Give a Care

I I visited a place; where no one gave a care

They didn't wear nice cloths; they didn't do their hair

They hate each other's guts; no one's ever fair

When there was a need; they they'd only stand and stare

No one tried to work; all their time was spare. 

Cars are always parked; they're not going anywhere

Content to live their lives; avoiding pain to bear

Life is nothing more than a sordid self affair

They're always all alone; nothing's ever shared

The only cards they play is the game of solitaire 

They can't experience love; their hearts are in despair

I tried to help them out, but they acted unaware 

If someone listened up; I would just declare

Where no one has concern; love is never there

Savoring

I write a letter every day

It seems there's still so much to say

Conversations every night

Just to make my heart feel right

It's not sad and I'll be fine 

I'm always staying in the lines

A void inside for a while

Memories that make me smile

Discoveries oh how I love

Savoring the little stuff

Time can still be a friend

Exposing things that never end

 

Seasons

As the leaves shed their green

And we lose the warming breeze

Like a kite the hammock swings 

The birds we love no longer sing

Mesquitos cease to bite

Geese begin their flight

We'll be alright

Seasons come, refreshing change

Loss and gain in full parade

If we fight and fret the loss

Joy and hope become the cost 

Look ahead, a welcome sight

Time will come for our delight

We'll be alright

 

The Cure

You're acting so devine

Gotta keep my thoughts in line 

Seeking for a sign

In the stars

Hate to be so emphatic 

But my nerves have kinda had it

Maybe I'm an addict

So they say

Your thinking I'm demure

But I've always been sincere

I'm just looking for a cure

Can we find it? 

Claims

Reality claims that we'll never be

I am a dreamer and you are a dream

We're still together in some galaxy

I look to the stars for our story

Every night When I stand in my yard

I watch how happy we are in the stars

Lay my head on the pillow and visit you there

We'll hang out together where nobody cares.

Words and Rhymes

Poetry is heart in words 

Words that pierce notions 

Words that heal and settle

Passion into language

As love celebrates two lives

Words and rhymes give hope

Raining the greatness of life

Onto parched souls 

 

My Machines

My machines and I work through time

To do the tasks how we're designed 

When things don't go the way we will

My machines and I feel no guilt

We're anchored to the ground and stay

When things we love drift away 

The gauges tell me how they feel 

When nothing else in life is real

I speak my mind and they will hear

We never fight and never fear

Always strong through any weather 

We are wearing out together 

Through the Haze

I caught your gaze through the misty haze that was life

We could recognize through soulful eyes 

We belonged

When I lay my head the words we said

Linger still

When the world goes dark inside my heart

You're the song 

The More

The more they love, the more is said

The more they care what's in their head

The more they care the more they feel

The more the same two will reveal

The more the same the more they see

The more the pain when they can't be

The more the pain the more they cry

The more they love how hard they try

The more they love the more it's great

It's always worth the work it takes 

Writing Spree

Virtue strove for higher ground

Nobility as its crown

Raise the standard all should bow

But passion said " I want it now!"

Rules were made for us to break

No one really likes a fake 

Pleasures here; we should partake!

But virtue said you ought to wait

This civil war inside of me

Causing such anxiety

No answer satisfactory

So I am on a writing spree 

  

 

 

Sunrise

When helping just hurts

Trying brings pain

If I choose to ignore 

Let things remain

Indifferent mind

Hard as I try

I can't change my heart 

It won't say good by

So go on ahead

Label our dream

Give it a name

Whatever it seems

I won't give up

Our love's like the sun

Let the earth turn away

A sunrise will come 

Unique

Doesn't really matter

How I try to be unique

I hear my mother in my heart

And my father when I speak

Forte

Complaining's not our forte

But our hands are grasping air

We reach for satisfaction 

To find it isn't there 

We try to be the person

In other people's brains 

But Who can satisfy it?

We all want off that train

Hearts were made for love

And time is running fast

We want to use it all

And also make it last

Choices can be hard

Reality the same

It doesn't make it false

No one is to blame

Cutting off what hurts

keeping what's been earned

Doesn't end a thing

As long as we have learned

Love always endures

Will never be dismissed 

We just travel on

The other person missed

Faraway

Everyone sees that look in her eyes

A faraway thought is there

With every pause life brings

Her eyes look away and stare

Could it be me in those dreamy eyes?

I don't have to dream alone

She's always been in my thoughts

Whenever my mind would roam

My life's intention

Every desire

Is to do what I can

To find that fire

We're not good at working things out

I can act like the worst buffoon

But I promise with all my heart

Not to give her a single wound

So if you see her dreaming

Gazing out into the blue 

Please just let her know 

That I am dreaming too.

Search

I search in every look

Every smile

Every move

It's not that I am anxious

to experience something new

But everyone I see 

Makes me think of you 

This Heart

What you are looking at

Is an impervious heart

flexible and sweet 

Pulled so hard

Years ago

It almost tore 

Now a strong survivor 

It is ready to love

Without worry

or concern

This heart is full of fun

And mischief

if you see tears

They are from effort

Cause it will get

What it desires

Patiently 

Over time 

Or quickly 

In a moment 

Don't blink 

Don't fear 

Don't worry

This heart is strong. 

 

Characters

Characters impose on our minds

Uncaring, players emerge

But the image I have of you 

Will always be sweet and pure

I know your heart 

You have shown it to me

You know my soul

Since we share one
