Creek

The sun glints in the ripples of the water
I let my feet hang in and the fish nibble on my toes
The breeze weaves itself into my hair
The sunlight seeps into my skin like a solar ointment
I stare into the depths of the river
Seeing the tendrils of flora wave against mossy boulders
The verdant frogs stroking through their mighty waves
Two fish circling each other in a loving fashion
This is my home, my sanctuary
Where the sun caresses me awake every morning
and the stars tuck me into dark skies every night

A Lost World

A vast land with endless possibilities surrounded by evil tyrants
We had a love that could never be severed
But the tyrants decided to prove us wrong
True, you were never perfect, you had your problems
But you were mine, your imperfection and problems were my relish
I could spend endless days with nothing but you and our tribes
Battling against outside invaders
The tyrants were simply too much, threatening my food and water
Our bond was one that could be severed by none but death
Grievously, the tyrants had my life in their grasp
Based solely on your tumultuous history, condemning you
I never wanted another but had no choice when you were banished
When you came around I got such a high
I had no choice but to go into withdrawal from your essence
You hated the pills you had to take but you were my pill
I loved every minute of treatment
With one simple leap I was at your fort
I had arrived at the place you existed
The place that I could never be
Where the tyrants deemed beneath
Years after you were banished I still think of you
You and your spirit and your needs
If only we were older, if only it were a different time and place
If only I could find and shoot that damn woodpecker to make this reality
Then we could rule our forgotten kingdom
Together, as one, never apart
But the woodpecker is fictitious
Our reunion is impossible
Together, forever, is quixotic
Even if we were to see each other
You would never remember our ideals
You wouldn't care of the battles we fought
The dangers we survived
The difficulties we surmounted
You have probably gone and found another
I will never be able to fully find replacement
You may not continue in the forefront of my conscious
But you will never leave my entity
In my mind we will still always love each other
If I ever saw you again I may not say anything
I could not go acknowledge your presence
But if you ever came to me again
I would take you in my arms
We would again go to our castle
We could rule and love
But that flash we end as soon as the second did
Because you never would see me
But I will still escape to our land every now and then
And I will lie next to you and hold you under the stars

I know that we could be so amazing

Do you realize I was born to make you happy?
Ignoring hand-me-down cliches, I should belong to you
I know your soul and have felt it against my own
I am simply too close for you to notice me
Our banter is not argumentation, it is chemistry
My feelings would take you to the edge of belief
Anytime I try to be cute I feel you see immaturity
Anytime I try to be desirable, you see douchebaggery
Will it ever happen or should I give up?
Everything would just be simpler if you initiated the reaction
Have I already missed the train or should I plunge?

Just please don't call me Brett Favre

I had given up completely
Love was not something I would ever be able to attain
One night stands with introductions pushes the envelope
Call me jaded, call me faithless, my heart just wasn't made for trauma
Now after just one braze from your glance has me gasping
It is all I can do not to grab a fistful of your hair and inhale it
Are you just hurting to be thrown against the wall in fervor?
Now I am begging just to be brushed by your shoulder
All I ask it that it not be your turn to not know my name

Another word and I'm gone

I'm just so sick of your bullshit
The gaping hole in my back simply will not do
The only reason I am even here is to update you
Just sit down in that grave you dug
All those days I thought I couldn't live without you
I now realize that you were just using me as leverage
You wanted to cookie jar and I sure am tall
Don't think you got to me, I was fully aware
You could have had it all
Now if you would just leave me alone

Since you dared

You really should not have done that
Now I have no other choice
I am going to rain on your parade
I'm not talking about drops
Get ready for the deluge
And I will keep the revenge precipitating
Run as you might
My cloud will find you
You really should not have done that

Hungover

I feel like not moving every again. Just keep this shuffling soundtrack and dark surroundings for a long while. Sometimes Im convinced the tentacles come out of the ground and mentally keep me from doing things. What the hell is wrong with me. Normal people arent so easily led astray into nothingness. I need someone to follow behind me and slap me awake sometimes. All times really. I hope I am able to escape from life tonight. Just for the evening. Maybe not even remember what happens. Just let the night slip away and go straight from dinner to the next morning. I am so glad I don't get hangovers. Or at least not from the alcohol.
