What does it feel like when time is on your side
What is beauty if not what society tells us
And love, what is love without hesitation nor regret..
We lie so much to each other, well don’t we?
We make promises we can’t keep
Tell tales of things to come
Build up, then swiftly destroy the base
Good company is rare
Common sense is even more rare
You find this then you hold on to it
It was dark outside it concealed my face and the look in your eyes..
Whatever you do, do not look down.
It could all be over very quickly
the sweet satisfaction of forgetting
the bliss of not retaining anything at all
If I could lie there and be taken away
become weightless and meaningless
I would give up to what we fear the most
These days it seems alluring maybe
If it were just simple, yet I know too much to ever be so numb
I come to myself
The walls the sheets and bed so hard
don’t take away what I have left
And they echo real loud, it’s been years, it’s been years
I haven’t gotten any wiser
Only recently I’ve woken up
Thank you.
I see you there, what you could be..
And some things I can’t believe anymore
Soon this will pass away to be buried in the books I’ve kept on the shelf
While your thoughts all sound the same
My thinking was a curse to you
Up all night so small in it all
A speck of dust in it all
We are recycled things
From one to the next
Such flexible beings
In it all, we all walk in it all.
Can we give it up
what so easily destroys us
regurgitate it all… Move on.

They say time tells all
and it does, it determines all
Is not seduced nor made to wait
Why do I waste it
I’m grasping at it, longing for it, more of it
In love with it.
——————————————–
They say I’m delusional
I crave romantic things and gentle words
they say this is dead and not to expect it
The greater the expectation the greater the disappointment, isn’t this what they say?
I’m just a kid they say. Silly at that.
Where is the sin in wanting more and rejecting less..
Shhh.. Say it real soft, real slow
Your thinking, it’s changed
Rejoice
Your alive
Now scream it out loud
run with it.
Your a lot more than you can show
I’m awake.
My options are limited
When I say I’m sorry I mean that
Should I just disappear and start all over
Clear my mind and put in work
Decrease decrease
I once believed you
It was me all along
So now maybe i’ll go..
so quickly we forget
try to justify why we do what we do
when really we don’t know ourselves
and we move along
we are blind
WAKE UP.
you would kiss me very softly as though you were thinking about it
then you would get lost in it
you would take my face in your hands, look me in the eyes and smile
I would smile back circling my fingers in a downward spiral down your back
