Growth.
Going, you know that you have gone.
Walking clockwise around yourself
I’ve learned that I know nothing
Other than that sometimes you don’t need to know

You need to know calculus and how to sing in 2 different languages
You need to know how to dress business casual and shake hands and beam people with your smile

But when do we learn how to comfort ourselves
Comfort found without the BPA of anything above a 0.8
Who taught us that hearts beating fast will become familiar.
Warm, even

I didn't wanted  more ...i wanted all..
Was It is habit to love you
Every day..?
Poisson that i drinked every night...?
Every morning..

I don't know...

Raining again..
God is caring...
No moon tonight ..
Just dark...
Sticky..
Empty..
Space..
And
Stairs to your soul...
I am coming up..
Unwanted...
Uninvited..
Guest..
To kiss you..
First
Last
Kiss..
That is my poison
Today.

Don't hide
You know You love me.
Don't run
You know You love me.
Don't stop
You know You love me.

I won't deny
I know You love me
I won't escape
I know You love me
I won't refuse
I know You love me
Yesterday?

I am waiting...
Since first kiss ...
For Tomorrow

If I die today,
Speak nothing more than truth,
I didn't die a hero,
I didn't miss my youth.

My legacy in fire,
Burn away the chaff,
not the greatest man you knew,
But missed the makers wrath.

So say "he's a broken light
that craved to mend himself.
He trusted in the Lord who saves,
considered Him true wealth."
I don't want people to pretend I'm a greater person than I actually am when I die. But to remember me with complete honesty, as a flawed person who felt a need for God.

Thanks for reading.

Don't kiss me tomorrow.
If you can't.
I will.
I want.
Don't see me again
If you can't
I will.
I can.
Don't touch me today.
If you can't
I will.
I will.
Don't love me back
If you can't.
I will.
I want .
I can.
Not today.
...Tomorrow ...
The day after today ....

Todays a day I wont remember,
Tommorows probably the same.
Memories burn,
Remembering not what you want,
But what you think you want.
Sorting, categorising,
In my mind.
Who knows what has happened in my life?
Who knows what's happened in todays tommorow?

Yesterdays a day I dont remember;
Full of fear and sin.

Sin a word I always have destested.
You believe in God.
I never did.
As a young child always questioning,
What is this all about?

Heaven and Hell are both the same.
Invented by them,
It gives them hope you see
I guess I understand,
But the word is just another I hate,
I guess I understand.
I wrote this a while ago when I was having trouble with my memory its better now.
Today is the day.
I am a mayfly.
I have no memories of growing up,
and no expectations of growing old.
I have learned nothing.

Today is my day.
I will not sit by.
Swiftly I live, there is no slowing up,
and no time for my feelings going cold.
I will be something.

Today is the day.
I’ll reach for the sky.
Driven only by instinct flowing up,
to unknown destiny of glowing gold.
I am everything.

Today is the day.
I will live and die.
I’ll have seized the day just by showing up,
ignoring fear to live by knowing bold.
I won’t be nothing.

There is no other
The one and only is you
You are my soul mate

Life with you is fulfilling
How did I get so lucky

Promise me today
There will be a tomorrow
Promise me today....

Life turns with you there
When are you not my side
Life turns the wrong way

Promise me today
There will be a tomorrow
Promise me today....

Promise someone...

As a lover says I will return
Just before the extended loss of stay
Be it echoed over mountains past
Or etched in stillness contemplation
The tongue in all of its self-proclaimed wisdom
Finds no words less, no more deserving
Then the faithful say
And cry on high
Saying Maranatha – Maybe today
