Come back to the refuge; Lets take a trip inside. No shadow can see you here, the perfect place to hide. Come back to the refuge, the largest space of all. Theres room for all your hopes and dreams, so you can bring them all. Come back to the refuge, there's power you can find; Silence is the kingdom, lost somewhere behind your mind. Come back to the refuge, the great ones wait for you; Through white light to fields of green, and skies the bluest blue; Come back to the refuge, i know its been a while; But time's a lie so please dont sigh, just come back with a smile! Come back to the refuge, do you still know the way? Let go of thinking without any effort, and sit like that all day. Come back to the refuge, put down those heavy bags! The present is a gift, it doesnt matter how its wrapped. Come back to the refuge, the journey is alone; But once your near, youl feel me here; because the refuge is my home... Signed - HIGHER SELF.
A handfull of it
Wont buy a pint
Wether its milk
Or beer, even a coffee
Black or flat white.
A handfull of it
May jingle and clank
Wont buy a chunk of wood,
Not even bus fare
Certainly not a full plank.
A handfull of change
Cant help you arrange
A taxi ride to take you home
Change can be many things
wont buy, a meaty stew bone.
So keep the change held tight
Dont make a change in the night
You wont need to change at all
Maybe youl need to just sit and see
That changes not needed effect you and me
These memories will never go away,
That girl has my soul and my heart she stole.
Burdens i carry, haunt me to this day,
It seems that even love, will take its toll.
I tried and tried to make her stay
But now my heart has this whole
I fall apart at night, lost in moonlight,
waiting for the sun to come reignite
Il put my pain in these words and hope it never returns
I'm disgusted at myself and all of my habits
I'm still trying to heal from all of lifes burns
But im stuck here with my empty medicine cabinets
I feel the earth in rotation , as it slowly turns
My heart races looking at you, we are like rabbits
I learned over time that nothing lasts forever
Like a moment lost in time that youl always treasure
These memories will never go away;
That girl has my soul and my heart she stole.
Burdens i carry haunt me to this day;
It seems that even love will take its toll
I remember , she looked me in the eye;
I learned right then nothing lasts forever.
She turned around and never said goodbye;
Like a moment that youl always treasure.
Il look at the stars that cirlce round mars;
Waiting for the sun to come reignite.
Il try and find the beauty in my scars;
While getting lost each night in the moonlight.
My pain's in words , hope it never returns,
Il try and go heal from all of ifes Burns.

And try to go and heal from all of lifes burns.
I look at up the stars that circle round mars
while I try to remember , There's beaut
Don't tell me you care
When you don't
Don't tell me youl be there
When you won't
Don't let my heart fall
If you won't catch me
Don't say you will call
If you don't even see
Don't tell me I'm yours only
If you cannot love me
Don't you see
What your doing to me
You awaken my fire inside
But yet you hide
You don't want to tell me how you feel
So I question in my head is this real
Or am I dreaming of a love
That dosent exist
It's hard to resist
When it's all my heart longs for
I know I shouldn't want more
But I do
It's true
I fell in love with you
Somewhere between the chaos and the things you do
My heart stood no chance
I just want to be on a beach and us under the stars have s dance
So it's only us in the world st that moment
And I know that your mine
When the pale moon light shines
I don't know what to say
To get you to speak to me today
But this much is true
I love you
a couple of years have past since it began...
another poem to send an amen
this one...full of regret and confusion..
when it all began she was part of the story
but i blocked her from it. she left me in a wake of mourning
the day it happened i always wondered why it began with the whole.
romeo and juliet conclusion...and yin yang symbol.
took 2 whole years to figure out why. 2!
if it wasnt for that angel i would have never remembered her...
it was to painful.
my eyes fill with tears every time i think about it.
she didnt believe i existed......
a spear to the heart. but we had that conversation before i even released my ..destiny i guess.
but im on my way. Another try and Hope.
Tay....i dont know everything but my Hope is that youl see me as i Am...
the White to your Black just as you are my black to my White.
a burden il carry. and with its weight i might be buried.
but i wont give up on something i cant see....but what i feel
and i need you to know...just how real
i pray and wheep as i kneel
something beacons me
and so shall i sail.
You cant make a home out of humans,
My life is not a fire to keep you warm
My arms arent walls to protect you
From your own internal storm
My heart is not a light switch,To turn on when you please
I cant carry your weight of neglect because il buckle at the knees
My legs are a solid foundation,But they not yours on which to build
The holes in my heart can fit both of us,But you cant decide how they filled
You cant make a home out of humans,I wont let you in if you just knocked
And if you keep using my heart as a doormat,The next time youl find that its locked
ill give you knowledge
sit up now and listen
here we go release of mission
existing poems are all we got
theres no prescription there are lot
be a critc read and write
dont be afraid to call halt to butchers plight
rhym it well avoid obvious conclusions
or suffer readers mental contusions
be unique make words your own
but give em life, heart and soul
use words to paint inside your head
then sneeze out the picture you have read
do not write vulgar in red or bold
let it walk its own test road
add not unnecesary stops and quotations
dont butcher classic with fraudulent mutations
how does it read does it vibe and flow
if it ties the tounge the heart wont go
enhance your speak and be well read
what else to do in marital bed?
write strait from you but dont write strait
use words as clues to there real fate
make us hurt and make us cry
leave only hard cases dry of eye
but life cant all be doom and gloom
be creative let thoughts bloom
make us laugh till flatuation
and youl forever have our adulation
I share my secrets with you
I share my experience with you
You never leave me
You are always there for me
Two words I want to say
lThe words youl never for get
"Thank You"
Youl walked away
With a laugh and a wave
Like nothing had changed.
Complaining about the
Lack of beer
With the promise of a call.
But, I knew
I knew there would be no call
I knew that our time together
Was over.
You would never have admitted it
But, I knew.
