Logical Love

Thinking of the good times hurts so much,

It was an amazing year we had,

They say all good things must end,

And they say we’re both rational people,

So now we’ve done the, logical thing,

But really, logic don’t come into love.

Tea

Enough of the fighting,

Enough of my fears,

The pain and the anger,

Enough of my tears,

After it all,

The thoughtless words,

The icy silence,

The things that hurt,

You are my darling,

The man for me,

And all we need is a hug,

And a nice cup of tea.

Dancing

How do you keep dancing,
When everything hurts,
I want to be in shining light,
But there's a shadow hanging over me.
How much strength does it take,
To stand straight and tall,
When you feel like crashing down,
Curling up so small.
Will you be my jazz,
My swing, my rock and roll?
Just please don't be,
My final curtain call.

Brave Face

Such a brave face,
Taking in the days,
Letting it all wash over,
Not letting anything bring her down.
But a face can reveal,
So much after time,
As the hurt breaks through,
She's thrown over the edge.
Suddenly that pretty face,
Was all streaked and stained,
as the tears crashed down,
Because she simply couldn't take it,
Anymore.

Watching

Watching the world go by,

Waiting for the world to change,

We see so much pain.

Horrific abuse,

Things so wrong,

How do we let this go on?

But here’s city life,

With the sun in the sky,

And I know we can make things right,

All these beautiful people,

We’re going to be the change.

Swing

Trapped by society's expectations, 

Let's not be.

Instead embrace life.

Wear whatever,

Do whatever,

Dance whenever,

Be, always,

Find liberation,

Swing,

It has a child-like freedom.

Exhaustion

Deep mind exhaustion,

The strain for thought,

Thoughts you could do without,

But this is reality and,

Ignorance is not bliss,

For starving children,

For abused animals,

The elderly, the poor,

Every day a struggle,

They're more exhausted than you,

Keep thinking.
