The words
Fall out of the phrases
As the sun
Sets in the shade
Of a smoky night
In the place
Of water and land
The words
Fall out of the phrases
As the sun
Sets in the shade
Of a smoky night
In the place
Of water and land
It was all a part
Of a play
The moments passed
As the wind blew
Through the day
The memories we make
Are not to keep
But rather to hold
Close to our hearts
Throughout this crazy
Life
That we live
The hope
Of repetition
Is growth
Slow and steady
But hopeful
As it goes
So again and again
I hope
To grow
One small
Amount each
Day
It was never
Right
From the onset
Of the deal
A diddle
Little thing
When the eyes are wandering
The swindlers
Are at play
Focused on the goals
Of the day
What are my hopes
One dream
Comes and goes
Along the same
Shores
Who knows
So the hope rises
And fall
All along
The life
Long
A wild wind
Blows
On the eastern
Shores
Of Chicago
Down the lakeshore
And through the streets
Of a city
In a constant state
Of repeat
And repeat
So the sun lights
A small grain of sand
One by one
All again
Nothing is required
In a life
Fully lived
No education demanded
More depends on
What you give
Rather than take
So remember
That none is required
To live
A good life
Comfort
Comes
In time
With every hour
That passes
Through the lens
Of my eyes
The night
Falls
And the day
Rises again
In time the comfort
Will set in
Words that lie
Unpublished
On the bylines
Of the internet
Of the website
Intent
Rather off
Pace
With the unpublished
Works
Of what it
Can take
For the sake of harmony
What is at stake
To be given freely
For the greatest
Take
Of happiness
For the collective
I would forsake
Opinions
Fake and foiled
To listen instead
To be patient
Rather than turning red
In the face
So for the sake of harmony
What will give
And what can we take
