To A Listener...

Happiness is found through the simplest of pleasures,
A smile,
A laugh,
Music…
All things that make our lives complete…
Friendship comes and goes like ships at a harbor,
But an anchor keeps them stable…
A lighthouse brings them back home,
To the hearts of their friends,
Through hardships,
Through loneliness,
Through sadness,
The waters will never be the bridge,
To separate,
Heart from home…
Like magnets,
No matter how far you retract,
You come back together –
Simply,
To protect -
With the very strings that keep you together…
Help to save another -
From themselves,
Being the shelter from the rain,
Bringing a smile to the tears,
Being a listener to the words…
Thank you …

Dedicated to Taka Imoto - A tennis playing, guitar strumming, listener with a heart of happiness and smiles <3 :)

Love or infatuation

I see the people around me
becoming engulfed by the feeling of love and infatuation
they become hurt
they become confused
they become lost...
all I can do is listen to their pain
listen
listen
somethings cannot be repaired by simple words
somethings cannot be cured by the medicine man
somethings cannot be changed by actions taken
all that can happen is to wait
but the pain of waiting is excruciating
in reality it is not simple
it is not favorable
It is heart wrenching
and indescribable
I cannot explain the pain
to be heartbroken
to be infatuated
to be as lonesome as one who is
the only one who feels enough for both
I would create a parachute to catch you when you fall
cause that's how I am
but the intensity of the fall
depends on how close you have gotten to the sky
the closer you are the longer the fall
the more lost and light headed you get
from being too far off the ground
I want to ground you and lead you towards your desire
but the need you have for your first love is overpowering
there Is another who may capture your heart
if you let it so...
I understand your mind is confused
your heart is unpredictable
but you are noble
let yourself become who you are
don't extend far heights for someone who does not appreciate you
you are far more inclined to have someone fall for you
and give the space in their heart to you
cause they truly care...
they truly love
the side of which you show to others and yourself
the glow of you
has transfixed their gaze
could you let them in and let them love
the one you are and the one others see you as
is the same
a hopeless romantic you may be
but it might be time for someone to love you back...
to be there when you need
that hand to hold and intertwine with
the warmth of a hug from someone of love
you needn't be strong forever with this love you hold onto...
the sunshine that comes after a year of rain
illuminates the happiness that has long to be discovered...
