A Bird on A Breeze
I was ready for you.
I would have done anything you wanted me to.
I would have gone to the end of the earth with you.
Defender of hearts to sacrifice and to give,
it would have died fighting had it been allowed to live.
The sacred flower was more than you could adore.
You took the vessel and emptied it on the floor.
Should have saved my energy for greater things.
Now I'm just a bird on a breeze fluttering weakened wings,
spinning in a whirlwind in slow motion bound from ring to ding
as I fall prey to bigger winged things.

I was the dart to stay sharp who
never came home til I wanted to
learned to sing songs when I was blue
I hit the mark when I want to
I was the part who would start new and master the art of the loneliest heart too
I was so alone when you came through
I was rag and bone but you were too.
And you almost won the lottery .
Never stay alone for too long boo you might find yourself falling down for the wrong fool.
But I possess the heart that must stay true and not fall apart at the first tailored grey suit.
Though I confess its hard I still stay who
I am in spite of parts that still pray you whisper

Now I just start at the part when I break fool on marks acting dark like wild dogs at the playschool
And you can keep that shark-like attitude out of my site out of my mind
lest you forget that I've cut my teeth too they're sharp as a knife and they bite if they need to
Its easy to be nice so don't be rude .
Don't look into my eyes please just be cool.

Frostbite
Can you tell me about the pain?
Is it hot or is it cold?
Does it freeze you first then burn you after?
Is it the bad kind that doesn't ever go away?
Does it meet you in the back row of a movie in the middle of the day?
Does it grab you by the throat?
Does it ask you what you don't know?
Does it dig another grave in the ground?
Does it bring your spirits down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
Are you bored of all the snow?
Is it as cold as it'll go?
Is the frostbite reeling?
Or maybe I don't wanna know.
Maybe I can't even control my feelings.
Let's go home.
I got a little light and it'll grow.
Then it'll be just right.
First flames then divine surprises.
A Phoenix always rises.
I know you really don't wanna fight.
These glittery winter nights
starlight and dark blue sky
keep taking you back in time
to some shimmery distant life
that was pure and true.
And let this wicked truth be told
I'm as broken and empty and nothing suffices.
The pain of breaking broke my soul.
But in due time the flames will rise and our true lights will show.
Are you bored of all the snow?
Is it as cold as it'll go?
Is the frostbite reeling?
Or maybe I don't wanna know.
Maybe I can't even control my feelings.
Let's go home.
I got a little light and it'll grow
then it'll be just right.
First flames then divine surprises.
A Phoenix always rises.
Rainbow
I’ve been flying over this rainbow
so long I don’t even remember why.
So many hopes and dreams in this air
I am altered by the wild stream of prayers
to the blue sky
And I want at least some to come true
I am rooting for you babe
I am rooting for me too
Looking for a place to land in the zoo
in the city of my birth
where the angels singing truth say
“Look alive, be present, don’t lose your way
the distractions are masterfully placed.
They’ll offer many sweet warm things for your plate.
If you don’t choose right
you’ll burn out like a false light.
And darling if you do
the only one to blame out here will be you
Be it a feather or a brick
when you take what you take then you get what you get”
And I wanna get what I want for once
I never wanted more than what one should want
I took a long time took a long climb
to the long line where the stars shine
and said, “I wanna get I want for once
I never wanted more.
I took a loss when others took what they want
I took flight when others took more than once
And I've been flying over this rainbow
So long I don’t even remember why
So many hopes and dreams in this air
I am altered by the wild stream of prayers to the blue sky”
