Silent Sunshine

Suffering in silence
Silence is protection
Protection is a wall
Four walls make a room
The room has a secret
Secret is locked up
Lock requires a key
Key to Life is suffering
Suffering in silence

Occupy Me

I am bizarre
I am intimidating
I am the anger in danger
I am damaged goods
I am past my sell-by date
I am an enigma
I am reserved
Nothing is for nothing
Life is worth it
No matter what

Free Bird

To fly like birds
Not of this Earth
To cry like doves
Not heard since birth
To be stripped of securities
And still have worth
Freedom lives

Reasons to

To feel undamaged
To feel pretty
To feel whole
To feel alive
To feel light
To feel grounded
To feel wanted
To feel worthy
To feel accepted
To feel inspired
To feel loved
To feel

2 in 1

Bordered world is unbound

Soulmates all around

Hearts together are not sewn

You and me are not alone

Finned

She doesn't let anyone in

Her house it seems is full of sin

She secretly wants to be thin

As she sips on her tonic and gin

Pondering what could have been

Why does she play the game that no one can win?

Let Me Fall

Let me fall
So that I can rise
I may be small
Spirit has no size

For better or for worse
Like an old abandoned building
I will get rid of this curse
No longer a dirty thing

Unharnessed

Kerouac Bum
Will I make it in this slum?
What am I pretending to be?
Nobody can see me
I stand undressed
My relationship is a mess
Looking for the courage to be exposed
This direction will have to do I suppose
Vulnerable soon-to-be road carcass
No shining armor to stop the bus
Van Gogh had the guts to cut off his ear
What will I do in this new year?

No Way Out

Looking for dry land
Brother, can you lend a hand?
While the copyright is pending
I'm working on a happy ending
You know what this is all about?
I'm lost and there's no way out

I swallowed the bait
Sorrow is my soulmate
Three lefts make a right
I think I'll clean my gun tonight
Now you know what this is about
I'm still lost and there's no way out
