When The World Goes Mad

When The World Goes Mad

We’ll Still Be Sane

And Still Be The Same

Holding Onto What We Knew

In The Old Days

When Life Was Simple

And Plans Were Few

And Pleasures…Were You.

When The World Goes Mad

It’ll Just Be Me And You

Friend

Lover

Other

Husband

Wife

Pet

It’ll Just Be Me And You

Against The World

We’ll See It Through

When The World Goes Mad

We’ll See It Through

In the Armegeddon

Of Our Emotions

And In The Wilderness

Of Our Wildest Dreams

There Is An Oasis

We Open Our Eyes

And Think…

Oh No, Not Another Dawn!

When We Awake

We Get

The Shock Of Our Life

There’s More To This

There Always Is

It’s About Motivation

And Drive

And Love

Always

Always About Love

That Elusive

And Powerful Force.

We’ll See It Through

Aim to Forgive

(Very Difficult, but worth it)

Hate Less

(Difficult)

Love More

(Hard Work, it has to be said)

But nothing worth having comes easy.

Innocence

Innocence

That precious commodity

Is coveted

Makes people

Spit

With Envy

Makes them

Rage

With Jealousy

Cry

With Frustration

They want

Your downfall

Your suffering

But they don’t have innocence

Will never have it

Have never had it

Can never have it

Innocence is the most coveted

Of all things

If you have it

They will try to take it from you

By force

If necessary

They may succeed

To a point

But only to a point

You will take it back

Get money on the empties

They owe you

Always be owing you

And will pay in full

In the end.

But in the meantime,

Their ‘I OWE YOU’

Is imprinted in their souls.

And they have to pay it back

Sometime

Soon

A Hundred Fold

Can’t forget them

Well then,

Just forgive them

For they know not what they do

Sincerely

Truly

Forgive

Just do it

To free yourself

And you will free everything else up

In your life

And be astounded

By your progress

God will do the rest.

Bad Boy

He wants a front row ticket

To my destruction

He’s a broken mirror

Seven years bad luck

But I murdered the feelings inside

Chopped off their heads

They ran around

Like headless chickens for a while

Then dropped down dead.

Mustard Seed Steps

I’m taking mustard seed steps

To get where I ought

These steps are going to take

Much longer than I thought

But, you know baby steps

Always lead to motion

That move mountains

And are cast into ocean

Move that mountain

With just the faith of a seed

A small amount

That you couldn’t even see!

This insignificant little seed

Grows into a mighty tree

‘And birds of the air,

Will come and lodge in its branches’

And just like that tiny seed

That appears to have no power

You think you have no power

Over a mountain

But you can say to this mountain, move.

Yes, mountain, I’m talking to you!

And it will move

And nothing

Absolutely nothing

Will be impossible for you.

My Cup Overfloweth

I have everything I need

God has given it to me

In abundance.

I want for nothing.

Yet, I have still been unhappy

Plagued by petty worries

And by what I deem to be important

But none of it isn’t, really

Not in the big scheme of things

What we cannot change

Situations

Circumstances

Current concerns

Nightmares

Sleepless Nights

Fears and insecurities

Trappings

We should accept them all

And not fight them, at all

Because everything changes

It’s the nature of the world

I have felt trapped in the past

But realised

Those times were actually the happiest in my life

But I didn’t see it.

Couldn’t

Wouldn’t

Some people say

No rest for the wicked

I say,

No rest for the blessed.

So much to be grateful for.

If we would only look

Take away the veil

From our eyes

And see

Hindsight is twenty twenty

But all we can do

Is learn from our mistakes.

When the grass is mowed right down

That’s when you will see the flower buds.

When the night is obtuse

That’s when you will see

The light transparent.

Sometimes,

When you feel trauma

You’re closest to peace.

Or realisation

To the fact

That it is time

To start appreciating yourself

And look at what you actually have.

As opposed to what you want

Or think you need.

Find the Lion’s Courage

That you didn’t know you had.

We don’t know what we have

Until we no longer have it.

So be mindful

And vividly imagine losing all that you have now

Absolutely everything, imagine.

So that you will be so grateful for what you do have.

If you think nothing good happens to you

Look in the detail

In the small things

The small things are what you ultimately need

And appreciating them will make the small things big

Not just in these dark times

But in all times

Never lose sight of your gratitude

And for all the wonderful things

That have happened to you

And are happening to you

And will happen to you

For there will be many

Among the chaos of life.

May Your Cup Overfloweth.

The Sun Will Shine Again…Soon.

The sun will shine again…soon

And then we will be happy

But we could happy right now

Instead of looking to some future day or time…

…that will ALLOW us to be happy.

If only…

if only this, that, or the other could happen/come true

THEN I’ll be happy

But no,

We only fool ourselves

If we cannot be happy

With what we have right now.

We will never be

So the sun will not shine again…soon.

It shines now.

Tier 3

Tears before bedtime

And Tears before tea

Tiers before lockdown

Tiers- one, two, three.

Tears, it will all end in

And Tiers they will make

Tears on my face

And not Tiers on a cake.

Tears like raindrops

Tiers are rules

Tears for release

And Tiers for fools.

Tears show we love

Tiers – our cage

Tears make us fear

Tiers keep us ‘safe’

Tears are emotion

Tiers leave us cold

Tears of our youth

Tiers getting old

Tears with friends

Tiers alone.

Tears with lovers

Tiers- at home.
