If you are up there is no down,
if you can not hear then there is no sound
So My feelings cant be real, cause what I feel and you feel is not the same
that perception of things is the same perception of saying because you are inside there is no rain
if you can not hear then there is no sound
So My feelings cant be real, cause what I feel and you feel is not the same

The Shadow
I didn't sleep well last night
as I spent a good portion of it trying to figure how a shadow can assist in a room with no light
but there it was clearly in my view
not stretch across the floor or some wall but standing in the center of my room
swaying like it was breathing , with no face or movements that could give any reasoning
I realized I was frozen, thinking the wrong move could upset it
if all it was going to do was sit there, then I would let it
but then I realized it was there to take me and why, I do not know
but wherever we were going, I...

I apologize for it being so good
she moves like a candle as it flickers in the wind
she is my angel but in this moment she may be engulf in a little sin
it is lust that's controlling, her sexuality that is holding
I don't think I will last long and pray it isn't disappointing
but hey what can she expect when she processes a plant with such goodness in it
sweet , wet nature that make you want to plant your seed up in it
I mean real deep, so deep that you reach her bottoms creek
similar to a dams cracks you watch as her body seeps
cant explain how the...

UnSelfishly selfish
How selfishly , self, it is to be unselfish when everyone wants to be needed
no man is a Island , but this lone wolf is howling
to that you can trust and believe in
If I am to fail, it will be on my own, and that is until I'm gone
I wont drag them along but
for not doing so they tell me that I am mistakenly wrong
they want me to be weaker like I am too strong
but this pain that I am feeling is best contained in my zone
best that continue to handle these things all on my own
I will continue to carry until the burden shatters my bones ...

Hold it together
A heavy stone in my left hand and another in my right I'm instructed to hold them together
Do not let them fall apart, embrace the struggle until it gets better
but I am weakening , struggling as my arms grow tired
sweat runs from my head and moistens my palms
loosening my grip while I'm still instructed to carry on
but heavy is the head that bares, heavy is the heart that cares,
this makes me feel like its peace offered to the one who dares
let go of the pain in one hand and hurt in the other
but like instructed he holds it together
and does...

Motive
Happiness something all desire but few are willing to give without exchange
which means that it is not in purest form but only for gain
but who can blame
when self preservation is hard wired in ones brain
can one really change
I mean , who understand the difference in saying what do you have and this is what I bring

Love and Nature
Chasing happiness through rough terrain
mountainous ridges over narrow walking bridges
Sceneries that leave me in aw just standing
High, high as Everest but low as canyons
Love roads get rocky , sea storms
turn calm seas to where hurricanes are born
In hot water over casted by grey skies
rain reflects and fall from these eyes
but somehow sunshine once again is breaking through
This is true that the rainbow will too
life and love both reflected in natures unpredictability
As nature does what it wants without accountability
and we...

Purpose
Feel me deeper than the surface
Need me like the very thing that gives you purpose
Make me feel priceless when I've been left worthless
understanding unfamiliar to love compassion makes me nervous
with one who so amazing ,I feel less amazing
The needing of me is something that I am craving
So selfishly selfish of me
To only think of myself when I say I only want to be there for somebody
To know me beyond the surface is to know that I need purpose
To no longer feel so worthless and that I have a loving heart that troubles to be loved so much that...

Am I any different
For love has become practices, scripted acts done no matter the actor playing the role
a lady who does this because I'm suppose to not because of the chemistry of our soul
Feeling I have earned so much from you
only to face that those who did not deserve it still shared parts of you
A plate you make for me because I am your king
but if you made a plate for another then the symbolism no longer means a thing
I don't want to be a recast, of a previous relationship that did not last
maybe I'm wrong but
As her king , she's...

Unmovable and Unstoppable Object
When the unstoppable meets the unmovable
a question of endless power that remains irrefutable
But what if I say I solved that paradox
that these two forces become cosmically interlocked
because then things come into the focus
and these two now have meaning and purpose
let me explain.. because what still remains
is the factors of one is unstoppable and the other unmovable and that cannot change
unmovable is one , determine to stay with out assistance
anchor by the same beliefs held by a hopeless romantic that keeps it...

I am Inspired
I am inspired tonight
But I dread that what i am inspired to write
Is not full of the subject matter the helps one aspire in life
That this is more so for those in need of a cautionary tale
a warning to those who want love that is destined to fail
For together I gave my all, which will never be enough
but once apart you tell me you are willing to settle for just my love
How ironic, now that I'm accepting of us being platonic
you offer me sips of a love created by a charlatan
selling a delusional tonic
Told not to love them, so I...
