Say goodbye
I feel so alive
I'll give anything a try
You can draw the line
But I'm not afraid to die
Keep those cheeks dry
I don't want to see you cry
Don't tell me lies
I see the truth in your eyes
You'll always be mine
Even though you're with that other guy
But you know you're right
I'll always have an excuse to be high
Don't close your eyes to the signs
It's no longer our time
Let's not ask why
And just say our goodbyes
I'll give anything a try
You can draw the line
But I'm not afraid to die
Keep those cheeks dry
I don't want to see you cry
Don't tell me lies
I see the truth in your eyes
You'll always be mine
Even though you're with that other guy
But you know you're right
I'll always have an excuse to be high
Don't close your eyes to the signs
It's no longer our time
Let's not ask why
And just say our goodbyes

The plight of the Perpetual Pilgrim
Pity those misguided noble souls
and me amongst ‘em
desperately searching for some higher truth
on an impossible quest
to discover unobtainable answers
Toiling through absurdity
surviving on the shreds of wisdom
which have somehow lasted
times tried and tested, sweeping brush
Or dots of new found knowledge
caught before they reach the ground to spoil
Who walk the road to nowhere
asking at each precipice or plateau
“Is this destiny? Is this it... where I belong?”
But seekers seldom stay too long ...
and me amongst ‘em
desperately searching for some higher truth
on an impossible quest
to discover unobtainable answers
Toiling through absurdity
surviving on the shreds of wisdom
which have somehow lasted
times tried and tested, sweeping brush
Or dots of new found knowledge
caught before they reach the ground to spoil
Who walk the road to nowhere
asking at each precipice or plateau
“Is this destiny? Is this it... where I belong?”
But seekers seldom stay too long ...

Liberated
Once a vivid outline
now a blur
Smudging into the mist of time
memories of you
linger for a while... before
..... Slowly dissipating into the atmosphere
Now, I can see clearly....

The Middle of the Train Track
Wait.
I wait at the station.
Eager and curious
Filled with elation
Look.
I look for you.
Handsome and dark
My heart races before you
The kindest of eyes
The warmest of smiles
I am ready to go with you
For miles and miles
I took my hand in yours
As the train opened its doors
“There’s room for two by the door”
At a table meant for more
Time flies by
As you look me in the eye
Take me on a joy ride
I have nothing...
I wait at the station.
Eager and curious
Filled with elation
Look.
I look for you.
Handsome and dark
My heart races before you
The kindest of eyes
The warmest of smiles
I am ready to go with you
For miles and miles
I took my hand in yours
As the train opened its doors
“There’s room for two by the door”
At a table meant for more
Time flies by
As you look me in the eye
Take me on a joy ride
I have nothing...

Intentions
Could you please
At least
Spit first
Before the thought of you
Within me
Unfurls itself
Rising from the depths of my gut
Slime and fetid stench
Coming to rest at the back of my throat
Settling just beneath the bile
To keep me on my toes
You
My noose
In one way or another
How do I subvert the purpose of the rope
Around my neck
When the reaching of my hands
Loses its meaning
And the lighthouse of my soul has begun to lean
In storm winds it wasnt built to withstand
But...
At least
Spit first

And the lighthouse of my soul has begun to lean

Answered Prayers
God answered prayers I didn’t know I had.
Got rid of people that I didn’t know were bad.
Ended relationships that would have broken.
Stopped words I tried so hard to be spoken.
Words that weren’t meant to be said.
Helped me get out of the wrong bed.
I didn’t give what couldn’t be returned.
An act that would have just left me hurt.
Friendships that were never repaired.
Because neither person really cared.
Just dragging each other down.
Just watching each other drown.
A marriage that doesn’t have any love. ...

The Last One
I always loved you and all truth you can't deny it And you have always been the woman, that I choose to live and die with. And to say I didn't love you, that's a lie and don't try it. Yes we would fight and I would yell.
Say things that would hurt your heart and in your eyes the tears will swell. Yes my love you I hurt you ,and you hurt me as well.
You didn't seem to notice that I have feelings, So the pain swelled inside my heart and shit would hit the fan of my mental ceiling. And I know my anger made it worse, but anger was my way of saying that I am hurt. ...

Silent Emotions
Oh, what a grand fool I am
To think that this will ever change
Thoughts of you a storm in my brain
I have a box in my mind I keep rebuilding
Where I gather the stray rainy thoughts
Those moments of realization that I'll never say
I silently gather the lightning glass from
The sandy shores of my turbulent mind
I can get over anyone, anything, but you
To think that this will ever change
Thoughts of you a storm in my brain
I have a box in my mind I keep rebuilding
Where I gather the stray rainy thoughts
Those moments of realization that I'll never say
I silently gather the lightning glass from
The sandy shores of my turbulent mind
I can get over anyone, anything, but you

Move On
First love
The passion is intense
And it's hard to break up
Even when staying together makes no sense
We fear
The future is unknown
We need to take that first step
Our biggest fear is to end up alone
Breaking up
It's not easy to do
You know it's about him
But he makes you feel it's about you
Chorus:
Don't let fear control you
Don't cling to what's already gone
Never expect changes, they'll never come
Just let them go, move on
Don't let anyone try to change you
Continue...

THE BATTLES OF LOVE
How did we get to this situation in our lives that seems to be an issue as well as an situation with, the process of loving each other as we once did before the storm came and turned our lives basically upside down. How did we become less than strangers that once who shared dreams, together of love with understanding with devotional respect. Yet here we are now face to face, not speaking nor sharing in the true deepness of the love. Yet we are here now instead of building a strong foundation together, we are constantly breaking each other down mentally and emotionally. How did we come to this...
