When the tears won't fall
Instead they well up in your eyes and haunt you
And once they finally make their appearance
Your foreign to the wetness
Like the memory of what once was
Or what was not
Simply what you thought
When the mind is your enemy
You count the days from when you met
Now that and all days in between you wish to forget
Music doesn't sound the same
Dancing is without rhythm
Food has no taste
When God only listens, but does not respond
When your friends are too busy
Dad is working and you can't find mom
When joy does not come in the morn
and the moon is not as full
When you feel your heart breaking and still maintain your cool
When you are hungry but just can't eat
When you are thirsty but will not drink
When silence is too loud
When you wake up realizing you've been living a lie
Not by way of deceit, rather a truth you created in your own mind
You feel you've lost your pulse
You reek of uncertainty and sadness
When it grows into sorrow, manifesting madness
Flowers have lost their beauty
The stars are not as bright
When alone feels like lonely
And your vices are pacifying
When you feel that love hates me

When what was will never be again
It's this kind of thinking that brings our beginnings to an end.
The journey just started
let the adventures begin
but don't let the past be the means that now justifies your ends.
What most of think we are conscious of are just variations of experiences we thought we learned from or let go
Reoccuring issues blinded by new faces and new molds. It's so hard to resolve a problem from the outside looking in
Or waking up just to know you were sleep and your now is actually what was then.
Joy always comes in the morning and God always responds, even to our most silent cries
We could see the blessings
if we would just remove the scales from our eyes.
Maybe the next time we look for clarity or seek advice
we should be evenly yolked with our counsel and please exclude the vice.
I have to end this now with a simple plea
If you have one without the other you always be tossed side to side like a wave in the sea.
"As soon as I stop worrying, worrying how the story ends, when I let go and let god have his way, that's when things start happening, when i stop looking at back then, when I let go and I let god, let god have his way"
Amen, brother. Amen!!!
