Baby, just take a sec
Put everything down
Look me deep in my eyes
Block out all of the sounds around
Let our souls intertwine
Don't be afraid
Weve loved one another
Since the beginning of days
Keep getting lost
In eachothers eyes
Breathe in real deep
Let out a deeper sigh
Know that I'm yours
For eternity & longer
Let our souls take over
N help one another grow stronger
You no longer have to be afraid
There will be no more pain
We have so much love in our hearts
Let them guide us,
Instead of these human brains

Midst his playfulness,
I could find gracefulness;
Midst pugnacity,
Great amicability;
Bravery wrapped in fear,
Foolishness enveloped cheer;
He chased rats and cats,
And humans he thought burglars;
His irritability outwitted sociability,
Aggressiveness withstood passivity;
Seeming treachery,
Couldn’t hide his loyalty;
It’s hence when he died for me,
To protect me from an accident to be;
Words like defender or Savior,
I found, could never define his behavior...

HOPE MANIFESTED
Bottles, hidden in cabinets
Hangover, can you imagine?
Bending knees, praying hands.
A glance of hope
Another chance
Selfishness tried to drown me.
Truth manifested
Now love surrounds me
A lost soul; found.
One day at a time
Without getting high
Is a priceless gift.
Transformed, sober minded
A soul lost, rebirthed in light
Future filled with possibilities.

That bottle of liqour putting you to the test
Your inner demons starting to manifest
Your no longer in control your bodies running a muck
Straight evil in your veins not giving a f#ck
That gaurdian angel gets muted out
Your demons have it in a choke hold unable to shout
It struggles and fights ,shouting out ,trying to scream
But your mind is all warped like a nightmarish dream
This is your manifestation your truly to blame
Let them have there fun as they cascade you in shame
They will dance and play, fill you up with desires
They will beat on your spirit till it's weakened and tires
Demons in a bottle and you swallowed them whole
You've drowned out all reasoning now there in control

Bleached and burnt
in the Summer sun,
I flop about in the cracks
that ripple like rays
made jagged by fanciful
expectations diverted.
My tongue smacks parched,
bloated and raw against
the fish-bone grate taunting--
that yellow-thatched roof
at the apex of gluttony
and guttural projections.
Language distills down
to a series of random
cliques and ticks praising
mundane worship in material
delicate by design to frustrate
and ensure further consumption
at the troth of the heathens,
unaware of the vast difference
between orders and gifts,
until knees bend under
the pressure of the heavens
demanding substance in life.
