Forgotten Me
I don’t know where to begin
My life’s been all over the map
But Arizona is still on my mind
Her infectious smile
And sparkling eyes
I will always remember Arizona
Even if Arizona has
Forgotten me
Love does that for you
Love is not something you can choose to give
You can’t choose who you give love to
Love does that for you
Just Breathe
There’s a beauty in solitude
Sitting quietly
Letting the world pass by
No controlling
No judgment
Just being
Sitting by myself
But not alone
The world is happening all around
Going on as if I’m not here at all
Trying to find peace within myself
So I can find peace in the world
Just sit
Just breathe
What defines you
We seem to be defined by what we possess
Not by who we are
But if you lost it all today
Would you still be you
If your possessions were all lost
Would you be lost with them
Are you what you possess
Or are you more then your possessions
What defines you
You Bitch
Lost as I was
Looking for a life line
Trying to stay afloat
Just treading water
You were there
Anchored in your boat
I’m waiting for you
To throw me a line
A line that will never come
You smile so coyly- - -
Just like you always do
I’m drowning here
Your smiling
You bitch
Destroying other lives
Somewhere I lost my way
When exactly it was I can’t recall
When I needed direction
You were not there
When I needed a hand up
You were not there
Somewhere I lost my way
You let me wander aimlessly
Lost, alone and frightened
Screaming out in pain
Screaming for you to see me
Screaming for you to help me
You turned a deaf ear
I was my own problem
Not yours
You never had the time
You were too busy
Destroying other lives
As long as you can
Sitting and looking for creativity
But creativity is not something you can sit and wait for
It won’t come looking for you
You must get up and get outside yourself to find it
You must pursue it
Hunt it down and grab hold of it
Ride it for all you can
Because there are days
You just can’t find it
But on the days that you do
Hold on
As long as you can
Love is you
Like an angel
You came into my life
You were there when I needed you most
You guided me through the darkest hours of my life
Like a lighthouse shining
You kept me from the rocky shores of destruction
Through all those long stormy nights
You showed me a better path
A path filled with love and happiness
You were the angel I needed then
You are the angel I still need today
You showed me what love is
Love is you
Still lives with me today
The night spent with you
The heat of late summer in the air
Our bodies entwined as one
The smell of whiskey, sweat and sex
That night with you
Still lives with me today
