One Attention

Your ADD won't allow you to see the diversity language can be.

You like to rhyme you want it to flow, the skills you were given left a long way to go.

But if anyone can it's you. For behind your ADD brain is an NTP grind with worlds and ages and paradigms in your mind.

Writers Block

The words are jumbled, I can't get them out.
A raging mass of ideas and rhetoric in my head stomping around.
Cute jokes here, a spout of wisdom there, but never enough.
Words words words come to me please
Like a waterfall pounding in my head
Let the words pour out.
I release you, release you, you from this block.
This heavy burden of block BEGONE!
It's here...
It flows...
I feel it...
It's gone...
The words. Forever past the very tips of my fingers.
But one agonising word at a time they come. Eventually.
They Always come home...

Fire Fly

The fire flys light up like fire eyes against the fire sky making fire light on this dark night.
   
Thier frequent lights tell a secret life where there's no strife just pure delight.

I want to join thier silent throng to know thier long held secret song.

To surf like mist on waves of wind and find some hearts for us to mend.

Our constant light will never die, a beacon here for things awry. 


A gentle calm passed down thru time, a silent cry for simple lives.

Below the darting wings above, I took a breath, embraced the hush.

An ageless flight to thoughts unknown, an anthem here to time alone. 

A call for peace in every land, an earnest plea we take offhand.

A memory here our fathers shared, a priceless gift time can't impair.

Below the moonbeams watchful eye, I stand still and time flows by.

Four

I forget sometimes, you're only only four.
Behind your flashing eyes and devious grin,
I keep seeing something more.

I see you as a girl on your sweet 16
falling for the boy of your dreams.

I see you as a young football star
bringing your team in for the win.

I see you as the next big thing,
In Apple, in vogue, in the USA.

I pray what I do today will keep you off the streets.

But please remind me sometimes, for you see you're only four.
I see you hitting and biting, kicking and rolling on the floor.
I see you sharing and caring and letting others go first.
The future I see in your eyes is only my imagination.

Or is it?

Just Love

Love, the legends uphold a standard
No mortal can carry.

Love, a word so used its utterance
Uncaring.

Love, a feeling unfathomed, unknown
A mystery.

Love, will make a girl do 
Anything.

Love, something we all need but
Cant find in each other.

Love, it's so lost not even Sherlock will
Uncover.

Love, what God is made of.

Love, she hopes it's not made up.

Love, through my anger and my pain?

Love, even when he's screaming my name.

Love, keeps me here in the battle.

Love, a choice to submit and be shackled.

Love, is it worth it? Again and again?

Love, Yes. Let the games begin.

Goodnight

When you are sitting in the dark on your favorite swing
under your favorite tree
and you look around you
you can see the fireflies
flashing to you
a goodnight...

And you see the shadows within the shadows
lurking towards you
only to discover
your own dear kitty cat
coming to cuddle
their goodnight...

When you look up through the great leaves
and see the stars
twinkling
a goodnight...

To hear the sound of the crickets and frogs
chirping
a goodnight...

The boughs of your beloved tree
bending low
to embrace you
goodnight...

And the ghosts of your imagination
coming to kiss you
goodnight...

The wind
caressing
goodnight...

Two Into One

I am me and he is he,
Of that I do agree.

But who is he when he's with me
And who am I with him?

Is he me, with all my features tweaked
To be a more "him" me?

Am I him with all his angles dimmed
To be a more "me" him?

Are we two or are we one?
This question yet to answer.

Deceitless love will find its way
In dreams we have a harbor.

But who's to say our wicked world
Will let our hearts grow fonder?

It has a reputation, see,
To bend us 'til we break.

So let it be the queries three
This young girl has to offer

To this day no answer to be found
Nor solid proof displayed.

The answer it seems is out of reach,
Or is it just delayed?
