(Dedicated to Linda...)
Traveling with flat tires
Trying to start fires
In the hearts of those who listen
Listen!
I might have something to say today
But that day is not today
(Maybe it was yesterday)
But anyway..
I need more time to think
And drink
The oceans, rivers, and seas
And plant seeds
I’ll plant poet trees
Full of poetry
So everybody can see
The beauty
In every word we say
Everyday
We just forget to listen
Listen!
I know what it feels like to be at the bottom of the hill
Life is too short to just stand still
Asking why can’t we just rebuild?
Trying to keep each other filled
With emotions we forget exist
So wrapped up in selfishness
That breaks into hopelessness
Trying to cope with this
Closed openness
Forgetting to listen
Listen!
Maybe it’s time to hear these words I say
Life is beautiful in every way
Appreciate everything that comes though your day
No matter what everything will be okay
Just listen!
Listen!
I know you’re life is not mine to live
So this is the only advice I have to give
Follow your heart, never give up, and
Listen!
Listen!
Somebody might have something to say someday
Maybe that day is today
(or maybe it was yesterday)
But anyway
Just listen

Live/Love/Breathe

The smell of bars and new cars
Always gets me thinking about driving
forever and ever
And never
Having a destination
And driving around the lake makes me wonder
What it would be like to drive in
Dive in
But not because I want to die
But because I want to learn how to swim
And live
Life
And love
Life
And breathe
So deep that it takes an hour to leave my chest
With no regrets
Taking steps into new days
Not knowing what expect
Except acceptance of who I am
I understand
I may never understand
Everything in my life
But I don’t have to stay up all night
Questioning the answers
Of my future
I just have to
Live
life
And love
Life
And breathe
And let go
Because you never know
When you will go
And pass
And crash
And fall
Like leaves leaving trees
Bleeding, screaming “Please
Help me find my way back home”
I don’t want to be all alone
I don’t want to die all alone
Watching dead flowers
Hovering
Covering the earth
Dying since birth
I’ve been dying birth
If fact, we’ve all been dying since birth
But I’m not the first
To analyze and rationalize
Every step
But I follow what’s in my chest
And live
life
And love
life
and breathe

Dandelion

It’s midnight and
I should be sleeping
but I’m not
Thoughts of you
Are all I do
And I can’t stop
I’m wondering when
We will
Look at each other again
And smile
And know what to do with our lips
Just talk or kiss
Actions speak louder than words
Especially when we don’t talk at all
My head and heart go
Back and forth in
slow dance motions
Debating
If waiting
For you
Is the right move..
All the time I’ve spent remembering
and forgetting your name
It’s all the same
So now I just
Wave goodbye
Til your ghost has left the room
And realizing that it’s over
Realizing that we’re getting older
And growing up and apart from each other
But still I’m trying to forget
And all I want is to remember
What your skin feels like in the summer
But if you love someone you set them free
And you were a dandelion
that told me
to breathe
And now we talk with distance
And I can sense some resistance
But I keep up with persistence
Because once upon a time
You were my sunshine
And you made me happy
When skies were grey
But the darkest clouds formed
When you walked away
Now I’m choking on words I shouldn’t even say
Like I love you and I miss you
And I just hope that you’re okay
But if you love someone you set them free
And you were a dandelion
That told me to breathe
