Absent Minded
Laws of attraction
I never rejected the world
It spins out of control
I hold on
as it swallows my soul
I bite my tongue
as it swallows yours
sometimes I curse the day
I was born
Some days I rejoice
the footsteps i follow
but as I tread these waters
sometimes I spit
sometimes I wallow
sometimes I choke
and i choke a lot
sometimes I drown
sometimes I;m pulled under
and slip by the knot
tied on the bottom
I'm hanging onto
As the world Shuns me
as I'm punished
for the ways of society
as I'm thrown away
everyday creatively
as I'm turned away
just for being me
I dread to hear
what you believe
I fear to tell you
what I clearly see
Sometimes I swim
sometimes I'm on the level
sometimes i taint my love
and poison my prayers
sometimes i feel
i feel too too much
like I'm the only one
the only one who truly cares
When I wake from my dreams
to find myself
living in this nightmare trap
calling it reality
I'm too full of pride
too full of humility
to scream
When I dream
When I'm awake
I think It's all I we need
I think we all deserve a turn
to be some symbol
of some form of tragedy
wether love or other beauty
When reason kicks in
and my scattered thoughts
look into the order
and i have control over
my tongue
I stop speaking in circles
say what needs to be heard
and that leaves us stuck
running from the beginning
If only i could understand the lessons of my self
made prison of thoughts
and the powers of attraction that rule this universe
I'd rewrite everything
rethink a strategy and acclaim my place among the doom and gloom
and steer us out of danger
in the nick of time to look like a hero
be paid to be loved and have fun
and never reject the positive
and acquire the assumptions
the universe and I are filling the pool
I will be swimming in
Striking out the negative thoughts to cast them out
to reflect the cynical world in my mind
that i find later down the path of life
where is the mirror of good fortune i need
to look inside my heart and soul
to find the true love and beauty of a life long partnership
that never grows or spoils but strengthens chains of universal law
like attracts like
and what controls my thought i place those illusions around me
will i sink or will i swim
and when i understand such a simple,e silly game
will the nice guy still finish last?
lose his 4 inches on his waist ?
get a chest for his metals?
marry the man of his dreams and be respected while on such high pedestals?
the laws of attraction that rule the universe from objects i buy
and receive for my birthdays and Christmas
how to put the negative away
understand its just a breeding ground for hurdles
and one day
in my day dreaming mind
all these crazy poems will have an element to prophecy in my life
all because like attracts like
and sometimes the cynicism and negativity circles back
and then barks at me its reminder
while i bandage its bite
The laws of the universe
is somehow a simple math
how do you fathom the unfathomable like Jesus
speak it and have it make sense
and then have it celebrated and not some joke for endless laughs?
what consumes your thoughts turns into things
It spins out of control
I hold on
as it swallows my soul
I bite my tongue
as it swallows yours
sometimes I curse the day
I was born
Some days I rejoice
the footsteps i follow
but as I tread these waters
sometimes I spit
sometimes I wallow
sometimes I choke
and i choke a lot
sometimes I drown
sometimes I;m pulled under
and slip by the knot
tied on the bottom
