OVERSTAYED VISIT

You don't need me
So I thank you for the good you have done
I say it in silence
That way you will not sense the silent good bye
It hurts me that our business in your face is done
But I will remember we were brothers
I will pray for you
For my prayer is that you fly high and steady in the strong winds
I will not forget that you helped me
And the much I am or will be will acknowledge you
But tonight I will pack what I can
And leave your house brother
Not groaning
For all of us are guests in each others lives
In my case
I must have overstayed my visit
I hope love never grows old
I will find peace when it thrives again
But now
It is obviously used.

THE PARADOX

The fact that the reason to hold on is bigger than the reason to give up Does not trivialize your pain The fact that you neither shed a tear nor made a sound Does not mean you never cried The fact that you smiled all through the ceremony does not mean you were happy The fact that you are alive and happy Does not mean you aren't dead A strange ghost animating your body Not your dream self The fact you woke up with a plan Does not mean you aren't drifting through life The fact that you love a song Does not mean it makes you happy The fact that you woke when the alternative seemed lucrative Tells that you have outsmarted the paradox once more

KINDRED

I wish I had a friend Whose loyalty would never bend Walk with me miles on end Be plain and never pretend A cynic who would blend But to me be a kindred A spirit that knows me Keep me and my secrets just as I would  To the very end
