beginning with now
in the beginning of now
all is as is
we are as free as the wind
we are grounded by self-pity
in the beginning of nowall is as is
we are as deep as the sea
we are drowned by delusion
in the beginning of now
all is as is
we are as distant as stars
we recluse to our minds

love and hate
love is that of bitter-sweet
pleasureful surface
gracefully deep
hate is that of a foolhardy-weep
powerful feeling
frivolous seep
love is that of a beautiful-hurt
florescent bloom
enlightened dirt
hate is that of quarreling-twins
identically lost
nobody wins
love is that of dreamful-bliss
passionate touch
impossible risk
hate is that of urgent-zilch
trifling matters
spoken filth

when i grow old
a sack of pus and blood and bones
a skull of vastness, thoughts, and mold
a heart of love that's grown so cold
is this my fate when i grow old?
a quiet home to wait my day
the day that i go on my waymy quiet home will then be sold
is this my fate when i grow old?
a mound of ash that once held life
is carried by my widowed wife
this is the saddest tale i've told
is this my fate when i grow old?

special
special you are
especially you
don't let this worldtell you who is who
you are who you are
you'll be who you'll be
you're special enough
especially for me

these three men
the angry man shouts hate aloud
the lonely man has been put down
the tired man is named the clown
excuses put them in the ground
the accused man is quick to blame
the guilty man he holds no shame
the judging man shall build his name
these three men are all the same
the quiet man is slow to speak
the patient man will take no peak
the upright man will turn his cheek
simplicity is theirs to keep

pangea
we have come much farther than history knew
yet we live in the past; change is past due
assembled dissections distant our lands
a line on a map; a gun in my hand
we have come much farther than history knewyet we live in the past; change is past due
these borders, these outlines must come to an end
united as one; unanimous friends

esoteric lovers
you administer your aching conclusion
that my mind is so fickle; runs off delusion
you have your theory tremendously wrong
i speak from my heart; it translates in song
you say nothing in life is ever quite certain
uncertainty leaves you with nothing i'm certain
trust me, believe me, or never let go
of all the ideas that keep pain afloat
i am so happy that i have you dear
the days are just moment; the minutes like years
this world will be ours if you can let go
esoteric lovers; we whole-heartedly roam

unanswered
who am i?
who are you?
what are we?
what to do?
what was then?what is now?
where is up?
where is down?
where am i?
where are you?
how to win?
how to lose?
how to live?
how to die?
am i wrong?
am i right?

modern-day weep
lost in the sequence of up-to-date thought
frustrated minds insufficiently taught
silencing thunder; digital light
comical plunder; chemical fight
subconscious motives driven by greed
to live is to die and to die we must bleed
sounds of madness; centuries deep
self-induced sadness; modern-day weep

love is free
if love is just love.
then guns are just guns.
trade ammunition.
fire with doves.
love mends the broken.
bringing on peace.
healing the nations.
let us be free.

education of a dreamer
hopelessness arose; there was nothing i could do
it crept in naturally as any moment would
the room began to rearrange the lights began to shake
my mind was half awake; this dream was my mistake
you told me of a child; a child to be born
i told you i would care for it; you told me no with scorn
the room began to rearrange the lights began to shake
my mind was half awake; a lesson i must take

unexpected
the unexpected wave
will wash us all away.
unexpected we will stand
in our self-proclaimed
quicksand.

tree
i see this tree
i see how he's dying
i beg him stop crying
he sheds all of his tears in fall
winter's kiss is near
i see this tree
a home for the smallest
this tree is a promise
even after winter death
life can be redeemed

subconscious subtleties
the sun falls yet again
yet again i fall asleep
these dreams consist of feeling
subconscious subtleties
for moments i'm alive right there
surrounded by fictitious cares
is this the realm where i belong?
where yes is no and right is wrong

ecstasy
a child's eyes gaze with no surprise
no concepts or views to scrutinize
ecstasy lost by discovering death
we learn that we die as we take our first breath
a middle-aged man will try to stay young
he lost half his youth yet he's only begun
ecstasy lost by self-evident tearswe learn how live once we lose half our years
a gray whiskered man acknowledges fate
the time it draws near yet he sets no date
ecstasy lost by regretting his days
he learns how to die as he sits and he waits
a spirit set free is entwined with the breeze
drifting with glee as it leaves behind grief
ecstasy found by shifting apart
we learn that it ends with the place that it starts

save me
meet me where the earth is rearranged
find me where this logic is not strange
tell me every thought that runs so deepsave me before i dare take this leap

my last desire
i'm sitting here on a dark cloud
shielded by the rain you catch only glimpse of the fire
it burns away all doubt
it boils the blood of all impurities
i am like a bird that has never learned to fly
your heart is a wishing well that grants this dream for flight
spreading my new found wings
i feel as of a peasant discovering he is king
as i let go of the hurt that i have carried for centuries
i discover a new clarity
i encompass a new hope
i renew myself of fire
your love is my sunlight
you are my last desire
