52. Tidal Wave

Written for my dear friend who recently had his heart broken, and anyone else who is ready to give up on love... don't lose hope!! :)

Enjoy <3 br="" nbsp="">
Love floods into our lives like a tidal wave of hope
Only to crush our fragile bones to the ocean floor
Love is so promising at first, until not all goes well
And it gashes your back, flees, slams the door

Nothing puts a smile on your face more than the thought
That love is recycled and comes back around
It appears when it is least expected
One day, your soul mate will surely be found

Do not worry, do not curse yourself
Do not think of yourself as a foolish boy
The one and only cure to a broken heart
Is simply a glass full of anticipation and joy

Life is not over, the birds keep on chirping
They sing to the drum of your heart
Know that, you are still yourself, you are still here
Whether with someone, alone, or apart

This journey of love, it is never ending
Do not expect it to be pleasant all the way through
As with every aspect of life, it has its ups and its downs
Like a boomerang, love will always come back to you

At the very bottom of the dark ocean floor
You will realize how far you have come
You will laugh at yourself and be happy at last
As you notice how free you’ve become

Happiness is Pink Jellybeans

Happiness is jumping in a pool of pink jellybeans Feeling the cool candy on my skin Happiness is enjoying the pleasures of life Without worrying about confessing my sins Whoever said that we are gluttons For biting juicy pears on the beach Must never have felt the sand in their toes They must have placed their own soul out of reach And what about greed? It's not all that bad To bury a pile of chestnuts for the spring All animals do it, so why shouldn't we? If it's greedy to love yourself, let it be Lust is the one that makes pastors blush Yet it's one of the greatest joys in the body A kiss and a dance, laughter and romance Why did we ever label this happiness as naughty? Have you ever seen a cat sad when it naps? It is okay to sometimes be lazy The body needs rest as does the mind Or the world will set fire from the crazy If happiness is a sin, then let me smile in hell Looking up at the do-gooders above For to live is to err, to cry, and to sing Happiness is pink jell...

Humble

Remember the days we feared the gods? Neither do I, or maybe we just forgot I think we need a little superstition To quell our aching ambition We need to honour the moon and sun Just as the cavemen had done To find awe in the things all 'round Before we jumped in tech and drowned If we were to hunt our next meal We'd starve collectively, I feel Because we're even too cowardly to look In the beast's eyes whose lives we took It's simply sliced and put on display In a supermarket on the way Yes, we need to get back to our roots Take off our socks and high heel boots It's okay to feel a little scared It is how our ancestors fared Life shouldn't be riding on a cloud Idle hands make the devil proud So when you dwell into the woods Don't forget that the gods are not all good They teach us lessons as we preen Gluing our eyes to our phone screen If you're famous and if you're clever Doesn't mean you'll live forever We may be great, but there's...

I See the Fire

Every time I close my eyes, I see the fire That aches where you burned me last I am a woman of the earth and the cool soil Where life ferments and earthworms roam I can't survive the lava that pulses beneath The crust of this beautiful land Yellow dandelions piercing the grass Emerald pockmarked with gold I wish sometimes that I wasn't a woman of the earth I wish that I were stronger I wish that my bones were made of steel And my heart of flame So that I wouldn't fall apart at every Crude remark, every Light tug, every Covert attack That rolls off the back of a fire-woman Instead, my skin is transluscent  Like the morning dew  My muscles pieced together With tree sap and mushrooms What's an earth-woman to do In a world engulfed by fire? But root herself firmly to one place Grow a network of twisting underground limbs And create a stable home To escape the chaos of this world
