A day in the Life

Asleep

Fight with me

Tell me I’m wrong

Find all my flaws

Let your anger out on me

After everything is said and done

Fall into my arms

Tell me you’re in love 

Find all your words with me

Let your fingers intertwine with mine like reaching vines

After everything is said and done let your eyes meet mine 

Fall asleep with me

Raw

A heart heavy from past love

To yearn for a love that never was

Your essence expelled by your lungs

To breathe them in to make you whole

For their being lifts your spirits

But if only they saw through your eyes

They could see your raw flesh exposed

Your bones shake to their touch

Their kiss

Their bite

Of your young lip

Could take a single drop of blood

Pure of sin and full of life

But they will never understand

For they hold your heart in their palm

And can mute the beat

Or pump the blood through those veins

For your body is no longer your own

To yearn for a love that wishes to breathe existence

A heart heavy from past love

Fact and Faith

We live in a world of believers

Believers who live for faith and live for facts  

Facts and faith attempt to tear each other apart 

A part from the wars waged on different views on life

Life has a way of give us reasons to hate and to love

Love does not follow any rules

Rules don’t provide sustenance to love

Love is what it is both fact and faith  

Top of the Hill

I once climbed to the top of a hill

And met an old man who’s wisdom could kill

He spoke of a tale of a younger day

On his travels in spring nights of may

Elderly but so alive spoke of his long life 

But had one special story about his wife

He told me he met her on one rainy night

That he tip his fedora and drove her to her flight

Her car had broke on the side of the road

To which she said thank you and a heavenly kiss bestowed 

He knew she was special from then on

As the weeks followed he tended to in his lawn

To take her the one perfect flower

A kiss at the front door so sweet it lasted an hour 

Days turned into months and one day he pulled out a ring

On the top of this very hill on a midnight in spring

For the first time in his life he felt so in love 

They traveled the world from below to above 

Had so much love to give 2 children were born 

They all grew together and their love never torn

Together they knew nothing could tear them apart 

But on the day of her passing it broke his happy heart

He told me that a love so true is a rare find

And to always embrace her because true love is blind 

Story

Tell me a story

Of how it all started 

How the fruits grew in your garden

Tell me when the fires started  

And you knew

You weren’t guarded 

Sing to me

The highest notes

Then drown me

In your sorrows most

Tie it up

And lay it down

In the place it once was found
