Kaleidoscope Eyes


Kaleidoscope eyes,
Easy to get lost in.
Tried to run,
They both did.
But it’s a kind of love that makes you
Surrender your defenses.
Admit when you’re wrong
Makes you want to be a better person.
See it in a different light,
It could all be worth it.
Lets just work with it.
Expand each other’s minds,
Live a life with a purpose.
It may take a little time,
A little trust,
To find out what will come from this.
But I know you’ve changed my life,
A new inspired love for the little things,
That turned into bigger forces,
That are more than us.
I’ve seen in you,
What I want for myself.
But don’t get me twisteddd
This is who I’ve always been.
I just think with you by my side,
With our backs to the wind,
Never looking behind…
The possibilities could be endlessss.
Kaleidoscope eyes,
That reflect the different lives
We’ve grown up in.
But both outsiders looking
For a life with a real perspective…
Always changing,
That’s why with you I know we can find it.
Realign our minds in it.
In a place where tranquility remains,
Free ourselves from what we may see as restraints.
Beyond what we are now,
What we could be,
With a promise to never stop learning.
Just look deep into my kaleidoscope eyes,
You’d be surprised what you will finddd....

Rain


"Rain"
Rain pouring down
For weeks it seems
Though you may hate it
It’s the beauty I see
And hear
To me it’s all become the same
Taking in the sights
Strong senses remain
From countless nights
Appreciating nature and our creator
This life is beautiful
Even on days like this
Reminding us of all the things
That are out of our hands
If you learn to embrace it
You’ll find the greatness in our land
Green grass doesn’t grow
Animals don’t eat
The human race
Remains unchanged
Wrapped up in a society
That has forgot to appreciate the little things,
Like rain.
As it drips down my face,
I look up to see the sun
Surfacing through the overcast sky
I say a little prayer to bring the light
But can’t complain 
Not today
Life is too sweet and short
Not to appreciate the small things,
Like the rain drops,
And the good things they bring.
