Peace
That shining light is fuel
It feeds my fuse
You gave me such ambition
How could I ever say thank you
I loved you for that reason
It's why I love you still
When you begin to miss me
Just know it was all for real
You were an experience
Of a lifetime
One I didn't wish to quit
Yes I would have married you
Even gave you kids
This is not feasible
I do understand
But your the voice inside me
That made me who I am
Behind every great man
Is a woman's work
Behind all my success
You inspired...

Acceptence
I wipe away my tears
From the sting of the truth
I promise I meant it
When I said I love you
But fate clearly
Divided us whole
Destiny seperated us
Though I can't let go
Yes times are changing
Vivid to see
Guess this seperation
Was harder on me?
It's just not that easy
When your inspiration leaves
When theres nothing
To drive you
Across the Red Sea
I hear what you say
Please don't be upset
Your gone ... yes
Hasnt soaked in yet
I still morn this loss ...

Catch this
Your imagine shines a grin
On what's left of me
All I have is my sanity
Can I reverse time back
Make you mine
Only in Einstein's eyes
I'm accepting reality
There's no you and me
But does It sound crazy
That's where I want to be.
You know I have these
Moments, call it ESP
I dont know maybe
I'm dreaming
I feel you
Missing me
Mid day Mid sentence
It hits me
Like a symphony
In my temporal lobe
The feeling explodes
Sending shivers to my...

Chance
As time passed
I saw the glass
Half empty
That's how you left me
Remnants of what I lost
Seeing phantoms ghost
All I have
Is what you said last
My rebuttal to Purple Rain
Leaves a stain
On my former triage
But smile on my face
One memory remains fierce
All I can say
Is A Thousand Years
Past and future remains
The same
Nothing's changed
Nothing to gain
Jus my thoughts
And love you gave
I kept concieled
As I always will ...
Even if it's never real ...

Serenity
Search no more for
Keys to locked doors
Serenity is the gateway
I seek
To define my mortality
No more casualties
Of this haunting plague
Acceptence gave me
The power to make way
Towards this knob
And turn it without
Looking back
Learn it
So I never lose track
Of my past but
Look beyond the glass
I freeze frame
Before I open
Remember what mother told me
Absorb the lessons
See the message
It takes, Courage
To give you drive
To stay alive, Courage
To face the other side.

Judgement
Set aside my meditation
To bring this indignation
This persona youve cast
Upon me and my mask
Is only your perception
Of what you thought
Your life could teach me
As if you were the oracle
To my Path
The Shepherd that
Guides me aimlessly
This perception aquired
Is one you've desired
To foreshadow the meaning
To your existence.

Resurrection
(Pitfall's Antithesis)
Guilty as charged
On the run from myself
Marinating in certain death
Ive been to limbo
Staring at my existence
My prescence a figment
Of this imagination
Reincarnation
Presumes me dead
You reached me
On the shores of now
Tell me how
Can my past haunt me
Then future taunt me
For standing in the present
Looking in the right direction
Shoulders broaden
As you enter the horizon
Your faith kept me fighting
While the sands of Poseidon
Begin sinking
Ultimately ending me
I feel...

Error
I search for answers
Inside the haze
Truth was spoken
My eyes were glazed
Astonished by these events
That baffle me
Right now im defriending me
That night I lost my control
My resolve left with my soul
What was I thinking
With you around
How did I not turn you down
Inhibitions running wild
Perfect storm
Perfect cloud
An alive comatose state
I had reached
Not knowing my boundries
You were there
But not there for me
I was here
But it wasnt the real me
How can I forgive a tragedy ...

Pitfall
Why am I this way
Cant take the agony
Is anyone hearing me
Have you ever had the feeling
Mere existence is overwhelming
Your caught in a dark place
In a darker race
Headed towards your demise
With fear consumes my eyes
Future is gone
Save me? no one
How could this happen again
Why do I even try to live
Isolation is the only truth
Nothing can get to you
Myself is all i need
Put everyone in your past
Leave them behind
Only way to survive
Tears fill theses pupils
Something im use to ...

Solitude
Minds in a cloud
Time to write it out
When judgement changes outcomes
Anger blinds you from loved ones
I never mean it when i do it
but its always intended
For the non-offended
I could keep this bottled up
Pace the floor hope it leaves
but somehow it always finds me
Cant see beyond the cloud
Emotions are loud
Feelings unsure
Is rain my cure?
My release from this fog
It shall pour before to long
In that moment when rain meets pavement
My solice is made evident
Salvation has reached out to me ...

Symmetry
How about love and hate
two opposing traits
Sadly we need both
to give us hope
Understanding one another
is the key to knowing each other
hating love is like loving hate
Which in retrospect
is what we need today
I am love
I am hate
Because I cant live any other way
We've seen hate be cruel
Loved ones hurt
But if not for both
How would we know our worth
Im not saying hate is good
Not saying love is bad
But how would u know what it means to be sad
If u couldnt feel one
Impossible
Compassion without sorrow...
