The simplicity of life
The love of a brother, the warmth of a wife
Neither can be lost, it can only be found
The beauty can only be crowned
Cherish the moments it will help keep you sane
It can disappear in a flash, a reckless train
Fresh pajamas, a scent so serene
Homey attitude, nothing more serene
The warmest of showers, so divine
Melodies of the water drops
Splashes of simplicity, it stops
A warm body of relaxation
Breezes of cool air, bountiful sensation
The waking steps of a downward staircase
Life passes us by, a meaningful chase
Thoughts of importance arise
Sounds of birds, a still resprise
The simplicity of life is within you
A difference between getting up and feeling blue
Utter simplicity.
May 23, 2013Truth and Love
April 21, 2012I never really understood what beauty was until I met you
The apple of my eye, the fruit of my basket, the blossom of my tree
Life has a completely different meaning when you’re in it
Even through tough times and struggles, the sun still shines because of you
The very thought of knowing you are around makes me better
Stripped of everything I love, you still give life so much meaning
As I lay out looking at the trees and the mountains I now understand
I understand why god created so much beauty
It’s so I could understand the value of someone like you
People search years to find useless things that stimulate their happiness
Others look for worthy things, simple truths and love
The very thought of you is Love
Every word that leaves your mouth is Truth
I’ve always told myself that I wanted to die a passionate man
Dying in passion and for passion
I may have not found my passion but I certainly found you
Truth will appear at the right time
For now I will hold onto love
Maybe in good time it will lead me to the perfect world
And the truth in life that i seek.
Cave of Wonders
March 12, 2012I searched everywhere
The valleys, the rich mountains
Crying for help in the hardest times
Searching for something so surreal
Something out of this world
Searching and searching, I was lost
What I was looking for, didn’t exist
The clouds moved, the sun blazed
Levels high, there must have been a creator
Was man the creator?
All the skyscrapers fascinated me
The worldly people, caught in the moment
I couldn’t be like them
To be a shepherd amongst sheep was a challenge
Rather than tending to my flock I tended to myself
What I was looking for was myself
Through discovery, I found a gem
A diamond in the rough
Found in a cave of wonders
I was the cave, my motives hidden away
How foolish!
I looked to the depths of the ocean
The peaks of the mountain top
Furthest horizons
Only to come back to see myself
Him, Laying beside me
Amongst my thoughts, dreams, and desires
Seeing with his eyes
Hearing with his ears
Feeling with his touch
The cave of wonders was myself
Fueled by his beauty
A supernatural generosity
How gracious a life
Young again
March 9, 2012As the music bleeds, the heart sings
Bee stings, goosebumps for the skin
Kin, the emotion binds lovers
Uncovered soul, how transparent
Clear as glass, a world that will last
Everlast, a punch for the joy
Never alone, young again
A handsome little boy
Bliss
March 8, 2012There existed a man who stood as a lion
He could neither be tamed nor caged
Enraged, but a patient soul
Deaths around him took its toll
Rung, he understood his confusion
Life made him pay a price
Expensive, he took a chance and rolled the dice
Luck never seemed to stop and say hello
Goodbye, all had fallen down
To look up, was his only hope
God have mercy, God give strength
Weakened, he never gave in
Out with the good, he found truth
Happiness is a peace of mind
Love, a connection created through this
Look to that, there stands an island of bliss.
A Dancing Gazelle
March 8, 2012Stares so powerful, lightning strikes
Thunder claps, winter nights
Cooler than a breeze, white as snow
Smiles that light the sky, moonlight glow
A gazelle dancing to the wind, sounds of her feet
Legs bending behind, a zealous beat
To look and wonder, truly a disguise
Depths certain, how mysterious the eyes
Shatters the soul, energizes the mind
Soothing a voice, even for the blind
To stay awake and see, truly a blessing
A hug and a kiss, certainly worth caressing
Wrong Decisions
March 5, 2012She swore it was her last ciggarete, her family saw
her family regret. She always tried to fit in,
But it was a battle impossible to win.
Friends like sheep certainly not of shepherds,
When she needed them most they ran like leopards.
A world full of nobodies and nothing
This worth is certainly not worth loving.
Conflicted and certainly confused
She followed the wrong road and got abused.
