A Home

We build these houses
        to shelter our bodies
They give comfort through all of the storms

But we still need a home
        for our feelings
Thats why I've written these songs

Pillows and sheets
         bring us comfort
Our minds cannot sleep anyways

Love and desire
         still haunt us
But these songs will give them a place

Look at those buildings
         they're a symbol
Yet our feelings never grow old

Though these poems
          may seem trivial
How I feel won't be bartered or sold

Elephant

The moon shines on the glass
Dawn is coming soon
My thoughts in endless wandering
There is an elephant in the room

I have all one could work for
Hear that happy tune
The sound of waves exploding
There is an elephant in the room

A future filled with promise
Flowers are in bloom
The spring buds are swelling
There is an elephant in the room
