Gandhi

You storm out the door like it's my fault.

And maybe you're right, maybe it is my fault, but it's also yours.

Now there isn't anything else to say.

We've both come to an understanding, and as you leave my life, I crumble.

I've asked myself thousand of times "When will we own ourselves completely?"

I never get an answer of course, but I can't help but question it.

Why did this happen?

Why can't we ever learn?

When will we ever learn?

Life goes on however.

Even though we don't learn from our mistakes and instead blame one another,  we continue to live our lives.

You don't recall, but I do.

I remember you and me.

I keep forgetting that we are not together anymore.

I keep forgetting that time cannot turn back and that I must move on.

But my depression grows darker and darker.

This world seems to crack and fall apart around me.

No one is there to help me.  Save me.  Love me.

Then I recall, tonight is not the last time I'll see the light.

Live for the Future

This is for the boxers.


This is for the wrestler.

Who fight for their dreams.

This is for the police officer that pulls you over only to let you go.

This is for the firemen.

This is for the teachers. English. Spanish. Japan-ish.

Live for the future.

This is for the people who laugh when they embarrass themselves.

This is for the ones who hold a grudge and can't let it go.

This is for the person who caused you to have a grudge.

Live for the future.

This is for the mexicans who cross the boarder.

Not because they sell drugs, but because they want to live the american dream.

This is for the ones who don't care.

This is for the ones who can't look you in the eyes.  The face.

Live for the future.

This is for the animal lovers.

People lovers.

Chocolate lovers.

This is for the righteous people.  The peacemakers.

This is for you.

Live for the future.

This is for the big dog that has a gentle nature.

For the small dog that wants to protect.

This is for the book that gathers dust, but still waits patiently.

Or the move still on pause.

Live for the future.

This is for you.

You never know when the world will end, or how life will come together, but you must anticipate your life to come.  Jobs will change, love will come and go, but you have to go on.  And even though you can't see how your life makes sense and you don't believe that you will have a future, just continue day by day, and live for the future.
