Your Healing
Parts

I looked around and far away
I searched from hope to dismay
With realities I had been bound
Until the time they let me down.

The screams were loud and emotions high
Greed grew from ground while fear fell from the sky
Then it struck me that I had built an ark
Just like the one in Ararat.

It laid within me and kept me safe
When all of society went insane.

I didn’t want to tell black from white
As both are presents to our sight
I wanted no blame nor none would I give
But history never helped forgive

Each breath is precious and blink is real
Existence is life and it’s surreal.

The mountains weren’t always tall
And the desert won’t always be dry
Day and night are nature’s call
While tears give us wings to fly.

Who are you, time?

Did you catch that second
The one that went by
With your breath it beckoned
And vanished in the blink of an eye
It didn’t stop to get you started
Dragged you non stop to your end
Took you through those roads uncharted
Dropped you dead to let you blend.

Who are you time
What do you need
Tell us our crime
And the flaws of our creed.

We never know when you’ll come
Have no clue where you went
How fatal strings you strum
Each second you are spent.

Are you so afraid of ease
That you always run in vain
Wish you’d wait with us in peace
And fly us through this pain.

They all stood there and said it shines so bright
But all they saw was the darkness in the light
And I stood there and spoke not a word
No sounds could I hear but the silence i heard
It spoke to me without a sound
It showed me a light, one I could never have found.

It guided me through my darkest fear,
It knocked so hard on my feelings so dear
Iterated reality in front of my eyes
All through a lamp in the darkest night.

What we can’t see may exist
What we see and we can’t resist.
Temptation lures dissatisfaction high
After a while greed starts to pry.

The moment we see the coin’s flip side
It reveals its darkness under the light.
Let fear not drive the unseen roads
Let the sky not go out of sight

For if in darkness do not bear the loads
Invisible, feeding a miserable plight.
Walk through the streets inside your heart
With a lamp in your hand to see through the dark,

You may even ignore the light
But in its brilliance steer through the night.

It must be evening as they’re screaming when I wake up?
It’s getting darker, where’s my lighter let me bake some!
Get the paper, crush the leaf, roll the roach right
here’s your joint take a drag and you’ll be alright.

The days are short, the nights are long is it December?
I was supposed to be somewhere I can’t remember.
I’ve lost my keys and the phone isn’t ringing
I get the munchies feeling good I feel like singing

Rain ganja
Let it rain ganja
Feel the marijuana
Let it rain ganja

I’ve got no reason to worry about my woes
I’m always flying high and playing with my foes
They call me junkie when I start to get deeper
Wait a second let me pass y’all a reefer
My haters stepping up from creaking with the crows wow
The room is filling may be they just need a dose now

Rain ganja
Let it rain ganja
Through the green yonder
Let it rain ganja

The weather’s nice so I thought I’d write a song
To spread the love and keep the light going on
The days just started and the green isn’t raining
I’ll get my mom to smoke as she keeps complaining
She’ll get the munchies she’ll feel good and we’ll be singing

Rain ganja
Let it rain ganja
Let the mind wander
Let it rain ganja.

Do you love me
Or are you scared
Do you hear me
Do you even care?

What are all you people
Walking around me
Always in a hurry
avoiding my stare
Why’re you scared?
Are you trying to get somewhere
What are you trying to escape
Your fate?

Building prisons in paradise
And bringing rainbows to despair
How is this fair?
Come talk to me, would you dare?
Escape your shame just to fail
Cuz I’m deaf too
And I don’t care about you.

Mad at me Mary Jane?
I breathe you to my lungs as you fill up my veins
I try to blame my luck you wash away those stains
When times are bad I try to give you all my pain
But don’t be mad at me Mary Jane!

I know you trust my ways all through the night
Better know I’ll surely need your help to fight
We’ll see it through the winter and the rain
Just don’t be mad at me Mary Jane!

Yes there were days long ago when I didn’t know you
And when tomorrow comes we may not be true
The world too may look down on us in disdain
Yeah don’t be mad at me Mary Jane.

You know how I’ve dreamed of you all along
You’re a part of my name you’re the words of my song
I gave up on you once but I swear I’ll never do it again
Never be mad at me Mary Jane!

Storm

The Day is bright, no soul in sight
The shutters still down, the boards are brown
Miserable is the plight, yes it stormed last night.

The men just came, the god they blame
The boards they clean, inside they weep
They work in shame, as nature plays its game.

God got a word, from someone he heard
If he could manage the show, and once come down below
Not in the form of a bird, but a part of the herd.

The chairs were thrown, the posters torn
The breeze blew well, was it heaven or hell
The sun yet shone, but man did mourn.

Dark clothes they wore, stung by the roar
Their souls were stirred, no one said a word
Some old men with voices sore, told stories of the day before

When there was a crowd, the place was loud
A main leisure point, with wonderful eating joints
Man felt proud, Music added sound

Breathing was strain, the air had grains
The stink was bad, the lungs were sad
They smoked in vane, claimed to help the pain

Dirt filled the sky, man never felt shy
Diseases caught prey, the sky was grey
Litter on a high, ozone did dry

This god couldn’t see, the nature did weep
A storm was born, the dirt was blown
The sound was sneeze, man just couldn’t breathe

Temples rung bells, the tall scrapers fell
They just couldn’t see, their bodies did freeze
No man could help, just when nature dealt.

The ground is wide, Just few survived
The shutters are down, the boards are brown
Show miserable plight, yes it stormed last night.

She was never about poetry or rhyme
But a trail of thoughts gathered in time
She wasn’t true love or eternal devotion
Though she shared an affectionate emotion.

