COFFEE DREAM


COFFEE DREAM

S.JENSEN (C) 2017

CHAINS HANGING FROM

ONE WORLD TO THE NEXT

THE CHAINS WHICH

BOUND TIGHT

ALL FALL AWAY

AS COLOURS FADE

AND CHAINS RUST

AND MY LOVE NOW

RESTS

THE RIDE DONE GOOD

AS THREE DAYS

OF EMOTIONS FLOW

THROUGH MY BRAIN

AS THE PAIN

OF HOW WRONG

PEOPLE CAN BE

WHEN MISREADING

MY HEARTFELT WORDS

OH TO MY CHILD

NOW GROWN

WITH HER BELOVED

THE TWO PEOPLE

I LOVE MOST IN THIS WORLD

IN THE HIGHER LOVE

THAT ETERNAL SPOT

MY GRACE CARRIES

FORWARD

LETTING THE PAIN

OF UNKNOWN EYES

REPLACING MEANINGS

AS OLD LOVES

PASS IN THE NIGHT

FIRES DIE TO EMBERS

WITHIN AND WITHOUT

THE SPACES OF EVERYONE

OUR LINKS ALL FALL APART

TRAVELING SOMEWHERE

AS THERE'S STILL

NOTHING HOLDING ME

HERE

YET I FOLLOW

MY WAY

AND TO MY MUSE

FRIEND

OH THE SADNESS

WHICH IS SHARED

AND FLOWN AWAY

WITH MY CURRENT

ACHE LOST

LOVE ALWAYS

PASSES ME BY

AND ANGER REPLACED

IN A SPACE

I JUST REFUSED

TO EXCEPT THAT

OTHERS SO MALICE

IN THOUGHT JUST

HAD TO TRY TO

PREVENT

TO MANTRAS

CENTERING THIS SOUL

SOMEWAY

SOMEHOW

I WILL FIND A WAY

TO OVERCOME ALL

THE PAST

ALL THE PRESENT

AS I WALK INTO

THE UNKNOWN

OF TOMORROW

HURT BEYOND HURT

YET NO REGRETS

SOMETHING IRONIC

I KNOW NOW

WHERE MY MOM

SAT YEARS AGO

WHEN I WALKED AWAY

SOME THINGS

CARRY ON

AS OTHERS

PENETRATE THIS

VERY LONELY WAY

OF LIFE

IT WAS A CHOICE

TO SAVE AND I WOULD

DO IT AGAIN

AS I COULD TO BE DONE

SO WRONG

IN THE PASSING

OF TIME

MY EARTHLY SIDE

BINDS ME

WHERE AS MY

WATER JUG

FLOWS ALWAYS

AS THE SIGN IS AIR

AND AIR IS TO THE WATER

VICE VERSA

BACK AROUND TO

KNOW THYSELF

AS OTHERS SO MISPERCEIVE

NOT ABLE TO EAT

OR THINK ON MUCH

ELSE BUT ONES

MORTALITY

IN OUR ONE LIFE

BEFORE THE END

AND THE AFTER LIFE

CARRIES US TO

THE SPOT OF REINCARNATION

SOMEDAYS I THINK

IT IS JUST HOW IT IS

MY CLOSEST FRIEND

ASKED IF I COULD HELP

HIM FIND BALANCE

I SAID CERTAINLY

THROUGH A SPIRIT

JOURNEY YET CHANGES

IN YOU MUST BECOME

AND LIFESTYLE CHANGES

YET WILL HE FOLLOW

PROBABLY NOT

I KNOW HIM TO WELL

AND TO THOSE I WALKED

AWAY FROM AS THEY

WALKED AWAY FROM ME

ALL OUR THOUGHTS

REST IN MEMORIES

NOW

AS I LISTEN TO

MUSIC SOOTHING

MY ACHE

TO ACCEPT THIS

LONELY ROAD

I NOW TRAVEL ON

DON'T SEEM I HAVE

MUCH CHOICE

IN THIS MATTER

FRACTAL LIGHTS

GLOWING IN MY

GLASSES BLIND

AS MUCH AS MY

HEART HAS BEEN

I DECIDE TO LET GO

JUST LET GO

CAUSE I HAVE

NO OTHER CHOICE

NOW

OFF TO SLUMBER

I GO FOR TO DREAM

PASS THE COFFEE

OF MY MUTTLED MIND

THE DAYS ALL RUN

TOGETHER AND I TRY

TO FIND PURPOSE TO

LEAVE THE HURT

BEHIND

TEARS STOP

FALLING AS

CHANGES NOW

REST MY SOUL.
