Be Amazing

The Moon shines not but shows all.
blackness of space brings separation to the stars.
The Sun warms and lights my world
blue sky offer a soft backdrop for the creeping clouds

The wind unseen blows across me
air i breathe comes and goes across all that I see.
The grass growing unnoticed softens my step
Ground is ever producing life and energy

All of this goes on without your notice
giving us unseen hope and signs of life
All of this gives us but one message to pass on.
simple and honest and true to the source.

Be amazing, that is all
Be amazing noticed or not just keep being amazing
Life comes and goes, it's seen and unseen
loved and unloved. but through it all you stand.
So if you stand just be amazing.

Waterfall (Meditation)

As I sit, breath in today
For tomorrow never comes.
I can't help but feel this way
Knowing I'll always be the the one.

As I sit, exhale the pain
Watch it all just fade away
All this chaos I'm to blame
Need to let go of the grey.

And as I sit here
I know the reason
I know the flow of life today.
And it consumes me
Taking me over
Taking my mind so far away.

Bring me back
Back to my center
Back to the basic of it all.
Back to a time when
I had control then,
Back before the water falls

Breaking me down,
pulling me down.
Washing away me self control
Taking my breath,
spin me around.
Do not know which way to go.

And as I sit here
I know the reason
I know just what I have to do.
Now I am focused
lost in the nothing
Lost in the breath that all consumes

Bring me back
Back to my center
Back to the basic of it all
Back to a time when
I had control then,
Back before the waterfalls.

Nothing

I want to be the nothing
That you don't see but know it's there.
The blank on the page or the hole in the wall
The useful part of a window

I want to be the nothing
Live and die unseen but forever in the heart
That warmth of the sun or the cool of the breeze.
The useful part of the burning wood

I want to be the nothing
In which you gaze in wonder for unknown reasons
The space between or the reflection of hope.
The breath you hold when love takes your heart.

I want to be.

That's the Way

I'll claw out my eyes today
 I want to see the world this way.
I'll tear out my heart today,
 everytime you walk away.
I can see the reason,
I can see the rhyme
 but I cannot understand just why this music can't be mine.

So I'll sing out the words today,
that's just what I need to say
I''ll dance with the earth today,
It taught me to move this way.
I don't know the meaning
 I don't have the time
I'll write my words across the sky
 hope that they will shine.

So I'll give out my love today
it was never mine to stay,
I'll let go of pain today ,
it was fiction anyway.
Dance across the moonlight
 singing to the wind.
The voices carry far and wide after life has spent.

So I'll live out my life today because that's the way
That's the way.

My Pen

My pen, and extension of me?
Does it simply transcribe the rattles of my mind?
Can it heal the sick or feed the hungry?
Can it find God or did it lose him altogether?
Will it raise me to be the a Buddha such as Jesus?
The ink simply flows from the pen to pad.
Just as the motion flows from brain to hand.
The cosmos is my playground such that I study the stars.
The light from so far away fires the cells in my brain.
So does my pen come from the flow in my brain
or is the starlight in the heavens that which ends up on my paper?

Kiss the Sky

I want to kiss the sky,dance with the stars
livin in the middle of just who we are.
See the sun for just what it is,
play with my shadow like I was a kid.

Feel the rain as it soaks me through,
run through the woods with no clue.
ly in the grass and just wait on time,
knowing down inside that it's all just mine.

Hear the birds sing, listen to the chirping,
wasting away no caring about working.
Summer days and the nights come round.
Get me on the beach far away from the crowd.

Sing, dance, cry and laugh,
birth to death these moments will pass.
I will stand here taking it in
when it's all over lets do it again.

So kiss the sky and dance with the stars
Live in the middle of who you are.
Life is short, least that's what they say
maybe you're living it in the wrong way.

Hold Me Tight

Holy Jesus
Did you see me sin?
Did you morn or cry when I did it again?
will tell your father it's not who I am?
Will you follow me down this path that I found.?

Oh sweet Jesus,
Why do I do what I do?
Follow the heart no matter how blue?
Am I scarred for life, beaten and through?
Will my wounds be forever a symbol like you?

Oh Mother Mary,
Your Son is with me,
Though I'm not really sure it's the best place to be.
My sins run deeper with each passing day.
For the lives that I save will never know pain.

Oh Dear God,
Could you take me from here?
I can't understand all the hate in the fear.
I try to stay holy but this can't be done.
for some of my sins just can't be out run.

Holy Jesus,
You held me tight.
Through all the hard morning and all the long nights.
When I cried in silence and screamed your name
You stood there silent and took all the blame.

Oh sweet Mother,
You son has come home
He stood the test of time and was never alone.
He faught with the demons and angels the same
But in the end he was cleaned in my name.

Shadow

Through the eternal I have traveled.
Past the fallen, past the the face of time
Standing on the edge of what you left me
Needing all the hope just to survive

Leading me away, Taking me away
I cannot pass the shadow on my own.

The image on the hill is crucified
blood runs constant, never ending
Bathing in the life you left behind
Needing all you promised just to hide

Leading me to astray, taking all away
I cannot pass the Shadow on my own.

Reading of the truth in which you promised
words of fallen mortals, falling shallow
Riddles, myths, and legends written down
Needing all I see just to follow.

Leading me again, taking me again
I cannot pass this shadow on my own

Now I put the pieces back together
Fallen bloody words fit perfectly
Revealing what was hidden in plain sight
Needing to understand where you are

Leading me to truth, taking doubt away
I cannot pass this shadow for it is me.
