Irony

How many times did I convince myself the false truth?
I was lonely.
I whined and dined alone.
The world appeared as a place for settlement.
And you came about,
Put your arm around me,
From that single moment,
I knew I’d be happy,
We laughed together,
And truth was made,
Irony set in,
This was still the false truth,
I was lonely,
I still whined and dined alone,
It wasn’t settlement,
You didn’t put your arm around me,
I wasn’t happy,
I thought we’d laugh forever,
As all things,
I should have recognized it eventually fades.

Bad Eye

The light scattered,
Was it a disco ball?
Perhaps it was the flicker from a movie projector,
Or maybe the glare off a shiny guitar,
It glistened,
That light,
It shined,
Right into my bad eye,
My mind grew befuddled,
That light,
It blinded me for some time,
But as it ended up,
That light scattered,
Because of the first,
Because of my favorite,
Because of the disco ball,
You shine.

1,2,3

It’s love you see,
Or atleast I do,
When I walk up and down the pavement,
Class,
Work,
Study,
Stress,
But you are always with me.

You See the Sea

You suck me in,
Spit me out,
And twirl me all around,
I surrender you sea,
With you I’ll be.

The Song

When I think of you,
I think of white,
When I dream of you,
Your face,
It shines,
When I call your name as time gets tough,
You save the world from falling on my shoulders,
And so I thank you for all that you do,
My life would be a bland affair without you.

Power of a Dream

I’ve often fell entraced to the simplicity of a dream,
The winds push across the land,
Running from something,
All the souls of our ancestors,
Compacted into a force,,
And they swirl,
Twist,
Blow,
And glide,
To set me free across the world so wide,
They push me away,
Away,
Away,
To a place above the sky,
And my mind drifts away,
To a state of solitude,
Where the forceful winds pushed me,
And I breathe,
And I breathe,
And I breathe a triumphant breath,
Until the last one chokes,
I’m sent spiraling to my death,
The world becomes quiet,
And my fate becomes clear,
I join the roaring winds,
I push across the lands,
I take away the fear.

The Monkey

Hope is fickle,
One day we want this,
The next day that,
So let’s be happy now,
Realize we hope for what we cannot have,
It is not a pessimistic fight,
But understood in a realistic light,
The true idealist can certainly even see,
You’re the man for me,
I’m happy when you make me tea.

Weisse Rose

A fleck of frozen,
Crystallized like a magic labyrinth,
It floats down,
Down,
In the dark of night,
Collecting into heaps in the depths of my mind,
A message from above,
So strange,
Like those ashes once,
There is pain,
I think of all the unfortunate folk subjected,
To those words similarly whispered by my mother,
So I scan the world around me,
The flecks of frozen are speaking,
They want to be free,
They keep falling,
Thump,
Down,
Thump
Solidified in my mind,
They want to be free,
But this world is so unkind.

Anxiety

Just breathe,
Inhale,
Your sorrows are gone,
Exhale,
Peace of mind sets in,
Second breath,
You’ve got it made,
Clarity presents itself,
Contentment is clear,
Take on the world,
Breathe.

Him

It was so simple,
So sweet,
The world was at my feet,
But your face turned so cold,
I ran away,
Slammed the door,
Cried until my eyes were sore,
Sleeping pills became my friends at night,
And during the day,
I walked around in fright,
Hoping to find someone to understand my pain,
But I was never good enough,
They all thought me insane,
It all spiraled out of control,
I was incomplete,
Disarray,
Still something kept me going,
I’m glad I’m alive this day.

My Problem

I don’t know,
You hear this as a refrain,
A look like a squint,
Discombobulate,
Perhaps I don’t know,
Like life is one big trick,
So I think,
I thought,
I’ll ponder it all,
That’s what I know,
I know it’s true,
It’s you.

Live

I set off on a journey,
Twas my last resort,
I didn’t care where,
I just wished to experience new things,
And come back and report,
So I set myself free,
Discovered a new land,
And what I found,
Was a value very grand,
The people understood me,
I found myself once and for all happy,
And upon my return,
All I wished to do was learn.

Nostalgia

There’s a lot to eat,
Everything to see,
We dance around and around the cobblestone street,
The atmosphere,
Like a phonograph aring a simple tune,
Is all encompassing,
But will come to an end soon,
Wait,
Just wait,
A moment and a day,
So I can experience what I want,
And then my mouth will produce the words I wish to say,
So long dear city,
I’ll keep a part of you with me,
And when will I come back?
Well,
We’ll just have to see.
