The Power And The Fault

.Reading time 1 minute.
The power surges through the line
And the fuse blows
It's my circuitry 
And God knows
I've done all I can 
To keep the ship steady
Wait for the moment 
When I am ready
But I am pushed out, out
Beyond my cave of fear
And my web of doubt
Be Present, shine
And when you do, reflect some of mine
I searched tomes
And stayed home
For fear of my awesome strength
Then wonder at weakness and where it all went
When the wind blew in a storm
And I wondered why it wasn't warm 
As the lightning cracked
And the thunder wondered why you can't take it back
Once the lesson is learned 
And the bridge has been burned
And cured of all its rope
When do you begin to hope
When the crush is all that you know
And people you love won't let you go
To lead your own life
Only visions of derision and being a wife
To some also ran 
Because I can
Can simply not
See the weather that time forgot
In it's oceanic hue 
It wasn't right but I still choose you

Something Clear

.Reading time 1 minute.
Among the flying knives that shatter the glass
I’ve found something that could last
And everywhere I look’s the same
I’m seventeen in everything but name
And she’s as awesome as she always was
And I love him just because
He’s different and nice
And didn’t expect me to look twice
But I’ve been looking in the mirror
For as many years as I fear
To add to in the relentless pursuit
Of time that is consuming our youth
And I noticed my skin looks dragged
Did I ever appreciate what I had
When it was there for real
Does he care what I feel
And would he care to know
The places that my daydreams go
When they are resting on solid ground
Does he know I love the sound
Of forever in his intonation
I fuck it up then I go on vacation
For a decade or so
But I love how we take it slow
