The Ironic lives of dreamers. Stage 1. First Act- 'Alternate'

We sat beside a pond together
Holding hands as the sunlight gently grazed us and we dipped our feet wet
I looked at her mesmerized and I think she saw in my eyes as she looked into them
My version of her.
She seemed beautiful, I think even to her

We heard a noise and turned around.
And he was there my loyal old friend.
He waved hello and the others followed
They all had good things to say
The mood seemed perfect as the music filled the air
Someone had got stereo

We sat together like flowers in a garden
Traded stories back and forth
One spoke of love and the other of gain
And together happiness plagued the air

Then suddenly a rumbling we heard
Funny we'd never heard anything quite like it
We even craned our necks to see
But all we saw was a peaceful road..
One that looked promising and treaded with dreams
We ignored the rumbling and together we sat for the longest time
And we drank together and cherished every sip of our wine

The area seemed perfect. As always.Like always
And then again came the rumbling....'
But we were to happy and in a trance
as we all stood up to dance

I had her. She had me. I pulled her close
We had each other. We realized together,
It never took us time you see.
We had them too....our closest friends
Like a family we loved and together were free.

My life the peaceful dream.

The House of Mirrors


I could tell you how this parody works
Joke about it, until you choke
Pale face you appear, like you've seen a ghost in the mirror
See what I did there? You can take it anyway you want
Make it stop now
Ooh what a rush
Make it work now, this shits got flush

Damn didn't know it works out like this
Once upon a time there was supposed to be a happily ever after
Then they came and ruined it, the trash talkin martyrs
So when I stare into your eyes you seem confused
Like the bright lights of Vegas in your blood infused
Miserable teachers , teach misery
Mel Gibson's a jackass , who knew?
Bravehearts can be portrayed and enacted to fool you

So I call upon you to a house of mirrors
Can you bear yourself staring back at you?
Will you open your eyes and look around
Or will you like me try and break them all?.. smash them silly?
Would you curse at yourself until you whimper
Or would you be a coward and go easy on yourself?

To move along you gotta answer to yourself
The others are there, just for the show
You have yourself to face. You. Your judge , jury and execution
This carnival and its ruckus
Everyone roams in the circus bus...

But I call upon you to the house of mirrors,
Where you and I and me and us and those different versions of us....
We'll all have a chat.....


But don't worry......
We'll carry bricks just in case

Valentine's Day

Somethings you can only paint
Somethings you can only imagine
Somethings fit
Somethings enter into a deal to create perfection
Somethings bring music to silence
Somethings bring silence to chaos

And somethings however old the story, have always been worth writing about.

For years I've sat like an eager child at the edge of the chair
Waiting to jump up in hurrah!!
These fleeting moments with images of perfection my eyes have been forced to see
Seem at times fading and sometimes glowing
Either way it has my attention
Follow your heart is promising advice
And alas also so tempting
Ive always done that mind you
My heart and I with hope for company

There have been several fleeting moments that I have experienced
That perhaps make it all worthwhile
There are tiny events that everyone could miss...But I will notice
Because its relevant to my heart
In the matters of the heart, nothing is to be taken lightly
We are here for a short while ...and even if we don't find a happy ending
If you have the capacity to love....then love.
Love with everything you are and love completely, without regret
Love like you want to.
Love like you choose to.

Its been long. Its been true. It must all be real. This world I've created.
It's been a while, My reason to smile
You must be real.
You must be true...
How else could I explain it.
Too good to be true

It's been long. Its been true. There's no justifying.
You must be real.
Unreal you.
