Nothing for granted

We
Always
Assume

We’re
Going
To
Wake
Up

….

Cover all unknown facts
Only one actually
Too much love for you, to not say it !

Souls defined

I do not think of where or when
I do know the whys and how’s

Undercurrent
Undertow
Anything
Unknown
Is more than I want to know

I can shake
The wherefore
The whatnots

It’s the belief
A time
An space
Is truly spent
In-line with
What we both have in mind

I will not place boundaries
I will not build fences
I will not ask
I will not judge
I will not fore-go
The realty of what I do know

the value of the time I’m in
Indicates whether I should actually care

After much thought
I find
I do care

Calm Waters Run Deep

I could find a song
That offer most of the words
To describe
The mellow flavor
The easy mood
The intense fear
And most of all
The reality I awake too

I couldn’t find a that song
The words
Taste the flavor
The feel of the fear
Or the reality I awake too

It’s a spark
A word
A glance
A time
A place
Shared
That reveals
The reality
The here and now

I listen
I see
I embrace
And I for the most part
Know
I that’s it’s
You
clearly as sunrise
As definite as sunset
That
I will make
time for
Make space for
Make myself
Avail too

I could find a song
That offer most of the words
To describe
The mellow flavor
The easy mood
The intense fear
And most of all
The reality I awake too

I couldn’t find a song
The words
Taste the flavor
The feel of the fear
Or the reality I awake too

It’s a spark
A word
A glacé
A time
A place
Shared
That reveals
The reality
The here and now

I listen
I see
I embrace
And I for the most part
Know
I that’s it’s
You
clearly as sunrise
As definite as sunset

Calm as waters run deep

Keeping time

Somedays I think I can fly forever
No consequence
No reason to not

Somedays I see the very reason
I enjoy standing grounded
In the company of you

Many years
Of observation
Lead me to you
Lead me to me

From now
This point in time
I know
It’s as real as I want it to be

Somedays I think I can fly forever
No consequence
No reason to not

Somedays I see the very reason
I enjoy standing grounded
In the company of you

Under the same sky

Friday was just a Friday
Then along came you
Then Friday became my everyday

Everyday was Friday
When you were in my realm
Everything was possible
Then along came the real you
Then everyday became my Monday

One Sunday
One day
You will slow down
And realize
How much
Your everyday
Is as empty as my
Monday

living for the moonlight

Not looking for you
I’m not wondering
Why you were the one
to take my breathe away
Yet I’ve only known of you a day shy of 30

Could see the reasons why
My yesterday’s are never gonna be my tomorrow’s
Cause
You
Take away the sorrow
I promise I won’t wish away the days
Even though I’m living for the moonlight

Seems it easier said than lived
The love I’ve missed all this time was the love you had
The give

Sweet
Sunday

No more melancholy
Mondays

You
Take away the sorrow
I promise I won’t wish away the days
Even though I’m living for the moonlight

Seems it easier said than lived
The love I’ve missed all this time was the love you had
The give

Sweet
Sunday

No more melancholy
Mondays

Town

How did I get here
What precipitated this reality
Can
I see it
Feel it
Touch it
Will I recognize it
Would I understand it

What was it
That got me this far
Only to fall
To trip
Throw out
My conscience
Living against the wind
Standing still
As the tide rolls in

I will not chase it
I cannot embrace it
Would I leave it
Now that it’s here before me

Left
still
Unanswered
And alone
Walk Till the moonlight fades
into daylight

Left in
Darkness
Awakened by the known
who stands before me

This town
My town
Changed me, yes it has

Breathe in
Breathe out
Live
Embrace
Accept the given
Nurture the known

How Did i get here
Is it because
I’ve grown
Into it
Or it grown into me
This town I call home

It’s as simple as 1,2,3

Don’t Think

Because,

It’s not bout reality
It’s not about what we know or Knew
It’s not even close enough for us to reach.

It’s about being there when you know it’s the last place you want to be.

It’s about giving when you have very little to give
It’s about accepting help when you know it’s the last thing you want

It’s not about you
It’s not about me

It’s bigger than anything you can see, touch or feel.

It’s more than the past, present or future

It’s about what we leave behind

It’s about who I want to be, and that everyone I love, is free to be.

My legacy equals your freedom

( It’s as simple as 1,2,3 )

out in the midnight

Stuck out in the midnight
Leaning on street lamp
Flipping through
my little black book
Locksmith’s 55
You’ve been out all night

The list is long
I stay strong
It’s just these little moments
In time that
I think I’m better off
Without
These ties
But the morning after had me
Feeling I’m a better person
With you
Than without

So I’m not gonna worry bout
The small stuff
Not gonna make it bigger
Than it is cause
It’s easier to
Forgive
Live and let live

The list is long
I stay strong
It’s just these little moments
In time that
I think I’m better off
Without
These ties
But the morning after had me
Feeling I’m a better person
With you
Than without

Just above the Fray

Nothing you can offer
Could change my heart
Something just above the Fray
Could ever settle the score

You can reason with your conscience
In the end
Reality wins

Don’t give in to the doubt
It’s just at the edge
Of what you thought
Was the beginning

You know and I know
That it’s a done deal

So don’t ask
Me to let go
Cause you know
It’s all show

You know and I know
That you gotta go with the flow

So take back anything you can’t stand behind
And let go of the falsehoods

You’ll get you beyond this,
and you’ll see you could do it on your own

I’m just the guide
Enjoying the ride
But you my love
Well it’s all about your life

And whether or not you know this by now, you’ll know by the time the last note is played

Don’t give in to the doubt
It’s just at the edge
Of what you thought
Was the beginning
