Our my Schade
As recently as this
Father's Day Sunday
Sent me a message
Saying to my
Honorary Dad
Although I don't and am unable
to say it
I hope you know you are my
Honorary Dad
And because of our family history
I instantaneously both assumed and
also presumed
She was indeed in fact obviously
talking about my father her grandad
She looked after when he was dying
And she was a very young child
And as our conversation gradually
continued
She later and myself also said
Life is pretty simple its mostly all about
Paying attention and listening
And case in point I unfortunately
Provided her with undeniable proof
That I sadly myself whilst talking
a good game was not
Because when it comes to me
I quite obviously have a blind spot
But that does not get me off the hook
Or is in any way or form
A valid or genuine
Excuse
If anything it just proves
The point
I am no more better
But should as obviously does expect
Than from her own Dad
Evoke flames of amber and amethyst
may happiness adorn the future
give the minutes a short break
and the mind a couple of hours
forget the flight of the hourglass
- have things to complete later
a shoreless sea of toil and hustle

LATER ON WE WILL LIVE TO THE GLORY-
To the glory, to the glory
We will receive more glory
When He comes
Though we may suffer now
We may suffer now here on earth
We have His word
Yet what we suffer now
There is nothing compared to the glory
To the glory
To the glory
He my God will reveal to us later.
Even tho we may suffer now
When Jesus parts the skies
In a twinkling of an eye
To the glory
To the glory
We have His word
Yet what we suffer now
Yet what we suffer now
There's nothing compared
To the glory He will reveal to us later

Romans 8:18
Socially unorganized, I place critics down a size
Standing with preferred confidence gave me insight
Partially adapted from the root of fear
I sometimes hear my inner voice remarking that my time is near
Position to overcome challenging courses
By altering our contained nature to make stronger choices
Often at the mill I witness the loud of noises
I either adjust or continue breathing in the poison and drown in my salty ocean
Maybe tears can be manufactured through happy times
Is it weird I fake my laughter through your own surprises
Some may question my ability to think and process
I reveal the sources to my brightened conscience
Assemble the many gears we set in stone
Ever wonder what's it's like to be thrown?
My past creates a memory lane for me to see
I rather improve my empathy willing to still believe
In love with a spirit because I glance swiftly while there is no in sight
Passport to find true family as I hunch over my seat, in hopes to discover actual happiness during a safe flight
Drop it, or say later on
My way say do right on
I do not need night
I need day long
I know her vision
I need destination
I am looking horizon
For her rise
Her appear trust of heart
Her wings make fly so high
Her dream and my imagination
Spreading wings to fly so high
I am with dream of her heart
Trying to make dead thing alive
She so goddess and unique peace of art
She inspire I do fallow just her desire

For the last seven years I've had a buddy
I call him “Later-On-Ron”
Became good friends much later in life
Never known a tighter bond
Could even go years without seeing Ron
Nothing would change I know
A friend like him happens once in a lifetime
Going on like a great river flows
A friendship that no matter how we feel
Just seems never ever to falter
At this advanced stage in both of our lives
A friendship nothing can alter
We see each other on Wednesday evenings
On our regular Euchre night
It's enough to keep our friendship alive
Through our ferocious Euchre fight
So three cheers for my good buddy Ronald
If I move many miles away
I'll always remember “Later-On-Ron”
I think of my friend every day
For the last seven years I've had a buddy
I call him “Later-On-Ron”

There is a single rose
kept high in the vase of her memories
she eyes thee rose with despair and sorrow
circles around and walks away.
The rose withers and petals fall
she comes back but has the same thought.
Picks up the withering rose, she starts to dance
circles around and around with the rose balanced in her palm.
-she stops-
she starts to cry and she sees streaks of blood fall from her palm
the thorns dig deep
her tears reach her collar
darkness falls, then drags her deep in it's depths.
Sorry for leaving you at the bar
I lied and said I forgot something in my car
But the stuff you say when you're coked
Makes me look and feel like a joke
You're a grown man and know what you're doing
Always saying you know me through and
Through all the years I'll finally admit
I'm still a child who throws passive fits
We need to just leave 'cause I just can't take it
Countless nights where I just couldn't fake it
I've got to say this, oh god, I have to
This time I'll lay it all out in front of you
I can't love you anymore and no there's not
Someone else 'cause I know that's what you thought
At first but I've gotta stay righteous
And for the next one in line, I've already learned from us
So he and I will be fine and I'll think back on you
I'll remember the little things I'd do
Just to keep us standing on our jagged edge
And I'd eaten every word you have fed
Me and take it into mind to never fall
For a badfish 'cause their minds are too small
They're easy to catch when you've got so much bait
They'll love you but make you wait and wait and wait
and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait..
Yes, later on
we will dance
and perhaps
see stars overhead
Does it matter
That we sing here on earth?
I think it does!
Yes, and the lights from over the bridge
are shining
as they have been shining for the past one hundred years
If we can "catch the Wind" as Donovan put it
we will feel safe
and not sorry
Ready to deal with
Whatever the future has in store for us
Right now
I feel a bit empty inside
May be because Bonnie is not at my place
And I cant see her outside
And right now
I would love to be intimate and near
But beyond reason
I see that all the answers are clear
So why don’t I get myself a right now girl
Be able to feel the pleasure
And put her toes in a curl
Its because I know my later on
Is not close but our bond is on
And knowing later on
That we can get it on
Like meet me at a place
Feel love when I see her face
No more questions of
What time to be on myspace
So my right now
Is later on
Because later on
The right now
Is gone
