Actions speak louder than words

When you say you care and are there

But never bothered to show up

It’s like a fire that burns my skin

Killing me slowly while you still pretend

Wouldn’t it be better to give it up

To drop your act and finally leave

That way this fire can cool

And while the scars will remain

I can finally be at peace...

We’ll cross that bridge when it comes

And when it does, I take the river

Wet stones beneath my feet

I act suprised when I fall

It hurts to look back on what I have done

The mistakes made make me bitter

Instead of fighting I flee

I could have had it all

I want to forget my downfall

Because the parts that repeat

Force me to reconsider:

Have my efforts come undone?

If people never change, no one

...

Which way is the wind blowing

How is this wind showing

As it softly whispers in your ear

Talking about places far and near

Listen closely to the winds sweet song

Guiding your thoughts to where they belong

The wind changes its course

Shifting direction with such force

Natures ever changing ways

Seeing us through every day

Embrace the unpredictable flow

But beware of the gusts that blow

The win...

You’re barking up the wrong tree

When you tell me that I need you

Cause I can tell you for a fact

I don’t need anyone but me

Don’t take this the wrong way

But I don’t want you to be a need

If you are still a part of my life

It’s because I want you there

You’re not essential for my survival

Just an added bonus in my life

Try seeing from my perspective

Maybe you’ll understand my view

I’ve...

After killing two birds with one stone

A taste of you're own medicine all alone

Ive let the cat out of the bag

No pain no gain on this pricetag

I pulled out all the stops

Not a piece of cake or a lollipop

Its possible Ive added fuel to the fire

By barking up the wrong tree prior

But a picture is worth a thousand words

Its the old hit the nail on the head blurb

I have turned the tables somehow

Th...

The grass is greener on the other side,

I don’t know who said that shit, but they lied.

They must have been lost, just walking around ,

Daydreaming all day with their head in the clouds.

Curiosity really does kill the cat.

I know that, for an absolute fact.

I tipped my hat, to whoever said that,

But my heart goes out to that poor little cat.

Don’t let the small things get you pissed,

Don’...

Fortune favors the bold,

For I was told,

To chase after refractions of white.

The colored light that bends

When nature's tears fall,

For there is gold at rainbow's end.

Much time is spent

Chasing that last curve,

A place where color meets gold,

A place kept far from the reaches of men.

Many preach of what they've seen,

A chest of rubies, tourmaline, diamonds, and gold,

Protected by little men o...

A blessing in disguise

That’s what it was

I thought losing you

Would be as horrible as it comes

But I was wrong

And it actually set me free

For a blessing in disguise

Wasn’t you and me...

Kicking the bucket, love's bitter cost,

Unreturned affections, a love once lost.

In the silence of rejection, a soul in despair,

He sought an end, escaping love's snare....

Don’t forget the elephants in the room

They surely haven’t forgotten you.

One hundred of them die a day,

One in the past fifteen minutes.

Don’t forget the elephants,

Caught in human conflict

Or poached.

Numbers dropped sixty percent

In just a decade

And in just another

They will be gone.

Their numbers dwindle

And cries for ivory only climb

We kill for it

And they die for it

And one day

There wil...
