Rainbows
Verse
Swallow down another pill,
eat to much and drink your fill,
'cause sometimes it's hard to fill the pain,
Chorus
but you can't have rainbows without the rain, no you can't have rainbows without the rain,
Verse
flowers blooming in the springtime,
hues of yellow, red and green in the sun shine,
' cause every season, must embrace the change,
Chorus
'cause you can't have rainbows, without the rain, no you can't have rainbows without the rain,
Bridge
sometimes life can leave you broken,
in your quest to be awoken, ...

Preserverence
The first step is most difficult, and seems to take the most strength.
With every muscle wanting to revolt, turn quickly and run, fast away.
The second, it's said, it's much easier. Then the third, the fourth, as it goes.
Passing steps snuffing out your fears, until fear soon becomes just a ghost.
You'll find that you'll forget count, as the number of steps grows too great.
Your footsteps no longer making sound, as your feet and your shoes integrate.
Some people will walk for a thousand years. We're each on a journey, unique.
Stay the course, give no power...

The Ghosts Snare: Could die any minute”
Two minutes, until nine o’clock in the morning.
Found a pair of binoculars with a broken eye. Can’t take it anymore.
Anna’s been there for at least three hours, sat in front of a mirror with a candle. “I wouldn’t say Abigail is exactly like Amelia Dyer, but they both can’t repent of their lies, and both do come from Kent. All the silence but I’m listening to what’s said. Ricky’s walked on egg shells too.”
I sure did, like I saw her in a dream, not knowing why Jess was depressed; it’s always something else with women, and she doesn’t want to hear me rap. Before I woke...

I Miss
I miss being cuddled and hugged from behind,
Lately having a relationship again is all that's been on my mind.
I mean...being single isn't so bad,
But there is this feeling being in love brings...I just miss the way it felt.
I use to miss looking into his eyes, feeling my inside burn, feeling a thousand butterflies,
It's like he saw my soul, I just gave him the remote and he had full control.
I use to miss hearing “you're beautiful” and lighting up brighter than a bulb, I mean...i hear it from others,
But from him...from him it mattered...

Day by Day
Another morning without you
A soul removed, a void to fill
It seems like 'time heals' is just another lie
I was told to stay strong
Keep my head up
You'll be okay
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day
I still turn to ask you things
I make you cups of tea
I roll a fag and place it where you're sitting next to me
You're coming back
I don't know when or how
But you, gone forever?
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day
You didn't show up yesterday
You weren't here in the morning
I'll wait...
A soul removed, a void to fill
It seems like 'time heals' is just another lie
I was told to stay strong
Keep my head up
You'll be okay
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day

I roll a fag and place it where you're sitting next to me
You're coming back
I don't know when or how

Wind Sand Water (My Beloved)
Aloha
I welcome you to the island of my heart
Allow me to guide you through channels toward my secret place
The hidden cove of who I am, what I am
There I have a prepared a seat for only you
A space were we can entangle ourselves
Like hanging vines and grow strong together
Beloved, plant your roots
Around me and squeeze
I'm your rock and your roots preserves me
Two distinct entities but one peice
Beloved know that I always want you here on this island
Stay until forever is no more
Let your hair down and be...

Long Overdue Letter To My Parents
i’ve had a bit too much to drink
so be forgiving
of any errors
in grammar
punctuation
syntax or meter
i know you’ve been at this crossroad too
as i write tears fall onto the page
blurring the ink
but not the intent
my pain though existential
is every bit as real as a broken bone
for this life is about
suffering
and learning about
our mortality
and
our humanity
we are born through the suffering
of another
and
inflict our pain
on our parents
through...

The Enemy's Name
II.
Not some single figurine, some deity,
Not a constant, but personalities -
Building character unto this display.
A display which at any point may contain
Agents of democracy, agents of duty.
Willed sacrifice, shameful enterprise
Composing.
III.
The possibilities, never outcomes nor complete,
The regrets and the hopes – short precedence.
Hungry for more, a bitter taste,
The bit between my teeth
That I cannot remove.
The celebrated in silence,
The onlooker once looked on.
IV.
The transgression...
Not some single figurine, some deity,
Not a constant, but personalities -

Agents of democracy, agents of duty.

The regrets and the hopes – short precedence.

The bit between my teeth

TRYING TO SOLVE AN PUZZLE
From the mere symmetries of lines drawn within the sands of time as footprints of our journeys and walks through this element known as yes LIFE, let us feel love as well give back love in honesty and truth and trust as one man to one woman and one woman to one man in honor and respect. For let US through this building of our foundation of STEEL AND STONES, be an deep unshackable thing from those outside forces that dont wanna see us make it as ONE. For you see its ME AND YOU against the world as one for better are for worse, yes exposing it for what its truly worth an love that didnt come by...

the mind cannot know
things hidden inside the wall
so open the gates
things hidden inside the wall
