  "Hydration Potpourri" I love standing  on cold ceramic while the water is hot my condensation ecstasy I love standing on warm world while the rain is cold my precipitation serenity I love standing in mild mist while the vapor is thick my hydration potpourri  I love standing in medium mizzle while the air is thin my transpiration clarity I love standing in sultry shower while the drizzle is dreary because it cleanses me

  "Problem" Problem is, I'm easily  distractible. Constantly seeking the attention of people who shouldn't fucking matter. Problem is, You're painfully un-subtractable.

"This Fall" Leaves have changed And so have we Couldn't count the colors Beauty lost on me We've come so long Fought so hard I need to reconsider Clearing the yard This needs to work Because we're worth it Exactly the way we are We're perfect And if we shatter Both left scarred I won't give up, I promise To collect every shard Because I've chased you Through life's trees All our good times Can't be memories Winter's coming And summer has gone I've settled with the facts The conclusion I've drawn With the time that's passed Through life's seasons I'll always need you You're my reasons And after thinking Colors always fall in threes There's reds and yellows And there's you and me

"The Canary" The Canary Who built her own cage around her Built it so strong Propped and polished  Until it became her home The Canary Who built her own cage around her Sang in her cage Precise and proud Until it became her prison The Canary Who built her own cage around her Remembered beyond it Far and infeasible Until it became her escape The Canary Opened her sunshine wings and soared Until gone was the cage that confined her

"So, Here's to the New Year" When the restless will be put to bed When dead memories will stay dead When what's done is done and said is said. Here's to the New Year. When the messages stay read When last year's life has been lead When we stop looking back from here only ahead. Here's to the New Year. When the tears were shed When we felt misled When we accept what we can't change and move on instead. It's how we got here So, Here's to the New Year.

"Can you blame me?" Looking toward the future But you ask me to stay put Weighing the consequences You're talking inches I constantly need a foot So tired of the hot and frigid Ready to just move on  But something keeps me waiting We're beyond the introduction And the conclusion is foregone Sometimes, it feels like games You're so Guess Who? We've skipped my turn And I'm all out of guesses Not in the mood for Clue I told myself I love you But that means nothing You say you want to love me fully Are you able to commit? I bet you're bluffing And can you blame me? For being so over this You're so quick to quit Give my love away Cease and desist  Can't wait any longer This is my final plea I can't sit still anymore I'm back on my own feet Can you blame me?

"When it's time" Where do you want to go?      When it's time, of course Will you dance across the sparkling stars?      Or swim through the sweeping clouds? I know just where I      Want to be Not so far away      A whisper riding the summer breeze And when it's time      Won't you ride the gust behind me?

"Spiraling" Lost when you're home Where your mind ends and the clouds start Home when you're lost Rolling in and so dark Ready to go with nowhere to be Sit with your key in the ignition Nowhere to be but ready to go Idling while idle Turn on the radio Storm rages around you Is this what life has become The answer lies within the eye Spiraling towards the sky

"Fall From Grace" Have you ever experienced heartbreak? Of course you have We're all no strangers to hurt When love's at stake We wear our heartache on our face Smiles fade with time When we've loved and lost We've felt the fall from grace And hey, alone ain't so bad Because we know it won't last We'll just watch the hours pass us by And a few years of healing will jump up fast Though, our happiness won't wait We gotta' grab it when we have the chance Unless it isn't meant to be, for that pain we must brace Been there, done that We've felt the fall from grace And although this sounds like a country song So sad and slow I ain't much of a singer That much we both know I'm just tired of holding in Just need this pain gone They say the heart's the strongest muscle But mama always told me that it was brains over brawn And it won't be long now We kn...

"Should" I shouldn't want you I shouldn't have gave you my all I shouldn't have let my guard down I shouldn't have soaked you in It shouldn't have gotten here It shouldn't have clouded my judgement It shouldn't have progressed so quickly You shouldn't have entertained the idea You shouldn't have shown me attention You shouldn't have loved me back It should be broken off It should be at its end It should be easy But I do

"When Push Comes To Shove" How does one know? Really know for sure Is it measured in minutes? Or what it has managed to endure? How does one tell? the two similar burns apart Does your heart pick as a whole? Or are feelings a la carte?  Only time will reveal When push comes to shove Is it love Or is it lust?
