Letting go and letting God,

All those feelings she couldn't afford,

Whenever she wanted the sky clear, she came here,

The only place to lay all her fears,

After a busy day 

when to stand it is difficult to stay

even there may be some delay

still we'll manage our way

let's go home!

Blood is spilling out of the vein you just severed

You didn't want it to end this way

You just wanted to be happy and normal

You were different and depressed

Life is so hard, but in the game it was easy

The Mystery 

A child’s smile

The lover’s kiss 

Tragic loss

Momentary bliss

The instant our eyes met

Changed me forever

Fresh tears shed

The moment we gazed

At each other

life is slowly rolling around

the sea is sometimes calm

but all the storms 

 and evil winds 

won´t break the human bone

 

 

in frosty ink

i sometimes sink

but evermore i will

find a shore 

to strand upon 

and evermore i´ll live

 

and life rolls on

and as i stand

my feet caressed by sand

i watch as human

rid of words 

slowly sinks inwards

Do you know how funny it is,
To have a friend just through all this?
Trusting your secrets to a new one,
seemed so awful yet it stand.

He was a kind of guy who's so smart,
for he write poems that touches my heart.
Though those writings are not meant for me,
yet it made me fell as if it was me.

At the end of the road,

Pavement expires,

Sand begins.

Sea breezes spray,

Children run,

Seagulls play,

Fish get caught,

By serious men.

Books get read,

And castles built,

While footprints fade,

At the end of the road.

Some people try
To figure us out.
We sensitive men
Who wander about
Making living with pen.
In lives filled with goals
And family and friends.
All taken in stride,
In the tone of our voice
The words of our choice
The songs that we sing
Intense listening,
We are gentlemen.

The closer to blue sparks

The electric light that shines only dark

And cell of pure hell in a steel bar cart

Halos in heaven are surrounding you

Fit for an electric crown

Politics is all about have versus have not

Who gets ahead, who waits in line

Privileged ones who demand, until caught

Whose wants trump the needs of mere swine
