Shockwave of Love
The impact of your love shook my world, rattled my very foundations, and rearanged the stars in the firmament of my soul. Like a supernova, your love exsploded in my consciousness, illuminating the dark corners of my soul and casting a fierce glow upon the path ahead. It was a catastrophic event, a cataclysmic love that sent shockwaves through my being, altering the landscape of my heart forever...!
There once was a sadness
that lived deep in my soul
It was there as long as I remember
I called it my "BLUE HOLE"
Some days it was empty
and left me alone
I could function and try to be normal
hardly any sadness was shown
Some days it would sneak up
and surprise me with despair
I'd feel so hopeless and cry so hard
I'd suddenly find myself gasping for air
At times I could manage
the impending doom it would bring
Other times I'd wonder why
to this life I would cling
As life went by
day in and day out
I started to wonder
what this BLUE HOLE was all about
So I sat down and thought
about how I could change
The way it effected me
and have my mood rearanged
I decided to fight
this mental enemy so mean
I'd block it's controlling taunts
with the help of a machine
It's called Neuro-Feedback
look it up if you haven't heard
It's changed my life
without saying a single word

Fade To Black
torture
rearanged in the sofa
let out to reach over
the laughter in vigilance to raise ya
push the pillows over your head
filled with love on this tender of days
relax then bask in the vast expanse with torture within
help you city strength
lock horns
blizzard
more to come
a system to run
share of writing then the quarter to approach,
count to ten
lucky friend
lift up the seat
good cause to pee
all of life is but a mystery
can't you collect your thoughts the change for all to see
come to the banquet
time to move with each other
brother to brother
in the heat of action
proclamation
he took me by the throat,
well intending to make me choke,
and as she took him by the hand,
i was lost trying to understand.
when i glanced into his eyes,
I quickly seen the hurt, the lies,
his hidden heart, i tried to find,
but all i found was a bad desguise.
And as i undid the knots hes tied,
i know inside, hes not worth the time,
Eventualy ill have to be fine,
Cause I know he'll never be mine.
I realized then how much he's changed
and how things with us just rearanged,
across the room, i sit and stare,
But once again, he's not all there.
