Living

Let's recapture the days we had
Go back in time to find who we were back then,where we went wrong and how we got here.
Let's try to attempt loving again
Let's try to attempt living cautiously this time.
Only knowing this time we'd be wiser
But what's life if you're not living it unknown?
Where's the thrill of the chase?
What's life knowing allthe short cuts and better ends.
When we came into this world we were given life unexpectedly
That is why we're always expecting the unexpected.
Its part of living
And that's why we need to make good choices now
What we do now will echo in enternity
And will remain at a thousand forevers
So no,let's not go back in time
We just need to live life unknown That's living!
That's life!

Wax artistic

scar
She wants to wax artistic
Her audience so rapt
Are watching every movement
As something in her snaps.

She raises up the scalpel
Her canvas takes the brunt
Of artistry in temper,
Of truth she daren't confront.

Her pencil lead stabs slowly
In repetition bland
It draws out lines, it stabs out points
Misguided by her hand.

She lifts her palette higher
As red ink starts to dash
Down lines made by the pencil
On the canvas she has slashed.

She's showing her life story
For she knows no words to say
What the horrors are that taunt her,
Flaunt her, haunt her every day.

She spills a can of petrol,
She lights a tiny match
And down her canvas one last time
Her fingernails scratch.

She throws it in the fire
And she dances round the flames
Crying, screaming and repeating:
"My life story I disclaim!"

Never had a chance to hold
to be held, or to be told
Never had a chance to say
and soon you will be far away
All the things I'll never know
I must find a way to let them go

Good Vibes

I woke up today with
a deep appreciation for being alive.
Somehow the air smells fresher,
the sun feels warmer,
the coffee is less bitter.
The universe is radiating
all these good vibes

The best rain
Is the rain touching somebody
who's been stuck in bed for over a month
pouring through the open window

pouring right into her heart
