We are such different people
You love Ray Charles
I like Ray Price

We are such different people
You love Italian food
I’d eat most anything you made me

Now we don’t talk too much
And I haven’t seen you in so long
I sometimes wonder why I thought
We’d be

Days so long nights the same
As I sit and ponder the what ifs of life.

Overwhelming emotions run through me
the tears begin to flow rapidly down my face.

How differently my achievements my mistakes my world would have been
If you where here to guide me through.

Appearance happy

It's near the hour of our death

patient. until our final rest

draw near another test:

which best the undead or the unrest?

We march at morning light

we guard by day delight

we lite the skies at night

on a log I sit

tree fallen trunk split

once standing the tallest

before free falling in the forest

to the ground

made a sound as it hits

now soft wood rotting

life sprouting often

no need for savvy

Oh muse oh intellect aid me now

Oh projection that schemes my woes

Through I shall show the collapse

Of all we know

And care not to.

You left at seven am and it is now four
I sit a look out the window and even watch the door

I normally do not care what it is you do
For reasons unknown today I seem to be upset with you

Advantages of me have been given and also

I think I need to rethink my life
for there's too much confusion to make sense.
And experiences that I have been through
make this life seem more intense.

What would life be without choices?
It's your own path you must choose.
And maybe you might win this game
and if not face it

So-

It turns out that

I’m a prisoner of the white lights

in my mind.

It’s like my mind is covered in

lazy scabs.

MY HEART BEATS A TRUMPETS TUNE
A SOUND OF SWEET JAZZ UNDER A BLUE MOON.
WITH STARS THAT LIGHT UP THE DARK SKY'S
MY TRUMPET SINGS SMOOTH MELLOW LULLABIES
THE SOUND LURES MY MIND IN DEEP MEDITATION
AND GIVES MY SPIRIT A DIVINE SENSATION
WITH MY FINGERS I HUMBLE MY RHYTHM
AND

You cannot capture her

For she was never meant to be caged.

All you want but can never have.

Take her when she is there

But know that each time may be the last

And that you must let her go.

She needs you but will not tell you so

Cannot tell you
