The Age Of Aquarius: Awakening My Emotions Through Poetry

Tinderbox Depression

Never will I wish you the ill will

I'll only ever wish you the will to move on and onward

You move everywhere but forward

And I'm sorry if I'm too forward

All I have to give is my words

I have to open up this can of worms

I can't stay sitting here in the dirt

We're supposed to get rain soon and dirt turns to mud

Everything at once I know it feels like a flood

Know that you're surrounded by love as pure as a dove

You're loved ones you don't always have to shove

Not everyone will die on you

And not everyone will lie to you

Or say bye to you

But if they say bye to you then there's nothing you can do but be grateful for the time that you had

Cus time is all we have

And money is all we grab

Ya that was a jab

I got you with that left, right, hook

They never expect it till they're left feeling shook

I'd grab you by the shoulders and shake you if you'd let me

But that'll never happen you haven't even met me

You can bet on me

I'm still going to leave

But aren't we all?

I promise it's ok to fall

But it's not ok to end it all

I swear it's like I'm talking to a wall

I let you in still my phone you never call

And I told you don't have to call

And that's still true

I really can't tell you what you can and can't do

Call or don't call it won't make me blue

Images of my life I drew for you

And for me

I stay growing like a weed

Strong and resilient I bounce back every time

For now I smoke weed just to pass the time

And I know that I can't rewind the hands of time

But I can hold onto the sweet moments in the present

You found a present in his presence

And in his presence you found a sense of yourself

In his presence I know you found wealth

Which makes you richer than most

No that ain't no joke

He left a lasting impression

Look at that as a lesson

He gave you hope

You are richer than most

Don't give up hope

He'd want you to keep yourself afloat

You don't have to just float

You can feel

You can deal

You can heal

Eat these words like a meal

Grab ahold of the wheel

And drive passed that parking lot

Even when it feels like a lot

Peep the view out here passed the air that's unclear and the sad music in your ear

There's more to life than just living in fear
