funny.

funny.
in life.
you eat.
your words.
choices.
funny.
in life.
there's no laughing.
at a funeral.

note: i know you read this. you're the only one that knows about this. i'm just writing down the thoughts in my head. sometimes this is how it comes out. in fragments. i'm not trying to make a point with this.

view.

in someone's eyes.
we are a saint.
in another's eyes.
we are the devil.

we are neither.
we are human.

nothing comes from nothing.
nothing ever will.
and so now i'll start by giving.
when you're ready.
i am willing.
if you want it.
i'll finally give you something.

i am.

If money and riches are what you desire... consider what money can give you. Take a moment to really think about it... when it comes down to it, it's not the money that you want - but the freedom that money can give you.  Think in terms of the freedom you want, not the money, and you might be pleasantly surprised. I am.

first time.

now the first time that i saw you
see i thought you were so pretty.
i smiled, i lit up inside - there you were:
divinity in reality.

response.

yes, i have cried.
yes, i've been consoled.
yes, i've been comforted.
yes, it's nice.
but i'm not worthy.

"he is good."
they say.
"she is not."
they exclaim.
"how dare!"

they are wrong.
and i.
rightfully so.
defend you.
i must.

"she is good."
i say.
"he is not."
i exclaim.
"how dare!"

they don't know.
i did this.
they don't understand.
i did this.
i silence them.

i will not let them.
bring you down.
with words.
i have done that.
to you, already.

and it's time.
for it to stop.
i will not let those words.
define who you are.
ever.

not asking.
to be forgiven.
or for mercy.
not asking.
for anything.

it's time
for me
to stop.
taking.
from you.

the northwest.

the northwest is kind.
it's beautiful.
it's more in tune with nature.
moreso than the east.

the northwest is more open.
it's clear.
it's honest.
open.

it believes in you.
it hears you.
it heals you.
it inspires you.

it can get cloudy,
i assume.
but .
it stays true.

it is devoted.
to the simplicity.
to the serenity.
of life.

that you can live it.
do it.
see it.
be it.

the northwest.
is yours.
'til the end.
through the end.

it loves you.
it will always.
love you.
and i love back.
