inspiration road

Posted on May 16, 2017 by jaybeasley2
into an hour of listening and not thinking
needing only to be in an energetic song mood
sometimes life’s choices are like a great journey
placing your body and soul in the hands of the road
it is amazing how singing can comfort you if there’s
rain mixed with snow that you cannot see through
access to a movement that modifies
then you think instant changes only happen in movies but
if a flower shows you how it died, do you fix it?
opened the door to the pieces of doubt you instigated
nothing even matters, even waking up feeling ugly
riddled with thoughts that shouldn’t even be there
obsessed with a problem you yourself have created
and know it didn’t ache but you didn’t need reminding
doing anything i have to if i can have you in my arms again

untrue conditions

Posted on May 14, 2017 by jaybeasley2
until you see where we are at next year
normal little evenings will not drift away like this
these two miles under my feet are nothing
right when eruptions of energy take over me
up in the air a machine carries people distances away
endurance is a quality best paired with deep thoughts
covering the walls with holiday decorations
only that holiday was over many months ago and
not one night will the moon know the difference
during the meal, though, i know i will sense it
impacted by the amount of time i have waited
to rocket away and be by your side once again
introduce a good inspiration into your life
offer up the peaceful minutes in the forest
now that your memory is clearer than ever before
sometimes a little gift means the entire world

big mean amounts

Posted on May 14, 2017 by jaybeasley2
buried deep in the history of this state
in the sunlight colors make their own decisions
greeting the evening by laying on the floor
making me look at things in my life like never before
entire ways of seeking the future that was pictured long ago
and i know when i see something it means a lot like
neat and orderly when cleaning house but
all over the place when having a good time
moving as quick as i can after a painfull weekend
open your eyes and show me that you see
underneath your words exists a sea of insecurity
needling up some growth by being ever so patient
trees that can show you more than a per son could
sit under the branches of some friends and see

automatic emotion

Posted on May 12, 2017 by jaybeasley2
as the questions arrive at that space in your mind
use those tips of wisdom you draw upon when
terrible circumstances approach for a quick visit
only to decide to stay for a few weeks
making a choice to find out where you wish to be
after a final vision delivers a spiritual message
taken to the fresh air you didn’t know you wanted and
into the light that wakes you up again
coming back to the thought you had last time which was
either the place you sleep or the first place you open your eyes
many of those recent days you should have been corrected
out in the area where it is hot enough to slow you
tore a bunch of energy right down and claimed it through
intimate meditations while sweat pours out
off in the distant continents of my brain i know
nobody can do for you what i can do

reality adjustment

Posted on May 10, 2017 by jaybeasley2
really the best day is when you accept
ending one path is the beginning of another
across the world and in every corner it is
like even the smallest seed can be the tree to make a hill erode
inside the soul of all the positive spirits is knowledge that
the deeper tale is always there no matter what or when
young or old or everything inbetween and
after too much truth everyone must take a moment to
digest and adjust because the whole world is arriving
just in time to show you how the story should go
unless you give yourself over to it, things can feel different
sometimes what you see is very hard to believe
those are the times you go with what your mind needs
most of the nights should consider an apology if it
ended without knowing what the last thing that happened was
nobody can ever replace you
the world is improved with you in it

display discomfort

Posted on May 9, 2017 by jaybeasley2
dont tell me what to do today because
i have the feeling i would not be very good company
sometimes history sneaks up on you like a fly
possibly showing you how you have made this mistake already
little moments of realization letting in the light when
all this day i needed it so very badly
you have to fool me into thinking that you can love
doing all that you can to keep me here
if you really thought about it then you are going to become
so aware of all the things done right and wrong
can you act like i am important to you
or is that on the verge of asking too much
maybe i can return to when i was more zen
find the inside voice that guided this vehicle
occasionally it returns to me how i was once treated
ready but still often late and often odd
take me with you wherever you go

reading into everything

Posted on May 7, 2017 by jaybeasley2
revolutions of the world seem fast
evertime i would give anything to slow them
as agression is my constant opponent
dont ever remember it if it hurt that bad
incidents that would make yearning thoughts hide
nearly as scary as that last time you were drunk and i
get that our teasing is accusations of cheating but
if you abuse the privledge you recieve then it vanishes and
now you have to deal with the reaction you get
terrible storms have long since passed
only those who hid under cover made it out
everybody avoids assuming the worst unless
voting or dealing with thier favorite bank
evidence is not as important as feelings in that court
ribs that feel a little bit sore on me because
you had a good time on me last night
the fact that i didn’t have as good a time as you dont matter
having an odd filter but at least i have one
included is the ability to feel for other people
nobody can escape every storm yet
great spirits can make it arrive at your door

ready quickness

Posted on May 6, 2017 by jaybeasley2
red faced a little when i have to make myself
easily resist the temperment i was taught to love
around the same time i need you is when
diving into deeper waters is foolish
your eyes can no longer bring me to my knees
quizzing myself on all the things that have changed
under my arm your fingers slowly uncurl
inner rainstorms have brought my mind a soundtrack
can every day become this blazing fun or just
keep up with the level of unpredictability
needed to these arenas of not clock-watching
even the trees make weird shaped roots
sometimes no matter how perfect they are
some of the clothes aren’t worn like before
environment wishes you good will
so enjoy your time to kill

distracted permission

Posted on May 6, 2017 by jaybeasley2
don’t tell me what to do because
it isn’t like we have never been here previously
stomping around town late at night
today is the final month before we could
really start to have a full pantry once
again and the sun will take its time sliding out of sight
culminating inside of a warm oven full of bread
those are the instances when it seemed too right
every time we embrace my heart takes flight
doing that dance that makes you happiest
perhaps followed by that dinner you like
emitting the smell that no person can resist
roasted veggies and garlic to a slow jazzy beat
maybe the song will last long enough this time
inclined notes as i hope to be in your century
submission caused by the effort of the quickness already
still cant get enough of you after a thousand days
incidents that make me smile at you happen often
off switch has been broken ever since we met
nothing means as much as time with you

disappearing potion

Posted on May 3, 2017 by jaybeasley2
diving into the depths of all relief from sadness
inspired to be where i was at that time
sunsets that disappear when i open my eyes
around those fireworks that are gone in suprise
perhaps i assumed far too much
playing games with the fun we have each night
even when we do not know where the wind will carry us
again you are becoming loving as i die
ready to follow you into the heart of the volcano
included in the frequent conection of heat
nobody lives forever but you make me feel like i could
get back in the proper headspace
personalized intuition symbols flock around and
often i wonder what the futre will be
the only time i heard you say
include the sun in your every day devotions
one minute after you come in the door
nine kisses will arrive on your lips
