I pour my heart into these prose Because I feel I need to go Into the darkness that will show What needs to surface from below

I write poetry Put my heart into it ‘Cause there just might be Someone that gives a shit

I’ve lost my joy Not sure where it went I can’t remember It’s sweet smelling scent It had to do

Really want to ask you out ‘Cause I feel a special bout Of the things we dream about Discipline and love devout

Never seen Better scenes Than red lights On green trees

You’ll have to take It slow with me That’s just the way Things have to be I’m sensitive

I’ve never really cared about me I know I’ll be fine I’m the benchmark of resiliency You’re who’s on my mind

You ever seen A sky so blue Picture heaven In perfect hues Makes you think

Don’t take the past away from me It made me who I am I like the one I’ve come to be A truthful, loving man

I wish that you could see myself The way that I see me Then maybe I might be the one That you would call lovely

I’ve lived my life And seen some things Heard bitchin’ tunes Tasted my dreams But if you want

I am homeless Not because I live in my car But, because my home is in the arm… And I forget what that feels like

It’s never been about the same I’ve always played a diff’rent gam… And when you think you’ve got me n… I’ll show you something unexplaine…

Ever been great at Balance? Then you understand Why I tip my scales.

I like to watch... an ant traverse a grass forest a flower unfurl in moonlight a muskrat reap trifolium a leaf quiver in mid-day breeze
