8 Dollar dates with you
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter where we dine
It doesn't matter where we are
It doesn't matter if we get lost
It doesn't matter if rains
It doesn't matter how long the ride is.
As long as i share my meal with you
as long as i share the scene with you
As long as I'm holding your hand
As long as you're presence keeps me warm
As long as you're right beside me
All my fears doesn't matter
as long as you're here with me.
It doesn't matter where we dine
It doesn't matter where we are
It doesn't matter if we get lost
It doesn't matter if rains
It doesn't matter how long the ride is.
As long as i share my meal with you
as long as i share the scene with you
As long as I'm holding your hand
As long as you're presence keeps me warm
As long as you're right beside me
All my fears doesn't matter
as long as you're here with me.

As So Often Happens
As so often happens day turns to night,
Life glides from one to other without seam,
We simply sense an absence of the light;
Reality attracts a bit more dream.
Our lives comprise many such transitions,
States disappear without a cogent end,
Action emanates from indecision,
Base-metal strangers transmute into friends.
One syllable of the words I’ve spoken,
Unknowing, may have made a sea-change start,
We cannot point a finger at the moment
Or separate a fragment from the heart.
Our lives are like waves upon an ocean, ...
Life glides from one to other without seam,
We simply sense an absence of the light;
Reality attracts a bit more dream.
Our lives comprise many such transitions,
States disappear without a cogent end,
Action emanates from indecision,
Base-metal strangers transmute into friends.
One syllable of the words I’ve spoken,
Unknowing, may have made a sea-change start,
We cannot point a finger at the moment
Or separate a fragment from the heart.
Our lives are like waves upon an ocean, ...

Searching...
I’ve searched high and low, I’ve searched the surface and the depths, I’ve even searched the places children go to hide. The quest is excruciating and the pain is exponential in intensity. Where have I missed is the question for the ages but no response is offered. The quest is for certainty. The only place left to look is behind. Aaah yes, there it is. Certainty only exists in yesterday.

The Blackness Fades
My mind is a powerful place
so powerful that I nearly
lost my battle with it
It used to break me down
I was a ruined city for a while
and every time I tried to rebuild
I’d get torn down again
but I had a long talk
with my bruised brain
and we decided to get better
It didn’t take overnight
for healing takes time
and depression tried to lure
me back in
I couldn’t be a ruined city anymore
I wasn’t going to be defined...

Here's Tae Twa Braers!
Here's Tae twa braers!
A braer tae me, is no just oany wan th' cum's alang,
Or stoaps tae shoot th' breeze,
He's a man Tae cum alang side ye at oany time ye need,
Tae lisin Tae o yer woes.
A man tha' ne'er hides awa or pass ye oan the street.
Naw! a braer sticks through thick an thin,
Nae matter whit is wrang,
A braer lends an ear, a shulder Tae hae a greet,
Or a hand Tae help ye up,
He's wan Tae wipes awa yer tears, and bides until the end.
That's a braer tae me!

Empathy For Toxic People
Toxic people can’t offer me comfort.
Their toxic energy only allows them to care for themselves.
They are only out for themselves and the true motives of their actions always come to light.
Emotional pain is an enabler for them to cause you more harm.
It’s hard to set boundaries because your empathy comes in the form of a friend, family member, or significant other that you know is not right for you in a healthy way.
Yet, it’s hard for you to comprehend and accept what you see in these toxic individuals
The control and manipulation goes over your...

A Song of Love
We need a song of love for each and everyone,
A simple song that all nations can sing along.
One man could compose and sing this easy song,
But it would be better if we all sing it together.
So help me to write a melodious song of love,
And make the words come from within our hearts.
Let all interested singers play an active part.
And may the end be as pleasant as the start.
In every land and sea across the earth,
Sing stanzas of love and let your voices be heard.
May every one of us act in harmony with our song,
And promote...

Millennial Mornings
Good morning millennials.
Hope all is well knowing damn well a quarter of y'all need bail from jail.
Rent pushing up good luck, I know half of y'all false upscale while three
quarters of y'all looking up from hell.
Hormones in food have you swole like Clydesdales but your parents
fridge is locked down without bail.
Widespread culture is dead.
Our generation so fed up wanting to buck our student loans cause the
government fucked up.
How do you charge $100k large to a brother with no job and cast him
to society?
Highway robbery, it's...

LIFE
One can never tell what life has in store we all remain stagnant because the opportunities life gives we choose to ignore
I've learned to follow my heart everyone's heart sings a different song
I follow my heart weather in the end it's right or wrong
you meet different types of people on life's Road obstacles are thrown your way we overcome these obstacles if we choose to see another day
there isn't one person in life that is there without any purpose at all
they're either there to teach you a lesson or to be of assistance and prevent your fall

Winter Beech Leaves
People of the past
Tell us what we've lost!
They fed us on ignorance
Everything shrouded in righteous gloom
All change forbidden
Slime oozes from above
corrosive and cold
Yet love hangs on
stubborn as winter Beech
who's leaves refuse to fall
People of the past
Don't die in vain
Tell us what we've lost
Tell us what we've lost!
They fed us on ignorance
Everything shrouded in righteous gloom
All change forbidden
Slime oozes from above
corrosive and cold
Yet love hangs on
stubborn as winter Beech
who's leaves refuse to fall
People of the past
Don't die in vain
Tell us what we've lost

Shine
Even though we are apart,
You've built a home within my heart,
And on my chest lay your head
To rest
And dream of what we will to create,
Oh I see the shine of the sun light setting in your eyes
Oh in your eyes
And I feel the warmth of your breath upon my lips
And with your hand in my hand
It becomes easier to understand
Just how fleeting
the precious perfection of a moment can be
You've built a home within my heart,
And on my chest lay your head
To rest
And dream of what we will to create,
Oh I see the shine of the sun light setting in your eyes
Oh in your eyes
And I feel the warmth of your breath upon my lips
And with your hand in my hand
It becomes easier to understand
Just how fleeting
the precious perfection of a moment can be

Nice Guys Finish Last
Nice guys or Bad boys
What do women want!
We do not know
So be yourself
Fight for love
Love will set you free
So that you:
Can Enjoy Love
As many times possible
What do women want!
We do not know
So be yourself
Fight for love
Love will set you free
So that you:
Can Enjoy Love
As many times possible
