Change
I get nostalgic for a kind of suffering
That lingers on the fingertips of broken words
and half lit cigarettes
Of forgotten fallacies
That trip on the existential drip
Of lyrics lost to pens without ink
Of wine glasses, filled to the brim
And bags of freedom
Found between sirens fingertips
Of desire for change
Out of habits that just stay the same
And cycles that repeat...

Change
Turning points peak the highest,
As for change, it gets worse.
Been drowning in sorrow,
Found myself at rock bottom.
Its time for a metamorphosis,
time for a change of gears now.
Forget the fears and whispers,
Late night critics will still be there irregardless.
Let's look at the world from a different perspective,
Transmogrify my life if possible.

Equilibrium
She flew over meadows
Over rivers & brooks
And held conversations
With articulate rooks
Who told her a tale
Of when mankind resided
And the balance of nature
Irreparably subsided
How they ravaged her soul
And ripped out her heart
And watched their green world
Slowly depart
How the creatures of woods
Of forests, and meadows
Had to fle...

Let Go
Winter weeping must now let go
its bitter grip of ice and snow;
frost-bitten trees burst out in leaf,
and soon forget their latest grief.
The sun breaks through to heat the earth,
gives mass-explosion of green birth,
the land throws off its captive's hold,
so earth perfumes can now grow bold.
Let go of all the former things;
a bumblebee twice never stings
and change is sure, as certain...

Entitled to Love
They tell us;
“You are not entitled to anything.”
But, somehow we feel that’s wrong.
The birds have food,
the beasts have water;
and they can find a mate.
They tell us;
“The world is harsh,
it hands you nothing.”
But, humans seem to make it worse.
Your rules, and laws and boundaries of the mind;
enslave us to earn a dollar,
while you stand and jeer and watch.
They tell...

Riding a rickshaw through the uneven lines in my hair that I made when I tried cutting my hair
I tried to be a changed man,
so I shaved the sides of my head,
but it quickly grew back out,
now I'm drowning in pointless doubt.
Could it be what you said,
cause it haunts me when I'm in bed.
Few words on repeat,
just seem stuck in my head.
I tried to be a changed man,
but habits don't die young,
running up on empty,
ever since I left me.
And my confidence is tanking,
I just nee...

Changing Score
Amplify the greening stillness
Clarify the setting day
Beautify the chirping boldness
Dignify a song to play
Classify the singing earthlings
Deify the animating word
Rectify the tearing heartstrings
Specify the crying heard
Vilify all biting virtue
Ossify a bending bone
Electrify the burgeoning snafu
Unify the hearts of stone
Fortify the flagging creature
Solidify the melting co...

Adjusting to Change - Anxiety
hurting, melting, head caving
my head so broke inside
trying to hold it together
but i feel so far from fine
suffocating, shaking, heart racing
my body responds in fear
trying to reason with myself
though it doesn't help it clear
aching, receding, soul's numbing
my mind is shutting off
trying to hold onto reality
but i feel so very lost
falling, stalling, chest pounding
my soul'...

Way of life
You say I am a good person,
They say I am a bad one,
Forgetting that I am just a human being,
Just being what I am now.
Change is unstoppable, just like the flow of water,
People change, so does life,
Making sad almost all the time.
They say you are the one with wisdom,
I can only see you as the one with regret.
"Life is beautiful" as you state,
So why it becomes so hard living like ...

Resolution
Don't want to be waiting to live,
Don't want to be waiting for death.
Though the tide repeats outward and back,
Take a stand on the sand as it shifts.
Look around and be thankful
For this
May be all that there is.
Then the sun is the jewel that I own,
And it's greater than all that I don't,
And the moon is the pearl that surpasses
All others wherever they be,
And the water that sust...

Whatever You Do
If you don't like it how it is
Stop complaining.
Stop praying, start living
Stop hoarding, start giving
Stop wanting, start enjoying
Stop waiting, start playing
Stop asking, start finding
Start hoping, stop minding
Stop whatever you are doing
Start changing
