Covering Your Tracks

Rationalizing a lie
is like trying to 
cover your tracks
in the snow

Only more snow
can truly cover
your tracks

Only honesty
can cover the
marks your
lie has made
on a heart

Mediateness

Ah! 'Life Stands And Delivers'
What about this!?
Rationalizing is in between stinginess and squandering
With respect to mediateness.
Bravery is in between cowering and recklessness
Tolerance is in between …
And so on.

Dawn

like the excitement of returning
to your home town
and the disappointment
and realization
that the people
you really wanted to see
have made it out
and the people you see
are the ones who never did
still hanging out
in the same places
still offering
the same argument
still rationalizing
their fate
in life

The Stalker

Taking away your peace of mind
Hunting you down everywhere
Every move you make is mine
Stealthily moving in the shadows
Thoughts of tying you up linger
Allowing escalation of my heartbeat
Looking for the right words
Killer instincts secretly penned
Even among the grey matter
Rationalizing fear, the brain is the stalker

Evolution

Lizard Brain begins
to approach pleasure
and avoid pain
awakening a hypocampus
for safety
within the herd.
Slowly snapses fire
to begin thinking,
growing human,
rationalizing ... 
surely it must be
the neocortex
to overcome and become
Angel Brain
(in order to finally see
the big picture)
as a persistent
Lizard Brain
crawls around
the halo.

Rogue

thought that I was in control
my mind manipulates my heart
now it seems my heart went rogue 
and struck out on its own

guess it got tired of being held back
being told what it should feel
the fantasies my mind could hide
the dreams that all seemed real

now I'm in a quandary
I don't know which to trust
a mind constantly rationalizing
or a heart ready to combust
