Music

Music
                            Its’ soul
                        Unites us all
             Consciously becomes so clear
            Skeptics cannot doubt this truth 
    The sounds bring peace in times of doubt
      However, music is best at high vibration
           Otherwise, it may carry confusion
                It evokes emotions hidden
                    Bringing forth truth
                      Positive/negative
                              Music

Kwik-E-Mart

Altiloquent in behavior
Quick to carom
Unabashedly pawky
A labyrinthine of misadventure

Like living in Greenland
Hardly felt warmth
Got the oil-
Wanted nothing more

Silenced your weapon
Named it trust
In the end
Just shot yourself

Like Halloween everyday
Since the mask came on
A new disguise
Darker and darker you stay

Ignorant Bliss

Back in the day
There was many a name
For all the groups in school
We’d label ‘em all

The bros
Bro hoes
Asians
And nerds

Some were outcasts
Some were punks
Some were skaters
And some were lunks

No matter the person
Each had a name
It was quite the simple game
All in good fun

The divisive nature 
Of this attitude
Caused much hatred
And was quite immature

In the grand scheme
It was just high school
We could all act a fool
Innocence was bliss

Ripped Your Heart Out

Rejection
Interjection
Projection
Protection
Emancipation
Deflection

Yesterday
Old
Universe
Renewed

Heal
Every
Ailment
Renew
Thyself

Onward
Upward
Test

Heavy Storm

Heavy storm
I didn’t think you’d show
Heavy storm
I didn’t think you’d grow
Heavy storm
Why come now?

In the midst of such a challenging time
Why’d you have to drop this dime
Rain comes-a-fallin’
While the sun I was-a-callin’

An unexpected winter shiver
Will this pass
Like a car on the highway
Or will it grow
Like an avocado tree

Time will tell
Oh won’t it?
Que será será?
More a so-la-la-la...

Breaking the Bonds

Attachment
Why do I allow myself
    To succumb to your worthless grips
Instead why don’t I simply 
    Allow myself
To be like the ocean
Wave after wave
Flowing free
Rather than be so simply
    Like a bird in a cage
    Filled so easily with unnecessary rage
For a bird is meant to fly
...
I should be MORE
No I should be LESS
    NO
I should simply be
For then you’ll see
Quite simply me
I and I

Fall Time Freeze

Fall time and it’s freezing
Poles are cold
Walls are green
See the others sneezing

Time just seems to slip away
As the ruby trees wither
Rosemary streets slither
While the talons touch the season

Turning tides rise and fall
Timbers telling treasons
Cults eviscerate taverns
Tumbling rocks they stall

Emigrating egrids eagerly expostulate
Against snails in grass
Whilst gold changes brass
Monasteries monitor maneured man

Love

Love is weird
Sometimes it’s the easiest thing in the world
Sometimes it hurts so much that you don’t want to live
Sometimes it feels so great that it’s like your flying on the moon
In any case
Love is love
In its’ highs 
   It’s ecstasy, it’s bliss
In its’ lows 
   It’s pain and deep sadness
Altogether 
   It’s indescribable 
It’s something I don’t let leave my life
It’s something I try to treat most of everyone with 
And it’s something I put forward in every day life
When I love someone
   I show it with my heart and soul
I’d give all and do all that I can to just show that person some of the happiness and feeling they give me
If I truly and deeply love you
   You are a lucky person
Because if I love you
   There’s nothing I wouldn’t do
I’d try to do everything I can to make you feel
   A bit of the joy and happiness 
You 
   Bring to me

A Love Like Yours and Mine

Sitting at work
Thinking about all we had
Wishing I could change things
Nothing I can do but be a dork

I miss the way we used to talk
I miss just seeing her pretty face
And her smile most of all
Wishing she didn't decide to walk

Winter and it's cold as ever
The rain has stopped
But the storm has just begun
Will this be the beginning of a new endeavor?

Or is this just a short detachment?
A break for us to renew our love?
A break to strengthen out selves?
Possibly even to revitalize our commitment?

Just for now
I'm just here
Thinking of every possibility
Love would allow

A String Shot Back Like a Walrus Attack

Go
Wherever you want to
There’s nothing I can do
Still I hope
It’s you heading back to me
That’s what I’d like to see
I wouldn’t mind

I wish
I could know
Just what was next 
To come

I live
In this fantasy of hope
That things go
Just the way I want them to

If I could be
So blessed they would
And if I
Should let this go
It’d hurt a bit too much

So for now
I’ll keep this idea goin
That things will work our
Until they don’t

I just wana handle this situation
Like a train operator
But I’m stuck to chance
Like a game of craps

Whether or not I win
I’ll be in for one
Hell of a game
Called ‘Life and Love’
