On Love (Refrain)

Oft quoted poet
You can have those summer days

I cherish the darkness and the secrecy
Of a black-blue night

When you can see right through
Light's absence

Eyes reflecting eyes
Reflecting eyes

To one who asked how
Could forever be in a glance

Gift-wrapped soul
Ribbons of silver and black

For you

Unlike harmonizing angels
And the basic nature of god itself

More like raucous
Sometimes annoying

Your laugh
I would not trade

For beads or lands
Never a part without the whole

Struggling to be deeper
Than ancient minds

Or blood diamond mines
Trying to express

What I already understand

Calling the essence
Of what makes me a man

Wrap and trap the universe
Into a locket

Gently clasped
By somewhat nervous hands

Around your neck
Noose of forever

Pardon platitude
We die

Barnes, Silencio. "On Love (Refrain)." Eternal Figments of Reality.

Trader Joe's Knows

Trader Joe's Knows

In an empty hallway, I let my mental float Hoping

In an empty hallway, I let my mental float
Hoping that it reaches a so much better coast
I ask my fading hopes for the things I want the most
But it’s just an empty hallway, quiet as a ghost

Where did all my time go, where are all my folks
Caught up in day to day, or struggling I suppose
Where are all my old friends, they vanished in the smoke
Caught up in the hustle, or chasing after hoes

Maybe I’m just bitter cuz I feel I’m getting old
And the things I’m used to doing don’t do much for me no more
So, maybe I’ve been searching for that thing that makes my core glow
Maybe I’m just fooling myself, maybe I’m just bored though

Don’t ask about the future, cuz no one ever knows
They say they going somewhere, but no one ever goes
They claim they know the secret, but no one ever shows
Man, that secret they can keep it, I’m on another road

I’m driving in the fast lane, but they moving too slow
Everything is my way, it’s fucking up my flow
Poisoning my baby food, they don’t want me to grow
Please don’t think I’m greedy when I say I’m bout the dough

In an empty hallway, I let my mental float
Hoping that it reaches a so much better coast
I ask my fading hopes for the things I want the most
But it’s just an empty hallway, quiet as a ghost

Her Icy Touch, or, Hangin Out Front

I got demons on the inside telling me attack Demon

I got demons on the inside telling me attack
Demons on the outside riding on my back
Angels keep on falling tryna keep my ass on track
But my angels lack the gumption so they let me fade to black
They are not the reason this is not their fault
Sometimes I keep my feelings locked inside my vault
When I pull them out people seem to be appalled
So I gotta put them back in and switch to my default
The last time it was all good I really can’t recall
They say to keep your pride but that comes before the fall
They say if I need help all I gotta do is call
But when I make the call they say they can’t help at all so
They ask me if I love them, I keep them so enthralled
They ask me for my love but first I have to make them crawl
Sometimes I get so caught up I forget that it’s all false
It’s just another memory that plagues this empty hall

In an empty hallway, I let my mental float
Hoping that it reaches a so much better coast
I ask my fading hopes for the things I want the most
But it’s just an empty hallway, quiet as a ghost

Defying the Path

Defying the Path

Sometimes we fall - we don't choose it, Fail - an

Sometimes we fall - we don't choose it,
Fail - and stop moving
We go through Hell - and we lose it
Why? - ain't we improving,
Rise - through the excuses
We will prevail - we can do this

The other day my brother told he was feeling down
He said the worlds against him and it keeps him with a frown
Instead of giving options all it does is gives him pounds
Of an illicit substance and a coupla cartridge rounds

His daughter wants or needs it and he wants to make her proud
Proud to call him daddy so he does what he knows how
He knows the consequences if he fails or falls or bows
Because he fell before - and so he can't allow

The world to eat him up and spit him out, the time is now
He knows a better way is out there and he made a vow
That he would find it even if he thinks it can't be found
And that was so profound, I'm glad when he rebounds

You gotta listen to your brain and heart, not other sounds
You gotta stand and fight through it don't follow all the clowns
Cuz when the waters above your head and you think you'll drown
You gotta swim against the rising tide to reach the ground

Sometimes we fall - we don't choose it,
Fail - and stop moving
We go through Hell - and we lose it
Why? - ain't we improving,
Rise - through the excuses
We will prevail - we can do this
