hey my friend
Hey my friend, beware false words
words meant to lead, to persuade
I can not say why
my speech is left dry
I want to tell you
I meant to tell you
this time is so short
I have to tell you
We part so empty
If only i had the words
If only i had the time
gone - we fail
tomorrow i hope, i pray
I beg a chance
please the words
we yearn to hear, to say
a last poem
if i fell now,
a ghost forever
a moment to feel
just a notion for you
what isn't, what is
faint light recesses
stand toward the cold,
bitter breeze in dark
rejected by knowing
soothed in this last moment
America I see beauty dive to her left
untitled
Agencies come and go
I like to remember the people the real things in life Failed campaigns, trivial ideas a life of memories I like to remember the people The detail will fade God accepts the soul we should look for the soul I like to remember the people
Vehicle
our vessel wall keeps us apart
ticking to the next task
clear vision but no contact
always apart, distant
we came close once
so we thought, felt
no, always apart, distant
remember the feeling close?
is there a moment together?
a gathering of souls,a touching
maybe a fleeting affection
we search, we hope
