CIRCLE OF LIFE

Born in a planet called Earth,
Perfected with a thing called heart,
I was given a chance to live,
With a family I was permitted to love.

My soul chose this cast,
This body as its host,
A mysterious world to face,
With an unfortunate pace.

I don’t know what they see in your eyes
Because all i see is it’s broken twice
Do i have to apologize,
If all i see in it are alibis,
I really don’t know why you can’t look at me,
If you look in my eyes i could distort you from this reality and make you hear my harmony,
 I’ll treat you with a never ending decency and deal with love with less deficiency,
to make love not mandatory but just lovely full of amnesty

I want to say 'more than words' to you
I want you to know me 'more than you'll ever know'
I wanted to be with you 'everytime'
I dont want to go 'back at one'
So 'this I promise you'
That 'before I let you go'
I just want you to 'stay the same'
'My love'

Aren't we all just the best of savages
cloying at the darkness
with our pointies?
our pretties?
Our thin beaten arms?

Grateful.
Is a word not dignified enough,
To explain.
The way my heart swells,
the way my breath slows,

She'll Soon Be

Hey little girl sitting by your bed
I've seen you before
I've seen you in your momma's eyes
many times before
When I see you in my life
oh it feels just right
like a man who has everything
now I have it twice
Stay with me little darling
please don't ever go
when something scares you in the middle of the night
I'll be sure to show
I'll teach you how to be brave
how to make it through
I'll stay all night with you my dear
until it's over and safe for you
Now it's time for daybreak
soon she'll be getting up
I'll never what she told me
when I tried to put her little shoes on
she said, daddy
I'm all grown up

among the bones and sawdust
piecing the skulls together with sugar
and painter's tape
            believing in the solitude of  La Llorona

Land sliding across streets and forested mazes
blazed in sunsets 
your eyes are the lingering blue of 
a fading winter
and your laugh is the witches calling on march
like revenge

this is the laughter of clothing
and all the sorted “I ams” 
that are not
trapped between materials

When being human takes its toll,
Go, unleash your unicorn soul !

Shed those tears, embrace your fears;
Scream until the universe hears.

Shout for all things bright and bold -
Halos, moon beams, fairytales untold,
Sparkly stardust on a sky of dreams,
Rainbows over sun-kissed streams.

Guard it close protect it from all the hurt and pain 
Follow the stars give it to God 
Promise you this so much more you will gain

There is no up
There is no down
Can't catch my breath for I hear no sound
A reach, a stretch
Emptiness all that is left
Engulfed manifesting a monster
There's a belonging in being lost here
A chasm of my own consciousness
I've lost my sense
The light has faded
