I can smell the BBQ blazing in this city I love
Another sign of the warmer minds to come.

The blurry city sounds fuel my wonderment.
Does arrogant pride complicate free will?
Bodies in collages abstract the soul.
One in the crowd is passion the other regret.
Trivial pursuits help

It's raining I said. Good Friday must have passed.
The drops hit my skin and help me feel like I am changing inside.
Maybe it's the wine but I've been here before.
Blur another chance; maybe the cat remembers last night.

I believe in Easter. It's time to rise again.

This person that everyone thinks they know is slowly dying
  • Everyday I can't stop from crying
  • I cry even though not a tear is shown
  • This body of mine I have developed into stone
  • I keep all my emotions in because I have no way to let them out

    Sweet angels dance around me.
  • Fill me with love and joy.
  • Come comfort me with hope when there is no hope.
  • Show me a light when there is pure darkness.
  • Shelter me from all the evils of the world.
  • Show me only the goodness in people
  • for that is their

    You can't fight the tears.
  • There's nowhere to run
  • Nowhere to hide.
  • When the enemy is yourself.
  • I see through your fake smiles
  • Through your silence.
  • Share the screams that only you hear.
  • Fear is only a state of mind.
  • Darkness only comes if you let

    The sky cries for the one we have lost.
  • Time moves on as we stand still.
  • Trapped in our unreal reality.
  • He is no longer on this earth but he has found his heaven.
  • He is now the angel that will guide us in our time.
  • He took with him a

    The world "changes" yet everything stays the same.
  • There's nothing but discrimination and blame.
  • The world is run by the fear of difference and change.
  • To make the world better peoples hearts we need to rearrange.
  • Broaden your mind and heart.
  • This is the time to restart.
  • People need to

    You say that I don’t love you

    Cause I treat you so unkind

    Then you hold up my behavior as your proof

    Well let me tell you honey

    I’d sure like to change your mind

    Because nothing could be further from the truth

    You say that I’m unfeeling

    Something so full of hopes and dreams
    Something so full of life and energy
    How could this same thing become so depraved;
    So discouraged as broken flowers on a busy street?

    From whence did the flowers fall?
    Were they on the way to the hospital to say “get well”

    LOVE IS..........
    LOVE IS SWEAT AS A BLUE JAY'S TUNE.
    LOVE IS  A WARM BREEZE IN THE AFTERNOON.
    LOVE IS A SOFT KISS AND A WARM EMBRACE.
    LOVE IS A SALTY TEAR FLOWING DOWN YOUR FACE.
    LOVE IS A HOWL OF THE WIND AT NIGHT.
    LOVE IS  THE RAIN THAT

    Things happen

    And people fall apart

    But we have something stronger

    The beating of our hearts

    We often exist

    In separate worlds

    But between our two hearts

    Love unfurls

    Together we create

    A universal rhythm

    Two beings in tune

    With utter magnetism

    So when we’re apart

    I’ll be fine

    Because I know your heart

    A bumble bee flying in the air

    Did see a lady passing fair.

    He thought this lady passing grand

    And so he landed on the lady’s hand.

    The lady scared of the bumble bee’s love

    Did give the bee a little shove.

    While trying on her hand to cling

    The bee
