Entirely Different

Who ever settled for insomnia?
Are you crazy?
Something
Inches of life
Moments of happiness
Fleeting extraordinaries
Sometimes I don't want to live
(But I don't want to die)
I just want transcendent rest
It's not a futuristic wish
So why do I always forget my senses?
It burns my throat - and deeper
It happens life this:
....A Ladybug! If only...
They don't come around here anymore
Not like that - with nothing to hide
You will never be with the moon
At night. Response: provocatively positive
It's like - being happy; when you think:
"Why is it like that?" But when it is not
Actually like that and it is really something
Entirely different but you instantly understand
Why, like it's normal, and always has been;
What does that mean in the world?
I'm no bug, but I howl just the same,
And I die just the same. It's nothing
To worry about. It's not violence,
It's just echoing beauty, if you focus.

to some

Sacred to some...it's sacred to some
On days without doing or thinking
It can frighten, invigorate,
Intoxicate, and numb
It's a sacrifice of life
A sacrifice to life
If life lives through it
One can do nothing else

My girl, my girl - I hope you are well
I write you these words - I think of you now
I think of your smile - it makes me so well
I am grateful for you - you must know how

Lara Marie - what can't you be
Your allure with haste - it lured me so well
Your heart and strength - I know of more now
But Lara Marie - your smile: what can't it be

Your hair your eyes - and all I can see
Beauty itself - is jealous of thee!
(Sincere I am - though corny, likely)
Your smile I see, tonight - in absence of thee

This one last line - what can it be
But you, enough! - my Lara Marie
