Once upon a time there was a fire. It was kind of bad, lots of burning tire. We did our best to put it out but like the embers that never go out. The smoke that never fades. The sticky note that never unsticks. It just kept coming

But, giving up is not in our vocabulary.

We'll burn forever like the fire that smoulders. We'll keep on building. Building as we crumble. Like the tree that grows despite its branches flying off. Like the plane that flies, an engine down for the count. Like an old beaten down car. Broken. Rusted. Should stay home but can't. We'll keep going.

And one day we'll win.

Title: "Fool For Love"



i'm a fool for love
bright eyed and warm hearted
new to this world
wanting rainbows and sunshine
out I step

they say I'm a fool
I'll learn love's cold and distant
hardened by this world
you'll eventually get beaten
have to settle

I gave it a try
met a lovely, young girl
she was hardened by this world
together we made our rainbow
she's my sunshine now

Title: "This is where I belong"



A fun time
Since forever
Warm hugs and coffee
Just low on cash

So much cash
Nice and new
Cold stares and hunger
Stress Stress Stress

Prices go into the clouds
I can't keep up anymore
Its a steep steep hill

Dear Younger Self,

I hope I found you well, good sir. Thine accomplishments be great and well heard. You shine like the brightest star in the sky. You were the golden boy. I must say I possess a respect most dear about thee.



Your family remain in good standing. I must congratule thee most heartily about that. You really do run an exceptionally tight ship. I must say I am proud to be able to even call you my younger self.



Once again I hope this letter finds you well. Congratulations on such a wonderful achievement. You can look forward to more and more success, of this I can be certain. I shall take my leave then.



Yours, Most Sincerly
Older Self

PS. GET THE FUCK OUT

Its easy to have been
much harder to be seen
in among this rat race
and its unforgiving pace

Sometimes I wonder
If all I do is ponder
live my life quite and easy
I'll be forgotten and queasy

Should I make it rain
be in immense pain
will that earn me a plaque
and a pat on my back

But then again in the final void
money and plaques are null and void
your memories, your happiness last
and they'll be your familie's past

So keep it vibrant, keep it nice
don't lose it to unforgiving lice
the rat race moves on fast
but family and friendships last
