The Great Escape

Fear of Love (Chains I)

After all, the pain replayed in my heart seems pretty permanent 

Hard to let go of the past you live in, isn't it Malcolm?

You seem to favor being caught up in lies, 

In a webwork you allowed your shadows to spin

When she appears you freeze you froze you forget

Life is reaching out to you again, begging you

To remember, that you are loved

You always are loved, no matter what the circumstance

Love is not something you see, but feel

But why can't I...?

Why can't I feel anything anymore?

Hollow, like

An eggshell. Or... 

... an echochamber

When I see you, I feel invisible

Lost and found and lost again

I cast a spell on myself, I think

Damnit

Newfound powers backfiring

Be careful what you wish for

How do I open my heart again? 

I don't want this anymore

I don't care about power or the war or ...

The Great Escape

We, grab the keys and hop in the Jeep,

Pedal to the metal no stops in the streets,

You want to see the world? Take a walk with me.

You're the girl of my dreams, so you've got to be free.

Talk to me girl, you need the escape-

Tell me 'bout them trips you've been meaning to take.

Tell me all them rules you've been meaning to break-

I can feel it in your heart, so we're leaving the state.

We're on the first flight to the Florida Keys,

Don't you worry 'bout the price, you mean more to me.

Warm sun with your cool drink? Order three,

Then its time to board the cruise ship, more to see:

We're talking Isles of Peru? It's all for you.

We're talking plains of Japan? I'ma make the plans.

We're aiming to land on Arabian sands-

Come and lay with your man, with this ring on your hand.

A verse written during a...

A Love Letter to Christina

 Alarm clocks ringing as I wake up in the AM,

Morning birds are chirping so I yawn and get to praying,

Thank you to the Lord for lettin' me take in the day and,

Thank you to my mother for teaching me not to break when,

Haters train to bring you down or life gets harder, 

Shout out to my true pops- my nerdy stepfather.

Brothers and sisters too, cousins I miss the crew,

Now we playing catch up-for that trade I chose author. 

Writing down rhymes ev'ry time I get the chance-

I don't care about the game no, I care about romance.

So, anytime you're free girl you just give me a call,

And I'll take you to the movies, the park or the mall.

We could hit up Six Flags, maybe spend a couple pesos,

You're cuter than the rest, end of story, 'cause I say so.

I want to hold your hand, plus I'd like to get to know ya,

You're into how I tell it, but you'd rather see...

Distracting Women in a Coffee Shop

Distracted by the lovely women,
I remember her fingers soft,
Caressing nature,
I remember heart breaking,
Emptiness and this void vagueness,
A giving up, a giving in,
letting go of pain,
I have found few girls worth the risk,
In many years of rain.
Instead I relieve the past loves,
Hearts who've disappeared,
For most, they never loved me,
Only I, who did love them.
I never told them really,
But I wholly told my pen,
Who then whispered into paper,
All my secrets; all my dreams:
Entrusted through my confidence,
He'd betrayed me! Or so it seems.
 

Chapter One, Page Seven

And so for years he dreamed awake,

He walked the earth in search of place,

He talked with birds and trees and snake,

But found to no avail,

For the answers which the prince did seek,

Revealed themselves to not the weak,

But to the strong, the brave and kind,

To those of heart, and those of mind.

Free from the world of weary woes,

With sword in hand the hero chose,

To fight the world until he found,

The noise without a sound.

He'd heard it once, he'd heard it twice,

He learned of virtue, turned from vice

He swore the oath: protect the light!

And walk the path alone.

So they say, beneath the moon,

A warrior hero seeks her tune,

Her melody, sweeter...keeps him swoon,

He'll keep her through the gloom.
