Sunken Sandals
Senselessly, you talk
You ramble on...ears do bleed
Listen to the heart stomps
Thoughtlessly, you think
You smell the stench of ancient Dust and sand...it sinks
Into your nostrils
Suddenly, a change of mind
Buds into forced change
Consideration
Is what you don't have right now
Gained recognition
You'll gain back your pride
As long as confidence rules
Get humility!
Good qualities rust
You kicked me into the dust
Bust good moves - a mist
Stolen sensation
Don't worship vain gods, just Him
Revealed sullen feet
Barefoot to the core
Cats don't have 9 lives, but more
Carve your eyes on trees
Feline fleas bite me,
Sucking up the bitter blood
Innocent, good blood
Not bad boy gone good
I have done so many wrongs...
~~~Drifting away-ay~~~
Press your paw prints here
Match it up with my sandals,
Sullen like my cheeks
I turn the other cheek,
Knowing that my bodyquake
Ain't on fleek...fooled geek...
Jerk, nerd, geek, turd, dumb -
Those insults don't mean a thing
Some terms above - smart!
Friends are on a ship
But, it rocks back and forward -
Kicking off sandals,
The waves carry them
Instead of float, they sunk...ah!
The shore is no more
We transported stuff
From wild sea to reckless sea
We trade and give up
Barrels of wheat grain
And buckets and buckets of...
Gold that never sinks
Topics and subjects
Changed in a blink of an I
Eye still hear my ex,
E-e-Echoing
Through the blasted breeze of please...
Look at these paw prints
Tend a gorgeous garden...
You're observing these details;
At last, seeing truth !