As those shadows fade they radiate
Fragile castles reverberate
But it’s all in the mind
The bad, the ugly and the kind

So was, such is and always will be
A tale of judgements on humanity
Philosophy was it named?
I question its theory
Assumption was its frame
Popularity its glory.

So was, such is and always will be
A lullaby of hope until eternity
Wasn’t faith the word
Meant to pave the way?
It was only heard
Or was it ever on display?

So was, such is and always will be
Life is this journey in a galaxy
Angels get to make the call
Spread love, desire and take the fall
From birth we fly and then we stall
To each his own is true for all.

She follows me these days
Walks softly in my shadow
Watches me as I make my way to her
Speaks not for she loves me silently
For she knows that I belong to her
If you asked, I couldn’t tell you what she looks like
Unaware of the length of my journey
Unknown to how near she really is
I cannot say that I love her now
I can claim that I wish for her sometimes
Peace she is too and that eternal one
She is the most attractive and precious she is too
Way past the dirt, religion and free of lies
Unbound in time, she is someone else’s now
But she is worth living for till the day she can be mine.

When the sun refused to set but stars were still shining
Civilisations were built on walls and sky lay blank like an empty canvas.
It’s just too bright to break down while someone out there lives better than us
Are we chasing dreams beyond our imagination while caved in our sanity?
Sun’s smoke is making a bonfire and water burns,
blood boils but in the end it’s all frozen
Break away in flakes the wax that melted its way through to our hearts
With us it drowns deep in the ocean that erupts like a volcano.
We live, we die to live again, run, we hide to run again
Our leaps make constellations and those falls leave trails of sparks
Seeking power in our limitations in the sky we wish to make a mark.

When the sun refused to set but those stars were still shining
Civilisations were built on walls
But sky lay blank like an empty canvas.
It’s just too bright to break down while
Someone out there lives better than us
Chasing dreams beyond our imagination.
Suns smoke away in galaxies making a bonfire
Water burns, blood boils but in the end it’s all frozen
Breaking away in flakes what melted its way through our hearts
With some it erupts like a volcano then drowns deep in the ocean.
We live, we die to live again
We run, we hide to run again
Our leaps make constellations
Those falls leave trails of spark
Seek power in your limitations
If in the sky you wish to make a mark.

When music is over
Yes you are the one I’m calling
Tell me since when have you been falling?
Letting yourself down a little at a time
Trashing your past with that forgotten crime
Look up, your sins have been appalling
You’ll find that you’re the one who’s crawling.

You look dirty from your body to your soul
Who are you chasing, is it death you’re looking for?
Your old lies are the truth you can’t change
Those guilty memories must now be very strange
For when in fear you were closing all your doors
Wild winds blew your dreams to open shores.

Cut your ropes break away from the hover
Until you fall you won’t learn to maneuver
Life has ways of hatching out of broken eggs
Walk your feet and power up your legs
When all is dead and you feel like a rover
Sing along even when music is over

A life of vivid enchantments
It’s fragile,
Burns and heals
With a tease it feeds
Her desires in spells
Of devotion to heart
That melts in her warmth
And rages the Sun
He hates his own power
Lets give him a shower
So he could think for a while
If he should take an exile
Let senses chill
Emotions freeze in dry eyes
Without light or fire
Any pain or desire…

Rise above it, or travel through
This life was only made for you
Grow your trees while its bright
When it rains they’ll bring delight
Strike two dead stones you’ll have a spark
We’ve got stars to fight the dark?
Illusions are real and eyes know magic
Be happy by choice or this life could be tragic.
He’d have all if would just let go his fire
But

Where is time?
Was he then when I wondered how we would be?
Or is he now and may never happen
Again
I lost my shoe and then I went looking for you
I wandered in snow
Feeding roads I’d seen before
All those people I saw
Were breaking the law
I hungered for her body while she fed on my mind
We went our separate ways as none of us could be kind

We live in a prison, each with our own sentence
for those inflicted crimes and that unholy penance.
No matter what length of punishment or its severity
Those trying to share the burden will only hurt till eternity
While a free fly phoenix will still call this paradise.

His sharpened wings and hardened skin will mesmerise
He’ll guide you to food and shelter from pain
And he doesn’t really care if his effort’s in vain
For he will burn while shining all around in his own glory
He’ll rise up from his ashes just to carve out a story.

He’ll find another cat in pain who’s feeding the mice
And wonder if she was just scared, hence tried to be nice
One sweep of wind will rock her faith and shatter fears in sight
May some day be she free to join the phoenix in flight.

May I tickle you a giggle
Please don’t be mad
Not much just a little
Whenever you’re sad.

It brightens your face
And brings out a smirk
Your eyes lend that gaze
Mesmerised, may I irk?

While sharing certain troubles
There were times you caught me laughing
We travel through those rubbles
Let’s have fun while we’re passing.

We knew this from the start
That we can’t kill pain
But give me grief from your heart
And trade that joy from my brain.

I won’t do this forever
I’ll find better ways
But when I can’t be clever
And in those rainy days
Would you let me in a little
If I tickled you a giggle?

As a young boy I once spoke to my dad
For he would write words of such joy and affection
I asked him why does love end up so bad
He told me it dies in the greed for possession.

In winter my mother told bits of sneaky love tales
She boasted belief that he would never leave her reeling
When wild sorrow struck he brought home best ales
His Julia she’d be and her wounds he’d be healing.

These stories of love sit stale, rotten as Rome
Those days of affection were lost in seasons they battled
For years it was not much a happy home
But long it lived and never was it rattled.

Till the day we grow cold we too can savour sunshine
Please let me see off your wounds and be your valentine.
