Return to Sender
I wish I could put every lonely moment on paper..
Gather up all the excess in my thought process and put it in a heavy envelope..
Enough to weigh it down so it won't fall open again.
I wish it was enough to sound out the words that tell the story of this last year,
and what it's been like being here..
Because if I could just get these moments down on paper maybe it'd be enough.. Enough to measure up,
to everything I've felt.
Maybe then my pen I could surrender,
just after scrawling out,
'Return to Sender'.

Revolution, Redefine, Inner-peace
Take me somewhere deep
And unburden me
Disassemble, Incomplete
Silently a masterpiece
Sew imagination
Reaping Vindication
Sunlight for the soul
A thought on which to grow
No more body,
Only mind
Sooner we look,
Sooner we find
Revolution:
Redefine.

Rise and Fall
Standing in the rain, alone
Just taking it all in
The cold that's sinking to my bones
Sometimes you have to live
To feel the thunder in your chest
The icy water through your breast
The threat of nature
And the beauty, as it washes all away
Every second thought and second coming
Of every ounce of pain
Sometimes you have to dropp your arms
And surrender everything
To the rain
To the one thing that knows you best
Because like all things in life and death
It will rise and fall again
Easing to the heavens
And falling with each breath
Naked and alone as the water washes me
Down my back and through my flesh
It's the only thing I need, that can heal me
Pray to God that it never stops coming
Until I'm clean
Clean of everything

Sad Eyes
There's a sadness in your eyes
And it carries into mine
They say I look just like you
If they only knew how right..
There's a slow deliberation
That weaves into your step
They say I act just like you
They don't know how right they seem to get
There's a quiet double standard
That hangs onto your smile
They say I smile just like you
How can they be so right?
Worry lines your brow
And touches your wise eyes
They say I take after you
Oh, I think they're right.
