Chatting.
Takes two.
Having fun.
Takes a few.

A day out isn't quite the same,
Its like a thunder storm,
Without the rain.

But what can you do?
What else have you got?
Talk to yourself?
Pretend they forgot?

Its not quite the same,
Having fun on your own,
Its not quite right,
Being alone.

Friends are they key,
The stars in your eyes,
The light in your lamp,
The truth to your lies

It's always been a lie.
I was naive to even try,
to all along comply,
when I heard the hue and cry.
I continued to deny,
he had a finger in each pie.
So eat up while you lie,
in the bed you made, where I hope you die.


My hopes are to never see him again but dying sounded much more poetic :)

How can the sun be so high in the sky
While i'm down here dull, barely alive
Why does it get to shine so brightly
When I try my hardest and all my efforts spite me
How can I be like these rays, born from stars
And nourish life, let the fools look on Mars
No rainbow or aurora would compare to me
I would make certain everyone was aware of me
But I can't make present the shades or color
And in darkness my brilliance fades & suffers
So I hide til the sun is shining overhead
As i must hide until the day I am dead
Cause I know that I'm no star
But **** physics, why can't I radiate as far
another rewrite...that's almost exactly the same

In-between what space
The vast expanse.
Colors around the bend reaching,
Reaching for the emptiness
Each end concealed with a door
A filter for the corruption of evil.

The lone man bares the harsh pilgrimage
From one door to the other,
He strides through nothing
Peaceful.
Ever so empty
Feelings abandoned
Forgotten
inspired by the wonderful  Aldous Huxley and his quote -"If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite”

With every passing instant i'm,
seeking the sanctity found in rhyme.
Hardhearted like in my approach,
I may look weary but i've never lost hope.
It’s only cause time has turned me cold,
so many tribulations, you'd think i was old.
So with every breath, I seek experience,
steadfast like, honor gains with perseverance.
From the sun's descent to its rising,
everything inside me begins devising.
All the life within me is surmising,
any doubt I am now disguising.
I hope to hear all of the words,
as loud as the hills beckon for shepherds.
And I hope to grasp the heart of each line,
and define, the knowledge left to the whims of time.

I'll forget these stupid feelings for a while

and plug in my headphones.
Let the music take me to another world.

She's the girl with the spring in her step,
a posture and attitude that radiates confidence.

But she doesn't have any of that,
take a look inside and she's held up by paper and twigs.
