Hope is a fire that life can put out
But it can be rekindled that I don't doubt
The first thing to do when you start to feel down
Is to accept your life for what it is right now
Right now you are aching and empty inside
You start to imagine how it may feel to die
You then take a look at the moon in the sky
Feel your heart beating let tears fill your eyes
Embrace the feeling even if bad
Because your alive and its life to be sad
Know that your different and that's what makes beauty
I assure you that no one feels quite what your feeling
Your soul is an artist that longs to be free
So don't hold it back, let it rage like the sea
Another piece I wrote when I had just overcome a stretch of depression.
If to love you was a gamble, I would be all in
If wanting you was taboo, oh you know that I would sin
If it took miles and miles of climbing, I would not give in
Just to hold you darling I would **** a hundred men
But I know that as of lately you could never feel the same
So when I am around you, girl I go straight insane
I want you to be happy and happy you do seem
But I've never felt the same since the night you stayed with me
Did you want to crush me, did you try to lead me on
Or was I just an object to you, something warm and strong
You gave me hope of having you because right then I did
And despite all the pain it put us through I'd do it all again
Because it seemed so real
So genuine and clean
You made me so **** happy
Time spent with you was a dream

Soon I will find love again and probably get hurt
I hope your there to pick me up when I fall in the dirt
Maybe we can't be together, yes I understand
But I don't have to own you, I have no demands
I want you to be happy and I want to move on
But please don't ever think that means I want you to be gone
I still want to laugh with you about this mess called life
I still want to listen, and offer up advice
I still want to be a friend, not just a passing nod
Don't let one mistake you made make all that's right feel wrong

 Dec 2015 rootsbudsflowers
winter
the land rolls beneath my feet,
but i continue past defeat,
where i am so eager to complete
this one task i must repeat
to go on, and delete
the cheat that is so bittersweet.
I am on a rock that's flying through space
But all I want to do is just see your face
No moment in time could ever replace
The way that I felt within your embrace
I like drugs. But love is by far the strongest of them all.
Your greatest teacher is your past
But you must make THIS moment last
No matter if you win or lose
To be here now is what you choose
Experience the bliss of living
Never stop your constant giving
Spread your joy and light and passion
Sport it like the latest fashion
Sin
What is sin but discontent
With the world and your regrets

Spinning on a tilted axis
What could we do to ever have this
Shot at life and all that happens
Can we know if fate or accidents
Would lead us through theses narrow passages
Down the paths of loss and damages

Through the valley of despair
Please keep going don't stop there

Find yourself on the highest mountain
Right beside a clean clear fountain
Live right now for simple presence
Existence is your holy essence
You are sinning against yourself when you choose to dwell in negativity.
