  • Learn To Fly...


    I don't know where you are
    I never do
    I can't be there unless
    You want me too
    You're absence says to me
    That you do not
    And that you do not need
    A thing I've got
    I did hang on a while
    I tried to show
    That I could love your kind
    And not let go
    But my hands can't hold on
    You're slipping fast
    I've lost the strength of my
    Initial grasp
    I promised that I would
    Not let you fall
    How could I know it would
    Not be my call
    I tried to dig you out
    And pull you through
    Whatever's covering
    The best of you
    I had such high hopes for
    Our shade of blue
    But I've failed you with the
    Best I could do
    So I release you now
    And cease to try
    While floating to the ground
    Please learn to fly

  • Rose In Waiting...

    Red rose on black background picture

    A thorn for every year
    A single red rose growing here
    Too difficult to pluck
    Too beautiful, it's just my luck
    Intimidating but
    Too intriguing to leave alone
    And left to wonder who
    Would dare to take me for thier own
    I try to stay in bloom
    Though I do feel like withering
    I occupy a space
    Surrounded by a gathering
    Of those who'd like to try
    To pick me just to say they did
    But once they stop and think
    They find that they can't handle it
    It takes a strength of mind
    That normal people don't possess
    A tough courageous hand
    To uproot damsels in distress

  • Safe Distance...

     

    Stop at a safe distance

    Come no closer

    Your last living image

    Could be a missing person poster

    You see I have this ability

    Or more like a tendency

    To make certain people disappear

    Touch me in any way

    Cause me to care

    And just like that you vanish

    Into thin air

    Soon after we become friends

    You'll fade to black

    Never to be heard from again

    Surely it sounds absurd

    So imagine how it feels

    To have all ties with everyone

    Evaporate at will

    It's an aggravating existence

    The eternal pursuit

    Of mirages

    So stand within earshot

    But for the love of God

    Not within reach

    Touch me in any way

    And you cease to exist

    And unless you are ready to go

    I insist

    Stop at a safe distance

    I don't want to be held responsible

    For your disappearance

  • Painted Thesis...

    Current mood:inspired

    I'm slippery like bacon grease is
    Rubik's Cube with missing pieces
    Trying to get the gist of me is
    Trying to prove a painted thesis
    Point me out like "Do you see this?"
    Shake your head, you "Can't believe this!"
    Survival of the defeatist
    Frown with smiley face prosthesis
    I'm not known to be facetious
    Ask my other face if she is
    "Saditty" like wines and cheeses
    Move you with psychokinesis
    Chilling like the winter breezes
    Ghetto hot like mad degreeses
    B is who she be, believe this
    Color me a painted thesis
