i remember the day i first missed you
it was a day like today
not a sunday
not a monday
just another day like today
another day when i miss you
i work the mine as hard as i can
until the aches and pains take away
thoughts of anything else
i focus fanatically on the job at hand
because that is how i become lost
in the importance of that which must be done
sore muscles distract from the need to understand
what happened
missing you fades away for a little while
but at the end of each day
that missing you feeling finds a way
back into my heart

That made me cry.
Attempts to guilt or shame another into behaving the way one wishes is nothing but a control mechanism used by those who feel incapable of being who they want to be in order to feel comfortable with their own choices. Misery loves company. A truly free being allows others to be exactly who they are. All social controls are born of fear and I can hear you saying, "but if everyone could just be however they wanted to be it would be a chaotic and dangerous world". It already is and it's the fear-born controlling behaviors causing it.

My mind made it all seem real
real enough to build on
Shifting tides and grains of sand
Holding on until it settles
settling is the dream
One child exits
but I doubt it will ever settle
How long can I hold on?
Forever if I must
Honesty can be effectively utilized by the brave
but when the target escapes
how long could YOU chase it before giving up?
One is in the building, I can not give up
I won't
So I dream of better times
and the end of times

My eyes may be open but I refuse to see
the me I thought I know is just a mystery
me and a boat and the ocean tides
still no match for the idiot's chides
up jumps the moon absorbing the light
giving off steam in the fight, fight, fight
let the record play its soothing song
though I know better, I can do no wrong

a poet without a home
is just another bum
standin' on the road
with his thumb out
the past don't make no nevermind
and the future is just another ride
a little further down the line
if the cars won't stop
for a tired old soul
there is always the train yard
for a trip to anywhere
where there might be a meal
and a smoke
and a job
just lookin' for
the land of milk and honey
where the downtrodden sleep
a little more easily
'cause sum1 needs to listen
to stories about the days of glory
before the fall
into endless shivering nights
alone in the train yard
is just another bum
standin' on the road
with his thumb out
the past don't make no nevermind
and the future is just another ride

don't cry for me 'cause when u do
u r only crying for urself
'cause can't u see
ur the best part of me
don't cry for sumthin that never was
'cause i was never there
just another wisp of air
that kissed u on the cheek
on the way to somewhere else
and if u want a palace that's what u got
all i need is u and me and a place to be free
and if that place is over the horizon
that is where i'll be
waiting for u
the sky is our flag
and the earth will be wapped in silver and gold
'cause the earths is worth more than i can say
but you are worth even more
so i will clothe you in purple
and sing the songs of days gone by
and of days to come
the earth and sky are more valuable than silver and gold
'cause this is where i found you
when the sun rose
on a quiet world worn out by too much war
the children looked around in angst
wut was the fighting for
a piece of dirt in a far away land
a grain of sand that could be had
for nothing
and for this kingdoms rose and fell
towers were built
time stood still
and if the journey was for naught
if it only brought us back to where it all began
won't the fool say
u have been wrong all along
u didn't have to leave
and the children will have to laugh
to keep from crying
'cause the journey is the destination
____________________________
feelin' like nothin's new
missin' you
'cause you made me someone
i hate late night
feelin' like almost nothin'
i've got the late night
feelin' like almost nothin' blues
almost nothin'
should feel like freedom
but instead it feels like prison
cold
nothin' is somethin'
i could live without
i gotta figure out
how to stop feelin' like nothin'
how to stop missin' you
how to lose
the feelin' like nothin' blues
________________________________________
rising at the crak of dawn
i thought i was only 4 steps from freedom
until i looked in your eyes
and i knew that we r already there
in your eyes i see the sky
the way i remember from 2208
and the beauty of life where everyone
is free to be who they have always been
BABE
itz all so simple
one last life here and now
and when itz done
i'll awake in your arms
where we have always been
u and me
together for eternity
that's all the freedom i want
that's all the freeom i need
we have arrived safely at the zero point
the universe holds its breath
and waits
nothing is static
all is fluid
the exhale must arrive
at the same time that it always has
y fear
it is no accident that u r here
listen
do u hear it
the distant sound of rushing water
when the universe exhales
it will be our turn to hold on
to the point in time
where it all began
and that moment
is always
right here and right now
forever

i don't know what to say
i don't think of u that way
we've been friends for a long time
so i shouldn't be surprised
by that look in ur eyes
i don't know what to say
it's obvious from ur smile
you've thought of this for awhile
but you've gotta understand
how it doesn't fit the plan
of a simple life
devoid of the strife
that can unfold if we r too bold
so if i don't know what to say
i hope love will find a way
for things to remain the same way
as before

i lost a few moments
the mind flew away
you looked in my eyes
and poof
i was sucked into some world
of eternal timeless beauty
this could be dangerous
sometimes i need to know where i'm at
and what i'm doing
i wouldn't mind trying to stay in that perfect place
when looking in you eyes
i'm free at 8
let's give it a try
u and i can take a ride reserved for the few
who know what to do
when the cosmic glue
begins to come undone
and eternity whispers
the words forbidden and hidden
from mere mortals
words reserved for those possesed by love

The circles tighten
The cycles bind
Still, I cannot picture the end of time
No frames in sight
No easel
No ease
The painter is painting outside of the lines
and here I sit and sit and sit
Life's a pile of festering shit
berduhderder!

Tentatively me
tentatively you
You think I'm playing; I think you are too
because
tentatively me
tentatively you
can't construct a tower 'til
we deconstruct the walls
of
tentatively me
tentatively you
You hide there and I'll hide here
just want a hand to hold; Don't you?
Peeking through the cracks in the walls
you see I cut my hair because he asked me to
Rapunzel knows, but she won't speak

eccentric electricity flows between us
eclectic mysteries just out of reach
beckon us forward to teach that which we already know
in our hearts
a sympathetic vibration between two minds
a thought and an emotion that intertwine
like two strands of dna
niether by itself can say
follow me
this is the way
but the two strands in harmony
the thought and the emotion
and the two souls in harmony
the man and the woman
know what it is to share perfection
even if the perception
is only for a moment

I freed it,
Beyond the fields it ran
unearthed and unladen
I did not want to let it go
I knew I must and told it so
You killed me,
Into the woods I fled
weighed down and full of woe
You shunned and threw me with delight
and told me then of no respite
Dual mirrors
what I see; what you see
Cohesion never real
However far we go away
This will forever be our play

thoughs flowing ever outward
never in danger of collapsing inward
carry a torch to light the fire
i know u can still take us higher
one long lonely nite lasting forever
one long lost day to aspire for the light
is it too late to admit you were right?
god i hope not
all i want is what you want
and all you want is the impossible
so i'll travel thru a seemingly endless maze
hoping to obtain a small favor along the way
so that when we meet face to face
you can smile and say
i told you so
