At some point I will learn a greater way

To save what cannot be saved 

And everything I felt rings true

It's even!

Positive and blue

Blue as the ocean 

Blue as the soul

After the blow from what I thought as true

To lean on shoulders bruised 

Bodies buried

Days turned from me to you

Burned

A smile shared

A hug for the fuck you

Lost in the huddle

Aimless, sifting through moments

On a wish that didn't come

Sun to moon, moon to sun

The proof gets easier to drink

What goes to waste is the taste

The drug of choice was you

The high unaffordable, the destination unavoidable

Reaching hands warmer than what you offer, except

for the in thought of what once was

And those thoughts---we lived!

Urgency pushes, and the for...

The last time I saw your face it was a million miles away as you made the descent and took the last train ride home. I see that hand wave every night I sleep. To say my life is good short changes all we made. As you fade the memories resonate. The words that no longer flow from my mouth hold tight in chest to one day find release through anything that will inspire me as you did.

I felt something today like I haven't felt in ages,

like a heart was calling out to mine, as mine was to it

Came in hungry not asking for food, but you fed me, and it was nice.

Felt it before but not on so many levels.

Aspirations of greatness were clear.

Wasn’t just me that let it go.

Reaching new heights, futures, it was all so full and so right.

All the ideas became just that, ideas, when one heart left the equation.

I don’t think we learn from the hurt.

We eventually j...

Who's trying to fuck you, or get a free drink? 
If you wanted me, you would be here. 
No excuses because love does not allow it.
Am I taken for granted, or is it taken for granted? And which is worse?
I once chased the feelings that invoked me to be a better man.... for you... because of you.
Now I chase the idea of what that is.
I chased us, I lost us, is there an us?
Through your words I ...

Hours on hours, page on page

What’s thoughtless is always displayed

Stay open to the suns great rays

Let the rhythm rhyme and try not to lie

Never move by the edge of your seat

Honing your mind is going to take time

The moon rises for the sun to set,
To offer rest, continuous light
And we can find each other on the other side
Push
Pull
Don't let that low crush this high again
It's only living and it's not cheap, it's not easy
Let's surround ourselves with what inspires us to be.

and a day for the city,

is not lost on... but in,

You.

dreams end and begin anew,

a face to base light upon, 

You.

Loose

Carry on and carried off

Its not here to found

Mouthfuls of earth to loosen up

Shake away what’s put away

What a foolish thought, devoted and dutiful

Adherent as an opponent

So fast to sit down yet we go…

Off…

Forward…

Near…

Where we can hear… clear

I stare at the sun, the moon, fuck it! Let’s just say the sky
Grab the wheel and hit the sand after losing a year
I saw you not so long ago but that was not here
Every thought that doesn’t include you is a good one
I took it up so high and you came down so low
You knew it true when you asked for life and I completely let go
Was it to much
Is it too much
Are we too much
What is too...

There is fear in the night and it's dark when you can't sleep, words slip in and without motion we move.

To be kissed by the sun,

And delicately loaded into song

Through soft voice you speak,

And fade as quickly as you came

Repeat until focus goes elsewhere

In the mix, I will one day hear you again

Its the days I see washed away
I have got to take it just to hold what I believe
As I’m leaving I don’t want to shine
When I’m leaving I am going to shine

I still believe in this

Tomorrow brings in nothing
No cure for this slow high
It’s a heavy ring that put me to the sky
We once laid open reaching for supply
Held so tight to chest, now fear blinks its eye
As I’m leaving I don’t wan...

I watched the rain wash away the filth and my mind rolled away the days spent wasting like some carcass on the road. I will begin anew! said our hero. I will begin anew! The deafening onslaught of hopelessness will rear its head no more to me! I am hope. I am light and life…  no more will hell have its fury on me. The heavens shall open this guise. The masks I feel I have worn are torched and the ...

Valley

Couldn't say normal
Couldn't stay straight
I'd like to think i could lie if i knew it meant being with you 
Everything here is pretty cut and dry except for the tear that hangs from an eye
This whole thing makes me weep and standing with you won't keep me safe
When you said deep i knew that i could dive

  as heavy as i am 
  i won't make a sound as i hit the ground

Empty is perspective
Meeting you was festive
One in a crowd
Celebrate each goodbye
Didn't think I'd meet you, let alone love
Forget the reasons why I would leave
Come back and tell me how I'm going to keep you

Hearts swell in the sight of what we describe as beauty
Every cell explodes as our moments appear
We have everything

I didn't come here for you
I came for the day
It's where ...

Will white liquor kick her?
Will there be a saving grace?
Will I be able to spell out the words that crowd my sky?
Everyday your number isn't up you walk into the world
Nothing to gather and no one to do it for
Purpose defined by every move

Let us stay
Let the lights rays be our every way

Run home for a taste.
Your kiss on my lips is a burn.
The burn on my lips is your kiss.
Every look around is the last, until the next.
Every cherry I took started with defeat, for i stake my claim on another's land.
This cold isn't so bad when my glass is filled with gold which I dug for... in another's home.
The outcome I must own, It is mine, mine alone.
Your passage with me in the end is...

Blood stains the sheets and everything I am.

That blood we spread from head to toe and in between, and questioned where it came from.

It came from love!

It came from us!

We take a seat when the skies about to explode
Why take cover when you can look up and wait
Life still happens around you when you're not in it
As possibility dies and the heart gets cold instinct no longer serves you

Let us hold a light to warm sorrow
Let us hold a light to crack the darkness
Let us hold a light to carry the future
Let us hold a light to save what lost you

If only you sat with me the last few years...
The rhythm of my way you could see,
The void drew in a thing so close I only imagined would exist today
I threw out words I hoped would not fall by your ears...
To open any form of speech to draw us near 
And today ---- with keys, we can do whatever we want

Everybody's tryin to get laid,
What happened to falling in love?
And what happened to me that laid will not equate?
Spoken word without action falls short with hearts expansion and seed becomes seen as something that grows, not a load to waste, throw it aside, not inside??
Hearing breath and the sounds that travel through bring a sense of peace not known to be true

Locked in on how this sid...

OF ALL THE BEAUTY IN THE WORLD

I never gave you fear.

I only ever gave you, yourself.

So many nights I have prayed,

So many days I have been left with question.

I lay down this fight, it’s not in me.

The repeats I can no longer bear.

And you’re not really here.

You were never really there.

And may I ask why?

What was the point?

What made you fee...

The sun sets hard, crushing the days hopes and bringing life to the shade we hope comforts us through the night.
