Another flower
natually high as a kite
hanging with friends and fam
and I don't give a damn
from one party to the next
after nagle bagle's text
I started playin pong
listen to a vibing song
when I saw you standing there
and I had to stare
into your eyes
that liquified like candy
made me feel dandy
so I started my sweet talking
shoulda played but I kept walking
to be near you and your beauty
as if it was my duty
that one kiss was like magic
if i didnt see you again it would be tragic

All is One
Underneath all is one
From tree to branch
The water you can't stanch
Slips to the ground
With the faintest sound
To replenish the earth
And give new birth
An endless cycle
The goal to recycle
From old to new
Floating on as two

All Apologies
I was having too much fun
Caught up with making money
Busy bee collecting honey
Drowning my morals without regret
The lives I hurt, I did forget
Sometimes I get in too deep
Don’t watch when I begin to seep
In the end a tear was shed
There are still things I need said
All apologies come from my heart
I hope you accept my new start
Because I’ve always known the right path
Believe me, I’ve done the math
One day you’ll see I’m in the light
I’ll always be in it for the fight

I Wish He Had Wings
Hello, Mr. Demon of mine
I knew I couldn't leave you behind
Yes, I strangled you like you held my breath
And buried you in the depths of my head
But it seems like we're just meant to be
Every time I kill you, you try to kill me
I even covered you in the Earth
The kind I knew was fresh from the worms
Nothing akin to the dust and the cracks
I made sure that your grave erased all the tracks
But novelty to me is just your invitation
To grow snakes on my head
And comb fear in conversation
To leave the rivulets brined
And restrain trusting sensation
I thought we would have finished this time
Left the battles in my backburning mind
Allowing me to finally paint on those scenes
Of everything you have been denying to me
Mr. Demon of mine
Would it be too much to inquire?
Why you creep back when it's late
And I'm vulnerable outside
In the arms of this game
Can't you free me from desire?
You're driving me to run away
I just want to be able to stay
Mr. Demon please allow me to go
It's YOUR rules I don't want to follow
Not my fabricated dictations
Excuses and observations
I'm faking it only as much as it takes
Give up and let me fool you back to your gates
Locked up where you sorely belong
Buried deep under hydrating grounds
I'm so sick of this illness
I just want to feel genuine
Believe your screens were anomalies
And stop fearing your disease
Mr. Demon, won't you please set me free?
Haven't you had enough of hindering me?

A Challenge
Could you be
A self-fulfulling dichotomy
Like me?
A wandering sense of vividry
In scenes
Colored with opposing needs.
Yes, my giving tree
Roots in sand I can never see
Smallest on that quartz-driven scale
Nostalgic grains beneath my feet
Could you be?
Every part as red as green
Every sense of dread and jealousy
Or a calming shrine of divinity
Pinned to skins that flex can reach
Yet opposing in all it's risability
And topped with easy-going seas
No trough apart from crest or peak
I know I am me
But could you be?
That light of mind
Every bit of numb as art
Every choking hole as freedom
Yearning in sleep but set apart
That crowd we all took comfort from
Or so we thought
Every smile as was a pout
Every love had as was lost
Self-conscious loathes but confident
Energetic hopes but wearing down
Could you be?
What you said and what you think?
Or is it really so hard to believe
To define in terms of identity
All the parts that make us seem
As if we belonged to no scene
No park nor place nor street
Just optimistic negativity
Laid-in-the-ground uncertainty
Deaf and blind but sounds to see
Could you convince the world that's how we're meant to be?
