Living In the Moment

I know it's frowned upon

And in certain circumstances it's taboo

I know in the past in hasn't worked out for both of us

And I question myself this can not come true

I don't know whats round the corner and outcomes change

But I am still wanting you even if all the signs are pointing to no

I want to prove the critics wrong and give this a proper go

Ok we are living in a bubble

With hardship along the way

And though I really shouldn't say this

Is this just another work relationship

That will go up in flames?

Are we just living in the moment?

If one of us spreads our wings could we carry the other?

Could we handle our eyes seeing new wonders

from once living in a closed off world together? 

Is there a real decent chance for us, If not

...Then I'm not worried

Whatever will be and that is set in stone

I am living in the moment

And that moment just consists of you

So to be happy is all I ask

And in this moment it has finally come true

So i am sticking my middle finger up at all you doubters

You will never be able to put someone off

If that someone is going with the flow

Uneasy

I am finding this tough babe

Have a feeling I have fallen

Yet i feel it is to soon for you

Now my mind has complications

I'll let you in on my point of view

I am happy with what we have

You have brought joy and peace to my heart

But once again i'm doubting as there are pieces missing

Making them selves known that would of been there from the start  

Usually this would not bother but there are getting stronger

Life and relations would be more simpler

If we're intune with our hearts

so this is where it starts

Like seeing the emotion, the joyment of knowing

without disagreeing and disgarding something new

I am not saying i want to change you and not passing the blame

Just fed up of feeling the smallest disappontment

As you are now a part of me

I shall drop my masculinity

just for a second and let you in...

I'm in love with you.      

This shouldn't be a call of concern

This is a call from my heart.

Quiet Attraction

‘Quiet attraction, you’re overwhelming elegance;

all I could do was sit there,

blushing could you tell?

No chance in moving just to re-think.

The wanting of being elsewhere,

I needed one more look before I left;

got the feeling you wanted that too.

Sadly just to many people blocked the way,

turned around, head down due to having no view of you.

Will next time be more difficult?

Awkwardness in a room full of people,

now your work colleagues becoming aware,

it is not so quiet now.

Making tales in my head,

multiple versions of the way we could meet

but need of seeing you someplace else without eyes watching,

without the heat of embarrassment waiting,

for these thoughts to be said.’

Us

What would you rather me do

Question everything or to be a blank canvas?

I am trying to balance between the two

 

Want to figure out why I’m like this when these emotions are new

I know either answer after a while could end up with me losing you

Sad to say being without you could heal my mind but yet, where would that leave my heart?

You tell me ‘Being positive is a start’

 

I wanted to stop there but now I’m stepping back

And you are right, I am being negative and where is the trust?

Maybe it is our different worlds as there is so much I don’t understand

Want to be stubborn and show no emotion to get back at you

Wait...

I know that is not fair and of course all this is not fair on us.

 

You want me to be confident I can do so

I am the best thing that can happen to you

I’ll comfort you when times are hard

I’ll turn your giggle into a screaming laugh

And the physical act of love?  Well I know when you know enough is enough

 

I need you to see my true self

Tell me you know me, for me to take my obstacle down

To make you proud, to turn my frown upside down

To truly know you are committed, to feel safe and sound

I think by now you can tell, I would like this to be true love

Bitter

A million minds

All thinking for themselves 

Different race

Different sex

Dreaming of the things they want

The minds that never stop

Listening to the heart is false 

They are just words from old

It is our safety net from wanting more

You think of what you want too

I'll do the same

We will never meet

There is no end

So we just pretend to agree

When the doors are closed

You are free to go along your train of thought

Circle through your desires 

Young or old

Wishing or remembering...

You can't have them with me? 

...I know, of course not

Stressing always to get the point across 

I cannot read minds

That I am grateful for

Our minds is what makes us free

Yet the can hurt others without realizing

What's the point?

One person gives their heart

Regrets it once given

Wants to pass it along but realizes it too late

Left with desires 

What are you thinking about?

Nothing don't worry...

A million minds

But ask one

The closest One

Expect a lie

It's all false

Grace

‘I’ve turned on the light, my eyes move to focus.

This world cannot be bleak no more.

 The deep sounds tremble, helicopters pass by,

 Media scattered abrupt as if a hellish creature roars.

 I’ll tell you a story, a world, an old world.

 This is not just one world;

 there is never anything in space.

Things form from grace;

we are all a part of that grace

yet the bad souls cloud with haste.

This is our own entire journey.

The past but not all has been forgotten,

 the human can be as powerful as them all,

sadly our instinct paths can be corrupted

the lives that we lead will sooner or later fall.’

Becoming

‘Dreams are becoming, with an unfinished reason,

as in an opened door of what has been witnessed before,

 uncertainty, will I ever be sure.

 I am in need of the wanting, for progression of the understanding.

Too touch that settling feeling of knowing, for the need no more to explore.

In times of need you are the one I have opened up to,

searching through the skies and past the stars.

Asked so many questions and painted you my world,

 the world you placed me in, to suffice.

Your moment of silence, rare to this world like a forgotten second,

 making me wait for a new beginning,

when reality is I am just staring into space with no knowledge of belonging.

So my dreams are becoming.

Once again in need of knowing why,

I will look past your unhelpful knowledge,

my mind’s eye will decide.’

Creator?

The mind body and soul flows side by side with the atmosphere that makes us whole

Adapt, change progress gained

Movement differs with intention of being part of something

That something yet to be explained

At peace feel the unrest of the different sides to your soul

Reaction, question then interruption changing direction with hesitation as we don't enjoy 
control

Feel the eyes slowly shutting down making way for the mind

Breathe and listen feel the difference between your two sides

Lies, contradictions, truth, past, present and view. All speculations competed by good and bad

Dam Creator! Why is life this mad? Or is it just me? I feel I scratched the surface very 
young unsure where else to go

I will tell you about me

Don't lie, and don't cry, blood is blood, you are you. No need for fear, strength we all 
process and weakness is weakness

Money is paper but need it to survive as I am not from any tribe living off the green land. 
Now that life I believe is far greater

People may hurt I just accept but yet I will always have regrets

Emotion is an emotion I won't allow to linger

Are your eyes closed?

Who am I creator?

No need for a pause I'm like you with no solution

One big contradiction
