My Reality

sat in the bath and thought for a while
walked in a foreigner's shoes for a mile
worked it out in my head over time
finally my mind came up with this rhyme

talked and laughed and cried in my room
waiting for sunshine and flowers to bloom
tell you all that has happened to me soon
watching the stars and gazing at the moon

worked out the equation for time and space
wishing with deep heart to escape this place
while places I haven't been continue to entice
to go everywhere and still have a home would be nice

thinking of those who are gone and dead
trying to let nothing go to my head
by and by everything turns out okay
what will be will be, come what may

all these life choices for me to decide
part of living is learning not to hide
yearning to tell someone about my life
the bittersweet moments, the calming strife

ponder and wonder while listening to you
noticing how the world is so new
always been curious as to where we will go
yet it would spoil the fun if I were to know

speaking of my life, my love, and my laughter,
talking about the beginning, the middle, the after
writing down everything that I think and feel
to me this is what makes even fantasies real

The Pretty Girl's Man

I want you to feel
taste, smell, hear and see
A love that is real
a love that'll forever be

I want you to meet
a girl that won't break your heart
One that makes you complete
one that you'll love from the start

I want you to know
the mythical 'love at first sight'
and when you see her you'll go,
"I love her with all my might"

I want you to smile
when you see her each day
And be joyful all the while
with her, your skies never gray

I want you to make
this pretty girl into your wife
So that you'll get to take
the vows you'll live all your life

Although you might think me strange
in that I don't want to be her
Though I love you even in rage
I feel catastrophe would occur

I want you to have
a life absent of woes
and when I ever hear you laugh,
my sadness, it goes

I want her to treat you
with good care and good mind
And pretty girl when I meet you
I'll try to be kind

I want you to see
pretty girl, who you'll meet
It's quite man that he be
let him sweep you off your feet.
