FACADE

Fickle desire to be better than me never leaves
A strong feeling that I could be better than me never fades
A longing for the unreachable
But I never stopped living some else's dream
Sometimes, my own nightmare of stagnation

Dressed for the play of success
Plain act of success
Yet far from it
I feel perfect in these costumes
I don't intend to get rid of them
The splendid illusory backdrop of grandeur  
Hiding and covering the fear of being an imposter
Yeah!
A lie

I will not get rid of this act
I want to ochestrate an eulogy 
A fiction of sorts
Maybe an allegory of my life

Yes
It is another moment
Face painted glee
The clawn is dressed for another day
Another show
Amusing! Isn't it?

How beutiful a smile of despondency can look

HEART OUT

You are the one I think of when I am blank When I am happy you are the one I call I think of you when I am sad I pour it all on you And I feel it is all right I call you when I reach a problem's dead end Together we find a way to move to the other side of the wall With you I feel like the lake Galilee When Jesus was calming the storm You are my rain maker You make me feel hope You are the cloud that causes my worst storms When I know that I am the reason you are shedding tears I feel so comfortable beside you I can sing off key But it is all right because I wont be judged I can talk and talk Be sure that I will be heard I can keep the quiet of a grave And not be scared that it will be heard wrong Yes I can be headstrong Then we will fight and make peace I can be fearful when you are scared And we will curdle together I can hope when you have lost hope And you can hope when I have lost mine For that is how we become better You are beautiful to my eyes and ...
