It's hard to fly
When your wings are made of iron
It's hard to float
With this weight on your shoulders
While every one looks ahead
You watch their back
When every one sleeps
You're awake
Sometimes it's hard to connect
When someone new comes along
And you're worried they might be a threat
With wings of iron you might not be faster
But you are stronger
When every one leaves
You chose to stay
A Sheild, Guardian, Protector
All of these words describe who you are
When your wings are made of iron
It's hard to float
With this weight on your shoulders
While every one looks ahead
You watch their back
When every one sleeps
You're awake
Sometimes it's hard to connect
When someone new comes along
And you're worried they might be a threat
With wings of iron you might not be faster
But you are stronger
When every one leaves
You chose to stay
A Sheild, Guardian, Protector
All of these words describe who you are
Literature
consecrate
authenticity an arsenic
in morning coffee, in the smiles
pressed like ironed laundry,
because I feel like one wrong breath,
one wrong kiss between glossed lips and soft jaws
and I will be nailed to a cross
deception a shame rising like steam,
where teeth grind against each other
like clockwork gears, tick tick ticking
while the tongue kisses the roof of its cathedral
like a prayer to gods yet to be named
because her face is a mosaic window
shining the sin out of love
Literature
The Taste Of Sadness
What would sadness taste like?
Like the tears of a lost friend?
Like ashes as everything burns?
Like the last kiss before you left?
Literature
Breath Like Seawater
Your breath, like seawater frothing out, salty, sweet.
Gentle exhale, I hear waves on the beach
inhale, wind through the trees
dropping slowly, languidly
softly stopping
exploding
gone.

If you've ever driven a family member home who's had a little too much to drink, served in the military, or were just the responsible friend. There were times you might of felt over whelmed, taking care of others. I know I have, but that question always comes back to me. If you don't then who will ?
