I lived today. I breathed. I moved. I was. I hope I helped.

Seems like I’ve tried so many tim… To kill myself but just won’t die Chosen the worst paths and the cri… And always out the other side

I crave the things I like And not the ones I don’t If that makes me an addict, then Apologize I won’t

Elaborate mazes Of conjured phrases Tickle the ear Of literary peers But don’t read the type

You say that you enjoy people I don’t think that is true You want to be a pure steeple And lord it over fools

The world that I was born into Is not the world I want I work to try to get back to A one that values plants

Each moment at hand Is open invitation To the promised land

To see the best of me Play a symphony That moves my feet

I knew I loved you When I looked in your eyes Recollection of places Not seen in a while Bright, sunny, and free

When we realize That our imperfections are Our emperfections

You don’t know me You don’t own me You don’t show me Paradise Only tease me

I’m not the one That I should be I’m just the man You came to see Imperfect you

My daughter said the other day I’m glad my father ran away So we could find relationship Without my mother ruining it

If they push you Push back And go for the throat

I need to get him out So he feels the treat Of an empty bladder Grass beneath his feet
