Say we end the heartache

The future is where we belong
The present seems so bleak
Listening to the same songs
Watching those films
And reading from that bard

Say we end the heartache
And the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to?
To die-
To sleep , ay! Perchance to dream

There are those who are lucky
There are those who are unlucky
Some unlucky ones fight hard
Some unlucky ones don't fight at all
Blaming fate and curse it

Should I stop listening to those songs?
Or boycott Ashton Kutcher films
Or stop reading Shakespeare and Keats
And take up Hemingway
And watch the news , instead?

Maybe ...
But it wouldn't be exciting
It wouldn't be dramatic
And I wouldn't have to feel empty
I wouldn't have to feel

Sometimes it feels like , a broken toy
A wound in your mouth
That your tongue always retreats to
Say we end the heartache?
It is a consumation devoutly to be wished.

The Porcupine Principle

When two people decide to
Sacrifice
There's going to be a little discomfort
It's going to be painful
When two people have nothing else
But take the initial step
We don't really know very much
Because we don't understand what's going on
Why do a lot of people start of right
Then break up?
Why not try the porcupine principle?

Battery

Where there is a heart
That runs on no flattery
Finds a dead battery

If the law of the universe
Relied on energy , matter and force
What would we have?

There are few of us who
Are lucky to be secure in love
And the latter?

If we got all we ever wanted
What would be the point
Of waking up the next day?

If my words would grant me clarity
I'd write everyday
And overpass my vanity

This battery of mine
Is no longer fine
Why is this always the line?

For a heart
That lives on no flattery
Is a dead battery .

Sparrow

 For when you lay eyes
On a Sparrow
You are well aware
That you can never own a
Sparrow

Instead we fill our
Minds and thoughts
Of flying high
With them
Above the clouds

The love for a sparrow
Is strong
But beware
They will sprout wings and
Fly away

I am no sparrow
My feet are
Firmly on the ground
Yet my eyes
Look to the horizon

Sparrow,
When you fly with the eagles
When you've had your fill
I hope you find your way
Back to me. 

The Wounded

The broken ones
You know them?
You see them
Have you met them ?

The ones
That need the most
Taking care of
The lost ones

The wounded ones
Because truth
Be told 
I am also one of them
