This is an old poem I wrote & decided to share with you ENJOY!
With my mind body and soul I propose a toast to the spirit and the ghost.
One is uplifting and the other haunts my decisions.
Thats why I need to be free of paranormal reasonings.
I wish I could tackle this hassle but I'm no football player.
I'm a dreamer in a nightmare, I cant cheat death if I fight fair.
So when I awake I hope that my life's there.
To defend me, sending oxygen to my lungs and water to my kidneys.
Maybe I should freeze the clock on a hot day and take some time to cool off.
Some people say I need therapy, but sounds turn into images
And some things the ears can't bear to see.
I'm in a different light and they only know of the sun.
This light is internal not a super-nova, I shine from the inside out.
I also take light from the out side in like photosynthesis.
Im a man with a plant complex, but my leaves dont bend in the wind.
I swim like a salmon and don't walk around like a mindless drone.
Independence rules, my freedom needs to find its throne.
