Silence

I live in a world of silence
with heavy traffic
solid rain
and splashing footsteps

I am awakened 
by the starting of a car engine
the homeless rummaging through the trash
or the screaming of the intoxicated

I live in a world of silence
with peace
zen
and harmony

Inside I like silence
I close my eyes
breath in deep
hold your breathe
exhale

In relaxation the world will glow
and your mind will grow
Silence is your peace of mind
it is not your surroundings

 

Anger

I don't know why,
but you make me boil
I cannot stand your presence,
when everything has a pretence


I wish you well,
when you wish me harm
I cannot stand your idiocy
but I guess that's your charm


What is one to love,
is it the vague personality
is it the image one sees
or is it timidity

You speak in vain,
I choose to ignore


Your actions of kindness,
mask your intentions


Under that mask of yours,
I'm sure you're keeping scores

Friendship

To love and to know
You may speak without despair
To hold and to weep upon
You are my rock

You may be blunt
And I shall forgive
For a lifetime of love
We give each other comfort

We may not speak
We may not meet
For a while
Sometimes longer

But we still remember
You're always on my mind
From time to time
We speak a life's worth of dialogue

We finish one another's sentences
Love can bring happiness
Friendship can create companionship
Sharing is caring

Never to part ways
When you seen me in a daze
You guide me through a path
I trust you
Without questioning your judgment

You make me smile
laugh
smile
cry
and mad
But in the end
I love you my dear friend

Betrayal

Wonderful at first
Best friends at last
Win me over
Throw me over the rail

Seek approval
Playing your tricks
Everything is a game
That is your fame

So vulnerable as you may seem
You don't realize you're mean
Like an evil queen staring into her mirror
Watching you deteriorate

Bit by bit
Glimpse by glimpse
Disappear into the mist
