Life is a mess

Im a desperate soul

Run run run!

I need help

I need some aid

I need hope

To keep up my journey

But all I really am is

Desperate...

Aid me with your smiles,

Your sunshine, your rain,

Stay here for a while,

Happy I’ll remain.

Aid me with your tender, warm hands,

That shades away the wrath of dark,

Silky like your elegant strands,

Your touch is like spring in a park.

Aid me with your soothing voice,

It’s like the strongest magic,

Under your spell with no choice,

Not once was the world tragic.

Aid me with your sweet lips,

...

In my lifetime, I’ve discovered,

We all have shades to be uncovered.

Shades of beauty, shades of pain,

Shades of joy and shades of rain.

Some bring happiness, set us free,

Moments filled with purest glee.

Some bring teardrops to the eye,

Moments when we question why.

Desperate for a love that's true,

For someone who can see us through.

To hold our shades within their hands,

To understand what e...

Aid me in my thievery

Will you?

Desperate

We stalk the night

Looking for a sign of life

Closer to the car they lurk

Shifting in their seats

We smirk

Shades, the neighborhood cat

comes out to play

“Shoo!” we say

“Go away!”

Not tonight,

Another day

Humming,

Hoping we go away

“Give us your car or you’ll get hurt!”

They lay face down in the dirt

We take the cat

and steal their keys

We s...

Desperate for a breakthrough

A reason to breath easy again

At peace only for a minute or two

The facade is hell to maintain

Who knew life could come

In so many shades of hurt

It would be grace to feel numb

To be able to channel it into my art

Allow myself the aid I crave

Make the healing permanent

Handover the driving seat to faith

Let my hope be forever prominent...

What once was broken,

You’ve mended, awoken.

What once was shattered,

You pieced back the tattered.

What use to be dark and dreary-

Now bright, but no longer cheery.

You’ve been there-

No, it’s not fair.

I don’t deserve you.

But together we grew…

- Thank you, my love.

Truly an angel from above.

I rest my head upon a rock

This is where my weary bones shall lay

My thoughts and trepidations blocked

Till I inevitably wither away.

A distant echo in the woods

Makes me ache me like a clarion call

Pain, desperation and all the goods

Take over as I wait to fall

I rise and stand, broken yet whole

As I prepare to take my last steps

Tears down my cheek, I bare my souls

Hesitation never really hel...

I’m still a kid....

Desperate to leech,

Make this your life.

Practice what you preach,

Just to live in strife.

Shades of pain,

It’s a matter of degrees.

Claw my skin again,

Just to make you agree.

Aid came in the pit,

Held my own ribs at sunrise.

Saw myself as the culprit,

Of all I despise

Out of the shade,

I rise from this Styx.

Seeing of what I was made,

Love and empathy was the mix....
