Old Friend

HEY OLD FRIEND
LEAVE ME BE
DONT COME AROUND ONCE MORE
DONT STOP TO BOTHER ME
TRYNNA GET ME TO QUESTION MY FAITH
QUESTION MYSELF
LET GO OF MY SAINITY
OMIT MY HEALTH
OLD FRIEND
YOUR TRYIN,
AND PUTIN UP A GOOD FIGHT
YOUR COLD OLD FRIEND
YOU AINT RIGHT
I MEAN YOU TRY SO HARD
AND I JUST KEEP THINKING.....
YOU KNOW I KEEP THINKING ABOUT THE PAST
BACK WHEN LIFE WAS FADING, FALLING, EXPENDING,
FAST
NOT ANYMORE
WHAT DO YOU NEED,
OLD FRIEND
I TOLD YOU LAST TIME THAT IT WAS THE END
WHAT COULD YOU POSSIBLY NEED WITH MY LIFE
EXCEPT TO BRING PAIN,
EXCEPT TO BRING STRIFE
WHAT OLD FRIEND....
TELL ME
BECAUSE FRUSTRATION HAS RISEN
DONT LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS
AWAY,
HIDDEN
TELL ME
OLD FRIEND
WHAT DO YOU NEED
TELL ME OLD FRIEND
WELL SAID OLD FRIEND
REMEMBER ME
SO I CAN BE
YOU...
AGAIN

Enlighten

ENlighteN

 

 

 

 

 

when born on this earth we are destined to suceed 

we fail our sucess because of sloth and greed

when challenges come thy way

and night falls over this broken day

i know  that tomarrow brings new dawn

so sit back relax and move on

but yet again trouble is abound

some times it aint easy to keep those feet on the ground

i swollow my fear of what might come of things

and i let go and fly high on  broken wings

regret is like a burning ring of fire that always apears too late

death  comes only once but it's worth the wait

why do i do the things i do 

who know's

could those teen statistics be true

it shows

love grows 

triumph apears

bye bye broken hearted fears

see when you look at my art you're entranced 

and although you dont know quite get the meaning of those words that dance

those words that dance across my pallet of gold

you continue to invision my thoughts untold

me myself and i couldnt even tell you what this means

because deep down inside my words are traped in a dream

i was put in this earth-like tenement to achieve life's goal

to make less into more and half into whole

but how must i do this if i cant tame my own art

and if true meaning of soul lives deep down in my heart

just another one of those questions that are answered later on in life

past the pain and past the strife

yeah you dont get this poem, its for enlightenment not entertainment

watch as i express and engage in it
