needed evening

no sick day is fun with illness but this isn’t
even the very worst one
eagle eyes like yours see through to the meat of the matter
don’t think anyone could distract me from this
even heating up a little lime and sugar
drenching the chicken with a big grinning apple
everything pineapple colored is catching my eye
vines of grape folded over the edge of the bowl
envelope every bite with laughter and softness
now it is like waiting for cheese to melt
in the warm spring wind you put your feet up
nothing pleases me as much as your tiny grin
getting the time with you is perfect

show her

she’s beautifull
she’s incredible
she’s powerful
she’s amazing
she’s forcefull
she’s wonderful
she’s surprizing
she’s inspiring
she’s glorious
she’s captivating
she’s spectacular
she is right beside you
she is all you ever knew
she is so true
she is the one who shows you
what every one you ever knew was close to

daily persistance

during the movement of the musical chimes
across the clouds which hide stars
if you hear a soft growl it is me on the prowl
letting the wind open up all my wings
yellow starburst lights illuminating brick and
purposefully resisting the drive to think too much
every step bringing the night closer in
riddled with details that all mean new energies
staying in view of that bright and shining moon
is it suprising to you that everything i want is to be near you
sometimes i dream that you and i are on a beach
tasting ice melting around pineapple and black cherry
after an evening like this the sea food tastes better
next to the tree the crow statue sleeps
choosing this night to see around here with new eyes
entering a wooden door for our time to arrive

when heart the fire

while the road yawns out in front of you
having a grin in your eyes is vital
ease into this year you got going and get into it
no dream in unachievable if you
have faith in your abilities and know yourself very well
emotions can be a gift as well as a torture device and
across the room even you can feel when i am
reminded that the ego of others can be quite cruel
take your spirit strength and make it into a shield
there are times now when i am surprised to find i am
having to remind myself that i am surrounded by friends
eventually even the best parties have to end
finding out how to break the code again
introduce a brand new peace of mind that i made
rich in flavor that happiness can provide
even better than honey in your tea

happiness deferred

having seen so many walk down this path before
around here people don’t talk about thier mistakes
perhaps not learning from them is an easier choice to make
playing as hard as you can on broken glass
if it was you there would be no reason to ask
now you know better than to struggle through each day
empathy being what reveals how much people are hurting
sometimes things in life want to break you down
so you have to be strong enough to persevere through
doing the best that you can to help others and stay true to
ending this negativity that society heaps on top of you ’cause
finally you saw the glow of inner peace again
every day now like a gift from a great friend
really staying strong is no longer a tough hill to climb
requesting as much of your time as you wish to provide
each minute with you is bliss that helps me survive
don’t ever doubt what i do for you

passionate disease

put your hands in mine
and lets get ourselves up out of here
some of what happened just might be at fault
sliding down the river-covered mountain recklessly
in my mind representing my ambitions
on my heart the symbol of dedication
nominating myself for the craziest year award
and when it hurts and you begin to doubt then just
take some time to change what is in your brain
every day is a brand new universe yet
don’t you ever forget there are people who’d do anything for you
issued a few songs that explain every single thought
stamped on the last door you wanted closed
energies can tell you as much as a conversation
after you see through people not much surprises anymore
so step forward and kick butt at your life
every minute is yours to claim, so just do that!

end of the month

empty your mind, come back to where you’ve been
necessary for you to arrive at peace with those
decisions just like when you accept your mistake
over the roof of hours when you felt you
finally knew just how bad a choice it was
that never made you hesitate before yet you
haven’t contemplated where you really were
employed to serve someones every wish will
make you question where your desires originate
only you are responsible to say you
need something from me and please procure it
then i will feel as valued as i should and
have a spring in my step as i hurry to you

inspiration road

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

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

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
