Grimacing faces
With teary-eyed composure
Look out together
At their capped and gowned daughter,
Happy, yet sad, both know why.

We drove crime and it made us mean
But now we appear more serene
Without exposure
Global composure
Improved with lead free gasoline

My whole being is like a drain,
Feelings drip in and out again,
Though my composure I maintain,
It's hard to stand such painless pain.

Ceaseless Swan song a symphony of sadness.
Counter to composure comes cacophony of chorus.
Oscillating operatic overture of Opus.

Distance

Are we not all
The night sky for our atoms,
A brilliant display for our elements,
A grace for our composure?
All are vivid; All are rich,
But as with any star,
Dimmer with distance.

One's At Peace State

For its composure of mind
One's at peace state
Of all quiets most felt
Angel-wrapped in.

Hang, as in your memory
Whose image of.
Life unto death's staunchest
Anxious-warding.

Premium Member Jet

Like Mozart’s Cherubino, I know nothing of love
but I am waiting on the runway, idling like a jet
I am burning my composure
I am inviting trouble
I have hidden gifts
and a steely will

Stockpile

stockpile 
within the 
storehouse 
of the mind 
of emotional
supplies 
a range of 
tricks used 
as a reserve 
for when things 
go a stray in order 
to keep composure 
in tacked

now sunless days on automatic pilot
skies from greys to blues to violet
feigning composure while on edge
he dances nonchalantly on a ledge

Could It Be Too Much To Say

Reckless desire midst the lack of composure in words

I'm lost in an infinitely vernacular coloristic state of bliss

Where words are seen only in the primaries

As I see you in you in colors that don't exist

Virgo

Virginal composure sits judgment on life
Introspective awareness dispenses advice
Righteous and lawful, all wording concise
Grounded and centred declining all vice
Objective perspective but still very nice.

Can anyone say Uranus without grinning Regaining composure, restart from the beginning Don't know what's so funny It's a planet, you dummies True, it reminds us of one's bum and need for singing

Dead Stop

dead stop 
got of track 
got tripped up
forgot what 
was the reason 
for it all
was not able to 
regain composure 
all was for not 
the momentum 
was lost 
standing here in a 
constant state of 
confusion
Form: Lyric
