled further in
Kissing the beach
Just to leave in the middle of the night
When the night sky has had its fill
Of moonlit madness chased with whiskey
And our dreams are high on different colored pills and drunk off sleepless words

There's an invisible line
Where the waves conspire
To come rushing back again
And perhaps we shall meet again someday
A long long time from now
A little older
And a little less selfish
Vinnie Brown Jun 2018
The world’s not so subjective
It’s just so critical
And we’re falling a part at the seams
When yesterday’s sins
Are tomorrow’s dreams
Running in never-ending circles
Pushed along with unbalanced chemicals
Skin stained with glorified imperfections
When the secrets tiptoe around your name
While the rain clouds are catching up
On our run for sunshine
Oh, what it means to be human
