enter resting

A clock is unaware of when it is wrong
it just trudges forward along with the time of day
leaving any passer by or innocent eye witness less the wiser
so how can we be so sure that we were wound correctly?
Spreading knowledge like infections that are misdirected
headed for some impending event that will soon take over the present
all wrapped up to give to the past to remind us of the ignorance
or to warn us, you can think outside this box, but you are just locked in your own
clawing at your soul
trying to make it whole
but for too long you have played this role
now it is all that you know
you have to harvest that which you sow
so let go
of what could have been
what matters is what you can show me

and those alternate presents are quite phony
at least to this reality, that we consider lonely
since this is the only dimension to us, must be a
solitary existence for this plane we dwell within
hopefully it doesn't fall to depression
and end this session of presence with an overdosed injection
of the wrong intentions
so we best start giving it some attention
to ease the tension and mend some
instead of buildin fences
let's break down theses expectations
and just love
just love
just love til you got no more blood pumpin oxygen from your lungs
just love like you only have love for breakfast lunch and supper
just love cuz the world is void of the stuff
and you are the only one that might bring us back up
so just love
even when the world shoves you into mud
scraped elbows and ripped jeans can't be enough to keep you
from just loving even the roughest
just love cuz the world is forgetting how
just love until the world is emptied of frowns

just love
even though I write cheap rhymes
just love
so that others may see the light
emanating through the night
from this love that stays quiet
just love
no matter if they're wrong or right
sound or frightening
hideous or sightly
just love
everything within your sight
with all your might hold on to this kite
the lightening storm between our eyes will have it excited
flying high and reckless, so hold tight to that string
and just love everything you get a chance to see
before white knuckles lose the fight
to the windy skies

just love because He did
God I mean, the divine lover of us all
the breather that brought us about

looking behind all of the rules and regulations
and searching for the spirit within the pages
it could be found that love is all He wants from this place

now

I'm not trying to imply that
I am the perfect illustration
I just have an idea
that seems like a straight gift
this wild ocean we call emotions
is best traversed with a row boat
filled with anyone that needs a ride
with or without the tunes

just love regardless of their preset stations
just love the few and the many
the rude and the friendly
uncool and the trendy
let your love flow out and become plenty
just love cuz that is why He sent me
to try and just love and maybe show you how lending love will bring unending gratitude
I'm not the raddest dude
but I got love inside my attitude
and its like I got some magic shoes
keepin a pip in my step even if I get some tragic news
it's sad but true
life without love is like a color at its flattest hue
or a terrible movie you had to sit through
just to have the girl you liked ditch you
so just love all of the stitches and the bruises
all the glitches and improvements
stop worrying about what's missing
and just love
