Yours
Solitude is beautiful
You are your own joy
No one can take it from you
Tell me
Why must we compare
When we could listen and learn
From what isn’t ours
A little less conversation
Elvis had a point
You can press pause on the words
And see what happens
Common denominator
Just figured it out
How they look looking at me
that is what it is
How i got here
Steady as can be
Extreme in fighting extremes
to stay calm and well
Pain Meds
It feels like i am better
But then like clockwork
It begins to hurt again
Fire
Don’t get too close to the flame
If you aren’t careful
You might learn to love the light
Change
You weren’t paying attention
Until you got scared
That you had actually changed
Shifted Focus
I tried to watch a movie
But got distracted
By my soft pajama pants
Go ask Alice
Not a bad place to visit
Just confirmation
I wouldn’t want to live here
I was thinking of you
When you think about someone
You write a story
That they know nothing about
Dream Haiku
Dream notes don’t make sense
But they are still fun to share
Kind of like a life
Haiku – Thought
Psychedelic brains
Are often misunderstood
But those minds don’t mind
