PRETTY BLUE

Think that I might have forgotten you

It might be true never but I never asked anything of you

My dreams don't match the reality of you

Pretty blue where did you go too

No one like you in my mind

Was our friendship just an elegant lie

These feeling never change the many times the heart brakes

But I am the only one to blame when you walk away

What do you say when you think of me today

Pretty blue where did you go too

When you where the passenger of my mind

Never to experience these unconditional feelings

When you were alone I was only in your mind

I would call you every time just to make it alright

Now I have mastered the feelings I have of you

Pretty blue where did you go too

To hold you would be an intimate lie

When you smiled it would happen every time

Reality lies when I am next to you who is always a fool

Going out of my way for heartbreak and pain

POETIC

Random thoughts from the heart

So much more than inspirational

Creative lines of words are where it starts

Poetic thoughts profound in rhythm and rhyme

Fractured word caught between inspiration and validation

Haiku is the poetic phlegm I spit at you

Wet and dry all at the same time 

No reasoning to the word that you choose

Poetic words with feeling and deep meaning

Incoherent babble just to make words rhyme to save time

Picturesque musings through the rainbow haze

Hear the songs of the early morning

Put the past behind you look to the sun of a new day

Poetic movement with intent and purpose

Hear the purple omens as Misty Copeland floats by

No one can write the same as the crow flys

On a pilgrimage to the destination, there are twist and turns

You have learned more than what anyone has heard in these words
