Letter to AlcoholLETTER TO ALCOHOL
Ingested poison
Ingested pain
Ingested hurt
Constant rain
Consumptions of an illusion,
Bruised, Bitter, and Broken.
Ingested false realities and Trumas never spoken
Secrets within the eyes hidden behind a smile
Ingested loss of self gone for miles and miles and miles
I allowed you Jack to plot with Daniel
Jose to lead me astray
And Johnny to walk me...

A BeaucidyIn memories
I can remember
The gardener
Whose love
I cannot stop
Despite her
String cutting
Through transferring
A book domain
And she leaves me
Here wallowing alone
And I say I would love us
To live as twain
But she speaks not
To my words magnificence
And I find myself in a puzzling point
She comes from a flowery family
And I come from a wilted one
She gets...

Thought Twice, You Still Ain't RightBob Dylan's Song: "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"
Suze's Response: "Thought Twice, You Still Ain't Right"
Verse 1
You stitched up your pride in a travelin’ song
Said the road don’t lie, so you moved along
But the truth don’t rhyme when the reason’s wrong
And a record deal don’t keep you warm
Verse 2
You made me a mom, but would't...

still caught in MayMay is the season of Rain
droplets of soft note
tapping rhythm into my coat
tip— tap. tip— tap.
she walks with me and starlight
for a silent talk midnight
May is the season of Rain
I watch her dance
as sun sinks beneath the fence—
tip— tip— ...

You Didn't Want MeYou didn't want to help me reassemble
The puzzle pieces of my broken heart.
You didn't want to see how we resemble
A couple turning the page for a new start....

FreedomThe say we are free but, our is hearts is at consciousness.
Thou mind is travelling the universe looking for freedom.
Hope is lost through the environment.
Our hearts are playing with fire, thou hateness is among us.
Why the colour of our skin try to define us.
Why our souls can't live with peace where freedom is available.
Hope...

Just One Thing to Leverage
She believed her Barbie's and Ken's
had shared a love far more complex
than any feelings they'd expressed --
AND dolls couldn't even self-dress!!!
She knew they were a mistake -
one she wanted them to address.
Her thoughts led to a request -
they both take a fear of change test.
Pleased to speak free, she confessed
being a part...

every kissWe kissed at the movies
We kissed in my home
We kissed on your bed
When we were all alone
We kissed in the hallways
Where no one would stare
We kissed at my front door
With my parents right there
We kissed in the cold
Love struck under stars
You held my hand tight
As we waited for our cars
And you kissed me while we...

You Left Me BreathlessYou left me breathless,
When you walked away,
You stole the air straight from my lungs,
When you broke my heart that day.
You left me breathless,
When your words were spoken,
You drowned me on dry land,
When your promise to me was broken.
You left me breathless,
When you did what you said you wouldn’t do,
Your words choked me,
Until I turned blue.

TAKE BACK DECEMBER(Verse 1)
I remember the chill in the air,
When you said goodbye, like you didn’t care.
Your words cut deep, left me bare,
But I stayed silent, pretending I was fine.
You walked away, said you needed space,
That freedom would bring you back to grace.
But in your eyes, I saw a trace
Of something we couldn’t leave behind.
(Pre-Chorus)
I thought I’d...

4 YearsI waited for you for 4 years,
Waited for you to love me,
4 years of the best friendship,
But I wanted more than that.
After 4 years of waiting,
You told me you loved me,
But after one month of dating,
You told me goodbye....

No One Like You(NOTHING COMPARES 2 U - PRINCE SONG)
1) Time has stopped still
I've lost my will
To feel alive
Life can go on
But there's no dawn
No, there's no jive
Chorus:
You were my inspiration
My heartbeat's sole fixation
Now life has lost all appeal
I sing but with no more zeal
For there is no one like you
I have found no one like you
None...
