high Q

leaves Fall with the breeze
Winter leaves as it pleases
but teriyaki  

untitle

I am pretty sure that I am pretty sure
though, if you listen to me once I'll fool you twice
never mess up more than thrice because failure won't suffice
only victory will last so they fabricate the past
make us think we had to act the way that we acted
jackin' all the land that they used to dance on
evil expansion just give me my sandwich
I will eat your pack of lies
please first cut it into fractions

simple

your face
a refreshing drink of water
it gives me hope
it takes my breath
it satisfies

contained in your smile
I can see life
stickin' its tongue out
as if it knows that
my love comes out in eruptions
bubbling up from under nothing
there is no cover for my thunder

my storm is for all to see
it starts in this sea of fantasy
and works its way passed my teeth
into the air my thoughts repeat
instantaneously til your ears perceive
my foolery, my fears and dreams
all out for you

I know it seems I'm broken
but please don't throw me away
I can fix it with the day
you never can tell what the sunrise may change

change is the only constant

up or down
we fall and blame the direction
its all the same once dissected
they stopped the rain so they could measure
all the problems painted by our pleasures
if not through pain then what are you suggesting
we grow from
if no sun shone over my prose my ink'd stay frozen
no matter what light you've chosen
I don't want to be golden
got a shirt with some holes in the shoulders
where I keep the broken pieces of my hope
I hold them not knowing
but knowing that His love is holy
and my heart is holey, He fills me up wholly
it's nothing I could show you
I barely understand myself
I barely understand myself

typey typey

there is white
there is black
then there are humans
prying our way from between
trying to become one or the other
dancing in the grey
light and dark
we are stuck in this duality
searching searching for some unity
hoping the truth might grow out of me
but nothing will come from my stupid needs
I talk raindrops thinking about the sea
I think breeze knowing few can see
I breathe hope holding pounds of grief
I write words leaving out my crudest dreams
ending this is outside my reach

sunshine

light is beauty is truth is light is
beauty is truth is light is beauty is
truth is love is beauty is truth is
love is work is truth is love is
work is sacrifice is love is work is
sacrifice is peace is work is sacrifice is
peace is trust is sacrifice is peace is
trust is knowing is peace is trust is
knowing is why I'm still showing my face
no peace no trust
it's got to come from us
the light is here
its been knocking for years
just wants to see your beauty for the truth it is
seasoned seas know that
love isn't real without some work
and
your sacrifice won't go unnoticed
I don't think anyone was looking
but
we can feel it
in the way you don't trust yourself
as if your peace was out of His reach
