some of them my own
ain't it just like the song
to play tricks with the sound
thinking present moment
wonderful moment
grateful for the day
and all that will be around
the idea that sprung from within
energy saved days
for when spring will begin
cold rain & ice mock
the plans drawn out on pages
listening to the laughter
as it hits the early leaves
nothing concluded now
and at other ages
box of old books immortal
writers never known
new copies old thoughts
some of them my own

time stands still again
twelve years ago
almost as if time stands still
it passes and we can prove it
memories and pictures
how many will honor
how many will forget
as if it never mattered
to begin with what is this life
confusion and beautiful chaos
how do we silence the mind
enjoy the breath
sit in the sun and feel the energy
try not to let the thoughts escape
without being noticed
where do they come from
is there a central source
producing the thoughts
to be received
do they come from within
the wrinkles of the mind
built from our experiences

beginning of the new
the focal point can be where it is most needed
give me strength words spoken by mother
sits with me forever now
forever young no matter how many days since
or until some understanding is reached
up higher without the ladder
last time fallen hit every rung
even when the sun is unseen
it's there for if it wasn't day
it would be called night
and darkness would be a void
which is it tonight, thought
or receiver no one seems to care
too much and never has time to contemplate
the floating thoughts and how they became
the ladder stood upon last time fallen
missed every step now standing
feet firmly grounded
remembering a first assignment and
how it was crushed next breath could very well be
beginning of the new season

only correct if it matches
trying to stay ahead of the persecutor within
the thin walls surrounded by nothing but thoughts
but there is no mind
the thought and receiver at the same time
how are we supposed to make sense of its ridiculousness
at times thinking we have it figured out
if we follow the truth what else can there be
here now and no where else
only a matter of time before night
time comes creeping in as the light creeps out
lining the clouds as if slowly sliding overhead
as it does every single day without fail
the circle of life has a lot more meaning
than they ever wanted us to believe
couldn't even imagine today as a child
give me strength to understand somehow
the meaning of words on a page
or just one word
universe expanding but only if we truly understand
the clock above
wherever you might stand
not unlike the clock in the kitchen
only correct if it matches
