Bravery

There are two kinds of bravery. The first kind is being bold, doing things that nobody else would dare to do. This can be taking risks, or putting yourself out there. The other kind is doing what you think is right, not really caring about how the wind blows. You can be one kind or the other, you can be both kinds, or you can be neither. I like to think that everbody is both, at one time or another.

Silence

And for a moment I can hear it
I can hear the silence
Broken
Just broken by mere existance
The silence is broken

Pure Bliss Continuos thought

and for a moment i'm there in pure bliss wrapping all around me like a break after torture thats what it is, torture of life is wrapping all around me, feel it, feel it, but right before i can appreciate it its gone and back comes the lights the noises and trauma and i'm gone

My Dishonest Path

Nothing but empty road on both sides
Oh well, better than all those lies
Secrets with which I live, die
Every morning I must wake to
So maybe this path is best left deserted
Wouldn't let anybody near me be hurt

Hypocrites

There are more hypocrites in this world, or at least our country, than you can imagine. Maybe you are one. You could be rockin’ out on your priceless iPod, to a Kanye West song about the evils of diamonds, but look! You’ve got some new studs in your ears, or maybe bought some rocks to buy back that ‘special’ someone. Possibly your shaking your head about the arrogance of others, but planning to shop in your Uggs later. Maybe catch a game with some guys instead of going to church on Sunday. There are a million combinations of hypocrisy- we all use more than we should everyday.

Let me risk

Free me
Stop protecting me
I need to feel it
To take down my umbrella
Jump in front of a bullet
Take off my seatbelt
Remove my shackles
I need to touch something
Pain
Risk
Hurt
Joy
Die again
Move, move, Move!
Let me take a chance
I need a consequence!

Fall into love

Flying through the air
Melting clocks
Drowning lies
Crowds of haters
Pairs of lovers
All the same
Reaching out
Grazing your cheek
Pulling back
As you fall
Fall into tomorrow
Yesterday
Fall into love

What happened to the world

What happened to the world
That people hide from love?
What became of the epidemic
That brought humanity together
Where did the instinct to survive disappear to?
We are losing life
Taking sharp corners
Generating a risk too contemplate
Simply by living

Feeling Guilt

Feeling guilt
Is something to tackle
Something that reminds those who have come out on top
Of those who never quite made it
An excuse
To humble yourself
A mirror image, twisted
Of praise
And forgotten peace
Guilt is fuel
For an empty conscious

What you are

Did the sky fall for me?
Washing down
What was left of the surreal lives
The perfect choices
Content, imperfect love
You must be a dream
Only a vivid image that
I just wish would stay there

What do you do when trust goes away

What do you do
When you can’t trust the world
The sky’s gonna break
The grounds gonna fall
Love songs don’t make no sense no more
Shadows forming everywhere
Shaping my worst nightmare
Listen
Just listen

No, nothing can change my world

No, nothing can change my world
You may mock me
Tear me away from those I love
Fear me, show me something worthy of fright
But no, nothing will change my world
Violence and peace may be introduced
Yet my universe will still be static
Shining love, glowing hate will be revealed
No, nothing changes my world

To Be Normal

Live a life already lived
Mapped out ahead of you what you will
Wear. How to fix your hair
Who to walk away from
Body language cool distrespectful
Uncaring. You turn away from others
So that you will be included in the exclusive
Get drunk but hate the taste of beer. All
Because you want to be on top early
In life. There is no turning back but
Who looks to the far future
When you have to figure out how to dress
tommorow

Fall into Trust

And I want you to pick me off the floor
Right now. Open all your doors right now.
Show me how to live so simply
Just stay with me

I have been walking blind for a while
Hold out your arm for me
Go the extra mile

Trying to stay alive but I don’t know how
Fall into your trust
I need to open my eyes need to pull away
Climb out of your arm start over again

Speeding to an Empty Road

But you will imagine
The glory that was felt
Face paced, head to toe
Filling me up till I was
Restless. Wanting more that never came
I endangered all for a second of
Pleasure. Understanding nothing just pure bliss
One track mind no future to turn to
The past is dead the present is
Now. I take a breath the race paused
Looking back back back to an
Empty road

What Was Once Beautiful- Poem

At some point
The roses will dry
Bliss will evaporate to storm clouds overhead
And shall you take my hand in those times?
Sensibility was a virtue
One that he could never lead me through
Petals crumble
They will spread to the wind
Ashes, ashes, what glory they once brought!
