Feeling over tired
unable to keep awake
I go to my bedroom
My eyes burning

When my head meets pillow
Now my eyes are closed

I can't sleep

My mind races and I can't relax.
I shiver in the darkness and my nose is cold.
I stare at a screen, thumbs poised to pounce,
Maybe you think this conversation is getting old.

I can't sleep now.

As a jingle rings in the silence
My heart thumps out...

Where do you rest your head at night?
Is it beside hers on one pillow so you can hold her?
Does she pull the sheets away from you so that you are cold?

A song the radio I couldn't help quote
Parachute, oh Parachute, please forgive me I had to
I love the melody, the message and it made me wonder so intently
who is this she that is love 
Is she near or far
could she be sitting next to me...

Sitting in the front seat of a rustic truck,
whose paint has seen more thunderstorms 
than my skin has years,
you look so still,
like a porcelain doll,
with the fading light of the tired sky
casting its blue blankets over both our eyes.

Through the pitter-patter 
as raindrops splatter on...

Safely Fall Asleep

America I am so glad has been
With me through thick and then
Sandy shore was weather beaten 
Bright morning me was greeting.

Mountains with snow peak to peak
And her great beauty always seek
While it was waiting there for me
No better place can possibly be.

With my...

Waking up in swirls of gold,
Relax and let my dreams take hold.
Silk of crimson, skin of ice,
Something strange, but don’t look twice.

Many clocks give many times,
Random words give many rhymes,
Bed of chocolate, sea of cream,
But don’t jump if I hear a scream.

Rabbit leaps around a...

Wake up America, 
Arise from your slumber
Media has desensitized your minds
We live in a new world of technology that has made you colorblind
Meaningless, with deeper meaning
Music lyrics have been subconsciously stealing
While you think it’s the beat you are feeling
Listen to the words and then tell...

Holdin on to the last piece of my heart 

Keep your eyes open even when it's dark

You stole a part of me and tried to give it back

But I thought I saw the light right before the crack

I don't want what you have to offer;...

Little boy blue don't be so sad
You're my joy it can't be that bad?

Come put your horn down and sit with me,
Your smile is soothing and will comfort me

Then we'll look into each other's eyes and treasure
our moments time will not always provide

Little boy blue...

when you fall asleep
let one eye stay awake
that when danger approaches
it can be a witness

when you fall asleep
let one arm stay active
that when a robber comes
it can defend the body

when you fall asleep
let one ear stay alert
that when someone whispers 
it can hear the secrets

It only took one night.
It only took one small sentence to unravel the bind that held her from humanity,
And release herself into life, and into the fire.

This was coming for so long, as these star crossed souls could not be kept apart forever.
Fate could not...
