caged in chilling tears
envied to be yourself
lost on the back of hope
found on the ass of despair
i'm not you,
no i don't care.


sun caressing nite sky
moon dancing in daylight
my thumb's numb again
too blunt is far too subtle
drank too,
not pissed to my buckle.


walking through the square
getting preached to
"you will be saved"
can he smell impending doom?
i am me,
no i'm not like you.


naked bodies sliding on cue
music pumping on a drone
haggered old eyes watching
shattered dreams follow
what a waste,
why do they pick here to wallow?


staring at the flame
i get lost in my palm
my attention swivles around
looks "working girls" bodies up and down
why this way,
can they feel the heroine drown?


wounded is the seventh
drifting by the storm
bloodied by the thorn
standing on a shore
my memory,
no it shouldn't stall.
but it does, as it always will

I hope your heart and life don't always stall in the future.  Hope is the foundation of your life, you lose it you lose everything.
Great work and chin up!!  

 At last I have heard the song of enlightenment.... In your heart you can hear it now, if you listen....
It is the song your spirit has been singing since the moment of your birth. All lasting victories are won in the heart....
